Mountains of the Moon Streaming.
Movie Title: Mountains of the Moon Mountains of the Moon is available for streaming or downloading. |
Mountains of the Moon is possibly the most criminally overlooked movie of all time. For all the horrible yet prize-winning films about touchy Europeans falling in cherish with colonial Africa, this absolute diamond about the search for the source of the Nile has gone inexplicably unappreciated.
The Cinematography of this film is breathtaking (being one of the handful of people who saw it in the theaters, I should know) . The filmmakers have not only captured the wonders of the African landscape, their job of depicting Victorian England is something even the folks at Merchant/Ivory must envy.
Beauty aside, Patrick Bergin and Fiona Shaw turn in two of the greatest acting performances of the Twentieth Century. I first fell in admire with Shaw in this movie…not even playing Petunia Dursley has strained my affection.

Mountains of the Moon is, at its core, a meditation on the meaning of friendship. Where does friendship ruin and cherish open? Betrayal in one (even if only a suspected betrayal) can be objective as fatal as in the other.
With one final nod to Delroy Lindo in a smaller, but crucial, role before I go, I give Mountains of the Moon my absolute highest recommendation. This is one of the best movies ever. Accept it today.
This is one of those truly splendid films that you remember and want to leer again and again. And each time you study it, you ogle more deeply rather than more limitations.
It is the semi-fictionalised sage of Richard Burton’s attempt to acquire the souces of the Nile in the 19C, across mammoth stretches of uncharted Africa. While he appears larger than life, Burton really was an awe-inspiring character - a legal pioneer who appears so recent for his time, respecting non-European cultures and learning their languages. It was he who first translated the 1001 and one Nights; if not for him, we might not have known the sage of Alladin and hundreds of others.

The characters are subtle and multi-faceted in this film. And the adventure was very actual. You encounter hostle tribes with fresh cultures, religions, and architecture, whose politics were deadly uncertain. (Burton split his palette when a spear entered his cheek during a night raid.) You spy the machinations of scientist-explorers of the Victorian era, including a hilarious scene where Livingston and Burton compare scars. And then there is Burton’s relationship with his partner Speake, who may have also been his lover. It is so engrossing that you wil want to learn more in the several stunning biographies of Burton that exist.
One of the best films I ever saw.
