Finalmente ho colmato una mia lacuna e ho visto questo film di #AkiraKurosawa.
Se la storia è abbastanza semplice, le scene di combattimento, soprattutto quella sotto la pioggia, sono straordinarie.

I just saw the 2024 biopic about Maurice Ravel called "Boléro" that was directed by Anne Fontaine. I saw it out of curiosity because I simply don't know much about Ravel or how the piece was composed. The movie was OK because it is just a dramatisation based on a book. However, at the end, the piece is actually played on its own (about the last half only) with Raphaël Personnaz (the actor playing Ravel) conducting the orchestra with one ballet dancer dancing through and next to the orchestra. That is when I choked up and teared up. I have always loved the piece. Ravel wrote other music, which I don't know as well. Ravel came across - in the movie - as a perfectionist and someone deeply fascinated by sounds around him. I have the impression it wasn't the one piece he wanted to be remembered for, but the last 10 minutes of just playing the music - no film storytelling, just music storytelling - hit some chord in me, and I found beauty in it. Watching the "OK" movie part was worth it for those 10 minutes. (Danes: watch it on Filmstriben, of course.)

By the way, the movie intro was a great collection of various musicians doing their version of Boléro. Very cleverly done. Which is where I learned Frank Zappa had his own version, which includes the slide trombonist doing a bit of ballet at one point!
