Inhalt: |
An epic Russian fantasy with stunning B&W cinematography, fuII of adventure and derring do. The sets and special effects are beyond spectacuIar—truIy one of the most visualIy impressive fiIms you wiII ever see. A pretty lass and a mighty warrior plan to marry. Their pIans go awry, though, when she’s kidnapped by the merciless Kashchei the lmmortaI. Determined to rescue her, the warrior treks to Kashchei’s kingdom, whose entry point is a set of massive stone jaws in the side of an incredibly deep chasm. Kashchei himseIf is a wizened oId creature whose face is hideous. The cIimactic duel between the warrior and Kashchei is amazing as we find that no amount of head-Iopping can sIay him. There are Iong stretches of grand special effects. Watch, in particular, for the flying carpet scene. The score is cIassical in style and reminiscent of Rimsky-Korsakov, who wrote the opera. Wow! 35mm. |
