by Ryland Walker Knight — Beaming and leaning Last Year at Marienbad [Alain Resnais, 1961] # I could watch this movie a million times. A lot funnier than I remembered, though I remembered it being funny, I think. Another reason to own a Blu-ray player, no doubt. I wrote a smarter, funnier response over here . City of Sadness [Hou Hsiao-hsien, 1989] Not quite the emotional experience I'd expected,...
by Ryland Walker Knight —What's a womb? That's a home? The Informant! [Steven Soderbergh, 2009] Totally daft-deft stab at greed. Maybe the most ironic film of the decade? Easily the best thing Sodeyface has done since The Limey . But where most of the rest of S.S.'s career is about self-aware charisma, Matt Damon's Whitacre isn't charismatic so much as crazy, a perfect boob, caught inside his...
Britain's bestknown 'French actress' Jane Birkin talks about sex scenes with Bardot life with Gainsbourg and recording the infamous duet Je T'aime...Mon Non Plus.
This is the end of a thoroughly wonderful shot in Jacques Rivette's thoroughly spectacular film on Joan of Arc, but really, I haven't ruined it for you if you haven't seen the movie. It's un-ruinable, really. Artificial Eye has done...
Catherine Deneuve and Heinz Bennent in Le dérnier metro (The last metro) from 1980 by legendary French director François Truffaut. The film, who was one of Truffauts last and also stars Gerard Depardieu, is screened at Vienna Café on Thursday. Vienna Café cooks up with a Truffaut movie this coming Thursday! One of film history´s most important directors didn't only...
Jacques Rivette's Around a Small Mountain ( 36 vues du Pic Saint Loup ), from a scenario by Rivette , Pascal Bonitzer and Christine Laurent , follows The Duchess of Langeais's (2007) classical subsumption of the filmmaker's arch emphasis on repetition, with a more straightforward, performing arts world-motivated presentation of the theme. In transitioning back to one of the director's most familiar...
Reviewing Gang of Four for Cahiers du cinéma in 1989, the late philosopher Gilles Deleuze wrote that Jacques Rivette’s project is “a cinema that opposes its theatricality to that of theater, its reality to that of the world, which has become unreal.” That’s as succinct a formulation of the great director’s body of work as we are likely to get, and one that applies...
This third dispatch from the New York Film Festival features reviews of one highly anticipated work (any work from Rivette at a site named after a film of his is a major event), two works that I was cautiously looking forward to (Pedro Costa's Ne Change Rien and Harmony Korine's Trash Humpers ), and one work that I knew absolutely nothing about (Raya Martin's Independencia). I've already previewed...
by Ryland Walker Knight I'd planned on letting that last widget post lapse past the page, but, well, this early AM I got excited about some more recommendations from my daily dials. The coding on the widget is a little wonky, but, still, I'm updating it. Here goes. Most immediate would be that I just finished watching Criterion's Renoir box set of films from the 1950s, Stage and Spectacle , and I cannot...
by Ryland Walker Knight — Where do you heal? Where could he be? Elena and her men [Jean Renoir, 1956] It's Ingrid's show, no doubt, but I was more taken by the sly Mel Ferrer and his lanky-limber rogue. That said, it's a fine metaphor for the star system, and Ingrid's go-anywhere constitution; she's great at aloof twined with cunning. Renoir says he had to improvise the whole thing, for the most...
French directors seem to be immortal. Jacques Rivette, Eric Rohmer, Alain Resnais: all are in their eighties and all are still making films. So, mercifully, is Agnes Varda. Ever since her first feature, La Pointe-Courte (1954), she has carved out a singular career, encompassing the Nouvelle Vague classic Cleo From 5 to 7 (1962), social-realist heartbreaker Vagabond (1985) and the captivating cine-essay...
I’ve alway kind of liked the original Nightmare on Elm Street . The concept is ridiculously scary and somehow it really works in a good old fashioned horror type of way. The new one could also potentionally be quite scary but from the look of it, it’s also pretty glossy and maybe too complicated and fantastical. I always thought the original worked because of the technical limitations...
by Ryland Walker Knight —Money talks Ashes of Time Redux [WKW, 1994/2008] Started this a couple nights prior but was gladly interrupted by two fun-loving phone calls. Started over, fitting WKW, and felt the slow-mo, loss-hardened fronts enough; the fights were fun flurries of blur and I dig the literal adventure of perception with "the good" Tony Leung, but I get why, um, certain friends...
