Amazing, Chilling, Odd,
By b. "zaragoza" (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Decalogue: The Ten Commandments (Paperback)
Krysztof Kieslowski interprets the Ten Commandments through ten short sketches of modern day lives. Each sketch corresponds to how an individual grapples with one of the biblical commandments. Riveting in writing as well as on-screen.

This review is from: Decalogue: The Ten Commandments (Paperback)
This 10 episode masterpiece is now available on DVD, at a reasonable price. Many of us would like to study this work. The publisher should be encouraged to reprint the Kieslowski/Piesiewicz book.

an interesting book about an interesting ideal,
By A Customer
This review is from: Decalogue: The Ten Commandments (Paperback)
this was a very intriguing book based on, what i have been told, a series of short films directed by the author. i have not watched the films, but if they are as good as this book makes them out to be, i really would like to watch them. i would recommend this book to anyone interested in an interesting concept, such as basing films on the ten commandments, and probably anyone who enjoyed the films would enjoy this book as well.
