Fun fact: The author of An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge (Ambrose Bierce) went to Mexico in 1913 because he wanted to have a first hand experience with the Mexican Revolution. He disappeared and was never seen again.
True. I had to do a report on him in college and he disappeared never to be seen or heard of when the Mexican Civil War was going on. Of course, his writing survived but not much else. He was a very interesting and highly intelligent man. If anyone wants to read up on him, he had an interesting life and he had wit too.
Seems like a lot of us saw this in school. And it stuck with us. The prospect of facing an execution and the last moments being a fantasy of escape and seeing your loved ones again . . . It still hits hard today.
This little synopsis reminded me of the song written by Claude Putnam, Jr. and made into a big hit by Tom Jones, The Green, Green Grass of Home, though the prisoner was in a prison cell not on a bridge. Too much of a coincidence that Mr. Putnam didn't "borrow" the plot from Mr. Bierce.
I'm 59 and i also seen this in School. I was a freshman. Our English teacher decided that we needed too read the book 📖. Then we watched the bw 35mm film 🎥. After the movie we had to write a paper on how the two were different. Your right thing like this do stick with you.
This is weird; my 6th grade English teacher, also showed us this film, this was circa '68/ WTF? I remember this clip from over fifty years ago. I saw this clip today on a rerun of the "Twilight Zone*
I remember watching this on a reel to reel projector in school in the mid 1980s....I remember the voice saying " Im a free man" as he looked around once he made it to the ground....I mever forgot this and this is the first time i have seen it since...
I remember seeing this as a kid and thinking "That is one sloppy execution and the Union Army soldiers are horrible shots" until the end where it is shown it is just a last minute fantasy of the executed man.
Agreed I feel The Last Temptation of Christ got influence from this one. *Spoiler Below* In which you find out the last act of the film that shows Jesus escaping crucifixion, getting married to Mary Magdalene, having children and growing old was all in Jesus’ head. He still dies on the cross at the end
@@RB01.10knowing Jesus' mission he would've never fantasized that. He loves Mary like a daughter. and you and me like sons. He died for the sins of the world and rose again on the third day ultimately defeating death. Noone has to die ever if they would just believe that that's what Jesus really did.
@@jaydonwinger9869 It was just a film (it even has a disclaimer at the beginning “this film is not based on the Gospels but upon the fictional exploration of the eternal spiritual conflict,") who knows for sure what he was really thinking in his last moments. That’s why it was called “Last Temptation” because while he may have been tempted not to die and live a life with Magdalene he still ended up accepting death on the cross in the end as history tells us. That part remained unchanged. I really enjoyed the film, one of Scorcese’s best, especially how complex it portrays Jesus.
@@RB01.10 fun fact, the Last temptation of Christ was a book written by Nikos Kazantzakis and it was the book that got him excommunicated from the Orthodox Church of Greece
65 now, watched this as a 9 year old on Irish T.V. in 1968. It made a massive impact on me then , that I haven't forgotten. That was compounded 4 years later, when the short story was part of our school syllabus. Thank you for uploading this.
I didn't know this film existed! When I was in 8th grade, we read the poem this is based off of. I will say that I feel the poem does a much better job of adding color to the story, (Pun intended). The first example of this would be how the poem portrays the scene that starts at 2:32, where he is looking at his surroundings. In the poem, he is looking at everything in wonder, as everything appears to him in a vibrance hitherto unexperienced; absorbing the beauty of a world he now has a new lease on life with which to experience it in a whole new lens and appreciation. The next scene I remember vividly from the book was the scene at the very end. In the poem, he runs all the way to his home, (Which the book states is many miles away, further hinting at the surreal nature of the transpirance) and when he sees his wife, he races up to her to embrace her, when he suddenly hears and feels what sounds like a cannon shot, only for everything to suddenly vanish into nothingness. It is here that we are reacquainted with reality, and the fact that this whole circumstance was no more than a dream; a prolonging of blessed life and consciousness by any stretch the mind can grasp. The cannon shot was the snapping of the mans neck. I absolutely understand people who do not care for reading or going out of their way for a simple poem, Lord knows I haven't the slightest patience for reading if I can help it. In spite of this, I highly recommend reading the poem. It is quite short, but I feel that it is absolutely worth it to experience the prose of the original work as it bathes the story in a light which so suitably portrays the soul and intention of the work. I understand people who defend this short film. It is by no means bad, and I am incredibly happy that it exists! In the end, I feel that anyone who enjoys this film, or even just the concept of the film, should read the poem.
All things considered, this is surprisingly well done. Thanks for making and posting this, bro! I read the story when I was a kid, and it stayed with me always.
I saw this in high school in 1976 or so. I had never forgotten it. I just saw this on The Twilight Zone today--45+ years later. The poster has shortened this a bit
I am grateful to see the film again, which I first saw about 50 years ago, but I am disappointed about the music dubbed over the original soundtrack, which is much better.
I saw this while home sick from school.1990 or so,I was 9-10.The ending really jolted me(no pun intended)to the point that it took me a few more years to find out the Author and read his work.
