| Death of Venice |
Film historian Lawrence J. Quirk wrote, in his study, The
Great Romantic Films (1974),
"Some shots of Björn Andrésen, the Tadzio of the film, could be extracted
from the frame and hung on the walls of the Louvre or the Vatican in Rome." He
says Andrésen did not represent just a pretty youngster as an object of
perverted lust, but that novelist Mann and director-screen writer Visconti
intended him as a symbol of beauty in the realm of Michelangelo's David or Da Vinci's Mona Lisa."
In 2011, writer Will Aitken published Death in
Venice: A Queer Film Classic, a critical analysis the film, as part of Arsenal Pulp Press's Queer Film Classics series.
