Enter a dazzling, mysterious world of the supernatural courtesy of "The Saragossa Manuscript," a magical text discovered during the Napoleonic Wars by a pair of opposing soldiers. Capt. Alphonse van Worden lives out the book's intricate, devilish storylines as he embarks on a journey across scenic Spain, now populated with ghosts, alluring demons, debauched royalty, and mystical priests. Spanning centuries and nations, the manuscript's reach encompasses a wide array of stories both humorous and horrifying, gleeful and grotesque, before the final chilling revelations bring this one of a kind book to a close.

Englisch A very interesting film, which definitely deserved restoration and obtaining a version that is almost three hours long. It is an example of how it is possible to shoot a historical epic that will not be uninteresting, boring, unnecessarily artificial, and serious. This is light, whimsical, and furthermore, it is also fantastic and, above all, very good. ()
