Arne Sucksdorff
Arne Edvard Sucksdorff (3 February 1917 – 4 May 2001) was a Swedish film director, considered one of cinema's greatest documentary filmmakers. He was particularly celebrated for his visually poetic and scenic nature documentaries. His works include ''Pojken i trädet'' ('' The Boy in the Tree'') and the Academy Award-winning ''Människor i Stad'' ('' Symphony of a City''). Perhaps Sucksdorff's most widely admired work was the internationally acclaimed '' Det Stora Äventyret (1953)'' (''The Great Adventure'') about a year in the outdoors told in semidocumentary fashion from the viewpoint of a farmboy. It is noted for its remarkable photography and authentic scenes of nature, and its appeal to children for its story of domesticated otters. Sucksdorff also appeared as an actor in this film, portraying the father, while his real-life son is an actor as well. The film won the International Prize at the 1954 Cannes Film Festival and the Big Silver Medal (Documentaries and Cultu ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
