The Simple-Minded Murderer - Heaven Shine
Thoughts On: The Simple-Minded Murder (Den Enfaldige Mördaren, 1982)
A young man with speech difficulties is preyed upon by the evil powers of his rural town.
Heart-breaking but beautiful, with essence of photogénie, The Simple-Minded Murderer needs no words to describe or explain it. So tonally rich with such sumptuous cinematography and an opulent soundscape, this paints a haunting portrait of good vs evil. And though the reality of the struggle is bleak, the heavens shine down upon the moral fallen. I urge you to give this a go. A great film to leave you speechless, no doubt.