I'm not sure why anyone would dislike the music (then again I haven't heard the original audio for this), but this is Hector Berlioz's "March to the Scaffold" from Symphonie Fantastique. To me it fits the theme of the story wonderfully.
I'm binge watching The Twilight Zone in sequence. Just saw this episode. Classic TZ surprise ending. It illustrates how fast one can think (or daydream or regular dream) vs real time. That split second from the sergeant stepping off the plank to him actually dropping was far more engaging in the TZ episode than this clip. Although this clip captures the essence of the story, the TZ episode takes longer with the same fantasy. Brilliant.
Say all u want about public schools. But I seen this in school and many many other great things I learned so much from.. in school is where I learned so many beautiful things ..like how to read and enjoy fantastic stuff like this story and hundreds of others like it.. I had teachers who really worked hard to help me understand and love things like reading.. I grew up in the 80s and 90s and my teachers where good . Most of them really where good and wanted to teach me. Man I was forced to learn to read.. ice met so many people who say they never read a book.. how? How could u go threw school and not read books!!?? They forced me too and I'm glad of it to .. my god how can u say u have a high school education if u never read books?? U cant!!
Yesterday I mentioned to a friend that I was in the process of reading The Devil's Dictionary, by Ambrose Bierce, and she told me about this movie, which I'd never heard of. I'm so glad I was able to see it here! It was much like the short story! I loved it! 🤠
This is my first time seeing this, at age 70! Hit me in the stomach with the horror of it. Have always thought hanging and the electric chair vile punishments in particular. I nearly electrocuted myself when I was 3 by sticking my dad's metal framed sunglasses into an electric socket. My whole body twisted into agonizing pain as I passed out. Fortunately the fuses blew quickly enough to save my life. Came to completely drenched in icy cold sweat and weak. I'm definitely against the death penalty.
I also understand the TW episode was made by French director Bierce, not Rod Serling. The episode has dialog and different music. Funny how a short film made in France emulated the Union army circa 1860. Also creative set with the bridge, railroad and other props.
Ambrose Bierce was a nihilistic Agnostic (very inclined to Atheism/Naturalism) due probably to personal experiences. Probably he heard many times about NDEs experience from wounded soldiers so he gave his nihilistic representation of an NDE (Near Death Experience) for a materialist perspective. Great idea but poor guy (Bierce...).
Donnie Darko. He escaped his death at the beginning and goes through a flight of fancy where he is the hero, then it turns back and it actually fell on him and he died.. think about it…
As a warning to other would-be rebels in the neighborhood. Cruel. But if were in charge of an occupying army, I'd probably do the same, reasoning that it's better to sacrifice one person to keep from having to kill many others.
Like many of you I saw this in English class in Jr HS or HS back in the 80s. It was an important lesson in storytelling and story-reading, e.g., what is written is not meant to be taken only literally.
This is from the Twilight Zone episode of the same title. Adequate musical arrangement. I would have started out with a Classical piece that bespeaks his at first thoughts of calm, graduating to turbulence or tumult. For the latter the current track is good; for the former, might I recommend Claude Debussy's L'apres midi d'un faune"?
Not originally a Twilight Zone episode. Part of a trilogy of Ambrose Bierce's short stories put to film, and arguably the best one. Serling was astute to include it, however.
In addition to this one, there are 2 more of Ambrose Bierce's Civil War Stories that have been made into black-and-white films: "Mockingbird" and "Chickamauga." Does anyone know where these videos can be found?
I saw this with a quite different soundtrack in the 1980s..... a song “I Want to Be.... A Living Man”. Hard to believe how much sympathy this conjures for the “other side”...... but it shows that we are all have human needs. I’m anti-death penalty because it makes us all killers
Wow, always been curious about the experiences of the older generations 😅 i believe people were more humane back then? "Simpler times" is what I hear everyone calling it ... Is it so?
@@pratulr740 no. There is a human tendency toward « nostalgia », because those of us who long for »simpler times » have no experience or concept of how difficult they were. Shorter lifespans were due to famine, disease, warfare, etc. The appeal of fantasy always neglects the reality of a situation.
@@dougr.2398 That was very well said sir,gives me a new perspective 😀. Always been an admirer of history! This video taught me how an actor had to express all the words just in his face... Acting had to be at it's finest 😅 or the people would never understand the movie.
"the realisation of a concept" - this is an edited version of the french production - with dialog removed - and music added - the real film short was 28 min long
i haven't seen this in years, when i saw the pic, i though it was this, and it is. (would have loved to know what he was hung for, lol) and yes, i was in junior high when i saw it too. (I'm 60 now) shhhhhh lol
Saw this as a junior in HS and became a huge fan of Bierce....47 years later and a 38 year career as an English teacher, It still jolts me!
Dude, I watched this in my junior year, too
We just read it today and I’m a junior. I really enjoy this story a lot even though I’m not a huge English guy. Should I read more Bierce?
It seems like everyone who went to high school in the 70s was shown this film.

For some reason I think something similar is what took me out. I guess it’s an okay way to go, all things considered

Why is this a fun fact?? What does Bierce’s disappearance have anything to do with this short story?
This story reminds me of the Old Gringo by Fuentes; wonder if he was inspired by this real life occurrence or not.
