font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt;">Jean-Pierre Oudart entre aux <i>Cahiers </i>en janvier 1969. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="FR" style="color: #050505; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt;">Il envoie un texte chez le bureau de la revue et, apparemment, les rédacteurs en chef l’apprécie bien et décide de lui publier.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="FR" style="color: #050505; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt;">Oudart serait une machine de guerre théorique pendant son temps-là, maitrisant le discours structuraliste, psychanalytique et marxiste, en phase avec la rédaction qui va plus en plus envers cette tendance. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="FR" style="color: #050505; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt;">Et Oudart serait mis en valeur pour cela.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="FR" style="color: #050505; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt;">Rapidement, il fait l’accès à ces couvertures, et ils en feraient beaucoup, dans des registres assez différent (e.g. critique couverture, annonce d’article, texte correspondent) : D’avril 1969 à janvier 1981 (donc à travers plus de dix ans), Oudart serais mis en avant 28 fois sur les couvertures.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="FR" style="color: #050505; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt;">Après cela, sa dernière contribution est dans le numéro de mars 1981 et il serait éjecter de la rédaction (qu’il entre dedans en mars 1970) en février 1985, avec beaucoup d’autre rédacteurs toujours dedans (même s’ils ont depuis longtemps arrêté de contribuer) de la période Daney.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="FR" style="color: #050505; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt;">Donc voici les couvertures d’Oudart : « Suture » (nº 211 et 212), <i>La Sirène du Mississipi</i> de Truffaut (nº 212, qu’il écrit à propos dans le nº 216), la couleur (nº 217), La vie est à nous de Renoir (nº 217 et 218), Jancso (nº 219, il ouvre le dossier), « Travail, lecture, jouissance » avec Daney (nº 222), <i>Tristana </i>de Buñuel (nº 223, il participe au dossier), « L’effet de réel » (nº 228), « Notes pour une théorie de la représentation » (nº 229 et 230), « L’idéologie moderniste dans quelques films récents » sur <i>La Guerre Civile en France </i>avec Narboni (nº 232), « Misère du cinéma français » avec Aumont (nº 233), « Le nom-de-l’auteur » sur <i>Mort à Venise</i> de Visconti avec Daney (nº 234/235), « Le hors-champ de l’auteur » sur <i>Quatre nuits d’un rêveur</i> de Bresson (nº 236/237), sur <i>Family Life</i> de Ken Loach avec Daney (nº 244), <i>Vincent, François, Paul et les autres</i> de Claude Sautet (nº 254/255), « Une certaine tendance du cinéma français » avec Daney, Kané et Toubiana (nº 257), « Un pouvoir qui ne pense, ne calcule, ni ne juge ? » sur<i> Aguirre</i> d’Herzog et <i>Lancelot du lac</i> de Bresson (nº 258/259), <i>Histoire d’O</i> de Jaeckin (nº 260/261), <i>Nationalité : Immigré</i> de Sidney Sokhona avec Le Péron et Daney (nº 265), « Diffamations » sur <i>Karl May</i> de Syberberg (nº 266/267), <i>Edvard Munch</i> de Watkins (nº 273), un entretien avec Antonio Reis avec Daney (nº 276), Buñuel et <i>Dernière sotie avant Roissy</i> de Paul (nº 281), <i>Hitler</i> de Syberberg (nº 292, mais qu’il écrit à propos dans le nº 294), <i>De la nuée à la résistance</i> de Straub et Huillet (nº 305, mais qu’il écrit à propos dans le nº 302), <i>Mon Oncle d’Amérique</i> de Resnais (nº 314), <i>The Shining</i> de Kubrick (nº 317), et <i>Le Salon de musique</i> de Ray (nº 319, mais qu’il écrit à propos dans le nº 298).<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="FR" style="color: #050505; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt;">Fin 1980, les <i>Cahiers</i> sont vraiment différents qu’ils étaient à la fin des années soixante. Le discours d’Oudart est moins en phase avec celui de la revue, et il va arrêter d’y écrire, ou peut-être, plus probable, rejeter car ces avis serait trop extrême et divergent. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="FR" style="color: #050505; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt;">C’est une des grandes tristesses des fonds des <i>Cahiers</i>, qu’un de ces meilleurs contributeurs, Oudart, pour plus de dix ans, va bientôt progressivement disparaitre dans le néant.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="FR" style="color: #050505; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt;">On regrette cela.