The Colour of Pomegranates

Zavvi

Sergei Parajanov's celebrated masterpiece paints an astonishing portrait of the 18th century Armenian poet Sayat Nova, the 'King of Song'. Parajanov's aim was not a conventional biography but a cinematic expression of his work, resulting in an extraordinary visual poem. Key moments in his subject's life are illustrated through a series of exquisitely orchestrated tableaux filled with rich colour and stunning iconography, each scene a celluloid painting alive with stylised movement.Special Features:Disc 1Martin Scorsese's The Film Foundation restoration of the Armenian version (The Parajanov Cut)The Russian version (The Yutkevich Cut) prepared using The Film Foundation's restored materialOptional annotated commentary on the Armenian Cut by James Steffen, author of 'he Cinema of Sergei Parajanov and advisor on the new restorationOptional audio commentary on the Yutkevich Cut by Levon AbrahamyanDisc 2New 2K restoration of Sergei Parajanov's short film Kiev Frescoe with optional annotated commentary by Daniel BirdPoetry, Pomegranates and Parajanov: A new appreciation by Daniel BirdPomegranates Rediscovered: Cecilia Cenciarelli of Bologna Cineteca on the multi-national effort to save The Colour of PomegranatesFree Parajanov!
