Elizabeth R - Mini Series - Episode 5 - The Enterprise of England (1972)

The execution of Mary Queen of Scots has outraged the Catholic factions of Europe and now the Spanish are threatening to invade England. Elizabeth still holds Cecil and Walsingham responsible but Cecil is in poor health and she needs him now more than ever because her realm is in danger. Cecil has put up with a lot from her, yet he is still willing to serve her. So is Robert Dudley who is also in poor health and though still married part of his heart is still with Elizabeth.

His stepson, Robert Devereaux is the Queen’s new favorite and he is a little jealous yet there is nothing he can do about it. Elizabeth likes young, handsome men around her but they need to be able to cope with her ever changing moods like the rest of the court does.

The Spanish invasion begins at sea while Elizabeth rides out to Tilbury to rally her land forces. Glenda recites the Queen’s famous rallying cry with both power and passion and gives the men the boost they need to fight for England. But they really won’t need to. The damage is being done to the Spanish fleet at sea. The defeat of the Armada humiliated the Spanish and Phillip II. It also sent a message that Elizabeth wouldn’t give up her crown without a fight and her people were behind her.

But the joy of her victory is short lived. She soon learns her beloved Robert Dudley is dead. She knew he was ill but wasn’t ready to face the thought of losing him. Now she is forced to and we can see the deep love she still had for him by the intense grief she displays when she is finally alone. In this moment, she is not a Queen but a woman, a woman with a broken heart that will never heal.

Elizabeth R - 1971 Mini Series - Episode 4 - Horrible Conspiracies

Mary, Queen of Scots, has been held prisoner in a British castle for 20 years, basically being spoiled while under house arrest, yet unable to leave. Behind the scenes scheming goes on with Catholic supporters of Queen Mary setting up a treachery against Queen Elizabeth. All Queen Mary seems to want is to return home or claim the throne of England through less nefarious means. Enemies of Queen Mary, desperate to rid themselves of her, step up to convince Queen Elizabeth to sign her execution, but she refuses. Their craftiness knows no bounds, and as history shows, that fate was sealed as Mary was in her castle prison.

Set nearly 30 years into her reign, Queen Elizabeth has given up on the idea of finding a husband and spawning an heir, so this episode deals mainly with political intrigue rather than the romantic pressures of the previous two episodes. Both queens are presented with noble personalities, so there's no Livia. Livilla, Messalina, Agrappinilla, Eleanor or Isabel to make a she devil out of either character.

Both women knew from birth that family loyalty in royalty is inconsequential when it comes to maintaining order for the throne. In their eyes, the other is the one doing the plotting, unaware of the set-up being plotted around them. In her second episode, Vivian Pickles is quite good, a bit more matronly and age appropriate than Vanessa Redgrave was in the same year's "Mary Queen of Scots" where Jackson also played Elizabeth. Both portrayals are worth acclaim though. The men here in charge of the plot are quite sinister, especially Dudley who tells a condemned man that death is quick but the path to it is tedious before he taunts him with torture. History has been brutal for millenniums, but the subtlety of the hint of that brutality makes it all the more vicious

Glenda Jackson as Elizabeth I - Elizabeth R (Elizabeth Regina)

Vivian Pickles as Mary Stuart, Queen of Scots.

Il Presidente del Borgorosso Football Club (1970)

He decides to visit the club so as to sell it. But the local population have other ideas, through an almost armed uprising they “force” him not to sell the club, but rather, lead it to other glories on the football field. Gradually his initial reservations about football slowly erode away to be replaced by an almost fanatical devotion to “his” football club, to the point that he abandons his family, friends and home town.

Elizabeth R - 1971 TV Mini series - Episode 3

As England reels after the St. Bartholomew's Day Massacre in France,  Elizabeth meets her most eligible suitor yet: François, Duke of Alençon, the younger brother of the French king. A marriage will cement France's sought-for alliance with England. Despite the Puritans' rousing opposition in the country (of which her zealously anti-Catholic councillor Sir Francis Walsingham secretly approves), Elizabeth seems taken with the witty and flower-tongued François. As her duties as queen clash with her feelings as a woman, Elizabeth faces her toughest decision.

The marriage would have cemented an alliance between England and France. However, Elizabeth eventually abandoned the proposal in 1581. 

Elizabeth is charmed by François, but her advisors are cautious and anti-Catholic. 

The Puritans in England are also strongly opposed to the marriage. 

Elizabeth's xenophobic subjects are also discontent with the proposal. 

Elizabeth may have been aware that Anjou was her last realistic chance of marriage and of having an heir.

Once a year, an aristocratic Austrian family holds a traditional feast at which masters and servants trade places. A troupe of actors (including cult cabaret artist Ingrid Caven) are hired to entertain the guests, performing fragments from the “cultural scrap heap”: GONE WITH THE WIND, Madame Bovary, Tennessee Williams, Swan Lake.

Jacob, the Liar - Jakob der Lügner - (1975)

Trapped in a Polish Ghetto with thousands of other Jews facing starvation or deportation to the death camps, Jacob is detained one evening at Gestapo headquarters. Eavesdropping, he overhears a radio report about a nearby Russian victory. At first he is silent, but circumstances compel him to pass on the good news of hope. In order to be believed, he feigns access to a hidden, strictly forbidden radio. Quickly he becomes a one-man bulwark against despair, a reluctant hero, but a tragic figure still-a man ultimately powerless to see or change the fate of his people. 

Director: Frank Beyer. 

Stars: Vlastimil Brodský, Erwin Geschonneck, Henry Hübchen, Blanche Kommerell, Manuela Simon, Dersö Garas, Zsuzsa Gordon, Friedrich Richter, Margit Bara, Armin Mueller-Stahl.

Bástyasétány hetvennégy - Singing on the Treadmill (1974)

Singing on the Treadmill is a surreal operetta parody about the realities of day-to-day socialism. The film is set in a vast garbage dump where, in the depths of a quarry, next to a derelict factory building, two librettists are penning a frothy operetta about the paternalism of Kadarism, its lies, reality perceived through rose tinted glasses and squabbles over a housing allocation. However, their lacquered players are not prepared to bend to their will, they take offence and start demanding independence, rejecting ‘orders from above’ about partners and housing. Gyula Gazdag’s grotesque parody that works on several levels is amusing and dream-like, full of free-flowing associations and remarkable solutions. Citing its “disheartening existentialism”, the authorities banned the film for 10 years.

Director: Gyula Gazdag.

Writers: Gyula Gazdag, Miklós Györffy.

Stars: Evald Schorm, István Iglódi, Lili Monori, Róbert Koltai, Judit Pogány, Sándor Halmágyi, Mari Kiss, Zoltán Papp, Eszter Csákányi, László Helyey, Hédi Temessy, Lajos Öze, Hanna Honthy.

Marcel Proust's Time Regained - Le temps retrouvé, d'après l'oeuvre - (1999)

A lush, elegant epic taking us on a time-swirling trip down the infinitely complex labyrinth that is Marcel Proust's memory lane.

Marcel Proust (1871-1922) is on his deathbed. Looking at photographs brings memories of his childhood, his youth, his lovers, and the way the Great War put an end to a stratum of society. His memories are in no particular order, they move back and forth in time. Marcel at various ages interacts with Odette, with the beautiful Gilberte and her doomed husband, with the pleasure-seeking Baron de Charlus, with Marcel's lover Albertine, and with others; present also in memory are Marcel's beloved mother and grandmother. It seems as if to live is to remember and to capture memories is to create a work of great art. The memories parallel the final volume of Proust's novel.