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="FR" style="color: #050505; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt;">À suivre…<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="FR" style="color: #050505; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt;">P.S. On voit aussi à travers ces couvertures comment la revue change pendant ces dix années : au début il y a ceux de Filipacchi, et puis après ceux du début du transition envers d’être une revue indépendant et puis le concrétisation de cela – et avec cela, le changement d’un titre, celui de la revue en-haut, et puis sous un mis-en-avant de dossier dans le numéro, et puis après un photogramme d’un film (de plus en plus politique) jusqu’à enlever progressivement l’image entièrement (même en gardant des couleurs) –, et puis graduellement le retour d’images, et puis finalement le retour d’une nouvelle maquette Daniel et Cie en 1978, avec le titre des <i>Cahiers </i>et le numéro en haut et une photo d’un film en bas, qui serait le formule pour tous les années quatre-vingt. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="FR" style="color: #050505; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt;">À travers tous ces couvertures on voit aussi comment les préoccupations de la revue change – le cinéma qu’ils admirent, ces rédacteurs etc. –, mais aussi des continuités.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="FR" style="color: #050505; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt;">C’est un lieu unique.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="FR" style="color: #050505; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt;"> </span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><b><span lang="FR" style="color: #050505; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt;">[Meilleur des Cahiers 125/x]<o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><b><span lang="FR" style="color: #050505; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt;"> </span></b></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><b><span lang="FR" style="color: #050505; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt;">Oudart d’Orléans<o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="FR" style="color: #050505; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt;">Ce qu’on sache des origines de Jean-Pierre Oudart, de sa jeunesse, dans ces vingtaines, avant qu’il déménage à Paris, c’est qu’il travaille à la Bibliothèque municipale d’Orléans et qu’il lit attentive les <i>Cahiers </i>depuis le début des années soixante. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="FR" style="color: #050505; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt;">Selon De Baecque, « A partir de 1967, il fait parvenir à la rédaction de nombreuses lettres, bientôt des critiques, puis des textes plus théoriques. Enfin, au bout d’une dizaine d’échanges épistolaires, un rendez-vous est pris. Il sera décisif. Jean-Pierre Oudart commence dès lors une collaboration qui va s’étaler sur une dizaine d’années. »<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="FR" style="color: #050505; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt;">Le premier texte d’Oudart dans les <i>Cahiers </i>est dans le numéro de janvier 1969 (nº 208), sur <i>Les Contrebandières</i> de Luc Moullet (arrière-couverture du nº 199), avec le titre, « L’aberrant dévié ».<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="FR" style="color: #050505; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt;">Mais qu’est-ce-que qu’on sait vraiment à propos Orléans, ou habiter précédemment Oudart, cette ville a peut-près deux heures sud de Paris, en termes de sa relation à la cinéphilie ?<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="FR" style="color: #050505; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt;">Sur la province française, j’ai trouvé qu’Oudart en parle au moins deux fois. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="FR" style="color: #050505; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt;">La première fois, il en parle un peu elliptiquement, à travers son critique de <i>La Rosière de Pessac</i> de Jean Eustache (« La parole du maire », nº 215) dans le numéro de septembre 1969, et puis plus explicitement, dans son article, « La rumeur » de mai 1976 (nº 266/267), peut-être pour ce reclus, un de ces textes les plus autobiographique.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="FR" style="color: #050505; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt;">Mais, il va aussi avoir un festival de cinéma dans cette ville, d’Orléans, fin années soixante-dix, notamment organisé par Janine Bazin, entre, je crois, 1975 à 1978.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="FR" style="color: #050505; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt;">Il va avoir une annonce pour ce festival dans le numéro d’avril 1978 et Lardeau écrit à propos cette édition dans le numéro de l’été 1978.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="FR" style="color: #050505; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt;">Et puis la revue écrit encore à propos dans le numéro d’octobre 1979, « Orléans… pas mort », ou ils indiquent le départ de J.

