Mlyn i krzyz (2011)
Better than Kubrick
29 July 2023
The Mill and the Cross is one of the best films I've ever seen, profound in both its imagery and understated message that addresses both spirituality, the perversion of religion by politics, and a lost way of near idyllic simple life that transcends the political chaos and executions of heretics during the Spanish Inquisition that are compared to Christ's crucifixion. I equate this movie to Kublick's visual poem of 2001 without the histrionic melodrama of his Barry Lyndon. It is incredible to me that this great film did not reach a higher audience or attract more of a following. Highest recommendation.
