Ewa Krzyzewska and Zbigniew Cybulski in Ashes and Diamonds (Andrzej Wajda, 1958) Cast: Zbigniew Cybulski, Ewa Krzyzewska, Waclaw Zaztrzezynski, Adam Pawlikowski, Bogumil Kobiela, Jan Ciecierski. Screenplay: Jerzy Andrzejewski, Andrzej Wajda, based on a novel by Jerzy Andrzejewski. Cinematography: Jerzy Wójcik. Production design: Roman Mann. Film editing: Halina Nawrocka. Music: Filip Nowak. The plot of Ashes and Diamonds is simple: A group of men carry out an ambush on a road in the countryside only to discover that their intended target was not among the men they killed. So they return to town to plot another way of assassinating the man. The youngest, most volatile member of the group discovers that the man has taken the room next door in the hotel, but while waiting for his opportunity, his flirtation with a pretty young woman turns serious -- they begin to fall in love. Still, renouncing that chance at happiness, he follows through with his mission: He kills the man, but before he can make his escape from the town he is gunned down. It could have been -- probably has been -- the plot of a Western, a gangster film, a spy thriller, or a war movie. But because it's a film made in Poland during the Cold War, and the story it tells is set on the very day in 1945 when the Germans surrendered, it's an intensely political film, not just in what's on the screen but also in what went on while it was being made and released. I mention this because while I want to think about movies in purely aesthetic terms -- i.e., assessing the quality of acting, writing, direction, camerawork, etc. -- it's  almost impossible to approach a film like Ashes and Diamonds without taking so-called "external" factors like politics and history into consideration. If you try to watch it without knowing anything about the political situation in Poland in 1945, with the Germans retreating, the Soviets advancing, you'll miss half of the motivation of the characters and most of the intensity of the conflict. And if you disregard the fact that Poland in 1958 was a communist country, you can't understand why the plot to kill a communist leader was such a touchy subject for Andrzej Wajda to handle in a film -- and why the way he handled it was so audacious. It's a film that asks you to do your homework. On as pure an aesthetic level as I can get in thinking about the film, it's visually fascinating, with some splendid deep-focus cinematography by Jerzy Wójcik that pays homage to Gregg Toland's work on Citizen Kane (Orson Welles, 1941). Wajda was quite open about the influence of Welles on his filmmaking -- like Welles, Wajda wanted sets to have ceilings -- but he also expressed a love of American gangster movies and film noir, citing Scarface (Howard Hawks, 1932) and The Asphalt Jungle (John Huston, 1950) among his inspirations for Ashes and Diamonds. The American influence is probably most felt by viewers today in the performance of Zbigniew Cybulski in the role of Maciek, the young assassin. It's a showy, jittery, almost over-the-top performance that validates Cybulski's reputation as "the Polish James Dean." Wajda initially resisted casting Cybulski, wanting a more traditional actor for the role, but once Jerzy Andrzejewski, his co-screenwriter and author of the novel on which the film was based, persuaded him to hire Cybulski, Wajda realized that the handsome young star would attract the younger audience the film not only needed to succeed, but also to educate this audience about their country's past. He even gave in to Cybulski's demand that he be allowed to supply his own wardrobe -- not at all the kind of clothes that a young Polish partisan would have worn in 1945 -- including his signature sunglasses. (A line was inserted to explain that Maciek wore them because he had damaged his eyesight by spending too much time in the sewers of Warsaw during the uprising of 1944.) But Wajda added some idiosyncratic touches of his own to the film, including the bullets setting fire to the jacket of one of the unintended victims of the ambush, and some ventures into symbolism like the upside-down crucifix that looms over Maciek and Krystyna (Ewa Krzyzewska) when they visit a ruined church and the white horse that wanders the streets of the town near the film's end. Maciek is shot in a field where white sheets are drying on clotheslines, and when he clutches one of the sheets to himself, his blood shows through -- even though the film is in black and white, this is a reminder that the colors of the Polish flag, like the one the hotel keeper takes out to wave at the film's end, are white and red. Wajda also delighted in the ambiguity of Maciek's death scene, one of Cybulski's most extravagant moments, which takes place on a garbage heap. For the communist censors, he observed, this could be interpreted as the fate of rebels against their rule, while young would-be rebels could see it as the state treating them as garbage.

[rennybu]

genuinely a fan of taking the “mistakes” i made in my first DA2 run and looking at them from Orson’s character perspective, like, i messed up the timing on Isabela’s personal quest and so once she left she did Not come back, even tho they had high friendship. Orson struggled with balancing his work/life balance and could at times be very shallow and forgetful, and in trying to fix that aspect of himself (after Isabela’s departure) and put in more effort for his friends and open himself up to be trusting, just puts himself in a position where he much more easily gets used by Anders Because friends Help each other, even when the other is obviously withholding information, otherwise they might leave on a boat and never come back! Except this time it was not the boat

#and then in DAI he is like. i dont care who you are. varric called me #oh my god the orson anders friendship. i literally do not have the words just from a worldbuilding character dev pov they ruin me #orson hawke #IS THIS ANYTHING? #anders alive and well. if orson ever sees him again hes going to pretend he doesnt #this is how i get enrichmentgt from bioware games #i <3 extrapolating

#book list #book of the year

[891movies]

658 to go

The Kingdom (1994, dir. Lars von Trier, Morten Arnfred): It's really frustrating to me that no matter how unlikable I find von Trier as a person, I've yet to see a film by him I didn't love.

BlacKkKlansman (2018, dir. Spike Lee): Incredibly engaging, tense, funny, enjoyable film. Then the Charlottesville epilogue hits and it's like a punch to the gut.

Housekeeping (1987, dir. Bill Forsyth): This movie has all the ingredients to be a favorite of mine but something's missing in the execution.

The Awful Truth (1937, dir. Leo McCarey): I'm sure it says something about American society at the time that romantic comedies starring divorced couples were such a thing.

The Magnificent Ambersons (1942, dir. Orson Welles): This movie was notoriously "ruined" by the studio, though it still has its defenders who say it's on par with and even greater than Citizen Kane. I'm not one of those people but I can definitely see how it had the potential to be much better if not for the editing.

The Nutty Professor (1963, dir. Jerry Lewis): I find Jerry Lewis charming kind of in spite of his style of comedy, and every movie of his I see I grow a little bit fonder of him. Artists and Models is still my favorite, though.

Ariel (1988, dir. Aki Kaurismäki): I'm not sure how to describe the worlds Kaurismäki creates in his films. Bleak and hopeful at the same time, beautiful not in spite of but kind of because of their ugliness.

The Big Sky (1952, dir. Howard Hawks): I was a bit fatigued with movie watching at this point, so I definitely didn't pay this film the attention it deserved. I like Douglas Kirk, that's about all I retained.
