Prospero's Books

directed by Peter Greenaway

1992

Peter Greenaway is one of the great filmmakers, with an original and personal vision. This movie is a marvelous mixture of Shakespeare, visual poetry, music, art ... a feast for the imagination.

It includes what must be the longest single pan to the side ever filmed. I'm not sure how long it was, but it went on forever. I guess it must have gone more than 360 degrees, circled back to the original spot, where new sets had replaced the old. I'm not sure. But it is dazzling. Actually, you can take virtually any frame from this movie and make it into a poster.

Well, yes, it is a little pretentious, and there are spots that move along too slowly, so you can't just "let it happen" as you do with most movies. This one requires you to pay attention.

This DVD-r is for the serious movie fans and collectors of hard to find movies that are in good to very good condition. I try to provide hard to find older films mainly from Europe. If you receive a defective disc I will replace it with the same title. It is in excellent condition and comes unsealed. My films come from various European/Foreign sources.  All of my DVD-rs are Region Free, so they are playable worldwide, but
