About This Movie
T.S. Eliot's 'The Waste Land' from 1988 is a unique documentary that dives deep into the atmosphere of post-World War I disillusionment. You've got Michael Gough, Edward Fox, and Eileen Atkins lending their voices to Eliot's haunting verses, which adds a certain gravitas to the whole experience. It’s not just about the poem, though; scholars like Frank Kermode and Peter Ackroyd dissect the layers of meaning and the cultural impact, making it quite dense yet engaging. The pacing is reflective, allowing the weight of Eliot's words to sink in. You really feel the societal malaise of that era, and the performances are just spot on—definitely adds a richness to the text that’s hard to replicate.
