Very subtle, beautiful, gentle and at the same time cruel in its truthfulness film.
It would seem that so much has already been filmed and written about it, and you can always remove and write a little in a new way, show it from some other side.
Pure love of the main characters, real, ready for anything - and condemnation, rejection of this love by society. Because the bride is the wrong krgua. And if the main character was a bad girl, she would probably be forgiven. I wouldn't, but I've safely forgotten. But beautiful, from the lower circle of society, and dared to marry the most promising groom in the district? Of course, this cannot be forgiven... And the light will show itself. I must say that even now, despite all the changes that have occurred in society,
I must say that there are not many films in which so openly laughed at the prevailing morals in high society. And while this film is tragic, I got a lot of fun in the first half of the film from seeing Valdemar. So subtly and at the same time clearly laughed at the whole "beaumonde", that there was nothing left but to smile at the next hit of the director "in the spot".
"At the point" - figuratively speaking, since I have not read the novel. The subject is familiar from other works, so I think that in this regard, Jerzy Goffman really succeeded.
I was sobbing over the end. It was a very sincere film, one that believed in the reality of what happened. .
It is strange that “Leper” is not as famous as the other tapes of Jerzy Hoffman.
Who's watching? All lovers of a good movie.