Parce que je n’y suis pas à l’école, sous un prétexte politiste de plus en plus vague. Parce que je n’y suis pas surveillé. Et aussi parce que c’est, à sa façon, un cinéma très local qui a l’extrême souci de se localiser. C’est un cinéma qui ne respire pas la honte, comme celui de Godard, d’être fait par et pour des petits-bourgeois qui ont un tant soi peu le souci de l’histoire et de la politique. Un cinéma qui a un goût, une sensibilité, un cortège de soucis, une esthétique spécifique. Godard, malgré son petit côté pop, Miró et graffiti, c’est un cinéma qui n’est pas seulement étayé par un fantasme planétaire, mais qui a le goût de mort du cinéma planétaire des media, et s’y complait avec morosité. » (nº 294)<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="FR" style="color: #050505; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt;">C’est difficile à évaluer si ces désaccords et reproche devrait être prise d’une manière sérieuse ou d’une marque d’une nouvelle hétérogénéité… <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="FR" style="color: #050505; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt;">Mais avec le départ prochainement d’Oudart, ça peut susciter des vraies questions.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="FR" style="color: #050505; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt;">Les trois dernier critiques d’Oudart, peut-être ces meilleurs (et tous qui correspond à des couverture), son peut-être des indices sur ce sujet.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="FR" style="color: #050505; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt;">Ils vont être sur <i>Mon Oncle d’Amérique</i> de Resnais (nº 314), <i>The Shining</i> de Kubrick, et <i>Sauve qui peut (la vie) </i>de Godard (ces deux dernier dans le nº 317).<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="FR" style="color: #050505; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt;">Le dernier contribution d’Oudart est dans le numéro de mars 1981 et on ne sait pas exactement pourquoi il arrête et les avis sur ce sujet sont contradictoire.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="FR" style="color: #050505; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt;">Par exemple, sur le retour des <i>Cahiers </i>à un « juste milieu » du cinéma français, il y avait des avis interne opposée. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="FR" style="color: #050505; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt;">De Baecque élabore cela,<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="FR" style="color: #050505; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt;">« Jean-Pierre Oudart, par exemple, considère comme un reniement ce « retour » à Truffaut ou à Chabrol.

Le conteur Dogon et la mère noire, c’est une dimension d’humanité des scénarios de langage, des scénarios de corps qui nous sont tout à fait inconnus. »<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="FR" style="color: #050505; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt;">Dans un critique de Lardeau, sur <i>Les Funérailles du Vieil Anaï</i> de Rouch (nº 301), il fait référence aux projections du film qui fait penser à Oudart (car il était son projectionniste).<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="FR" style="color: #050505; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 11pt;">Selon Lardeau, on découvre pour la première fois, qu’« Après qu’il a quitté les <i>Cahiers,</i> Jean Pierre s’est disputé avec Rouch et l’a frappé.

C’est-à-dire qu’à <i>Positif</i> les gens qui ont envie d’écrire, ils envoient un texte même s’ils sont complètement inconnus souvent ce sont des gens inconnus. Si le texte qui est lu dans le comité de rédaction est aimer, on propose de le publier et ensuite de collaborer puis ensuite d’entrer au comité de rédaction. Donc quand j’avais 25 ans. J’avais été choqué par l’accueil critique assez mauvais du film d’Orson Welles même en France par rapport à Kafka et cetera. Et comme je connaissais très bien Kafka et Orson Welles. J’ai envoyé l’article et j’ai cru que je ne pouvais pas être publié parce que dans le numéro qui venait de sortir, il y avait une table ronde de sept-huit rédacteurs de <i>Positif </i>qui discutait pendant 15 pages <i>Le Procès</i>. Donc j’ai dit maintenant c’est fini, je vais arriver après. Pas du tout, ils ont trouvé mon texte intéressant et ils m’ont proposé de le publier et ensuite ils m’ont demandé de collaborer à la revue, d’écrire des articles, c’était en 63. Et en 1966, je suis entré au comité de rédaction. Mais c’est comme ça que ça se passe tout le temps. