I watch this video once a year.. i watch the entire movie every 8 months... Bella Tarr give us a cruel example of what movies should really be in real cinema. Less camera shaking.. less special effects... more meaning and a real sense of greatness when you enjoy making your work a piece of art like the full masterpiece of Werkmeister Harmonies. Bella Tarr and Tarkovsky were those rare cases of genius on cinema where you can really apreciate art beyond a camera, an script or the movie itself.
@Peter Kelner Yup, pretty much that. Spielberg is an horrible filmmaker in my opinion and people use to insert him into the category of "one of the greatests of all time"...
"Dad, why is my sister's name Rose?" "Because your mother loves roses, so we named her after that." "Ah ok, thanks!" "No problem Werckmeister Harmonies (Opening Scene - GR-EN sub)"
Delightful! Touching and engaging - infinitely sad in a way. The drunks in the bar remind me of the rustics or "mechanicals" in Shakespeare's 'A Midsummer Night's Dream' - rehearsing their awkward little play in the middle of nowhere. The man who plays the sun in this movie is wonderful with his twinkling hands - this forgotten soul just for a moment is the sun itself! - The centre of the universe! - He is told he matters... He will tell his wife, his children "I was the sun today!" He will tell this story many times... Rather like Bottom in Shakespeare's play, he experiences something amazing just for a little while before returning to the gloomy shadows of his day-to-day life: The life most of us inhabit.
i think you're romantizing the harshness of the movie it seems to me this scene puts the rationality (i'm sorry if i'm mistaken, it's been almost two years since i saw it) of an explanation for the solar eclipse versus the despair of a viewer who panics with things he doesnt understand, like animals in the forest. Which goes in paralel with the absurdity that takes over the villagers in a sort of fascist or mob-mentality way, while the one dude that is not going complete crazy ends up in a psychiatric hospital (i dont remember many parts of the movie so i may be mistaken) even though everyone stops for his performance in the opening scene. Its sad and tough. There'a a reason why the men watching are drunk, there's a reason he goes home alone in the dark. The lead character has a very reasonable yet dream-like way of viewing the universe - but the crowd just wants a spectacle, they dont want to be sober to understand the dudes speech, he is only another peculiar attraction. Most people (im not excluding myself) many times just want something to hate and some guidance, and these desperate needs can lead into chaos. So basically this is the microcosm of a microcosm in the movie, the bar scene (the drunk men) is a smaller demonstration of the people who inhabit the village, which is a smaller demonstration of any country falling into a vicious mentality, because of human nature itself. ps: Also, light and darkness has been a metaphor for reason and ignorance since (how do you say Iluminismo in english?.. ah fodase) the 18th century, and the scene plays with it (which is not genius, because it's a common thing in movies, but its at least nice with its consistency). man, i really hope this makes some fucking sense, or else i'm remembering it wrong and missing important details of the plotline. #pas
and the chaos of the village is a metonym for the wider disruption on a cosmological scale. The film is a melancholy reflection on how-things-could-be-but-inevitably-are-not.
I know, I love the idea of the planets as drunks. Just following gravity's guidances, lost of their dignity. Reminds me of citation networks in academia lol
An opening scene of such brilliance it gives me chills. Every once in a while a film scene comes along that captivates…totally different setting but the peep show dialogue scene in “Paris, Texas” is another one that I found to be a stunning piece of filmmaking.
I first saw this movie on 35 mm film in a cinema. I didn't know anything about it. Only the reputation of its director. Can you imagine seeing this opening scene under such circumstances? It was a total experience.
With all the Hitchcock films, space films, sci-fies, deep dramas in mind, this is the only scene that is above life itself. It communicates such emotion I will never be able to grasp rationally. Contains all of life and makes me shiver with amazement
I certainly love this movie and scene specially but saying that is a little pretentious and disrespectul against some filmakers like Tarkovsky for instance.
Bela Tarr is following the great cinema tradition of Robert Bresson, Andrej Tarkovsky, Ingmar Bergman and many other great auteurs. You should check them all, all of them of have the strength of powerful beauty, raise high bar for film as a respective medium of art.
