Rocco and His Brothers
Rocco and His Brothers () is a 1960 Italian film directed by Luchino Visconti, inspired by an episode from the novel "Il ponte della Ghisolfa" by Giovanni Testori. Set in Milan, it tells the story of a migrant family from the South and its disintegration in the society of the industrial North. The title is a combination of Thomas Mann's "Joseph and His Brothers" and the name of Rocco Scotellaro, an Italian poet who described the feelings of the peasants of southern Italy.

The film stars Alain Delon, Renato Salvatori, Annie Girardot, and Claudia Cardinale in one of her early roles before she became internationally known. The score was composed by Nino Rota.
