Well, that one wrung a few tears from me, but again, I was so uplifted by the beauty of it, I almost couldn't cry at all. Oh, G-d, the colours! And oh, that I were tall and graceful as Flying Snow, and that good with a sword. But one of the last swordfights I was in ended much differently, though no less interestingly. Who knew it to be such an aphrodesiac? Mm. Well. Oh, that I could use Fidessa more often, and in a more structured setting. And without having to drive three hours each way.
I'm not sure I've ever seen such a dramatic use of colour, nor have I ever-- I'm fairly certain-- seen a film wherein the flow of fabric was so important. The falling green silk banners in the King's palace will probably stay with me for years. Snow's sleeves, as well. And the streaming pennants of the guards, in ranks upon ranks of sunlit cavalry.
There's a relationship in here somewhere to anime, and I'm not sure I've worked that all out in my head as yet. Something having to do with pushing always for the most stunning visual, the most meaningful detail, the most harmonic display. It may well be a cultural thing, too. It just reminds me that I really am "cinematically challenged."
Next?
