Ulysses´ Gaze Best Scene

An exiled Greek filmmaker is returning home and sets out on an epic journey across the battered Balkans in search of three lost reels of film by the Manakis brothers, the pioneering photographers who introduced movies into the Balkans at the beginning of the century.

The search for the reels of film works as a metaphor for a search for the common history of the Balkan countries.

I remember like yesterday the astonished face of Mr.Aggelopoulos when, during the Cannes ceremony award, he was called to receive only the second prize for this film "Ulysses' Gaze" instead of the Palm d'Or that was given to Kusturica's "UNDERGROUND". And I recall myself thinking of how arrogant this man Aggelopoulos can be.

BUT THIS WAS BEFORE I SEE BOTH THE TWO FILMS.

I then realized his astonishment.

...so tragically ironic,that a Man who cherished taking his time in his scenes,allowing the viewer ample time to reflect on his painstakingly crafted symbolic images,should perish literally on his set,victim to modern day brainless,meaningless speed...
