![]() ![]() He subconsciously wants to be the one in his mother’s bed. ![]() It suggests there’s a latent Oedipal jealousy in Hamlet’s fury with his uncle. In the 20th century, a Freudian interpretation has grown popular. Nonetheless, there’s a raw resentment between the mother and son that audiences have debated for centuries. He is told, eventually, by his father’s ghost to leave Gertrude to Heaven. This twist works on multiple levels, including by embracing what has been a much debated subtext read by some into the relationship between Hamlet and Gertrude: He blames her for being indifferent to his father’s death-“Frailty, thy name is woman!”-and ponders openly whether she was complicit in his murder. Worse still, she begged Fjölnir to also kill her son who was then but a boy. “I see you’ve inherited your father’s simpleness,” she mocks before laughing at her son and revealing it was she who convinced Fjölnir to slay his own brother. At first she tries to ease his anger through a mother’s love, and when that doesn’t work she tries a different tact: she becomes brutally honest. In the most perverse scene in the movie, Amleth finally confronts his mother in her bedroom and attempts to convince her to run away with him. Take for example, the relationship between Amleth and his ultimately not-so-dear mother, Gudrún. And by going back to that earlier, more medieval telling Eggers, co-writer Sjón, and Skarsgård (who is also a producer on The Northman) were able to establish an easy through-line for the audience to follow, even as their movie deconstructed that line in order to examine elements of this story that are far more psychologically debased and primal. The story of Amleth is the inspiration of Hamlet-an anglicized rewording that moves a single letter from the end of the prince’s name to the beginning. So it’s a really ancient tale, and it leant itself beautifully to the type of movie we wanted to make, because it’s a timeless, classic revenge story.”Īll of which is true. “But Saxo Grammaticus most likely based Prince Amleth of Jutland, which we based our movie on, on an even older Icelandic saga from the ninth or 10th century. “Shakespeare based his Hamlet on Saxo Grammaticus’ Prince Amleth from the 12th century,” Skarsgård tells us in a separate interview, citing a Danish historian and theologian whose tale of the vengeful nephew prince is the oldest complete version of this story we have today. However, the actual source material is far older. It informs everything from William Shakespeare’s greatest play, Hamlet, to The Lion King. Indeed, Eggers told us months ago that he felt liberated to indulge his world-building eccentricities in the Viking saga because he knew audiences would be inherently familiar with the structure of a story in which the son avenges a murdered father, who in turn had died by his uncle’s hand. Nicole Kidman’s Queen Mother Who Is Not Left to HeavenĮggers and his collaborators have not been coy about how The Northman is intentionally descended from a tale that predates Shakespeare. However, as with his finales for The Witch and The Lighthouse, there is more going on than meets the eye about Amleth’s fate and why his end is a happy one, if only for him and his culture. This is the end of almost every revenger’s tragedy and it is in-keeping with the ancient Hamlet tale that The Northman takes inspiration from. Now their corpses are likewise left to molder, unwept and unsung.Īs with Robert Eggers’ other two films, the actual plot mechanics are quite clear. Beneath their vainglorious ends also lies the body of a woman they each claim to love, Gudrún ( Nicole Kidman): the mother Amleth swore to avenge but instead slaughtered alongside her youngest son Gunnar (Elliott Rose). ![]() However, the prince without a kingdom is also slain, stabbed through what I believe is the heart and left to simmer by a lake of fire that both men recognize as Hel. But was any of it worthwhile?īefore the credits roll, Uncle Fjölnir (Claes Bang) is well and truly dead by his nephew’s hand his head cleaved clean off with a massive stroke of Amleth’s arm. I will avenge you, father! I will save you, mother! I will kill you, Fjölnir! By the time The Northman concludes, Alexander Skarsgård’s wayward Viking prince has accomplished two out of the three. This article contains massive THE NORTHman spoilers.

