To coincide with the recent DVD release of The Spirit of the
Beehive, this paperback collection of essays focuses on the work of
acclaimed Spanish director, Victor Erice. Originally published in
hardcover under the title An Open Window, this expanded edition
draws on original essays, reprints, and new translations from an
international group of writers. New to this edition are four essays
from noted film scholars-including editor Linda C. Ehrlich-as well
as three added essays from the filmmaker himself. Both the original
and new material provide a deeper appreciation of Erice's three
feature-length films-The Spirit of the Beehive [El espiritu de la
colmena] (1973), El Sur (1982), and Dream of Light [aka The Quince
Tree Sun, El sol del membrillo] (1992), as well as his shorter
works, including his most recent accomplishment, La morte rouge
(2006). This anthology examines the aesthetic, historical, and
sociological forces at work in Erice's films and includes an
extensive interview with the director. This broad array of writings
provides insight into not only three unforgettable films, but also
into twentieth-century Spanish society, as well as world cinema.
The Cinema of Victor Erice: An Open Window will serve as an
important resource to measure the career of this director who-along
with Bunuel, Saura, and Almodovar-has helped show the world the
creative range of Spanish cinema. With additional essays,
translations, and illustrations, this paperback edition explores
new avenues of expression pursued by one of the most poetic of
modern filmmakers.
