THE SPIRIT OF THE BEEHIVE

January 30, 2007 VirginieSelavy 1 Comment

Ví­Â­ctor Erice’s 1973 classic is a wonderfully dreamy, slow-paced evocation of rural Spain just after the end of the Civil War, seen through the eyes of six-year-old Ana. Set in the barren plains of Castile, the film starts with the projection of James Whale’s Frankenstein, brought to the village by a travelling cinema.
