Behind-the-scenes Production of "Spring Forest"

It was banned from distribution and screening in Italy and West Germany for 20 years. Director Murguia was also forbidden to make any more movies, so he finally became a TV director in a small Italian TV station. Since then, no films have been published.

The whole story is simple, the picture is fresh and beautiful, and only three small actors play it. The ending is a bit like the ending of a classic Spanish movie-the hero finally stabbed the heroine to death with a dagger. Of course, we don't know why the director asked three children (so to speak, children) so young at that time to play this erotic film, even adults would feel bold. Perhaps it is really to reflect the purity and spotless of the film, and in fact it has achieved the effect. This movie is by no means any regular erotic films you have seen, such as tinto brass. The whole film is beautiful and elegant, the music is touching, and the picture is fresh and refined. If it is not an erotic film, it is definitely an excellent and beautiful children's art film.

The two little heroines in this film are also very influential. Nora Wendell later became the Italian heroine in the 1980s, and played the leading role in antonioni's films and Ferini's films, which was also her first film. Eva ionesco, the only daughter of the famous French erotic photographer Elena Ionisco, is recognized by fans all over the world as the most beautiful woman in the world. The two performed very well in this pure erotic film. However, the biggest reason why this film has been banned for many years is that there are too many naked scenes, especially several teenagers, which is also the reason why this film has become a legendary film.

Version 2

▲ The story actually happened in summer, from [0 1: 10:50] ("One day we noticed that autumn began." )。 As for why it is translated into "spring forest", I think the word "spring" here should not refer to spring in a narrow sense, but to "spring of life", that is, adolescence. (Japanese translation is "longing for love", which may be the meaning. )

▲[00:34:24] The color of the film suddenly changed (yellow) and one frame was distorted. It shows that this film may have been magnetized several times, or something may have been deleted in the middle.

▲ The whole film was beautifully shot, but the crew didn't seem to be equipped with a rocker arm, so most of the deep movements were realized by zooming, which led to a lack of space, which is also a pity.

▲ The shots in the film are mainly medium and long shots, but they are not boring at all.

▲ The music is fresh and natural, and it takes care of the background of the story (in the forest). The film repeats the main theme of the title from time to time, giving people a cheerful and lively feeling as a whole. However, Iro always appears in a strange melody, which seems to be some kind of hint.

▲ There are not many sex scenes in the film.

▲ Personally, I feel that the VHS version of Japan has also been deleted because there are many inconsistencies in the film. (The film is called 96min, but the version we can find is only 90min at most, and a foreign website even nominally has 127min. )

It uses games close to reality to express reality. The actors are all underage children, but they have made a true and thorough interpretation of jealousy, ambition, abnormal love, possessiveness, arrogance and confusion, which makes people unsustainable. This is obviously an adult world, but the children rushed in without hesitation. The repeated appearance of that German shepherd dog is always accompanied by a strange vocal music, and fear attacks the whole body instantly.
