	THÉO ANGELOPOULOS
		Angelopoulos' filmer er følelsesladet på en helt spesiell måte, de er åpne fortellinger om mennesker og menneskeheten, satt i en sammenheng der minner og erfaringer spiller en vesentlig rolle.
		Angelopoulos dro tilbake til Hellas og jobbet noen år som filmkritiker i en venstreorientert avis fram til militærjuntaen overtok makten og stengte avisen i 1967.
		Theo Angelopoulos skrev poesi før han tilnærmet seg filmen, og han har flere ganger fortalt at det å skrive er en befrielse for den kreative prosessen.

	Theo Angelopoulos - musicolog.com
		Originally part of the so-called "Paris group", which was at the core of reaction in the sixties against traditional cinema, he soon moved away on his own to trace a brilliant course across the cinematic firmament, carving for himself an important niche among the great directors of the past century.
		The technical and structural characteristics of the work, such as the use of sequence-scenes, the theatrical cutting of his scenes, or the theory of Brechtian distancing, are the elements which allow him to interpret cinematic realism on new terms, to "invent" a cinematic style and to formulate a new trend in creating a spectacle.
		Angelopoulos is one of the few creative artist who manage to capture the pulse of life and of events, bear unerring witness to his times and be in advance of his times.

	Theo Angelopoulos
		By paralleling the geographic and moral desolation of a neglected and abandoned wife with the plight of an ancestral rural village, Angelopoulos reflects the contemporary national trauma of cultural uprooting and suppression of collective history.
		Angelopoulos frames the characters through medium and long shots in order to create a distant camera perspective, and reflects their own insignificance in their reluctant roles as peripheral witnesses to the country's turmoil.
		The first film of Theo Angelopoulos' self-described Trilogy of Silence (that also includes The Beekeeper and Landscape in the Mist), Voyage to Cythera is a sublimely poetic, elegiac, and profoundly moving portrait of disconnection, aging, and obsolescence.

	Untitled
		Ever since, Theo Angelopoulos has been generally referred to as "a critics' director" — and, indeed, no film artist apparently feels more at ease among critics (to use that term in its hallowed sense) than he does.
		Angelopoulos probably should have won the Golden Palm three years ago at Cannes for Ulysses's Gaze, and, according to at least one inside report, he narrowly missed winning the Golden Lion at Venice in 1988 for Landscape in the Mist (awarded the Silver Lion instead).

	===== FILMFESTIVAL =====
		An international symposium on Theo Angelopoulos, the worldwide famous Greek director, titled "Gazes into the world of Theo Angelopoulos" was organized last year within the context of the 41st International Thessaloniki Film Festival.
		Angelopoulos proposes "new ways of contemplating in relation with the void that is created in the modern world.
		He didn't neglect to state that Angelopoulos is "one of the few directors who has been dedicated dozens of essays, not to mention the extended studies and the references devoted to him through collective works." He pointed out that this comprises a rare Greek phenomenon.

		Angelopoulos employs these and other methods in novel ways that have the cumulative effect of animating dead space and time.
		Perhaps Angelopoulos' greatest achievement came in a film that he began shooting while the junta was still in power and concluded after the junta fell.
		While it is interesting to directly compare Angelopoulos' debut film with his most recent film, it would perhaps have been more instructive and enlightening to follow the progression of Angelopoulos through his cinematic career.

	Centre for Film Studies: Theodoros Angelopoulos
		Dr Angelopoulos was not willing to change, and it was demanded that he leave the school, the professor saying 'it’s either him, or me.' Facing this kind of pressure, Theo Angelopoulos decided he had better go.
		It is this viewer that Theo Angelopoulos depends upon to create meaning in his films: "I need to see through the eyes of the others", he once stated.
		Though Theo Angelopoulos' work is very much that of a Greek director, at the same time it seems to defy national borders, seeking to embrace the universally experienced complexities of modern European life.

