"The Main Thing is to Love". On Andrzej Żuławski’s Films
Author(s): Piotr Kletowski Subject(s): Theatre, Dance, Performing Arts
Published by: Instytut Sztuki Polskiej Akademii Nauk
Keywords: Andrzej Zulawski
Summary/Abstract: Kletowski explores the creative activity of Andrzej Żuławski, focusing on the style, intensity and main plots of his films. Kletowski argues that they are invariably marked by disintegration and corruption, and for the director, Romanticism is “a horror of blood, fire and sperm, taking place under the empty sky”. The life of Żuławski’s heroes is a spasmodic tussle, excesses, violence, cruelty, tears and ugliness in which beauty manifests itself just for a split second.
