Comment Dept. of localica, zephyrin, April 8, 2003 at 12:39:29 PM CEST Legong -- dance of the virgins On Friday, April the 16. the movie "Legong -- dance of the virgins" from 1935 is shown at the film-museum in Munich. The film (2-colour technicolor), directed by Henri de la Falaise, is about a beautiful but quite jealous balinese temple-dancer who falls in love with a gamelan-musician. But alas, the musician is in love with her sister ... Along with Vicki Baum's 1937 novel "Tale of Bali", "Legong" is another gem of an early artistic/ethnographic view on Balinese society. In contrast to Baum's novel, the film is hardly known and seldomly seen. The film-museum shows it during a Friedrich-Wilhelm-Murnau-retrospective. During the retrospective other early films of the south-seas will be shown, too: "Bali -- Insel der Dämonen" (1931/33, directed by Murnau, ethnological adviser: Viktor von Plessen and the painter Walter Spies of balinese fame); "Tabu" (1929/31, directed by Murnau). You can download the program-table and the retrospective-leaflet as .pdf-files. "Legong" starts at 21:00h, admission is free. ... Link (0 comments) ... Comment |
