They should remake this one for the people who like feet.

The reviews from IMDB are very critical of the series too- 1/10 Amazingly Superficial film_poster_fan19 August 2019 I have seen all six episodes and, while none of the previous ones were very good, this sadly was the worst. It began poorly by dismissing the silent era of films in a one minute discussion and then moving on to the films of the 1930s through the 1950s. Two hours for three decades of countless classics? When the documentary feels the need to identify actors like Humphrey Bogart and Clark Gable, you feel your intelligence being insulted. Films like Citizen Kane, Casablanca, and The Searchers were discussed in a total of five minutes, perhaps. Like the the other episodes, this seems very superficial and uninformative. 6/10 They Just Bit Off Too Much Hitchcoc20 August 2019 To take the first fifty or so years of film in less than two hours is a hopeless task. And, unfortunately, the footage was some of the same old tired stuff that is seen over and over. Citizen Kane got a little treatment, but not much. When one looks at 1939, we see the most amazing set of films ever produced as a whole. How can you do justice to that. The decade by decade effort of the previous episodes had all they could do to do justice. This one was just too superficial. It's as if they didn't want to ignore most of the work and decided to throw this in.

No.

Did they do that for the clips in the other episodes? I only saw the Golden era episode.

I wish they would interview Liv Ullmann and Max Von Sydow. It would have been good to do one for Liv while she had a day of programming.

I think there was a Three Stooges short where a kid had a gun and shot it at the burglars.

Liv and Max's characters are the only real ones on the deserted island, the rest are all hallucinations or ghosts in their imagination. At the end of the film, Liv explains that couples who live together begin taking on each other's physical and mental characteristics and rationalizes that she has gone crazy. I've always felt that similar to Fellini, Bergman's characters were inspired by real people he knew. Veronica Volger in particular was probably influenced by one of his affairs (in the movie it is stated that Von Sydow and Veronica created a "scandal" with their affair). The character influenced by Papageno probably represents unfulfilled love and yearning which the character expresses in the Mozart opera. It might just be me but I also felt the kid in swimming wear who sports a feminine type pose next to Von Sydow represented a suppressed childhood pedophilic or homosexual memory or something of the sort. That is how I rationalized that scene anyway. With Von Sydow pushing the kid into the water similar to pushing the memory back into his subconscious. Whatever you take from it, it is a beautiful film.

You're upset that a kid used a gun in a movie? I don't get it. It doesn't sound much worse than anything you've seen in the Home Alone movies. How is it "disturbing"? Is Home Alone disturbing too?

Also besides no silents, there were no foreign films either. The only ones I saw discussed were Hitchcock's early British films like the Lodger and Riefenstahl's Triumph of the Will.

I saw the episode on Studio era Hollywood. It's an okay doc if you have never seen any film from the era before but for most of us, it probably isn't as in depth as we would have liked. You can only discuss a certain amount in two hours anyway.

Did you at least like the soundtrack? I thought this piece was beautiful.

Did the series even cover anything from before the fifties? I don't think any silent films were covered in the series at all.

Sorry you didn't like it. I thought it was funny and a good satire of the Holocaust and WWII. I also thought it had great camera work (particularly the scene where the Jewish ceremony and the Nazi collaborator speaking to Kropfkringl are shown through one continuous shot).

Yes.

This one is one of my favorites too. Bergman's fears, loves, emotions, etc. are portrayed through both Liv and Max's characters. My favorite imagery is the creepy scene of the old woman removing her eyeballs and face. I found that very disturbing. I also liked the "winged" host inspired by Papageno from the Magic Flute. I found him both dark and humorous.

Thus Spoke Zarathustra (1990) Max von Sydow as Zarathustra Gerard Depardieu as the Pope Mike Anderson as the Dwarf Dolph Lundgren as the Ubermensch Directed by Ingmar Bergman

Higgins did seem like a bit of a fruit. It is hard to imagine the lower class Eliza would actually want someone as dainty and bourgeois as him. It's better that in the original play they don't get together. It kind of misses the point.

The kids might have also just thought she was a bit butch.

He looks like he would be a huge dweeby "soyboy" if he were alive today. Hardly hip or cool in any way.

10 pm- 4 am would also be the perfect time to show Hour of the Wolf. 1 am is "Vargtimmen" after all.

Franco Nero

It doesn't say. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jane_Pirie https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marianne_Woods "I am utterly ignorant of what was laid to my charge and I am not conscious of anything," Marianne Woods told one mother.[5] It was purely slander against them though, certainly.

In the original case, none of them were lesbians. They were both straight and the rumor was slander by the little girl.

Yeah, it was speculated in the other thread that he might be either a troll or just a bit "out there."
