{"product_id":"738329258290","title":"Round-Up, the \u0026 the Red and the White (Blu-ray)","description":"\u003cp\u003eScreenwriter and director Miklós Jancsó was the creator of a unique film language centered around his mastery of the\n\u003cbr\u003etracking shot. The first internationally recognized representative of modern Hungarian filmmaking, in his works he examined\n\u003cbr\u003eoppressive authority and the mechanics of power.\n\u003cbr\u003eThe Round-Up (1966) depicts a prison camp in the aftermath of the 1848 Hungarian\n\u003cbr\u003eRevolution. After the Hapsburg monarchy succeeds in suppressing a nationalist\n\u003cbr\u003euprising, the army sets about arresting suspected guerillas, who are subject to\n\u003cbr\u003etorture. Jancsó’s camera stays in constant, hypnotic motion, meditating upon\n\u003cbr\u003eand exalting its characters’ resistance and perseverance in the face of brutal,\n\u003cbr\u003eauthoritarian repression. A true classic of world cinema. Restored in from its\n\u003cbr\u003eoriginal 35mm camera negative by National Film Institute Hungary – Film Archive.\n\u003cbr\u003eThe Red and the White (1967) is a haunting, powerful film about the absurdity and\n\u003cbr\u003eevil of war. Set in Central Russia during the Civil War of 1918, it details the murderous\n\u003cbr\u003eentanglements between Russia’s Red soldiers and the counter-revolutionary\n\u003cbr\u003eWhites in the hills along the Volga. The epic conflict moves with skillful speed\n\u003cbr\u003efrom a deserted monastery to a riverbank hospital to a final, unforgettable hillside\n\u003cbr\u003emassacre. With his brilliant use of exceptionally long takes, vast and unchanging\n\u003cbr\u003elandscapes and Tamás Somló ‘s hypnotic black and white photography, Jancsó\n\u003cbr\u003egives the film the quality of a surreal nightmare. In the director’s uncompromising\n\u003cbr\u003eworld, people lose all sense of identity and become hopeless pawns in the ultimate\n\u003cbr\u003egame of chance. Restored in from its original 35mm camera negative by\n\u003cbr\u003eNational Film Institute Hungary – Film Archive.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cinema 1 Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44893770154063,"sku":"738329258290","price":42.98,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0680\/2787\/5407\/files\/738329258290_6b53c1d2-9fbf-4cdc-b01d-fad4cc2a9da0.jpg?v=1773842185","url":"https:\/\/cinema1.ca\/products\/738329258290","provider":"Cinema 1 Inc.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
