Elvira Madigan (I) (1967)
8/10
An impressive love story with the beautiful cinematography and music
25 September 2008
I happened to watch this film, about 20 years ago, on 14-inch-screen TV. I don't remember the details of the film now. However, the touching feeling that I had from the film still remain in my mind. Especially, the cinematography was so beautiful.

The 14-inch-screen-TV might not be a proper device for fully enjoying the cinemas, especially for this type of art films. However, even on 14-inch-screen, this film impressed me with its beautiful scenes. Now, I don't recall most of its scenes. My memory of actual scenes was pretty much faded by time but in my mind, the aftertaste of this film still remain the same as when I watched the beautiful impressionist paintings. I think the director expressed very well the inner feelings of the leads through cinematography. For me, this film was such beautiful and powerful.

The classical piano piece that was flowing though out the film was also very good. I'd like to watch this film again on a huge screen and to have the touching feeling from this tragic but pure and powerful love story again.
