Jan Švankmajer's Faust

[lotaresco]

In 1967 I saw Eric Porter perform Faust at the RSC, Stratford on Avon. One of the best theatre performances that I have ever seen and until I saw this version in the90s the best version of Faust that I had ever seen. Well worth seeing the entire performance if you can find it. I have the DVD released by Kino about a decade later, fortunately. A shame that it is no longer available new.

This is an interesting video. I want to see MORE! >:)

[Petarosus]

He died, because of cancer, after 10 days.

[MrDoriangreyyy]

kids wherever the demons says to you dont got out from the circle of proctetion goeth can be dangerous but if you know how control it can a good source for a lot of things....

@coinageboy

just as your life

[dilps]

I didn't hear that. Just another reason why not to do things related to the occult and black magic, fucked up shit happens. Also, some people don't understand the word "NO". Svankmajer did a great job, stays as strange and surreal as the original story, and still has an ancient feel to it.

[Fma1416]

The actor died ten days after the film was released.

That's fucking creepy.

[karler]

@Fma1416 This is the first time i heard of this. What was the cause of death?

[Fma1416]

@karler There's very little information about it on the internet. Wikipedia and imdb simply said he died 9/20/94, and I noticed that was ten days after the release of the film.

[theaznfishy]

why does all that stuff happen to faust prior to mestophailes appearing?

[ComparativeAnatomy1]

@theaznfishy

It's God trying to stop him from completing the incantation.

[magicalhearingman]

@theaznfishy I was under the impression that it was supposed to be the demon harassing the magician

[Ifileet]

This looks great. I wish I could see more. Such a shame that Faust thinks he's so wise as to barter with Satan.

[ComparativeAnatomy1]

@Ifileet

It's actually pretty easy to find for a Svankmajer film. You can easily order it online.

[Extra365]

Im not religious, and i find this to be an absolutely brilliant work of art.

[DisterPluton]

This movie was released on my birthday. XD And "Faust" is my favorite story of all time! I liked this one. :3

[MrTurningPointz]

@coinageboy I take it you're talking about your own life, yes ?

[pomponi0]

@coinageboy Did you watch the movie? You may not like it, but you need a REALLY good argument to call it "worthless". I personally found it fascinating.

[phubans]

Why this is hell, nor am I out of it. Think'st thou that I, who saw the face of God and tasted the eternal joys of heaven, am not tormented with ten thousand hells in being deprived of everlasting bliss?

[Wewerush]

i love jan svankmajer, and the way he fells it

[MrRedrum91]

Ma perchè in Italia lo conoscono cosi in pochi?

è un genio!

[alvarock68]

anche in Messico

[sangre78]

genial obra maestra!

[tanrat7]

good cinematography like this movie has seems to have become a lost art these days.

[chicago831]

very unfortunate this film has been discontinued. hopefully there are plans to release a special edition or at least just re-release the damn thing. jan is incredible and should not be swept under a rug by worthless mundane cinematography or hanna montana

[boratIII]

@chicago831 so true dude so true!

[MrRik2]

@chicago831 You can find it on Amazon.

[arsenology]

@chicago831 You can watch it for $3 on mubi.com

[VolkgartenBySquirrel]

Brooms alive! Where's the mouse? Mephi seems to like special effects. But he also likes greedy, selfish people.

...and also, to my everlasting shame...

[TriumVirateABAP]

Imposed shame MUST be separated from the TRUTH, and only the HOLY Spirit can uncover what THAT could be, unless you already know yourself well.

Most do not know themselves, an do not want to know. Somehow it's too scary.

Then I would have to ask THAT one:

Who let's emotions get in the way of coming to one's Belief 100%

Are you SURE? Q

[SAT9terminus]

Call on your Lord and KNOW your LORD. Would some of us DARE to know the NAME of who we know as GOD?

Would ANYONE DARE to learn the name of their neighbor, or anyother? Interpretation is HOLY, would some try to control natural honest understanding or interpretation that's individual?

Facts are facts, but facts without something to bind them what are they...various truths? Where these are from ALSO depend on a person's faith?

Would one dare to ask WHAT we worship?

Keep him BOUND!!!

[TriumVirateABAP]

We keep ourselves bound? What do you mean by this?

[sirwootalot]

holy shit this is awesome.

[voxsingularis]

inherent cause and effect in action

[Opreaismylife10692]

Someone had the whole movie uploaded once. Somebody else took it down. Could you put the whole thing up, please? I really want to see it again!

[thekakihara]

beautiful

[o0monox0o]

svankmajer is a genius

[caelarent]

My favorite movie ever! Thanks for uploading this great scene.

[xxxKINGFROGxxx]

I'd didnt realise that the main actor in this film Petr Cepek died just after this film was finished!

spooky!

I hope he didnt acidentally sell his soul!

but selling your soul to a puppet demon would be a hillarious thing to do.

[velvethandofdarkness]

Brilliant.

[istvanbracz]

This is, without a doubt, one of my ALL TIME FAVORITE interpretations captured on film. I am so grateful for this...Thank you Mr. Svankmajer for this exquisite work of art.

[jatigre1]

When I went to live in England in 95 this was the first movie I remember watching there (BBC 2) What a treat!

[xxxKINGFROGxxx]

i remember, it was christmas 1995!

[MargeAggedon]

This is one of my all time favorite movies. I highly recommend it! Svankmajer is a genius.

[LSkulls]

absolutely love this movie, makes Hollywood look weak.

[fuckmyassgirl]

Do anybody knows what is he saying to spell mephistofeles?

[peymaania]

It is Latin, you'll have to refer to the Vatican for help! However keep in my mind that Satan and the Pope are one and the same.

[IshootYouFall]

i think they would burn him or something...

[splarknarg]

ROFL

[MrPmj1979]

@peymaania "However keep in my mind that Satan and the Pope are one and the same"

Any pope in particular or all of them? All of since Peter?

[IshootYouFall]

you are one sick puppy...

[fuckmyassgirl]

I didnt know you know me

o i remember you,youre just an homosexual russian dancer living in a hotel near a circus and your dad is a prostitute man who rides an elephant to get home before make a masturbation ritual to his dead mom and your brain is all fucked up to judge someone you dont even know

[JohnnyTurc]
