Theo Angelopoulos - Living, Loving, Thinking, Again

『ガーディアン』（Associated Press）の記事に曰く、

Theo Angelopoulos, an award-winning Greek filmmaker known for his slow and dreamlike style as a director, has been killed in a road accident while working on his latest movie. He was 76.
Police and hospital officials said Angelopoulos suffered serious head injuries and died at a hospital after being hit by a motorcycle while walking across a road near a movie set near Athens' main port of Piraeus.
The driver, also injured and hospitalised, was later identified as an off-duty police officer.
The accident occurred while Angelopoulos was working on his upcoming movie "The Other Sea."
Angelopoulos had won numerous awards for his movies, mostly at European film festivals, during a career that spanned more than 40 years.
In 1995, he won the Grand Jury Prize at the Cannes Film Festival for "Ulysses' Gaze," starring American actor Harvey Keitel.

テオ・アンゲロプロス *1が希臘のアテネでバイクに撥ねられ死去。アンゲロプロス的とはいえないかも知れないけれど、映画的な死に方だとは言えるかも知れない。
そういえば、『エレニの旅』をゼロ年代のベスト・ワンに選んだりしていたのだった。アンゲロプロスの映画で観ているのは『エレニの旅』のほか、『旅藝人の記録』、『シテール島への船出』、『こうのとり、たちずさんで』、『ユリシーズの瞳』、『永遠と一日』で、『アレクサンダー大王』を初めとする重要な作品をまだ観ていないということに気づく。
