why Hollywood does remakes again and again, when there exist already a great movie from 1966 with best actors in b/w exactly this novel by Knut Hamsun
Not according to the Hamsun family. They love the film and are great supporters of it! Remember: Hamsun himself was progressive and interested in new forms. 2009 is 150th anniversary of his birth and this film will be shown all around Norway.
I honestly just finished the book "Hunger" about five minutes ago. I thought it had really complex outlooks on the human mind that were interesting, however I found it very depressing. It made me hungry, too, not ironically. The ending was what especially depressed me. I wanted him to stay with his girlfriend :(. but I guess life's not a disney movie. this movie looks good though.
Passionate and agonizing. Maria Giese gets credit, not only for recognizing the beauty of the message in Knut Hamsun's masterpiece, but for bringing it to the screen in such an alarming, visceral, scrappy (not in the sense of "fragmented", but in the sense of "a fighting spirit"), way. Joseph Culp's brilliant portrayal of the down-and-out screenwriter is nothing less than Chaplinesque--the character he gives us is at once endearing, annoying, pathetic, and deeply profound.
Thanks for the comments. It may shed a little light to know that this film had a budget of $0 dollars. Zip, zero, guerrilla all the way. It took years to complete and everything was donated in keeping with the strict "vow of poverty" that is the film and spirit of the original novel. Improvements may come in time, but this is the real deal. An authentic American Dogme-style film!
I love this, but why do I still feel that something is...Wrong?¿? Maybe a film filter. Yeah, pump up the sat. add a film filter then darken the 4 corners by 20% with a large feather.

But he was not superficial. He was not an humorist.

If that is the truth you can swear your loved one on, then perhaps there is hope.
