# The Abysmal Brute (film)

The Abysmal Brute is a 1923 American silent sports drama film directed by Hobart Henley and starring Reginald Denny, Mabel Julienne Scott, and Charles K. French. It is an adaptation of the 1911 novel The Abysmal Brute by Jack London. The film received mixed reception, with one reviewer stating that the film was not a perfect adaptation of the novel. Comedic scenes, that were not in the novel, were added to the film by leading actor Reginald Denny.

## Plot

A boxer raised in the mountains by his father comes to San Francisco and enjoys great success, but his lack of social skills means he struggles to romance the socialite with whom he has fallen in love.

## Production

The Minneapolis Star wrote that the film is not like the book, with only the name of the book and characters being used. The reviewer mentioned that romance is only a small part of the novel and that there is "painfully dragged-in comedy relief" in the film. The actor Reginald Denny added comedic scenes to the film which he said was "'the hokum' of an adaptation of Jack London's boxing story". Carl Laemmle "dedicated the film to The American Legion because of the wonderful spirit of clean athletics engendered in young American manhood by the war and the subsequent veteran activities".
AllMovie said, "Since his British accent remained conveniently unheard during the silent era, Reginald Denny made a wonderful all-American hero". Virginia Valli was originally meant to have the role of Mabel Julienne Scott. Shannon Day and Mae Busch were reported to be in the cast at first, but neither actress appeared in the film. Multiple boxers, who were known prizefighters, appeared in the film. The film was originally scheduled to premiere in the fall of 1922, but the release was delayed to film The Shock.

## Reception

The Pennsylvania School Journal recommended the film for Children's Book Week from November 11 to November 17, 1923.
The Educational Screen said, "A slow-moving, but sincere and well-acted filming of one of Jack London's tales". The Yonkers Herald wrote that women will enjoy Denny's "pleasing personality" and that men will enjoy "the masculinity of the story" and its "series of thrilling prize-ring sequences".

# Gavagai (film)

Gavagai is a 2016 Norwegian drama film directed by Rob Tregenza. The film was acclaimed by critics.

## Reception

Gavagai garnered acclaim from film critics. Rotten Tomatoes reports 92% approval among 12 critics, and the film has a 91/100 average on Metacritic. Sheri Linden of The Hollywood Reporter stated that the film's use of poetry "[casts] a fresh light on such familiar movie tropes as the listless traipse of modern-day searchers through overstocked supermarket aisles [...] From morning birdsong to the rustle of leaves in the breeze, from the stutter of stalled car engines to the spare and poignant score, there's nothing extraneous in Gavigai [sic]. As in the best poetry, each image and every sound has the rigor and grace of a well-turned line." Chuck Bowen of Slant Magazine also gave the film a highly positive review and argued, "There’s a little of Terrence Malick in Gavagai’s poetic sensibility, but director and co-writer Rob Tregenza lacks Malick’s precious need to flaunt erudition—to bang us on the head with the existential importance of the proceedings. Tregenza’s characters don’t endlessly and ludicrously twirl into the heavens while muttering sweet nothings; instead, they’re viscerally connected to this Earth and imbued with everyday physicality."
Justin Chang of the Los Angeles Times praised the realism of Gavagai, writing, "Tregenza doesn’t force his two excellent leads to bond or bicker, to arrive at moments of epiphany and catharsis on cue. He knows that even our meaningful encounters with strangers tend to be fleeting ones; he also knows that people are almost always slower to reveal themselves than the movies allow time for." In Film Journal International, Simi Horwitz praised the footage of the Norwegian scenery, stating, "The natural world is almost mystical and takes on the quality of a character, especially in the rainy scenes that mirror the characters’ shed and unshed tears—admittedly a cliché, but visually evocative and emotionally stirring nonetheless.” However, Horwitz criticized the intentional omission of subtitles in scenes containing German or Chinese (rather than Norwegian), as well as the fact that some characters are unnamed.
# Kronia

The Kronia (Ancient Greek: Κρόνια) was an Athenian festival held in honor of Kronos (Cronus) on the 12th day of Hekatombaion, the first month of the Attic calendar, and roughly equivalent to the latter part of July and first part of August.
The festival was also celebrated in parts of Ionia, and in these places the month was called Kronion, named after the festival.$^{:82}$$^{:385}$ Scholars usually interpret it as a celebration of the mid-summer (first) harvest. Its Roman equivalent is Saturnalia.$^{:38}$

## Details from ancient sources

The Roman playwright Accius says that to celebrate the Kronia, "In nearly all fields and towns they happily feast upon banquets, and everyone waits upon his own servants." Slaves and the free, rich and poor, all dined together and played games.
The freedom from work and social egalitarianism enjoyed on the day represented the conditions of the mythical Golden Age, when Kronos (Cronus) still ruled the world. In the Golden Age, the earth had spontaneously supported human life, and since labor was unneeded, slavery had not existed. William Hansen describes the Golden Age of Kronos as "a period of thorough harmony in which hierarchical, exploitative, and predatory relationships were nonexistent."$^{:385,391[note34]}$
The Kronia was a time for social restraints to be temporarily forgotten. Slaves were released from their duties, and participated in the festivities alongside the slave-owners. Slaves were "permitted to run riot through the city, shouting and making a noise." Other than the Kronia, there is only limited evidence of religious devotion to Kronos (Cronus).$^{:83}$
