THE BURNING CRUCIBLE with Live Score by DJ Stephanie Neptune
SPECTACLE
Brooklyn, NY
Partager cet événement :


Too surreal to be straightforward romance, too sweet and sentimental to be anything but, silent film oddity THE BURNING CRUCIBLE combines French amour-fou with Russian mystical melancholy in this tale of a detective who falls in love with the 'lost wife' he's honor-bound to return to her doting husband.

The only directorial feature by Russian star Ivan Mosjoukine (who also wrote and played 11 different roles in the film), THE BURNING CRUCIBLE reflects the unique synthesis that made Mosjoukine himself so popular in his adopted country. Described by one admirer as 'the subtle alchemist of passion and pain', here he plays famous detective 'Z', who haunts the dreams of young wife Elle (played by Mosjoukine's real-life wife Nathalie Lissenko). Elle and her husband, a doting, wealthy businessman, have grown apart. Tormented by jealous visions, the husband chases her through the streets of Paris in a scene worthy of Buster Keaton, accidentally stumbling into a unique detective agency dedicated to finding lost items  including the affection of wives. Unwittingly hiring the very man Elle's dreamt of, he puts Z on the case, but in trying to discover the root of Elle's apathy, Z uncovers a shared passion for Paris and a growing attraction to the lively young woman.

All this takes place on sets far too large for the human scale, amid truly bizarre set pieces including a dance contest literally to the death, a secret society with rooms of disembodied organs, and the swankest bedroom in Paris. Less 'anti-' and more valentine to the bittersweetness of falling in love,THE BURNING CRUCIBLE's earnestness is constantly tempered by a hefty dose of surreal humor.

In the same spirit, Spectacle presents the film with live score by DJ Stephanie Neptune (aka SPACE JAM). Having opened for everyone from Kode9 to Laurel Halo to Robert Hood as a resident at TURRBOTAX, she now runs CLEAR USA, a record label dedicated to releasing subterranean electronic music from between the coasts.
