Помимо её семейных неприятностей в английской глубинке начинает твориться настоящая чертовщина — недавно погибший местный бомж восстал из могилы и шастает по округе, жаждая крови.
La otra imagen
La otra imagen is a 1973 Spanish film directed by Antoni Ribas. It was entered into the 1973 Cannes Film Festival.
Vampir Cuadecuc
Self
An atmospheric essay, which is an alternative version of Count Dracula, a film directed by Jess Franco in 1970; a ghostly narration between fiction and reality.
Umbracle
The Woman
This film turns on two basic axes: the inquiry into ways of cinematographic representation and a critical image of official Spain at the time of the Franco dictatorship. “Montage of attractions” and Brechtianism in strong doses. Umbracle is made up of fragments (some are archive footage) that resound rather than progress by unusual links, with dejá vu scenes that promise us more but remain tensely unfinished. Jonathan Rosembaun said: “few directors since Resnais have played so ruthlessly with the unconscious narrative expectations to bug us”. Learning from the feeling of strangeness caused by Rossellini as he threw well known actors into savage scenery in southern Europe. Portabella makes Christopher Lee wander around a dream-like Barcelona. Without a doubt Portabella’s most structurally complex and most profoundly political film, that is ferociously poetic.
Граф Дракула
Vampire Woman (uncredited)
В мае 1897 года лондонский агент по недвижимости Джонатан Харкер отправляется в трансильванский замок некоего графа Дракулы, чем впоследствии обрекает на смертельную опасность и себя самого, и своих родственников.
A Winter in Mallorca
Amelie
The cigar-smoking French writer, George Sand (Lucia Bose) and her lover, the composer-pianist Chopin (Christopher Sandford) have rented a former monastery in Mallorca as a winter retreat. They have even shipped a piano to the site, so that Chopin can continue his work. However, what promised to be a warm, sunny vacation turns sour as the locals disapprove of Sand, the servants are surly and mysterious, and the monastery is cold. She has her revenge, however. She wrote the book A Winter in Mallorca about her miserable winter retreat. This film follows that book closely, with concern for historical accuracy, which did not increase the Spanish filmmakers' popularity with their countrymen.
