Arthouse favourite, from Victor Erice in 1973
not in an way a bad film, but whether or not it takes off is certainly subjective
use of long shots, but the takes not too epic
use of elliptical editing as the time passes; interesting way of showing time on screen, succesful in some ways (pretty literal), not in others (feeling it in spectator)
use of associative montage of animals and scenes, geographical cross cutting, gives the dreamy atmosphere
as does how the stpry seems to focus more and more on the tradition, pulling us away from a reality
cinematography certainly goes for the equisite image, good enough
use of cross lighting, a nice honey colour, and obvious beehive motifs
ideas of a move to nature, to adolescene, to uncovering horrors
what should and should not be seen
it doesn't go on to long, but all the same is rather static
fine enough, make of what is brought to it
