Blu-ray Review: The Man Who Fell to Earth (Criterion Collection)

I never would have watched The Man Who Fell to Earth (1976) had I not been sent the Blu-ray for review. Of the first four Blu-rays released by Criterion it is the one title I wouldn’t have actually shelled out money for even though I was intrigued after watching the trailer. However, first impressions aren’t [...]

Antonin Tron : The Lavish Man

Somehow in the midst of my reviews of the 2008 graduating show of Royal Academy of Fine Arts, Antwerp I missed what could be possibly the most important menswear designer of the class. Antonin Tron's Collection entitled "La Jetee" after one of his great inspirations a movie by Chris Marker left me close to speechless. The lavishly designed collection may not conform to the our stark ideas of... Related...

Año Uña

I SUPPOSE you would have to describe this charming little picture from Jonás Cuarón - the 29-year- old son of Alfonso - as an experimental exercise.

Ano Una (15)

In purely technical terms, this would-be art-house romance sounds interesting – the action being conveyed by a succession of still photographs and voiceover, rather as in Chris Marker's La Jetée; but the story, about a Mexican boy's overheated crush on an American student, is indescribably banal and amateurishly acted.

After the Movies · Michael Wood on Godard's Histoire(s) du cinéma

After the MoviesMichael Wood Whatever else it may be, Jean-Luc Godard’s Histoire(s) du cinéma (now available on DVD from Artificial Eye) does not resemble the afternoon bill at the old Plaza or the new Cineplex. He first thought of creating a history of cinema in 1978. It would be told, he said, ‘archaeologically and biologically’. In spite of the metaphors, the plan seemed conventional enough: an...

The New Criterion.

With what might be taken as a nod to Chris Marker (whose pseudonym is believed to have been nabbed from a Magic Marker), a nifty orientation video featuring Jason Polan is the best guide imaginable to the new Criterion...

World Cinema Classic #70

In search of nonspace and unthought thoughts. Sans Soleil I’ve been mulling over French director Chris Marker’s Sans Soleil for four days now. The key scene for me was the shooting of the giraffe, which gave its origins away as far as genre-theoretics are concerned. The key phrase was perhaps the “salute to all unposted letters,” but is [...]

Sans Soleil (Sunless)

Written and directed by : Chris Marker How do you make a movie about everything, By making it about nothing? By indicating, and not pointing. By wandering and not traveling. By imbibing the intricacies of banality and embracing forgetfulness as an essential component of remembrances. Chris Marker’s movie floats through time and space creating a tapestry of ephemeral images encapsulating humanity present,...

Cats Go Barack

It’s not often that you can get t-shirts designed by major figures of world cinema, and even less often for a better cause: Chris Marker invokes his trademark character, Guillaume-en-egypte, for Barack Obama at Wexner Center for the Arts.

La Jetée

"La Jetée " is one of my favorite films, long or short. It uses a technique with still photos that gives it an eerie lost-in-time quality that is haunting. Made by Chris Marker in 1962, it is just 28 minutes long. My first viewing of " La Jetée " was at the Biograph Theatre, in my initial year as its manager (1972). It was a popular art house film and we played it several more times while I was there....
