Of course, I can’t give any advice to anyone. To be more sincere, when After the “Treasure Island”, certainly, I should mention “Three Musketeers”, which, nowadays, seems to be too thick and too slow, and if you’re used to reading I started thinking of this topic, the following books came to my mind. on your cell phone, you can even get irritated from it.

At first, the one perceives it as a story of a rebelled merchant in Germany of Luther’s magic story, but later it can be realized that this book describes a man’s life in all times. A story tells about a times. I liked Odysseus. He was quite a tricky one, but, nevertheless, books are price that a country might pay for offending an ordinary written about this kind of persons. man. Then, in one summer, when struggling with “War and Peace”, by accident, I found “Cossacks” and “Hadji Murad” in another volume of Tolstoy, and after finalizing reading, I re-read them again and again.

It’s undisputable, that falling in love with a fiction literature starts from the very first book that has touched one’s heart, and, perhaps, this happens at the age of 12-13 years. Now, as well, I remembered some books which I read in that age. I think, I was reading more then, or to be more precise, I was getting more pleasure from reading.

At that time, I had one book of such a kind – “Treasure Is- land” by Stevenson. It was a Georgian edition of an adventure library, and was published together with “The Black Arrow”. I still think that there is no other book in the world, the first and The book which made me think and even scared me a bit was “Moby-Dick” by Melville. This book, as I have been strongly influenced by several well, will be kept in my memory forever, it had a great impact on me. When I first read a story of a wale novels, among them, by completely denied and an adventurous captain Akabi, I had no clue of allegories at that time. It might be that I know noth- and destructive “Mateo Falcone” of Prosper ing about them at present too, but the sea and sea-men described in this book make a reader to realize Merimee and by extremely positive “The something eternal or even perceive infinity. I know many other books, that are thicker than “Moby- 40 Dick”, but I could not find any other one, which would be so boundless and written in such a manner. Blue Hotel” of Stephen Crane, as well as, by Copyright 2012 the novels of Faulkner. “Kalmasoba” by the prince John, which has not been published in full edition yet, is my eternally favorite reading. Wandering of two Georgians Then, surprisingly, I read “Ulysses”, to be in a tiny country holding a portrait of an all times renowned Georgian more precise, I have read only its first book and an encyclopedia, will always be entertaining. It’s difficult to find anything so uniquely Georgian, so hilarious, and at the same time so tragic. translated by Niko Kiasashvili. I am not intellectual at all, I did not get any pleasure I enjoyed reading “Oliver Twist” too. Even at present, I use to look through from reading it, but I realized that writing some separate passages of this novel. I have read “Oliver Twist” only af- can be a great craft as well. Therefore, I read ter watching the movie and was quite astonished from its effect. The book “Ulysses”, together with its comments, in is far sadder, sad, but wonderful. I presume, Dickens needed to create the main characters only for the purposes of making up ingenious minor heros. Russian, - the translation was done not long after “Perestroyka”.

I think, I was reading it for the whole year. I was pondering over it in a way as a game of chess is being analyzed. It was followed by the other books then, but still, it’s my favorite one.

Sunrise is the first American Film of Murnau. The style of the director expressed in “Faust”, “Nosferatu”, “A Symphony of Horror” is different from the German expressionism. In Ger- man movies, the metaphysics of horror is reflected, the tragic intuitions are brought to life. It’s an emanation of the German spirit placed between the two wars. “Sunrise” is about the tragic nature and, at the same time, the light- ness of existence. Here, the antinomies of the human nature are determinants, the struggle of the female and male beginnings and all is expressed in vir- Sunrise 1927 tuosic mastering of space, lighting reJisori fridrix vilhelm murnau and light, itself.

The film is the part of Éric Rohmer’s didactic trilogy. The trilogy, and Rohmer, in general, has nothing to do with didactics. Rohmer is considered to be the follower of Balzac and, perhaps, this cycle reminds us about the human comedy of the writer. The character of the film, Jean-Louis, meets a woman on a mass, with whom he falls in love from the first sight. He spends a night under one roof with another woman, the ex-lover of his friend. Rohmer’s characters, usually, are in love with one person, have flirt with another, but return to the first one again. The characters of the film are intellectuals and their rhetoric is built upon philosophic-literary quotations. No action takes place there. This is the film-reflection, which follows the flow of consciousness of the main character. The characters analyze all the possible options of development of the situation. The struggle between sexes is the struggle for philosophic dilemmas as well. They meet each other After 5 years, when they are already married. Both of them switch off from the reality for a moment and mentally return to the night, which they spent together. Life is like a philosophic dilemma, - everything is simpler, but not less brilliant.

I don’t know why I am finishing my narration with this apocalyp- tic picture. It does not match my internal mood at all. I wished to choose “The Devil Wears Prada” or “Sex and the City”, but in this case, I would not approve the choice from the professional point of view. I like a lot the film “Melancholia”, as well as the actors who participate in this movie. Here, I think, Trier, with his characteristic, exclusive style, is honest, just like in “Antichrist“. In Trier’s work, the history of the apocalypses of the Earth is represented in visualization of the music of Wagner. A lot has been written about this. Some consider that opera is more organic for a cinema screen, than for a stage. In regards to “Melancholia”, un- doubtedly, this is the case.

The experience of the national school, namely, of Davit Kakabadze has been interestingly transformed in his works. Sensualism, that is characteristic for French Im- pressionism, was added to the vision typical for Davit Kakabadze (Figurativism).

As the director of the National Museum Davit Lortki- panidze said, the works of Guram (Khita) Kutateladze coincide with the difficult period of Georgian art and consciousness, with the time when Soviet realism was dominant. However the painter is the rare exception who totally rejects the dogmas of this pseudo art. According to the abovementioned, the exhibition, once again, reminds us about the ability of an artist to outrun the time and maintain freedom even at the regime conditions. 116 Copyright 2012
