Movie Reviews of Cabiria
Movie Review: one of the most influential films of all time
Summary: 5 Stars
HFS this film is sick. a mix of classic arabesque and fantasy from 1913. nice special effects of mt vesuvious erupting, the gianormous statue of moloch and feeding children into a giant oven. . hella text cards include elaborate invocations to pagan dieties.
the piano score sucks.
Summary of Cabiria
Inspired by grand opera and Italy's imperialist victory in the Libyan War (1911-12), the Italian movie industry produced dozens of historical epics in the period just before World War I. The most influential and successful of these was Cabiria, the visually spectacular film which set the standard for the big-budget feature-length movies around the world and opened the way for D.W. Griffith and Cecil B. De Mille. The story concerns a girl-Cabiria-who is separated from her parents during the Punic Wars in the Third Century B.C. In her odyssey through the world of ancient Rome, she encounters the eruption of Mt. Etna, capture by pirates, the barbaric splendor of Carthage, human sacrifice and Hannibal crossing the Alps. With meticulous care given to costume and set design, Cabiria was shot in North Africa, Sicily and the Italian Alps.Art House & International DVD Video
