Inhaltsangabe

The Three Colours Trilogy by Krzysztof Kieslowski (1941-1996) is generally regarded as a major triumph of European cinema. An examination of how the ideals of the French Revolution--liberty, equality and fraternity--have meaning in modern life, the trilogy combines visual elegance, narrative complexity, and virtuoso performances to extraordinary effect.
In this highly personal appreciation of the trilogy, Geoff Andrew analyzes how Kieslowski used his command of the cinema to open up the inner lives of his characters and to chart the way in which these lives are ruled by unseen forces. For Andrew, the trilogy is a poignant, thrilling hymn to the resilience of compassion in the face of adversity. Tracing the links between the trilogy and Kieslowski's earlier work, he argues that Blue (1993), White, and Red (both 1994) are the summation of Kieslowski's art. This book, which concludes with one of the last interviews Kieslowski ever gave, is a tribute to an exceptional filmmaker.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Remarkable for its memorable imagery, narrative and complexity and for the performances of Juliette Binoche, Julie Delpy and Irene Jacob, Kieslowski's "Three Colours" trilogy is widely recognized as a major triumph of European cinema. An intimate and personal interpretation of the French Revolution ideals of liberty, equality and fraternity, two of the three films gained major awards. This is an appreciative and personal account of the trilogy. Geoff Andrew communicates the power and arresting imagery of the films and demonstrates how the director's art is brought to bear in their moving renditions of the inner lives of its characters. The author also traces cinematic links between the films and describes how Kieslowski's early Polish film-making history culminated in these Swiss-Polish co-productions. An interview with Kieslowsi after his retirement and shortly before his death, concludes this tribute.
