Greed

1924
Her very first shots, the cat close ups,
the framing of the domestical fight on the stairs,
the pre-buñuelian kissing the nun in the dentist chair,
the marriage combined with funeral,
the Nosferatu choreography of the first wedding night,
the hand fetisjism,
the dream scenes,
the skull eating,
the desert,
the devouring madness.
Happiness makes people go crazy by fear of loosing it or by jealousy.
Nice.

Didn't prevent me from enjoying the sunset right after the screening at the Brussels' filmmuseum.
