The Orchestra (1990)

Director: Zbigniew Rybczynski

Writer: Zbigniew Rybczynski

More info: IMDb

Plot:  This anthology of classical pieces is paired with wordless stories through special effects.



My rating: 7.5/10

Will I watch it again?  Yes.

I had no idea what to expect going into this and I'd only ever heard of Rybczynski and knowing nothing about him except he is a filmmaker.  The music is among the most popular classical music that most people would be familiar with or would've at least heard.  The visuals are so much fun and creative.  Special effects are involved in each story and there's a lot of inventive and cleverness to the visuals but most of all, it's a fun film.  There's no dialogue.  It's beautifully made and it's more than just what you see and hear.  It's actually funny in spots.  There's also a lot of sensuality which surprised me.  This is simply a pleasure to watch and it's readily available to see online.
