Cinema of Sergei Parajanov 2: Colour of Pomegranates

"The Colour of Pomegranates by Parajanov, in my opinion one of the best contemporary directors, strikes with its perfection of beauty." --- Michelangelo Antonioni

"To me, it seems, the cinema of Parajanov began not with the "Shadows of our forgotten ancestors", as many think, but with "Colour of Pomegranates". Probably, besides the film language suggested by Griffith and Eisenstein, the world cinema has not discovered anything revolutionarily new until "Colour of Pomegranates" not counting the generally unaccepted language of the "Andalusian Dog" by Bunuel." --- Mikhail Vartanov

What am i watching

[Christopher Khachadour]

I don't want anyone to get hurt I like Georgians, all I'm saying is he is an ethnic Armenian, he was raised in Tbilisi. A lot of Armenians live in Tbilisi. The subtitles in white are Armenian, the yellow is English. And true, it is a Soivet era fim. So it belongs to all former Soviet countries :)

[Alexander Pateishvili]

some of this movie is in Armenian, some of it is in Georgian. subtitles are in Russian and the movie itself is Soviet ;) end of story, nobody gets hurt

You can see a lot of Parajanov's aesthetic in the work of Kim Kardashian.

[Michael Rodriguez]

This is not Georgian, this is Armenian, Sergei Parajanov was born Sargis Parajanian.
