Morris:A Life with Bells On Hollywood Movie Review :
Great movie, hilarious,especially if you are an Anglophile. The actors do great characterizations. The scenes are well shot, especially those depicting California. The movie was well accepted by the Morris dance and folk-dance community at the Seattle Folklife festival and the Seattle International Film Festival.
We need to see more Morris dancing like that done by the OCM. If you enjoy folk dance you must see this film. If you enjoy England you must see this film. If you enjoy laughing you must see this film.This film is a mocumentery in the tradition of This Is SpinalTap, and A Mighty Wind. This is all filler, the movie was shot in the wettest summer in england, on a low budget. The film makers did wonders in poor conditions and with little to work with.I couldn't quite make out if some of the characters in this story actually exist, although it seems some did, or the Morris group does...? It would be nice to be sure.
The mocumentary is masterly. So very funny. Packed with irony. It wasn't given a full showing at our cinema, it wasn't shown at the best times and we have 3 screens. A great shame as it deserved a much wider showing. If there's a problem with audiences, it could be thatMorris dancing isn't all that much seen in England, these days. In my London youth, I only ever saw it once, and that was during a university festival when they had some folk dancing in a large open space in the city. I really didn't know what to make of it. It was only when we moved to the West Country that I realised it was still pursued in some places. I guess it has a name with those who haven't seen it of being a bit strange with all those handkerchiefs and bells, so the cinema, even here in the West Country, thought it wouldn't get an audience.
I imagine it wasn't well publicised. A great shame. It's just the sort of hilarious movie most English people are inclined to like so why's the movie being so coy? Sterling performances from everyone, with a special mention for the deadpan "interviewer", the aggrievedMorris dancing hero and his mates, the Beach Boys type Los Angeles group wonderfully sending themselves up, and Derek Jacobi brilliant as always, this time as the insufferably pompous Morris association officer.If you want a good laugh and to see some romantic English countryside and old customs, don't miss this!tags:
