Saturday, October 25, 2014. The Trial of Joan of Arc 1961. Serenity is achieved by such exclusions of the superfluous. Sound effects- a key turning in a lock, the sound made by a chain, a gun shot- play an important part in his composition. Labels: Bresson: Trial Joan Arc. Wednesday, October 22, 2014. Labels: Lust for Life. Monday, October 20, 2014. Friday, October 17, 2014. The Devil, probably.1977. Labels: Bresson: The Devil. Wednesday, October 15, 2014. Monday, October 13, 2014.

Tuesday, May 26, 2015. Don Kikhot 1957.Kozhintsev. This is a nostalgic gem from the Soviet Era. Don Quixote. Step out into the world and look about you.Those who seek power climb upover dead bodies,like over stairs.The greedy kill for a farthing.The slanderers sting their kindred like vipers. I wanted only one thing:To do good to everybody and wrong no one. And it is me whom you're reviling. For shame, monk! Friday, May 8, 2015. Thursday, May 7, 2015. Last Days in Vietnam.2014.

Onlyne: The Grapes of Wrath 1940 (John Ford)
http://smrana.blogspot.com/2015/06/the-grapes-of-wrath-1940-john-ford.html
Thursday, June 18, 2015. The Grapes of Wrath 1940 (John Ford). Three quarters down the film, I recalled (disappointingly) having seen it before. The movie, set in a different place and time, and so acclaimed, did not move me half as much, its elemental force notwithstanding. Labels: The Grapes of Wrath. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
