This final film from perhaps the patron saint of Bleak Week is a time-altering journey to a premodern world.
When the great Hungarian filmmaker Béla Tarr died in January, he was eulogized as one of the most visionary and influential filmmakers of our time. His last film, The Turin Horse, is a distillation of the essence of his cinema with his famous long takes, harshly striking black-and-white photography, entrancing music, and stark Hungarian landscapes and humanity.
The minimalist story follows the back-breaking routines of an aging farmer, his daughter, and their stubborn horse. Tarr’s films are uniquely transporting and mesmerizing experiences that cry out to be seen on film and in a cinema. The Turin House features some of his regular (and legendary) collaborators including the Nobel Prize winning author Lázló Krasznahorkai, composer Mihály Vig, and cinematographer Fred Keleman. In Hungarian with English subtitles. (155 mins., 35mm)
