Cinematographical masterpiece,
This review is from: The Legend of Suram Fortress [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Almost 15 years after shooting his greatest masterpiece "Colors of pomegranates", after suffering accusations, spending years in prisons and concentrations camps, Parajanov finally returns with "The Legend of Souram Fortress". His first two movies were shot in Ukraine and Armenia respectively, this one was a work of GruziaFilm (Republic of Georgia). Here the action takes place in medieval Georgia. The last wall around the Souram fortress constantly collapses no matter what the builders try to... A spurned woman denied be the man she loves makes a prophecy and advises the prince who abandoned her to bury his son in the walls of Suram Fortress to protect it during a siege.According to the prophecy the only way to complete the wall around the fortress is to immure the hero into the wall. Parajanov's worldwide success came "Shadows of forgotten ancestors" and "Colors of pomegranates" in 60's. While this movie didn't achieve the similar success, it's till among the must-haves for any follower of Parajanov's talent. |
