Torrent description


Alexis Zorbas (1964)
aka Zorba The Greek




Nikos Kazantzakis' novels lend themselves to cinematic treatment. Jules Dassin made a great
adaptation of "He Who Must Die", and Michael Cacoyannis was equally successful in bringing
"Alexis Zorbas" to the screen. Watching this film for a second time puts into perspective a
lot of things that escape many a viewer the first time around.

Michael Cacoyannis changed the order of events in the book, as well as Nikos, who he transforms
into Basil, the Englishman. The changes are not without merit since all the elements
contribute to blend well together in the finished product. The director was fortunate
to find such collaborators as Mikis Theodorakis, the genial composer of the music score
and Walter Lassally, who photographed the barren area where most of the action takes
place. Viewing the film on cable recently, shows Lassally's crisp black and white
photography in mint condition.

The film is totally dominated by Zorba, who is a figure larger than life, as he takes
Basil under his wing from the start. Anthony Quinn was a perfect choice for playing
the title character. Mr. Quinn had worked with other brilliant directors, Federico
Fellini, being one of them. It's almost impossible to think of Mr. Quinn as being
an American because the magnificent transformation he undergoes here to portray Zorba.

Alan Bates, who is seen as Basil, the Englishman of Greek descent, who is going to Crete
to see the family's land and mine. By underplaying Basil, Mr. Bates set the right tone, in
sharp contrast with Anthony Quinn's exuberance. Alan Bates, in the end, made perfect sense
with the way he played Basil.

Lila Kedrova is another surprise in the film. She is the tragic Madame Hortense, who has
lived in the island for quite a while. It's ironic that love always eluded her until she
finds in Zorba a reason for keep on living. Irene Papas is equally intense as the widow
who is haunted by all the men in town. She has little to say, but just a look from her
smolders the screen, be it, for the lust she felt for Basil, or the hatred for the town
male population.

Michael Cacoyannis uses these men, as a sort of Greek Chorus, so important in Greek
tragedies. The same could be said of the older women of the town who resent the arrivals
of strangers. The Greek cast one sees is quite effective in the context of the movie.

"Alexis Zorbas", or "Zorba, the Greek", is a film that will stay with the viewer for
quite a while because of what the director accomplished with it.






Capodopera a celei de a saptea arte ,filmul Alexis Zorbas(Zorba The Greek) este
ecranizarea romanului cu acelasi nume a lui Nikos Kazantzakis.Regizorul Mihalis Kakogiannis
a fost norcos sa gasesca colaboratori ca Mikis Theodorakis(genialul compozitor al
coloanei sonore) si Walter Lassally(care a filmat tot tinutul saracacios unde
are loc cea mai mare parte a actiunii).
Filmul este dominat in totalitate de catre Zorba,pentru care Antony Quinn pare sa fi fost
alegerea perfecta.Acesta pare a fi cel mai bun rol interpretat de Antony Quinn vreodata.
Exuberanta lui Zorba,capacitatea caracterului de a vedea numai partea senina a vietii
si de a transfera atitudinea sa optimista si celor din jur ,combinate cu metafora dansului pe
plaja pustie fac din acest film o capodopera.Deasemenea actori ca Irene Papas si Alan Bates
isi joaca rolurile cu profesionalism ,interpretand caractere puternice cu mare autenticitate.
