<br>DVD review by Gary Morris</font>
<font size=3 face="Book Antiqua,Century Schoolbook,Times New Roman">
<p>Visconti made only 14 features in his career, along with a few contributions to omnibus movies such as <i>Boccaccio 70</i>, but access to them has been surprisingly spotty given his generally high standing in film history. His first feature, <i>Ossessione </i>(1942)<i>, </i>was initially banned by a scandalized Church and fascist censors. Visconti appealed to Mussolini, who is reported to have liked <i>Ossessione </i>and passed it with a few cuts.
