During his lifetime the late Baron Thyssen-Bornemisza acquired a collection of over fifty drawings - largely of set and costume designs - reflecting the theatre of the first half of the twentieth century, and particularly the ballet, during what was surely its most exciting and innovative period. Twenty-two of these drawings are by Leon Bakst, perhaps the most famous of all theatrical designers, whose revolutionary designs for Diaghilev's Ballet Russes played such a major part in the impact that company made during the years 1909-1929.

We can still have opinions on whether or not Goncharov is responsible for the ruin that fell upon Andre, or if it was coming to Andre all along and he became business partners with Goncharov because they were two sides of the same coin. Despite what the screencaps and gifsets imply, the most canon their relationship gets is the lingering looks of what could have been had they chosen different lives. Im pretty sure the original intent was about if they had chosen to be peaceful men instead of not just men who are violent as an adjective, but men who are violence as a noun. This fits into the larger theme of the movie about how the choices everyone makes are what lead to their downfalls; that life isnt just happening to us, that we are responsible for the happenings in our lives. Personally I think its the fact that the movie showed not the cruelty, but the tragedy of violence and what we throw away to pursue it is what kept it from gaining more widespread popularity. Despite coming out in 1973 just before the Vietnam War ended, it also alienated those with anti-war leanings due to the empathy it lends to those who would be villains in any other movie. That they, most prominently Goncharov, are not just victims of their own violence as well, but often also their first victims. Sometimes in an attempt to survive, sometimes because they choose to go down that path.
Katya and Katarina is canon tho, dont worry.
Alr. I'm sad now.
When I first entered Tumblr there was this post about a mafia gay tragic story and I really wanted to watch it.
I put it into my watch list.
And just a few hours ago. My friend told me it wasn't real.
LOOK. IT'S ON MY LIST

Since it's the anniversary of the Goncharov Renaissance, there's something I've been sitting on for a while:
We've all discussed Katya's last name to bits (does she have one? Which is it? Feminine form or masculine form? Why?) but the thing that intrigues me is her first name.
See, Katya is a diminutive of the Russian for of Catherine. And Catherine -
Tumblr media
Which is pretty obvious, what with the way Scorsese writes women, and most of Katya's costumes. It IS interesting to look at how far it applies: How Goncharov tries to keep her away from all the dangerous business. How that's why she's so cut off from his life, how she both tries to free herself from that AND struggles to keep her pristine image alive. How no matter what, her white fur coat ends up spattered with blood.
But what's way more interesting to me is -
Tumblr media
because oooooooughhh. "Each of the two", in a movie that is so FUNDAMENTALLY about the clash of two cultures. Katya, whose last name ia in question because it's unclear whether she sees herself more as belonging to her husband's or her brother's family. Whether she wants to be proud of her Russian identity or adjust to Italian mores. Katya, who TO ME is making the most important choice of anyone in the movie, having to pick (essentially - I know it's more complicated than that) between Goncharov and Sophia.
(Katya who is BISEXUAL. Each of the two gsfagagdfaghs get it yeah yeah just kidding UNLESS...)
But like. Hecate is the goddess of crossroads and borders (the way Katya is often framed as literally the point dividing opposing concepts). She's the goddess of witchcraft, and the henchmen totally call her a witch (sure yes misogyny blah blah).
She's also a chthonic deity, which MIGHT be a stretch to call important in a movie where pretty much everyone has blood on their hands, but this + goddess of the moon has my EARS PERKED at the boat scene.
Tumblr media
the framing......... the clear moon not yet full. Katya the only other bright spot. And the psychopomp vibes of there being a boat and a dying person and one who's ferrying them onwards..... yeagh
But if none of that convinces you, take a look at this:
Tumblr media
this is from that conversation she has with Andrey where every goddamn sentence has at least two meanings.
And yeah. She's reflected twice in the shop window behind her. She's literally being triple-bodied Hecate. Getting the glass panes and the cameras lined up for that must have been a right pain.
I do think that's a pretty good hint that this parallel? It's intentional.
