| Brief Description: | The Girl in Black "reveals Elli Lambetti as an actress of truly tragic
stature." The story of a young Athenian writer on holiday who falls in
love with a girl of impoverished gentility and is unable to respond to
her. A disaster provoked by spiteful peasants shocks him into a new
awareness of his own involvement in life. "The film has a simplicity
and a vibrancy that make it stand out from even the best of foreign
films. We experience the emotions and temperament of a new film artist
who is trying to find his own way," wrote Pauline Kael. Greek with
English subtitles. |
