  • The music is from Bulgaria, "le Mystere des voix Bulgares", actually eerie and beautiful. Callas is so appropriate for the role,

  • @escarinae "ignorance of the noble Greeks for the rest of the world"?are you joking?You are talking about "slaves" in ancient Greece when slaves existed in USA and GB in 18th century?You are talking about the "Greek consept of "barbarians"" when a thousand years after the rest balcanians were still drinking their wine from the skull of their enemies and making necromancy from the open abdomen of their prisoners?typical hatred from a typical balcanian.Your comments in tube seep poison for Greeks

  • one of the most beautiful films.

  • @mchicapp E' vero, ma guarda per esempio la scena in cui sacrificano l'uomo (è nella parte 2), queste musiche bizzarre, ossessive, questi uomini vestiti in modo stranissimo, tutto questo rito in cui fanno a pezzi l'uomo e sporcano le piante con il suo sangue...e le telecamere che inquadrano sempre persone che fissano il vuoto, o che fissano le piante, in silenzio...........a me ha turbato sopratutto quel pezzo.

  • @096giovadale non l'ho ancora visto tutto, ma la medeab è una delle storie più terribili di tutta la mitologia greca. 'sta tipa aiuta un nemico del padre, ammazza il fratello, lo fa a pezzi e ne butta in mare un pezzo alla volta. poi ammazza i figli per fare un dispetto al suo amante nonché padre dei due ragazzini. certo la storia è un po' cruenta e doveva turbare. dovrebbe rappresentare il lato oscuro della femminilità. la femmina soggetto di desiderio era inaccettabile. oggetto sì. soggetto no

  • E' normale che questo film mi ha un po' turbato?

  • i do not understand this movie why Callas played in it :(

  • @dyingoddess Pasolini took inspiration also from the opera by Cherubini and the version of Medea by the italian writer Corrado Alvaro.

  • @escarinae Stop being a whining baby. Youtube has enough of those. Also, the amount of faulty "facts" you use is staggeringly high. Stop pretending to know everything about ancient Greece and its society, and read some non-disputed carefully researched scientific studies instead of the cr*p you seem to have taken for fact on face value without considering alternative theories.

  • They had really weird rituals in ancient times (minoic cultures?) acc. to Pasolini :)

  • This music is TO DIE FOR!! Lovely! Sheer BEAUTY! Pasolini is a genius. :)

  • This movie show perfectly how much problem pasolini got with his father, for the rest, it's just pure crap, euripide whould have puked actually.

    Callas anyway looks great.
