ABOUT ABOUT

In what remains the most obscure, bizarre, and wildly misunderstood film of her entire career—and perhaps even 1970s Italian cinema—Identikit (aka The Driver's Seat) stars Elizabeth Taylor as a disturbed woman who arrives in Rome to find a fragmented city. From there, Taylor navigates autocratic law, leftist violence, and her own increasingly unhinged mission to find the most dangerous liaison of all. Academy Award® nominee Ian Bannen (The Offence), Mona Washbourne (The Collector) and Andy Warhol co-star in this hallucinatory neo-noir, which was photographed by three-time Oscar® winner Vittorio Storaro (Apocalypse Now, The Last Emperor). Newly restored in 4K by Cinematheque of Bologna and Severin Films! (Giuseppe Patroni Griffi, Italy, 1974, 102 min.)
