Instructions
Step 1
In the summer of 2012, a festival dedicated to Greenaway films was held. This is a retrospective of films from 1982-2007, selected in a specific order. In addition to the films loved by fans, new short films were presented, as well as one of the most mysterious films of our time, The Secrets of the Night Watch. In it, the great director tried to reveal the secret of Rembrandt's "Night Watch". The action-packed story of a sinister murder investigation and political conspiracy reflected Greenway's extravagant view of the great artist's life.
Step 2
If you missed the Peter Greenaway film retrospective held at the House of Cinema in the northern capital from June 15 to 18, 2012, try to restore it for personal viewing at home. Set aside a few free evenings or a whole day without kids and important things to do, and take the time to watch great movies. It is best to use the sequence proposed by the director Peter Greenaway himself, in order to better feel the development of the artist's creative thought.
Step 3
Start your evening with The Books of Prospero (1991), based on Shakespeare's The Tempest, then check out Child of Macon (1993). Next, see The Cook, Thief, His Wife and Her Lover (1989), The Secrets of The Night Watch (2007), The Draftsman's Contract (1982), The Intimate Diary (1996).
Step 4
Finish your viewing of Greenaway's films with the absurd-surreal comedy "Countdown of the Drowned" (1988), which for more than two decades has not lost its original black humor and controversy.
