Plot: The film traces the history of Greece in the 20th century through the story of the relationship between a man and a woman over decades. Part one ends with the Greek civil war after World War II.
I remember someone saying that when you go to a theatre, you expect more than a story. A story is worthless by itself. Everyone has stories but in film, it is one beautiful elelment out of the many stunning aspects of film.
I will then say this film is a spectacular masterpiece by a director that continues making masterpiecees. I hate declaring geniuses all the time because only one in a million people are geniuses, this one is and this film proves it.
Not for the faint of heart this is unrelenting stuff. Prepare yourself for tragedy, then add a large dose of more tragedy and top it off with some tragedy. All the while keeping as cold an eye as Kubrick, almost documentary apart from a wonderful dream like sequence. A Bleak Masterpiece. Don't expect a happy ending.
Every shot Angelopoulos creates is like a minor miracle. Very few directors can make a film like this nowadays. He is perhaps the last modernist working in cinema. Visually breathtaking!
