Comment-1:
The
world of Dostoevsky, 2 January 2009
|
Before
viewing this one, I was a little sceptical about it all,
but after viewing it (till the last credits faded out) I
know that this is a very good movie.
When
reading Dostoevsky, you get a very strong impression of
the mood and people that live in the world he has written
down. I must admit that I don't know much about his life,
so I cannot say this film is accurate. But that doesn't
really matter, for I Demoni di San Pietroburgo is more
of a story where a writer is confronted with his own world.
But I cannot say much about this, for the story is not
about actions that shape events and how the world reacts,
but people that grow and face themselves.
Montaldo
is the right man to direct this movie. Not only has his
earlier films touched subjects that are akin to the works
of Dostoevsky, but he has shown experience in making a
historical world believable (Marco Polo).
I
don't know any of the actors in this (except for Roberto
Herlitzka) but they are all very good. I will find something
more with Miki Manojlovic in it to see, for his portrayal
was interesting. The people in 'lesser' roles were all
very good.
The
cinematography by Arnaldo Catinari is just excellent.
Every shot is well done, but still in service of the movie.
It's almost always cold and pale. When there is light,
it's lanterns that cast long shadows that serve the dark
world very well.
The
production is very good. Completely believable. I have
no idea where it is filmed, but if it isn't St. Petersburg...it
certainly feels like it. There are numerous extras and
they all look like they belong there. The one special
effect I could detect wasn't that great, but it was still
good enough.
The
editing was good. Few surprises, but it isn't a movie
for strange montage.
And
the music, at last. Ennio Morricone has composed for 40
years for Montaldo now. I can be brief around; he is not
the best because he creates music that you expect, but
because it's just what the movie needs. The score is sometimes
very oldschool suspense-like, with fitting emotional moments.
The music itself might not be very easy to listen too
for some people, but it gives the film just what it needs
at the right moment.
I
own an Italian DVD with English subtitles.
Without
doubt one of those European films that are just rock-solid,
but tend to disappear between the blockbusters that just
get more attention. Still, Montaldo proves it again; he
is one of the best!(IMDB)

Comment-2:
Great
biopic, but mediocre film, 24 February 2009
|
|
By chance
I was invited to see a showing of this film with an introduction
from the director. This may be why I am willing to offer
it the generous scoring of 6 out of 10 rather than something
lower, because he was there to explain a bit more the production
of his film, his association with Konchalovsky, and the
filming locations. As a mostly accurate historical portrayal
of Russian novelist Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoevsky, it is
a spot on piece. The details of his life were offered in
such a way to give the audience a feel of the times and
mental state of Dostoevsky, who was himself an epileptic.
Those who are familiar with Dosteovsky will certainly appreciate
the way in which the film discusses his life, while those
who come in with little knowledge of the author will have
to trust the accuracy of the film (and need not fear doing
so). Demoni was filmed in Turin, Italy which the director
felt closely resembled St. Petersburg, a city which was
indeed partially designed by the Swiss-Italian architect
Domenico Trezzini.
This
was a clever move from the director, but as a film I still
feel that it was nothing particularly special. A biopic
of Dostoevsky seemed so strange in Italian, filmed in such
a distinctive Italian style. I felt as a film the production
was a little cheap and resembled an artistic TV-movie rather
than actually standing on its own as an artistic film. Aside
from Miki Manojlovic, who plays the grown Dostoevsky, the
acting was too over the top for my taste. There was not
really a believable spark between any of the actors, relationships
were to be assumed rather than felt. The film was certainly
not something earth-shattering but that's not to say it
isn't watchable. Depends on what you're looking for. (IMDB)

Giuliano
Montaldo
(born February 22, 1930 in Genoa) is an Italian film director.
While he was
still a young student, Montaldo was recruited by the director
Carlo Lizzani for the role of leading actor in the film Achtung!
Banditi! (1951). Following this experience he began an apprenticeship
as an assistant director of Lizzani and Gillo Pontecorvo.
In 1960 he made his debut as a
director with Tiro al piccione, a film about the partisan resistance,
which entered for a competition in Venice Film Festival in 1961.
In 1965 he wrote and directed Una bella grinta, a cynical representation
of the economic boom of Italy, winning the Special Prize of the
Jury at Berlin Film Festival. He then directed the production
Grand Slam (1967) which starred an international cast including
Edward G. Robinson, Klaus Kinski, and Janet Leigh. His cinema
career continued with Gott mit uns (1969), and Sacco and Vanzetti
(1971), a film about the abuses of the military, judicial and
religious power.
In 1982 he
directed the colossal television miniseries Marco Polo, which
won the Emmy Award for Outstanding Miniseries.(See

04-Fyodor
Mikhailovich Dostoevsky
|
| |
| Fyodor Mikhaylovich Dostoyevsky
(Russian: Фёдор Михайлович Достое?вский, Fёdor Mihajlovi?
Dostoevskij, pronounced [?f?od?r m???xajl?v??t? d?st??j?fsk??j]
( listen),[4] sometimes transliterated Dostoevsky, Dostoievsky,
Dostojevskij, Dostoevski, Dostojevski or Dostoevskij (November
11, [O.S. October 30] 1821 – February 9, [O.S. January 28]
1881) was a Russian writer and essayist, known for his novels
Crime and Punishment and The Brothers Karamazov.
Dostoyevsky's literary output explores human
psychology in the troubled political, social and spiritual
context of 19th-century Russian society. Considered by many
as a founder or precursor of 20th-century existentialism,
his Notes from Underground (1864), written in the embittered
voice of the anonymous "underground man", was
called by Walter Kaufmann the "best overture for existentialism
ever written."[5] A prominent figure in world literature,
Dostoyevsky is often acknowledged by critics as one of the
greatest psychologists in world literature.

Family
origins
Mariinsky Hospital in Moscow, Dostoyevsky's birthplace.Dostoyevsky's
mother was Russian. His paternal ancestors were from a village
called Dostoyev in Belarus, in the guberniya (province) of
Minsk, not far from Pinsk; the stress on the family name was
originally on the second syllable, matching that of the town
(Dostóev), but in the nineteenth century was shifted to the
third syllable.[7] According to one account, Dostoyevsky's
paternal ancestors were Polonized nobles (szlachta) of Ruthenian
origin and went to war bearing Polish Radwan Coat of Arms.
Dostoyevsky (Polish "Dostojewski") Radwan armorial
bearings were drawn for the Dostoyevsky Museum in Moscow.[8]
Early
life
Dostoyevsky was the second of six children born to Mikhail
and Maria Dostoyevsky.[9] Dostoyevsky's father Mikhail was
a retired military surgeon and a violent alcoholic, who
had practiced at the Mariinsky Hospital for the Poor in
Moscow. The hospital was located in one of the city's worst
areas; local landmarks included a cemetery for criminals,
a lunatic asylum, and an orphanage for abandoned infants.
This urban landscape made a lasting impression on the young
Dostoyevsky, whose interest in and compassion for the poor,
oppressed and tormented was apparent. Though his parents
forbade it, Dostoyevsky liked to wander out to the hospital
garden, where the suffering patients sat to catch a glimpse
of sun. The young Dostoyevsky loved to spend time with these
patients and hear their stories.......
