Synopsis

Divine Words is a play written by Ramón del Valle-Inclán in 1919. It tells the story of a poor family living in rural Galicia, Spain, who are caught up in a web of greed, lust, and betrayal.

The main character, Mari Gaila, is a young woman who is mistreated by her husband, Juan Gaila, and her mother-in-law, Patina. She seeks solace in the arms of a local priest, but their relationship only leads to more tragedy.

As the story unfolds, we see the characters' descent into madness and desperation, culminating in a shocking and violent climax. The play explores themes of poverty, religion, and the destructive power of human desires.

Divine Words is a dark and intense drama that offers a stark portrayal of the darker aspects of human nature.

The musical themes in Divine Words effectively underscore the themes of greed, lust, and betrayal, creating a sense of unease and tension throughout.

Overall, I believe the soundtrack failed to complement the narrative and failed to evoke the raw emotions and complexities of the characters' struggles in rural Galicia, Spain.

Laura Harris
6/10

The contrast between moments of melancholy and moments of intense drama in the soundtrack mirrors the rollercoaster of emotions experienced by the characters.

Nancy Thomas
3/10

I found the choice of instruments and compositions to be jarring and distracting, rather than enhancing the emotional depth of the characters and their descent into madness and desperation.

5/10

The soundtrack's ability to evoke a sense of despair and madness mirrors the characters' descent into darkness in a powerful and poignant way.

Kenneth Young
4/10

The soundtrack of Divine Words did not effectively capture the dark and intense atmosphere of the play. The music felt disconnected from the themes of greed, lust, and betrayal portrayed in the story.

Brian Anderson
6/10

The use of traditional Galician folk music in the soundtrack adds an authentic and cultural dimension to the overall experience of watching the play.

Brian Clark
6/10

The incorporation of religious motifs in the music enhances the exploration of the complex relationship between faith and sin in the play.
