Review of Iphigenia

Iphigenia (1977)
Beautiful homage for basic human values
8 January 2007
Subtle masterpiece and precise recreation of Euripides tragedy.

Delicate art and science of light's exploration. And a great casting.

Same atmosphere of old Greek period, same taste of secret, duty and sacrifice. And the splendid music.

But the power of film consist in Tatiana Papamoschou's androgen's. A delicate acting and form of cult . Noble homage for basic human values. And Irene Papas- part of his character.

Principal merit of film is gentle protection of skill. The tension of silence, the deep force of gestures.

So, "Iphigenia" is more of a beautiful movie. It is a gorgeous "memento mori".
