Sadly this disc was not to my liking. It is obvious that a lot of effort went into making it; 3D is good; the dancers are doing their best. The dances are mostly choreographed with great care and do manage to convey emotions. Yet, overall, compared to for example Lord of the dance, all of dances here are much simpler, slower, and not being able to tell a story or any deeper meaning or anything (other than a couple of basic emotions like loneliness, love, and so on). The music was also unlikeable, less melodic and rhythmical but more on the experimental side. The theatrical aspect was used poorly, not to enhance the experience but for shock or random value and will probably leave you wondering "now why did they do that? what is the point of this?". Well, this is just, like, my opinion, man. You may like it.Read full review
I never heard of Pina Bausch unitl i got this movie.She was the original creator of the Werpertal theater.He creative choreography in theater dancing is arty, and odd.her and Filmmaker Wim Wenders were planning to make this .She died and he got discouraged,but the dancers insisted that the movie be made for her tribute.He decide to shoot i in 3d to create and more intimacy of the film with the audience.Pina's favorite number from Cafe Muller is so strange and haunting,based on her favorite cafe.One of the older dancers demonstrate his tap dancing skill with an old jazz tune and scats in the park ,while a doge barks around him .If the dog did something else it would of been an embarrassment to the dancer. Just about all the dance numbers are very surreal.Shot at the theater,In the country .at a park,behind an industrial complex, in a subway train.Worth buying. Read full review
