Rutger Hauer in THE LEGEND OF THE HOLY DRINKER (1988), directed by Ermanno Olmi
What to Watch on FANDOR

Curator’s Pick: “The Legend of the Holy Drinker”

A besotted dream of a very clean tramp, THE LEGEND OF THE HOLY DRINKER is also a throwback to a particular kind of half-logy, umber-infused, myth-laden European arthouse cinema layered thick with obscure portents and kept aloft with lyrical fantasy interludes. It’s so old-fashioned that it’s practically new again.