@@bbbllsels2773 yeah those excitement and epicness only stay with you as long as you re-watch them time to time. But movies like these you see once, never forget.
@@justBeOrDontB7568 This film is pretentious and the most boring movie I've ever seen. I am not saying marvel is better, I do not like marvel either. I am just saying I cannot finish this movie after that bar scene. Of course, I love Andrei Tarkovsky movies and some great foreign cinema classics, but honestly, this Bela Tarr film is just so boring. I liked his Satantango better.
The sound of the language alone makes this scene 10 times more beautiful,not to mention how beautiful it is in its writing and the picture itself to begin with
I had the distinct pleasure today - (Monday, April 17th, 2018) - of playing the role of the **MOON** in a television studio film that was shot at New York University on Manhattan island. The shoot was based upon this scene and this dialogue . . . I want to tell you that it is a sincere honor to be associated with something which can be deeply and effectively profound - (if one will only allow for that to happen) - and I can tell you from depths of my heart that it was entirely worth it to be a part of this unique production. I am excited not only about seeing the final edit once that has been made available - but am also excited by the prospect of sharing it with other people in the hope and with a prayer that their hearts and souls might be touched by this amazingly impressive work as much as mine surely is.
So simple, and so precious yet. Best movie of all times, maybe, for what I saw. Special effects? This is a special effect: depicting both reality and imagination. Real and surreal. 140 minutes where nothing’s out of tune, time goes by like a blink of an eye. Past, present, future melt with themselves, you find a limbo, there’s no time. It’s even difficult to describe this stuff. Great, great, great movie
I've made a number of films now and, late at night, when I'm looking for inspiration, I keep coming back to Bela Tarr. I can't put my finger on it but he delivers this raw and deliberate thrust of cinematic intention that few have achieved. Or want to.
In my opinion, it is the casual "realism" of the drunk teaching scene of a profound concept, paired with the acknowledgement of the cinematic style (freeze, zoom out) to say, "Nevertheless, there are ones who still hear as you speak."
It's absolutely beautiful that when Valuska says "And then... complete silence", a beautifully sorrowful song suddenly starts playing. As if it was the song in everyone's mind as the world would come to an end.
la plus belle scène de l'histoire du cinéma! Faire jouer la danse des astres par des ivrognes sur une musique hypnotique, c'est le Génie. Et l'image et la photo! quel chef d'oeuvre!
I remember discovering this movie when I was 16 and I decided not to watch it for one reason only - I couldn't find it in a decent quality anywhere. Now that I'm 29 and I've watched almost all classics, there're couple of movies remastering of which I'm still waiting for. And this is one of them.
@@Redhoks The language the actors are actually speaking is German, which is then dubbed over in Hungarian. This is how the original film is, there is no version available with the original German audio. Then, the subtitles are in English and Greek.
@@ParzivalTheThird I don't speak German or Hungarian but from watching a ton of films from both countries I've came to the conclusion that the Hungarian language is much more "poetic" than German so I kinda understand his choice of dubbing over the original audio. I know what you mean, some parts look a bit weird because the dialogue and the mouth are off, but I understand the dubbing as an artistic choice even though I agree with you to some degree.
The bar owner asks Valuska to leave, without any consideration. Valuska stands at the door, sad, upset, and tells the owner that he hasn't finished his presentation. He doesn't question, he doesn't argue, he just complains and leaves right away. No one cares. Valuska doesn't complain, it's not a lament, it's information. Valuska knows that there's no going back, and no one cares about that. The people in Bela Tarr's film are mere floating beings, their words are worthless, not even to the characters themselves. They're like papers. Every time you scribble on a piece of paper, it gets wet and destroyed, and you go on to scribble on another piece of paper. It's the mere recognition of existence, not the experience. Beautiful, that's Bela Tarr.
Yet it was a daily occurence :) and it's reflected in how he looks meaningfully at the bar owner and says, well, it's not over. For it's never to be over. These revolutions around the sun, darkness to light, they happen daily...they are not historical majesties. Thus the drunkardness of the whole matter, when sped up with sobriety's eye.
