Featured review
A Melancholy Masterpiece
At this time, those longhaired youngsters interested in this Herr Graf's silent rants, probably will know, among other aristocratic trifles, the fondness of this German count for the autumn season, an indispensable relief for the battered aristocrats, wearied after enduring the sufferings of the summer season going to and fro, that is to say, from soirées to private balls, from Baden-Baden to Monte Carlo.
All the virtues of the autumn season are wonderfully depicted in a short but exceptional silent film, "Brummes D'Automne" (1929), another superb, lyrical masterpiece by Herr Dimitri Kirsanoff.
As it says in the preface to this beautiful short film, "Brummes D'Automne" is a cinematic poem, an astounding, lyrical and avant-garde oeuvre wherein Herr Kirsanoff gets hold of the titanic task of capturing the melancholy, nostalgia, the hope and hopelessness of human inner sentiments. Frau Nadia Sibirskaia ( Herr Kirsanoff's first wife and his muse during his early oeuvres ) reflects these aims perfectly and Herr Kirsanoff transmits them to the audience in an incredible way.
The genuine autumn mood is exhibited in "Brummes D'Automne" in a superior, unique, painful and even magical manner. It is an exceptional film in which the autumn atmosphere and ethereal human feelings complement each other admirably. The audience is moved by evocative images from nature ( falling leaves, rain, mist frozen landscapes), all beautifully photographed by Herr Jean de Miéville. This, combined with the suffering the heroine must undergo, makes "Brummes D'Automne" a melancholy masterpiece.
And now, if you'll allow me, I must temporarily take my leave because this German Count must enjoy the autumn season mood.
