0:00 - Faust’s sleep is troubled, so Méphistophélès commands a few spirits to change his dreams. 3:50 - Faust wakes up from dreaming of the beauty of Hélène. He demands that she be brought across time and ages to understand what true beauty is. 10:04 - Méphistophélès summons Hélène from beyond the grave. 12:24 - Hélène appears. Faust is captivated by her beauty. 12:54 - Hélène is confused and frustrated that after all the troubles of her earthly life, she has been woken up again. 14:59 - She does not want to hear of Faust’s love, as she remembers the many people who died in her name, and she cannot bear for this to happen again. 18:07 - Faust is insistent and forcibly kisses Hélène. She is filled with a burning desire and suddenly becomes aware she is alive again. 20:13 - Their passion is fierce, but their union is short-lived. 23:15 - Méphistophélès shows them that a huge score of Hélène's fighters, ghostly figures covered in blood who lost their lives for her, have come to take Hélène back to her grave. 24:44 - Hélène begs Faust not to let her go. 25:11 - Faust must let her go, or he will be taken down to hell with Hélène. 27:39 - He is so enthralled by her beauty he cannot remove himself from her embrace. 28:14 - The Ghost of Paris takes Hélène. 28:28 - Faust tries to save her but is struck down by the Ghost. 28:47 - Mephisto curses Faust, as they have tempted God.
Not sure exactly what I was doing at 19 years old, but I can be pretty sure it wasn't composing one of the masterworks of the decade. Fighting chronic illness and chronic sexism at the same time. What a badass.
