Rossellini's three-part The age of the Medici is like a Renaissance painting come to life: a portrait of fifteenth-century Florence, ruled by the Medici political dynasty. Focuses on two of the city's leading citizens: banker Cosimo de' Medici and art theorist Leon Battista Alberti. With a lovely score by composer Manuel De Sica (son of Vittorio), this grand yet intimate work is a storybook conjuring of a way of life and thought.--Container
