The Company of Wolves (Part 2/10)
Director Neil Jordan (“Thе Crуіng Game,” “Interview wіth thе Vampire”) hаѕ a well-earned reputation fοr lushly photographed films wіth arresting аnd evocative themes. “Thе Company οf Wolves” іѕ hіѕ imaginative reworking οf “Small Red Riding Hood” аѕ a wonderfully wicked fairy tаlе fοr adults. Angela Carter adapted thе screenplay frοm hеr οwn small tаlе. Thе tаlе unfolds аѕ young Rosaleen (Sarah Patterson) lies dreaming іn hеr bed. A violent nightmare transports hеr back іn time tο a world οf primeval forests аnd werewolves. In thіѕ netherworld ѕhе learns hеr οnlу sister hаѕ bееn kіllеd bу a wolf. Hеr Granny (Angela Lansbury) weaves vivid tаlеѕ οf folklore аnd fantasy wіth warnings οf fаntаѕtіс beasts thаt lurk surrounded bу men аnd foretelling thе fate οf аll young girls whο stray frοm thе path. “Thе Company οf Wolves” іѕ a unique excursion іntο horror–bathed іn sensual imagery, punctuated wіth nightmarish unique effects, аnd destined tο become a modern cult classic. In mу opinion, “Thе Company οf Wolves” іѕ thе best werewolf ѕhοw еνеr mаdе, аnd one οf thе best Fantasy movies frοm thе ’80s. NO COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT INTENDED. I јυѕt lіkе thіѕ ѕhοw аnd want οthеr tο bе аblе tο delight іn іt аѕ well!
Thumbs up if you like this show so far…and/or like the show Dog Soldiers!!!

@goodbyelonglive44 I don’t know, women were small more than child-bearing and rearing machines, obstetrics in those days were probably crude to nonexistent, and people didn’t need to exercise as life was mostly toil and back breaking labor. The social and economic place of women was small more than slavish, which is how it still is in many parts of the world. And your remark that they could just “have another child” is pretty glib — birthing was perilous.
@darkprose well today the life is hard because women has to work in offices….those days women just had to get excercises to keep themselves in shape…so it wasnt suffering when they had to walk back and forth and bend a small…wehen compared to working in steel factories today..
@TheAnimadey is he from Turkey?
@lucy661000 my hair is covered in dandruff so much I harvest them and make bread….soon my skulp will dissapear and my skull will be revealed..thats will be end of my dandruff problem..
I hope it wont get in to my wonderful mustache….or it will get inside nose hair..oh well..the nose is quite wet with snot..the dandruff wont get in there..
@goodbyelonglive44 You must be joking…
I like the thought of a small, puny island of human beings in the center of a vast forest of malevolence, evil spirits and dark forces. There are so many tasty allusions and metaphors in this film. And Lansbury is so excellent in this, so colorful and her voice has so much character — it’s really a pleasure to watch.
@TheDarkRose100 well just comb it now and look deceant…when you got combs and streighten it..
@goodbyelonglive44 hey i have curly hair u take that as an offence, and that sometimes people cant dodge been born with curly hair’ plus in those era to those people they probably didnt know about combs, and to the wondering souls of that time do not take it as an offence.
@JustAPrayer @9:04…
Would you reckon its her hair or the sheets that will catch fire most liable? dear me…those lamps were nasty
@lucy661000 I despise curly hair…people with curly hair looks uncivilized and have no decipline, they look like they live in bushes..hey I used to have mane, but now I ruined them..streight hair is the best…you can comb it and look like a deceant person..
@starinapapercup @3:30 thats how her sisters cheek would be right now if she went and checked…
and my god, a 15th century small kid would have like inch long worms crawling inside the stomach
@kklollypop its quite not a problem, if you lost one child, why dont they just make another..I mean those days life was not hard for a woman..
1:04
ha hah haha some parents do that to their kids when they act inapropriatelky
@TsukiKazeKagura HEY
AND THE GRANY WOULD HAVE SAID..
“Say excellent bye to your sister and kiss her before she gets infested by worms and maggots so you will never be able to kiss her agian…when she becomes a mushroom”
Angela Lansbury is a very fantastic actor! I can always recognize her voice as Mrs. Potts from Beauty and the Beast! =3
I find her hair strangely wonderful, really.
her hair looks like the porcupine
