Last Seen 70s/80s Movie

[Dante'sInferno]

Martyrs


The movie was incredibly sad. It sucks that dumbass hollywood is going to ruin it though with their shitty remakes. Other then that, this movie is greatly acted by everyone. I can't find anymore words on how I feel about it though.


10/10.

Skammen aka Shame (1968)



This is less symbolic than some of Bergman's works but an intense, psychological study of Jan and Eva (Max Von Sydow & Liv Ullmann), a married couple who has their personal problems like anyone else, but suddenly find their quiet life in a Swedish Island completely upset by a civil war. Faced with increasing losses and humiliations, they struggle not only against circumstances, but their own psyches. As their trusts to one another are tested...they are forced to choose between love and survival. And they betray their souls, their friends and even each other in a desperate attempt to simply survive another day.
The film portrays, in the bleakest and most uncompromising terms, that the worst that war has to offer is the wounds it inflicts on the human mind. Bergman pointed that a shameless war does more than endanger our lives: it robs us of our dignity as humans. He depicts a hypothetical war scenario with unnamed forces fighting one another. May be it is not about specific historical events, with specific names and dates, but about universal human reactions to adversity and chaos.

My second time watching this, and I was blown away yet again. Keeping aside the fact that Kurosawa is my all-time favorite director, here both him and Mifune tread into really unfamiliar territory of sophisticated values and bring out one of the best movies ever made. Mifune especially is nothing short of brilliance. A gem of a movie.

I am so glad I am not alone in loving this one, after seeing all the brickbats it has been getting around these parts. Nice sentiments, Dante. I really love Martyrs a lot too. One of my favorite modern ones.