I was just watching this, and right at the very end the subtitles stopped showing up. Can anyone tell me what the last few lines that are said to the main character are? After nothing counts at all? I'm dying to know! It's such a good movie, in so many ways.
Hi Aldimitris,can you please explain what you mean by your introductory comment? As far as I can see, this is theatre before it is film. For me, there is nothing intrinsically 'filmic' about it - the camera could be the audience in a small theatre.
I don't think it could have the same effect. If you saw this in a theatre -even from only ten to thirty feet away- it would look much more like just a bunch of drunks shambling around one rambling man. Objectively speaking, that's all that's happening here. But you don't live life objectively -sitting in an audience at a distance. You experience life as a subjective participant with opinions. As such, minor, everyday events like this one can feel like miracles. That's what film gives you: a subjective viewpoint. You're a part of the story, whether you're watching it from low earth orbit or from inside a character's head. This shot utilises that perfectly: its sheer length and weirdness makes the event seem almost hyperreal. There's something to be said just for how unique and technically demanding this aesthetic is. But more specifically, there's meaning in the way the camera shifts -all in one shot- between a more static observer, a more active participating character, and something almost like a spiritual presence when it floats to the ceiling light. The same goes for the sound switching between awkward, loud fumbling sounds and that amazing music. I won't try and break it down entirely, but the result, somehow, is that it pulls out the thing that's miraculous in this moment, and makes you feel it.
It's the full cast pause. That is a theatrical effect primarily. I wonder what the history is behind the choice to execute that in cinema. You have a good point.
I know thats far beside the point of the scene, but the Moon is actually tidally locked to Earth, so the Moon guy should have faced towards the Earth guy continuously while revolving around him, just sayin :D
Well this could be a spoiler !!! If you are talking about the scene in the mental institution; the last couple lines are more like, "I'll come to visit you everyday, take good care of yourself" etc.... Same happened to me with subtitles but i was watching with a Hungarian friend.
I just finished the novel and I ask myself the same question. I think the book (and probably the movie) is artificial and meaningless, a gratuitous exercise in style. I can't recognize anything of the world as I know it. The characters are opaque, the events they go through are incomprehensible. The Valuska character seems a cliché of the poetic fool. And nowhere do I find any hint, in the comments of the people who claim they love the book or the film, of what it is all about.
+DrunkenM33rkat Why even bother to rate them? All of Bela Tarr's work is eternal masterpieces, even though I am not particularly fond of almanac of fall, it too got some really strong moments in it, for each hour in my life I switch between calling Satantango, The Turin horse and Werckmeister Harmonies my favorite film and at this point I really don't care anymore which one is my favorite, since they all are
Werckmeister Harmonies was a real art movie, a near-perfect masterpiece but comparing it with a 7 hour epic would be unfair. I love Satantango a bit more but this movie is also spectacular.
I hope people watch this a thousand years from now....
I watch this video once a year.. i watch the entire movie every 8 months...

I concur. this one blew my mind. Beautiful, cruel, surreal and still so true... Will look out for other Bela Tarr stuff!
Suggestions in order?
Every challenge is an eclipse onto itself. Every hit, every shard of pain, a world-ending endeavour. Yet, we stand.

At the end of the eclipse, they all dance around the sun.... Unexpected, wonderful.

So what is this scene about?
I just finished the novel and I ask myself the same question. I think the book (and probably the movie) is artificial and meaningless, a gratuitous exercise in style. I can't recognize anything of the world as I know it. The characters are opaque, the events they go through are incomprehensible. The Valuska character seems a cliché of the poetic fool. And nowhere do I find any hint, in the comments of the people who claim they love the book or the film, of what it is all about.
Now I haven't seen the movie, so I'm not sure how accurate this scene is to the actual movie. But what's going on with this dubbing?
Main actor is German so movie was redubbed into original language in post-production from what I know (Hungarian)
I had the same problem. It's so frustrating.

Werckmeister Harmonies was a real art movie, a near-perfect masterpiece but comparing it with a 7 hour epic would be unfair. I love Satantango a bit more but this movie is also spectacular.