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;"><b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">DD :</span></b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;"> C’était qui les rédacteurs en chef à cette époque et est-ce que Bernard Chardère était encore là ?<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;"><b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">MC :</span></b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;"> Non, non, non. Bernard Chardère qui est le fondateur est le seul rédacteur en chef qui a existé à <i>Positif</i>, parce qu’il n’y a jamais eu de rédacteur en chef. Bernard Chardère, c’était 7 numéros à Lyon et ensuite il est parti en Algérie pour la guerre. Il était très jeune. Il avait 22 ans, 23 ans. Les rédacteurs, il y avait deux ou trois rédacteurs à Lyon qui sont venus à Paris. Il y avait d’autres rédacteurs également qui travaillaient à Paris et qui avaient de la sympathie pour <i>Positif</i> parce que c’est une revue de gauche et ça c’était des membres du groupe surréaliste comme Robert Benayoun, Ado Kyrou. Ceux-là, ils se sont joints aux Lyonnais, il y avait par exemple Roger Tailleur, Paul Louis Thirard, Louis Seguin. Tous ensembles, ils ont continué la revue. Il y a eu environs 10 éditeurs différents pendant 70 ans. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;"><b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">DD :</span></b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;"> Dans un de vos blocs-notes, vous avez parlé de votre visite au bureau des <i>Cahiers du Cinéma,</i> et de votre rencontre avec Truffaut. Vous lui avez dit : « Je n’aime pas les textes de Godard, il parle toujours autour des films ». Pouvez-vous parler de votre rencontre avec Truffaut ?<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;"><b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">MC :</span></b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;"> Ma rencontre avec Truffaut ? Comme j’étais un jeune cinéphile et j’étais sympathisant avec <i>Positif </i>pour la politique, avec la personnalité de ces gens, comme Benayoun et Tailleur, qui étaient du fait pour moi les deux meilleurs critiques qui existaient en France et aussi pour les liens avec le surréalisme parce que j’ai été très marqué par le surréalisme dans ma jeunesse quand j’avais 20 ans, 18 ans plus que par Sartre ou par Camus, j’ai été plus marqué par Breton, le goût des surréalistes pour tous les arts, pour la poésie, la peinture, le cinéma. Donc, je n’étais pas exclusivement cinéma mais aussi parce que le surréalisme était aussi un mouvement politique, donc il y avait toute une culture générale qui m’intéressait mais je lisais aussi les <i>Cahiers du Cinéma</i> même si c’était une revue très à droite. Pas Bazin, il était de gauche mais la nouvelle génération Rohmer, Truffaut, Godard, c’était vraiment une position. Mais ils avaient beaucoup de jugement et ils écrivaient des articles très intéressants. Donc je me sentais aussi. J’aimais bien Hitchcock, Hawks, Rossellini. J’aimais aussi évidemment les cinéastes de <i>Positif</i> comme Buñuel, comme Fellini, comme Antonioni, comme Houston.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;"><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">Donc un jour, je suis allé aux <i>Cahiers du Cinéma</i> pour acheter des anciens numéros parce que c’était à l’époque, c’était le numéro 50. Je voulais acheter des numéros que je n’avais pas. Et j’ai vu un garçon qui était là, c’était Truffaut qui était assis là et j’ai dit : « j’aime beaucoup ce que vous écrivez, ce que Rohmer et Rivette écrivent mais il y en a un que je ne comprends absolument pas c’est Godard. Il ne parle pas des films, il parle d’autre chose. C’est pas de la critique ». Il m’a dit : « vous avez tort parce que c’est le plus doué de nous tous ». C’est amusant parce que quand je relis maintenant par exemple l’article de Godard sur <i>Amère Victoire</i> de Nicholas Ray, le film auquel je pensais. Dans sa critique, il ne parle pas du tout du film, il parle des Champs-Élysées, des machines, des <i>pinballs</i>. En fait, il parle des jeunes filles qu’il aime rencontrer aux Champs-Élysées. En fait, il parle d’<i>À bout de souffle</i>, qu’il n’avait pas encore tourné. Mais c’est déjà un film auquel il pensait. Donc ce n’était pas, il ne faisait pas de la critique du cinéma, mais il faisait de la critique qui annonçait le cinéma qu’il allait faire lui. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;"><b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">DD :</span></b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;"> Dans votre vie de critique, quels sont les moments marquants qui vous ont façonné ?