Episode 361: The Color of Pomegranates (1961)

We’re looking at Sergei Parajanov’s The Color of Pomegranates.  Released in 1960, the film is something of a look at the life of Armenian singer Sayat Nova told in a very oblique and beautiful way. Director and DP Larry Revene joins Mike to talk about this poetic film.  Daniel Bird, director of The World is a Window: The Making of The Color of Pomegranates and James Steffan, the author of The Cinema of Sergei Parajanov, discuss the making of the film as well as the cuts imposed by Russian censors.
