The book in a good way captures with its ambitiousness – this is, in essence, the poetic story of the tenth muses, which the big writer missed “through himself.”
The regulars of the cinema clubs (which are many to this day) and just filmmakers will be happy to find that the Western intelligentsia of the “fanatel” about the same films that were shown on “museum” views in Russia.
Having paid proper period, Leclazio also tells about his impressions of Akkaton Pazolini, “Rocco and his brothers” Visconti, Japanese cinema and much more. And smoothly proceeds to the problems of much more modern – “Bollywood” and the phenomenon of critical social cinema in Islamic Iran.
Jean-Mari Gustav Leclazio recently became the owner of the Nobel Prize in Literature, and it is natural that his most diverse books are now a wide reader’s interest.
He is not only a novelist, but also a brilliant essayist, a kind of poet of essays, and this dedicated movie is a wonderful confirmation of this.
