DON'T WATCH THIS

[smekerutzul_radu · 1/10 · 28 August 2022]

Wasted time, actors don't speak in the movie, horrible, I can't believe Netflix has host this thing.

I seen bad movies in my life but this...is like from another world, nobody who is born after 1990 can't watch this movie like ''hey, let's watch an old movie''. I hope people to into here before play the movie, and see my review to avoid this best way to waste your time for like nothing, no action, no comedy, no drama, nothing...

Worst movie ever, I can't call this movie even... Worst thing you can put on a screen.

This thing doesn't deserve even 1 star... -1 maybe

Don't...watch....!!!

I say it again to understand and be very clear:

Peter Kylberg is one of those rare testimonies to cinema's claim as the seventh art-form. At the tender age of 18, his debut film Kadens was screened at the Cannes film festival, representing Sweden's only contribution that year.

While we can speak of his films as firmly rooted in the auteur-style cinema of the French New Wave, with another foot reaching for the Eastern European tradition of animation art (Starewicz and Borowczyk), we might also stop to ask ourselves if we have actually produced a meaningful sentence. The truth is that his is an art, whose narrative never ceases to defy conventional definition. Indeed, the word "narr" in Swedish means jester, which may provide some guidance as to his playful weaving of a web between character, viewer and director. His films are a sequence of sound- and colour-carpets, that blur the structural distinctions between the signifier and the signified. From this perspective, the criticism directed against the introverted and egocentric nature of JAG ("I"), is really a projection of collective shame.

Since the death of Brakhage, Kylberg probably remains the most innovative and original figurehead of experimental cinema.

THE BEST

One of the best films I have ever seen. Jag, which means I, has been though to be a too introvert and egoistic. 20 years later he followed up with the movie Du, which means You. Even though its short its bigger than everything. Peter have also made other good films like Du, F42 and Istället för ett äventyr.
