I encourage you, wherever you are, to now stand and give Jervis a round of applause, as a show of appreciation.

 The conversion of a tragedy by Cocteau into a cinema melodrama: a reading of Il mistero di Oberwald
In Il mistero di Oberwald colours are modulated and change in time; the opening of windows in the stormy night at the beginning provokes a shift towards green in the tones of the walls.
From this point of view, the movement of the camera in the opening scene is perfectly understandable when it moves from the windows to the portrait of the king which is finally tinged with green; something new has penetrated the life of the castle.
The queen's monologue before the wounded anarchist has a turning point at the moment when she relates the events of their wedding day; she and the king were riding in the royal carriage and a man jumped on to it with a bouquet of flowers in his hand.

 The Mystery of Oberwald   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-27)
Based on Jean Cocteau's "L'Aigle à Deux Têtes", "The Mystery of Oberwald" is an anomaly in Michelangelo Antonioni's opus for at least two reasons: Never before did he direct a film using costumes, and never did he borrow a screenplay from another director.
In Oberwald, the anarchist does not throw the bomb but metaphorically by the Queen who paradoxically affirms, "If I were not the queen, I would myself be an anarchist." Poetry and feelings are more important for her than imperatives of court.
He reconstitutes the portrait of Elisabeth of Austria faithfully, dressing her in fl (the fl of mourning, the fl of anguish … the fl of anarchy?) and stylizing her coiffure the same way that Leopold Horowitz did in his magisterial portrait of the Queen, painted the very year of her death.

 [No title]   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-27)
Were this the entire story, THE OBERWALD MYSTERY would be a bafflingly stodgy addition to Antonioni's credits, doubly baffling as Antonioni has never done anything so obvious and old-fashioned before.
A director with as instinctive an eye as Antonioni's is hard-put to eliminate every shred of interest from his camerawork.) The only innovation is in the use of color and video special effects.
The mere fact that such a prominent European filmmaker would spend so much time and effort on video has to be of some interest, in and of itself.

 Essays - "The Rise and Fall of Video"
Il mistero di Oberwald is the first full-length cinema film in video format, and this allowed its author to investigate the new expressive possibilities of image manipulation which it offers to cinema narrative.
In some cases, prominent film schools are doing their best to suppress this sort of enthusiasm, and perhaps advisably so—but more of that in another essay.
Within the area of color blending, it is true that Oberwald does things that have never before been seen on the screen: landscape and buildings convincingly brighten with the arriving morning, or blood from a decapitated chicken darkens from red to fl before our very eyes...

 Gerald Peary - film reviews - The Mystery of Oberwald
If so, you were among the disappointed when the great Italian filmmaker, Michelangelo Antonioni (L'aventura, Red Desert, Blow Up), unveiled The Mystery of Oberwald, a stage-to-screen rendition of a tediously talky Jean Cocteau chamber play, The Eagle Has Two Heads.
The Mystery of Oberwald disappeared from sight after a brief, abortive American opening in 1981.
Still, it's neat watching Vitti stretch out with monologues and soliloquys; and The Mystery of Oberwald does have a fabulous double-death kitsch ending which (would Antonioni acknowledge a Hollywood western?) seems an homage to the guy-gal shoot-out in the desert finishing King Vidor's 1946 Duel in the Sun.

After crossing the Milibach a path goes off to the Grimselpass but the path to Oberwald continues through forests to eventually reach Oberwald.
From here the path crosses a succession of streams, the Walibach, Hilpersbach, Wilerbach and Schwarzer Brunnen, most of which involved fairly steep ascents and descents and in the heat of the summer of 2003, with temperatures in the upper 30s, extremely tiring.

 The Mystery Of Oberwald - Movie Review
A minor work of Michelangelo Antonioni, The Mystery of Oberwald is not something many outside the Antonioni-obsessed will care to seek out.
Oberwald's story, based on Jean Cocteau's play L'Aigle a Deux Tetes, involves a mourning queen (Antonioni regular Monica Vitti) whose husband has recently been killed.
An assassin is on her tail as well, but when the two finally meet, she sees he has been injured, and owing in part to his resemblance to her late husband, the two fall in love, Romeo & Juliet style.

 'The Mystery of Oberwald' | April 11, 2001 | VHS Nation   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-27)
The Italian director Michelangelo Antonioni, tired of the usual 35mm film he ordinarily used to create his decidedly artistic movies, wanted to try something different.
He turned to the rawness of video and created the full-length feature The Mystery of Oberwald, which has the aura of a BBC tele-movie on acid.
The Mystery of Oberwald moves slowly and is weighty with dialogue; this is in part due to the way Antonioni presents reality and also because the film is based on Jean Cocteau's play, The Eagle Has Two Heads.

 The Mystery Of Oberwald | The A.V. Club
Antonioni adapted Jean Cocteau's 19th-century romance The Eagle Has Two Heads into The Mystery Of Oberwald, and cast former flame (and star of Antonioni's Red Desert, among others) Monica Vitti as a reclusive queen who falls in love with would-be assassin Franco Branciaroli, mostly because he reminds Vitti of her late husband.
The story is fairly stolid, and apparently of little interest to the director, who utilizes the simple scenario as a platform from which he can demonstrate what can be done with videotape.
The main drawback is that video tends to look too harshly "real," and the lifelike presentation of Oberwald's sets and costumes makes the film more evocative of 1980 than the 1800s.
