Hallelujah the Hills d’Adolfas Mekas　　États-Unis 1963 35mm 82’ nb vostf　　avec Peter Beard, Marty Greenbaum, Sheila Finn, Peggy Steffans, Jerome Hill, Taylor Mead　　Adolfas Mekas arrive aux États-Unis avec son frère Jonas en 1949. Ils fondent Film Culture, une revue consacrée au cinéma indépendant. Nourri par les films qui l’ont précédé, Adolfas réalise Hallelujah the Hills qui témoigne de cette culture en même temps que d’une immense liberté que l’on retrouvera dans tous les films du New American Cinema.　　« Tourné suivant le bon vieux principe d’une idée par plan, ses collines embaument de fraîche ingénuité et de gentillesse rusée. L’effort physique y côtoie hardiment le gag intellectuel. On s’émeut et on rit d’un rien un buisson mal cadré, une banane dans la poche, une majorette dans la neige… »　　Jean-Luc Godard, Les Cahiers du cinéma, 1963　　« Créons un territoire à nous, loin de l’Amérique des buildings et des rêves de puissance, dans des forêts laissées vierges par le tout pouvoir. Vivons l’instant et les sensations, les possibles fugues de l’amitié et de nos rêves […]. Revenons aux fonds précieux de nos rêves et de notre culture (du coutumier aux plus grands films en passant par le folklore), à l’origine de la création, au désir qui, seul, motive l’artiste et lui permet de s’affranchir de diverses contraintes, de libérer l’esprit et le corps, au prix de quelques moments d’anarchie, qui sont le gage d’une virginité féconde. Improvisons notre vie et notre cinéma, jusqu’à (en) mourir pour lui. »　　Frédérique Devaux, « Hallelujah the Hills, Petit traité d’improvisation ludique », livret du DVD édité par Re Voir

　　A lawyer turns judge jury and executioner and goes after a gang, led by a minister's son, that threatens women with videos of them.

　　In the time of Counter-Reformation, a miller and his son come under investigation by a priest of the Inquisition, when rumors spread that their prosperity comes from working with the Devil.　　The Devil's Trap is a film directed by František Vlá?il, based on a novel by Alfréd Technik, adapted by František A. Dvorák and Miloš Kratochvíl. It was the first of three historical dramas that Vlá?il made during the Czech New Wave (technically he isn't really a part of the New Wave, however these films were made during the same era of artistic freedom), preceding his more well known Marketa Lazarová (1967) and Valley of the Bees (1968).　　Set in the late 16th Century during the Catholic Reformation, in the Moravian Karst, situated in what is now the Eastern Czech Republic, it tells the tale of a miller (Vítezslav Vejrazka), and his son Jan (Vít Olmer), who come under suspicion and are investigated by a Jesuit priest of the Inquisition (Miroslav Macháchek), when rumors of witchcraft are spread by the local regent (Cestmír Randa), who is jealous of the miller's prosperity and degree of respect among the local populace.　　As expected from Vlá?il, this film is a stunning experience all the way through. From the opening shot, an ominous manipulation of perspective with a close up of a mangled figure of Christ dominating the foreground against a tiny figure in black walking along the horizon, to the breathtaking confrontational finale inside the vast stalactite filled Karst caverns, it is a wonderful display of visual mastery.　　Maybe not quite as impressive as Marketa Lazarová, but still full of astonishing imagery. As seen from unique angles and distinct points of view which highlight the director's remarkable sense of awareness of framing, motion, and positioning on the emotional and dramatic tone of the scene. The most memorable being a repeated shot where the camera is suspended and launched with speed through the air towards the miller's door.　　The story here is a simple one and I would say more accessible than his later works. With a conventional structure emphasized as much by its plot and characters, than by its expressionistic cinematography or authentic historical detail. The events play out without much surprise, and there is a strong underlying, almost supernatural, mysterious aspect that is left unresolved, in fact barely explored, which is slightly disappointing, but only because it's so fascinating that I wish there was more.　　Acting is great all around. Particularly the villains: Miroslav Macháchek as the priest, casting a sinister and imposing shadow wherever he goes, and Cestmír Randa as the weasel like regent behind all the persecution. While Vít Olmer brings a charismatic leading man presence in his role as the miller's son Jan, in love with the lovely orphan girl Martina (Karla Chadimová), who becomes a dangerous object of rivalry between Jan and other young men of the village.　　The film also features the evocative music of Zden?k Liška (perhaps the most prolific composer of the Czech New Wave). In this his second of eleven collaborations with Vlá?il, his compositions are used sparingly, but to great effect, complimenting but never overpowering a scene. The best example of which can be heard in an amazingly shot celebration and dance sequence at the end of the second act.　　The Devil's Trap might not be a masterpiece, but it is still a strong effort, with a fascinating straightforward story and a glorious historical setting captured beautifully by Vlá?il's unmistakable visual prowess. A fine work that would also be the perfect starter plate to prepare yourself for the challenging feast of Marketa Lazarová or The Valley of the Bees. It even has an easy to digest running time. It's therefore puzzling why this gem remains largely overlooked and ignored.
