Peter Watkins’ Edvard Munch: Diagnosing panic and dread

Peter Watkins’ Edvard Munch: Diagnosing panic and dread:

"The painter is the subject of left-wing British director Peter Watkins’ 1974 film, Edvard Munch, recently released on DVD by New Yorker Video. Relying on a fragmented narrative derived from Munch’s diaries, including recurring (and sometimes repetitious) images from the painter’s trauma-filled childhood, the film primarily covers a 10-year period from 1884 to 1894, when Munch was age 21 to 31."
