Review of The Storm-Tamer (1947) by Joel A — 10 Mar 2016
A largely unknown French Short film made by French Cinema Pioneer Jean Epstein. The story of young woman concerned for her partner heading off to sea with the concern of a storm looming.
As the storm approaches she sorts after a local mystic who is known to be able to calm the wind & water.
Although extremely beautiful this film is quite haunting & truly has some of the most incredible shots of the wind & waves at work & the shows the ocean in such a menacing light. It's an artistic piece but quite compelling.