		I must admit that I have not seen any of the films Angelopoulos made in the '70s and that the only other one I have seen apart from the four shown at the festival is The Bee Keeper (1986).
		Angelopoulos is fascinated by looking: he looks with his camera, which almost always moves, and he loves looking at looking (the director following his father in Voyage, the people on the river bank looking at the Lenin statue in Ulysses, etc.).
		As for Angelopoulos himself, he looks, and he sees, and it is an act of confirmation and love, and a renewing of his own faith in life and living.

		In Theo Angelopoulos' haunting fable odyssey, Landscape in the Mist (1988), an adolescent girl named Voula (Tania Palaiologou) begins to tell a bedtime story to her younger brother Alexander (Michalis Zeke) before being interrupted by the sound of their mother's approaching footsteps.
		After his father's arrest, Angelopoulos began to write poetry—a creative medium that he still considers to be the most important artistic influence in his life—even as he seemed destined to inherit his uncle's legal practice.
		Angelopoulos attributes his dismissal from IDHEC to a personal conflict with an instructor who disapproved of his perceived overconfident and cavalier attitude after his projects received overwhelming praise from both faculty and students.

		Angelopoulos made his own Alexander the Great film (Megalexandros) in 1980 - not about the Macedonian warlord but about a bandit who believes he is his reincarnation.
		Angelopoulos has a very specific idea of what it means to be Greek, one based on language and culture: a strand of Eternity and a Day involves a 19th-century Greek poet trying to reclaim the language for modernity, one word at a time.
		To some, Angelopoulos is the sort of auteur to be revered rather than enjoyed; but open yourself up to the slow, incantatory rhythms of his cinema and their deep pleasures become apparent (I speak as someone moved to tears by the closing moments of Eternity and a Day).

	The Greek and Balkan Spirit of Comedy During the Journeys with the Films of Theo Angelopoulos
		Once more, however, Angelopoulos ends his film on a “triumphant” note as he shows a series of broken telegraph poles along the river border, each with a repair man in a yellow rain coat, climbing the poles and beginning to connect wires from pole to pole, reaching across the border.
		Angelopoulos traces this odd friendship that becomes something of a grandfather --grandson relationship across the age barriers, the national boundaries of Albania and Greece and those of social class and cultural background as well.
		Angelopoulos in my interviews with him has made it clear that he strongly believes there is a new humanism possible through all the tragedies that have unfolded in the Balkans and especially in Greece.

	dark discussion - Trilogy I: The Weeping Meadow (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		In connection with the Tessaloniki IFF in Nov 2003, the European maestro of modern cinema — Theo Angelopoulos — was interviewed by the festival programme manager, Michel Demopoulos, and a group of journalists.
		Angelopoulos talks about how much he would like to shoot a film with Michelle Pfeiffer, Elias Koteas, Harvey Keitel and either Dennis Hopper or Sean Penn. He talks about that there are always two tendencies, The Godard tendency and the Hitchcock tendency: One writes everything down and the other finds everything during shooting.
		All the typical Angelopoulos trademarks are here: Very long runtime - about 3 hrs, long static shots from steady-cam, sparse editing, camera movement is often replaced by movement of characters and action, almost abstract images, arresting set pieces, panoramic landscape compositions, spellbinding score, and his familiar colour scheme of greens, greys and browns.

		This enterprise represented some danger for Angelopoulos and his crew, and it would have been easier for the film to be shot in the safety of a studio, outside the areas of unrest.
		This is in keeping with Angelopoulos' intent to occasionally distance his viewers from their emotional responses, forcing them to study and explore the identities of the characters.
		Angelopoulos cannot help but be pessimistic in that respect: "plus ça change et plus c'est la meme chose" is his only conclusion.

	Theo Angelopoulos
		Though he may not be well known amongst the general populace of American moviegoers, filmmaker, screenwriter and producer Theo Angelopoulos is one of the premiere contemporary directors in his native Greece, and according to some critics, the world.
		The films of Angelopoulos contain engrossing stories that unfold slowly, naturally; they are realistic and yet one never forgets their theatrical roots, and subtle abstractions abound.
		In 1965, Angelopoulos attempted to direct his first film, but an argument with the producer killed the project and he didn't try again until 1968 when he directed a short documentary.
