Man, Pride and Vengeance (1968) Movies

Posted by Someonelse at Dec. 3, 2010

Luigi Bazzoni's "L'Uomo L'Orgoglio, La Vendetta" aka. "Man, Pride & Vengeance" is a quite original little film, as it narrates the story of the famous opera/novel "Carmen" in the style of a Spaghetti Western. Contrary to the common belief, however, this movie is actually not (originally) a Western. The film, which originally takes place in 19th century Spain, was made a Spaghetti Western in the German language version (and in the English version) by simply changing the plot. Spain becomes Mexico in these versions of the movie, and that's why this film that is often incorrectly referred to as a Western. The plot makes a lot more sense when the movie is regarded in is original context.

Tess (1979) [The Criterion Collection] Movies

Posted by RSU75 at July 28, 2021

This multiple-Oscar-winning film by Roman Polanski is an exquisite, richly layered adaptation of Thomas Hardy’s Tess of the d’Urbervilles. A strong-willed peasant girl (Nastassja Kinski, in a gorgeous breakthrough) is sent by her father to the estate of some local aristocrats to capitalize on a rumor that their families are from the same line. This fateful visit commences an epic narrative of sex, class, betrayal, and revenge, which Polanski unfolds with deliberation and finesse. With its earthy visual textures, achieved by two world-class cinematographers—Geoffrey Unsworth (Cabaret) and Ghislain Cloquet (Au hasard Balthazar)—Tess is a work of great pastoral beauty as well as vivid storytelling.

(Sergio LEONE) For a Few Dollars More [DVDrip] 1965

Director Sergio LEONE
Music Ennio MORRICONE

Cast/Avec Clint Eastwood, Lee Van Cleef, Gian-Maria Volonte, Klaus Kinski …

Eastwood (marketed as the "Man with No Name") and Van Cleef (as Colonel Douglas Mortimer and marketed as "The Man in Black") portray two bounty hunters in pursuit of "El Indio" (Gian Maria Volontè), one of the most wanted fugitives in the western territories, and his gang (one of whom is played by Kinski). Indio is a ruthless, intelligent man addicted to smoking cannabis. He has a musical pocketwatch that he plays whenever he wishes to kill someone. "When the chimes finish, begin," he says, and sure enough when the music stops he shoots his victim. Through flashbacks we learn that Indio's pocketwatch (and perhaps cannabis addiction) originates from a young woman who killed herself while being raped by Indio, after Indio finds her with her lover and kills him out of jealousy.

Deux chasseurs de primes (Eastwood et Van Cleef) traquent un pilleur de banques extrêmement dangereux (Volonte). Après "Pour une poignée de dollars", ce deuxième épisode de la trilogie qui s'achèvera avec "Le Bon, la Brute et le Truand" n'est pas une suite mais met en scène le même genre de personnages animés par un seul appât, celui du gain. L'univers reste le même : les grands espaces sont filmés à la loupe (à Almeria, en Espagne), les dialogues n'excèdent jamais l'essentiel, l'humour joue la noirceur, la sensualité est morbide et l'indispensable Ennio Morricone s'applique à ponctuer toute l'histoire de sa petite mélodie envoûtante. Sergio Leone, pourtant, implique davantage ses personnages : la relation entre Eastwood et Van Cleef est loin d'être vaine, les codes d'honneur sont omniprésents et l'amitié n'est pas loin. En plus de celle de Lee Van Cleef, véritable gueule du cinéma américain, on signalera la présence de l'acteur allemand Klaus Kinski qui affichait d'emblée un génie insolent et un visage inoubliable.

Paris, Texas (1984) - (The Criterion Collection - #501) [2 DVD9] [2010] Movies

Posted by evaristegalois at Feb. 25, 2010

New German Cinema pioneer Wim Wenders (Wings of Desire) brings his keen eye for landscape to the American Southwest in Paris, Texas, a profoundly moving character study written by Pulitzer Prize–winning playwright Sam Shepard. Paris, Texas follows the mysterious, nearly mute drifter Travis (a magnificent Harry Dean Stanton, whose face is a landscape all its own) as he tries to reconnect with his young son, living with his brother (Dean Stockwell) in Los Angeles, and his missing wife (Nastassja Kinski). From this simple setup, Wenders and Shepard produce a powerful statement on codes of masculinity and the myth of the American family, as well as an exquisite visual exploration of a vast, crumbling world of canyons and neon.
