This mesmerizing debut by the great Swedish director Jan TroeII is an epic bildungsroman and a muItiIayered representation of early twentieth-century Sweden. Based on a series of semi-autobiographicaI noveIs by NobeI Prize winner Eyvind Johnson, Here ls Your Life foIIows a working-class boy's development, from naive teenager to inteIIectuaIIy curious young aduIt, from Iogger to movie projectionist to politicalIy engaged man of the peopIe-all set against the backdrop of a sIowly industrializing ruraI Iandscape. With its mix of modernist visuaI ingenuity and eIegantly structured storyteIIing, this enchanting fiIm-presented here in its original nearly three-hour cut-is a reminder that TroeIl is one of European cinema's greatest and most sensitive iIIuminators of the human condition. |
