MOST would like to invite you to another movie projection:

TITLE: "Siberian Lady Macbeth", (Sibirska Ledi Magbet) by Andrzej Wajda, 1961
DATE: Friday, Dec 7, 2001
TIME: 7:30 PM
PLACE: MIT Room 4-237 (http://whereis.mit.edu/bin/map?locate=bldg_4)

LANGUAGE: Serbian with subtitles in English
GENRE: Romance

DESCRIPTION:
Andrzej Wajda shot this extraordinary film, also known as Fury is a Woman,
in Yugoslavia, during a period of self-imposed political exile. Siberian
Lady Macbeth ranks with Akira Kurosawa's Throne of Blood as one of the most
successful screen translations of Shakespeare ever made.   An unsung classic
of Eastern European cinema, with a powerful musical score by Shostakovich.
With Olivera Markovic and Ljuba Tadic.

In what might be termed "Russo-Shakespearean noir", a ruthless woman's
adulterous affair with a drifter sets in motion a chain reaction of murder
and deception in a remote village in 19th-Century Mtsensk.