(5) Allora, pensando a le sue parole, mi parea che m'avesse parlato molto oscuramente sì ch'io mi sforzava di parlare, e diceali queste parole: «Che è ciò, segnore, che mi parli con tanta oscuritade?». (4) Then I seemed to know who he was, for he was calling me in the same way that many times before in my sleep he had called me and as I watched him, it seemed to me that he was weeping piteously, and he seemed to be waiting for me to say something to him so, gathering courage, I began to address him, saying: "Lord of all virtues, why do you weep?" And he said these words to me: Ego tanquam centrum circuli, cui simili modo se habent circumferentie partes tu autem non sic. E quelli mi dicea queste parole: «Ego tanquam centrum circuli, cui simili modo se habent circumferentie partes tu autem non sic». (4) Allora mi parea che io lo conoscesse, però che mi chiamava così come assai fiate ne li miei sonni m'avea già chiamato: e riguardandolo, parvemi che piangesse pietosamente, e parea che attendesse da me alcuna parola ond'io, assicurandomi, cominciai a parlare così con esso: «Segnore de la nobiltade, e perché piangi tu?». (3) About half-way through my sleep I seemed to see in my room a young man sitting near the bed dressed in the whitest of garments and, from his expression, he seemed to be deep in thought, watching me where I lay after looking at me for some time, he seemed to sigh and to call to me, saying these words: Fili mi, tempus est ut pretermictantur simulacra nostra. (3) Avvenne quasi nel mezzo de lo mio dormire che me parve vedere ne la mia camera lungo me sedere uno giovane vestito di bianchissime vestimenta, e pensando molto quanto a la vista sua, mi riguardava là ov'io giacea e quando m'avea guardato alquanto, pareami che sospirando mi chiamasse, e diceami queste parole: «Fili mi, tempus est ut pretermictantur simulacra nostra». (2) After my sobbing had quieted down somewhat, I went to my bedroom where I could lament without being heard and there, begging pity of the lady of courtesy, and saying, "Love, help your faithful one," I fell asleep like a little boy crying from a spanking. (2) E poi che alquanto mi fue sollenato questo lagrimare, misimi ne la mia camera, là ov'io potea lamentarmi sanza essere udito e quivi, chiamando misericordia a la donna de la cortesia, e dicendo «Amore, aiuta lo tuo fedele», m'addormentai come un pargoletto battuto lagrimando. ![]() ![]() (1) Now, returning to my subject, let me say that no sooner was my bliss denied me than I was so stricken with anguish that, withdrawing from all company, I went to a solitary place to bathe the earth with bitterest tears. Vita nuova (XII, 1-17) (1) Ora, tornando al proposito, dico che poi che la mia beatitudine mi fue negata, mi giunse tanto dolore, che, partito me da le genti, in solinga parte andai a bagnare la terra d'amarissime lagrime.

It doesn't have to rely on crazy gimmicks when it stars a time-traveling piece of gray goo that can eat anything it comes in contact with! Certain stages are more danger-filled than others, but for the most part, the only thing you have to worry about are finding more small objects so you can grow and eat bigger things.Ĭasual and extremely entertaining, Tasty Planet: Back for Seconds is filled with a lot of straight-up fun. You can select timed mode to give yourself a bit of incentive to move fast, but apart from that, your only real dangers are creatures larger than you that might give chase, knocking your size down a bit with each hit. The gameplay isn't very challenging, but to be honest, it's not supposed to be. If you've got a friend nearby, sit down and collect things together. One great new feature of Tasty Planet: Back for Seconds is the inclusion of a two player cooperative mode. Comparing Back for Seconds to the original Tasty Planet, you'll find quicker, more dynamic gameplay with plenty of new things to call it a sequel. The game shares a similar "collect small things" design concept, but really its charm (and 2D point of view) are all its own. ![]() All of this takes place across 50 or so levels, some of which are unlocked as you play, and four different gameplay modes.Īnalysis: It wouldn't be possible to discuss Tasty Planet: Back for Seconds without mentioning Katamari Damacy or The Wonderful End of the World. You'll also find special stages that task you with escaping mazes or collecting a number of one kind of item. There are six time periods to work through, each with its own unique things to eat, from the smallest piece of candy or scarab beetle to the largest dinosaur or satellite orbiting the Earth. The time traveling mechanism allows for a nice variety of settings in Tasty Planet 2. It's extremely satisfying to fight with obstacles and run from enemies only to turn around and gobble them up a few moments later. A handy arrow points to the closest, largest object you can collect, and whenever an item is small enough to be eaten, you'll see a set of small icons surrounding it. Once you reach a certain diameter, the camera bobs upward and gives you a wider view. Your size is constantly monitored at the top left corner of the screen. No jumping, no climbing, just moving and devouring. This all happens with a simple interface that uses either the mouse or keys for movement. ![]() With each item nommed, the goo grows larger, allowing it to pick up even bigger items in its never-ending quest to keep eating. Like some human babies you might know, the protagonist in Tasty Planet will eat anything smaller than it is, gobbling up objects without pausing to chew. ![]() As you can guess, this is a dangerous thing to let loose on the Earth, but give it a time machine and all of the past and future could be in quite a pickle. Tasty Planet: Back for Seconds from Dingo Games plays on this compulsion and puts you in control of a blob of gray goo that can eat anything smaller than it is. We're not so much interesting in gathering buildings as we are looking at them, but if buildings were pint-sized, you can bet they'd fill our pockets like lint-covered jellybeans. For some reason, everyone loves collecting things that are smaller than they are. |
