Em honra de Bibi Andersson (1935 - 2019) filme #3. Filmado no auge da revolução sexual e feminista, como bem dos protestos anti-guerra do Vietnã ao redor do mundo, é um total relato de uma época, seja em termos de narratividade cinematográfica quanto em historicidade e ao mesmo tempo resgatando a atemporalidade de Aristófanes e continuando atual dos tempos de hoje que me surpreendo por esse filme não ser mais divulgados do que de fato é. DVDRip no Karagarga.

The premise is a little one-track, certainly not the most eloquent feminist manifesto out there (and that's saying something), but that's true of the original Lysistrata, and I still like this as a 'scream'. The breadth of Zetterling's cinematic expression is impressive, especially considering the monotony of the "war of the sexes" narrative; she provides a Felliniesque torrent of fresh sights and sounds, enough to keep it interesting throughout.

I had high hopes for this, featuring some of Bergman's greatest performers. Unfortunately, it goes way over-the-top with the experimental flourishes. Obvious juxtapositions, half-baked metaphors and heavy-handed social commentary. Subtlety is not to be found here, and the film's divebomb approach to the battle of the sexes is often grating and tedious. The heart's in the right place, but the execution is too irritating. Nice photography and a strong cast aren't enough.
