Join us for this first part of a continuous series of Grazes wherein we look at extant popcorn classics from a whole century ago. For this episode, we examined the fascinating cinematic output of Japan, Scandinavia, Italy, France and the Soviet Union in 1921, as well as giving a precis of the growth of film from its first appearance in the mid 1890s up to that point.
Forthcoming episodes this year will focus on films from Weimar Germany and Czechslovakia, followed by our Anglophone Silent edition.
Filmography (all from 1921):
‘Jiraya The Hero’ (dir. Shōzō Makino)
‘Souls On The Road’ (dir. Minoru Murata)
‘The Murder of General Gryaznov’ (dir. Ivane Perestiani)
‘The Phantom Carriage’ (dir. Victor Sjöström)
‘Johan’ (dir. Mauritz Stiller)
'Markens Grøde' (dir. Gunnar Sommerfeldt)
'Hamlet' (dir. Svend Gade & Heinz Schall)
‘L’uomo Meccanico’ (dir. André Deed)
‘El Dorado’ (dir. Marcel L’Herbier)
‘Fievre’ (dir. Louis Delluc)
‘L’atlantide’ (dir. Jacques Feyder)
The soundtrack includes Phil Graves’ arrangements of ‘1921’ by The Who, ’The Sheik of Araby’ by Harry B. Smith, Francis Wheeler and Ted Snyder, ‘La Catedral’ by Agustín Barrios and ‘100 Years Ago’ by The Rolling Stones
