Fragment from the film "Tsar Ivan the Terrible"
Review
And here is a film about Ivan the Terrible. Moreover, according to "Silver Prince". I love this story, and watched with great interest this screen version (there is a second, it still was not looking).
In the film two minuses. With that, the film perfectly revealed almost all the images, the image of the king is "swimming". Whether nedoprodumali interpretation, whether the actor implementation problems directing task. Half of the phrases he utters not the tone, sometimes the motivation for his actions is extremely vague, and even incomprehensible, he served there as a mentally ill person, or is that his vision - just a dream or a metaphor. The second disadvantage - lack of whole idea is just filming the story of Tolstoy. "Duplicity," the king and fool for a full idea still does not pull.
It seems to be seriously flawed, but still I liked the movie.
The story, with the exception of the final, recorded a surprisingly complete (minus a couple of scenes). No special stupidities, sets and costumes did not look cheap, and the film is surprisingly not boring. The plot is a good story, and here it is not spoiled. About the book a little more openness in the "seamy": rioting guardsmen here more directly shown.
The second role Kavsadze was given to him somehow better than the first, whacky get his touching and sincere.
Fedor Basmanov success. And Tolstoy is quite transparent hints that a relationship with him in Grozny, but here at all in plain text. The only thing that sorry, missed the fact that for all that Basmanov brave soldier, and not just "in Baby annuals" much dancing. Actor - handsome, great eyes, the operator does not hesitate to take a look, and played well: there is no love on either side not, Fedor is trying to manipulate the king for corrupt purposes, not very skillfully, until recently, not realizing that his beauty and skill in the pleasures for Ivan - a toy that has long tired, and just a habit established relationships postpones the inevitable disgrace. Alas, the acting duo with Kavsadze then somehow does not add up, that is clearly not interested in this facet of his image, despite the fact that the screen time given to Basmanova except that slightly less than silver.
"Druzhina" is good too - kind of a true nobleman, this noble old Russian suit. One of the most striking episodes - an attempt to break his Grozny, wearing a clown suit. When the lord of silence is menacing, then casually throws his hat, looking into the eyes of the king and begins to scold him outwardly calm ... I was filled.
I liked very amorous dreams Duke Silver, which in the original was not. But in vain! Lover can not dream of the beloved, and at every opportunity. And then there's separation ...
Final evidence preserved, but psychologically - no. Silver Book, a very simple and gentle, shows himself a true fatalist, and in the film - is very worried. I can not say it - lack.
While filming in front of us the classics, the film is clearly not meant to be high art, which is very good. The result was normal such drama on a historical theme. But here's the image of the Terrible led, yes ... maybe in the next screening is better?
In my opinion one of the best historical movies shot in our country.
ReplyDeleteDespite the fact that the film is based on a serious novel, it is very dynamic and very modern (as of 1991). There is even an erotic scene. True, if you knew that the actress, taken the lead role will be to drive in a negligee, could find a lady with breast volume greater than 0-th. The bottom line is that erotica is combined with peace, because in the field with cornflowers.
Kahi Kavsadze played just two almost opposite roles: King of All Russia and blessed "Ivashka, I am for you ...". This adds the antithesis of mysticism, and the way so much. King because religious. Killing and repents. Repents and kills. Gentleman's set.
Talc in the sable hat and with melancholy eyes is also quite good looks. "I do not blame you, no, I do not judge. I loved you ... Fate laughed at us ... ". Pretty strong the last scene. Black and black against a white nun-white church (ratio etc. 1/3 to 2/3). And desperate knock at the monastery gates.
Interesting kinovoploschenie Boris Godunov in a thoughtful and just a guy trying to limit the insanity Ivashki.
Kind Santa Stanislav Lubshin also rebuffs the king of bloodsucking. It is worth to see his face when the clown puts on his clown's coat ...
In principle, the powerful scenes in the movie a lot, so to list all the painful expensive.
Mysticism, fatalism, power, justice, fair robbers rape girls, bears, chess, and other national color.
One of my favorite movies.
What is the difference kinoobyvatel of film fans, so it's a love of idols. If the film is played by Choi, kinoobyvatel praises the film, if the film is removed talc, it is a cool movie.
ReplyDeleteWith Talkov begin. During his first few. Those who are interested know that talc personal reasons resigned shooting and the scenes with him in principle, damn little. As a result, the small number of Silver compensated vseobemleniem like Ivan the Terrible, which ultimately denies any idea of the film integrity. Secondly, he is no. Just shows up now and then there with the same constant Igor Talkova languid eyes and a strange voice, and the action ... as it unfolds itself, live their lives regardless of the Silver Prince.
Ivan the Terrible is a template. Georgians Kavsadze diligently puchit eyes, waving his big hands, but play them a king does not understand what that is inadequate bouncing king with wide open eyes and cardboard voice. What's on the mind of the ape king, do not know, probably not even the filmmakers. Compared to, for example, with subtle psychological game Alexei Zharkov, this king is not clear just what Ocellata in robes.
Reading people say that between the novel and the adaptation of the difference principle. Some even say that the script iskaverkal product beyond recognition, and it was one of the reasons for the refusal of Talkov shooting. In any case malosvyaznost, lumpiness and hysterically obvious.
About particular said on talc, about Ivan the Terrible, the plot. What else to say about some general things ..? We can say that this movie is a historical name can only conditionally. Thick for historical accuracy, I suppose, is not very keen, and the filmmakers even more. About whom this film, as he ... what he is is, a historical drama, dedication talc, drug delirium, or adaptation of classic fantasy adventure - is not clear.
Questionable what that movie, incomprehensible.
