Regarded as one of the great 'lost' masterpieces of international cinema, Zoltn Huszrik's 1971 film is finally availabe for the first time on DVD. A surreal and highly stylized adaptation of the early 20th century writings of author Gyula Krdy, the film depicts the life, loves and memories of traveller and womanizer Szindbd (played by the great Hungarian actor Zoltn Latinovits), as he contemplates his life of hedonism and impropriety and who tries to recover his great lost love before he dies. Evoking time and memory to extraordinary effect, Szindbd is a filmic elegy that is both lyrical and surreal - an experience unlike anything in modern cinema.
The skilful blending of drawn animation and computer-generated imagery excited anime fans when this science fiction mystery was released in 1995: many enthusiasts believe Ghost suggests what the future of anime will be, at least in the short term. The film is set in the not-too-distant future, when an unnamed government uses lifelike cyborgs or "enhanced" humans for undercover work. One of the key cyborgs is The Major, Motoko Kusanagi, who resembles a cross between The Terminator and a Playboy centrefold. She finds herself caught up in a tangled web of espionage and counterespionage as she searches for the mysterious superhacker known as "The Puppet Master." Mamoru Oshii directs with a staccato rhythm, alternating sequences of rapid-fire action (car chases, gun battles, explosions) with static dialogue scenes that allow the characters to sort out the vaguely mystical and rather convoluted plot. Kusanagi's final quote from I Corinthians suggests that electronic evolution may compliment and eventually supplant organic evolution. The minor nudity, profanity, and considerable violence would earn Ghost in the Shell at least a PG rating. --Charles Solomon