<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;"><b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">MC :</span></b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;"> Le moment marquant, ça a été mon entrée à <i>Positif</i>. C’est-à-dire une discussion tous les dimanches pendant trois heures sur le cinéma, sur des tas de sujets. À l’époque, on était à peu près tous de la même génération, les plus âgées, il avait 10 ans de plus que moi. Depuis ça a beaucoup changé parce que moi, je vais avoir 82 ans. Mais il y a des gens qui ont 75 ans, des gens qui ont 60 ans, des gens qui ont 40 ans, des gens qui ont 25 ans. Donc c’est un mélange de générations qui, à mon avis, fait la richesse de <i>Positif</i> parce que les <i>Cahiers du Cinéma</i> par exemple, ils ont changé complètement tous les 15 ans, il change totalement l’équipe et ils ont des politiques complètement différentes. Alors qu’à <i>Positif</i>, il y a une continuité, mais en même temps un changement parce que le changement c’est les jeunes qui arrivent avec des idées différentes, mais qui sont en confrontation avec des gens plus âgés. Les gens plus âgés apportent leur expérience et les jeunes apportent leur nouveau regard donc c’est une revue assez unique parce qu’on a mélangé toutes les générations. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;"><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">Ensuite ma première expérience intéressante, ça a été de faire des entretiens. Je n’ai pas commencé par des entretiens. Au bout de deux ans, j’ai commencé à faire des entretiens avec des gens comme Glauber Rocha,</span><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">Ruy Guerra,</span><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;"> </span><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">Dušan Makavejev, Richard Brooks, Abraham Polanski, John Boorman. Tout ça dans les années 60 jusqu’à 70. C’a été une grande expérience. Comme je parlais anglais, j’avais l’avantage de pouvoir faire des entretiens directement en anglais avec tous ces grands cinéastes. Parce que j’ai eu la chance d’appartenir à une génération qui était une génération de charnière, une charnière, il y avait encore les anciens cinéastes, les vieux qui continuaient à faire des films. J’ai rencontré John Ford. J’ai rencontré Raoul Walsh. J’ai rencontré Fritz Lang. J’ai rencontré Capra. J’ai rencontré King Vidor. J’ai rencontré von Sternberg. J’ai rencontré William Wellman. Bon j’ai rencontré tous ces gens-là parce que c’était l’ancienne génération mais j’ai aussi connus la nouvelle génération, ça veut dire tous les jeunes qui arrivait dans le cinéma dans les années 60 et 70. C’est-à-dire Resnais, Truffaut, Chabrol, Skolimowski, Polanski, Glauber Rochar, les Suisses, Tanner, Soutter, Denys Arcand, les Canadiens, Pierre Perrault. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;"><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">J’ai eu la chance d’être là au moment où il y avait la fin des grands, les grands historiques et l’arrivée des jeunes, les plus jeunes. Évidemment Antonioni ce n’est pas les plus jeunes, mais toute la génération de Makavejev, Skolimowski, Miklós Jancsó en Hongrie, Tarkovski, Konchalovsky et cetera. Tous ces gens-là sont arrivés dans les années 60, c’était une exceptionnelle génération. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;"><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">Voilà donc ça a été une autre expérience très importante et puis évidemment la rencontre avec Kubrick mais avant de rencontrer Kubrick, j’ai fait un livre avec Kazan qui a été très important pour moi en 1969/70. J’étais à Venise. J’ai interviewé Barbara Loden, c’était je crois le seul interview qu’elle a donné dans sa vie avec un entretien très long sur <i>Wanda</i> et Kazan était à Venise pour accompagner sa femme. Et j’ai dit à Kazan : « Est-ce que vous voudriez faire un livre avec moi, d’entretiens comme <i>Truffaut/Hitchcock</i>. On pourrait faire un grand entretien. Le British Film Institute est d’accord. Finalement, Kazan m’a dit bien d’accord, vous venez, vous venez chez moi à la campagne, à Sandy Hook, j’ai une maison, j’ai une chambre pour les amis. Vous pouvez rester 15 jours et tous les jours, on va faire des rencontres. Et donc, j’ai fait mon premier livre avec Kazan, un livre d’entretiens et ensuite j’ai rencontré Kubrick à peu près à la même époque pour <i>A Clockwork Orange</i> et que j’ai fais un très grand entretien et Kubrick a bien aimé parce que je posais des questions, que comme j’étais professeur à l’université, je m’intéressais à la culture en général pas simplement au cinéma, je posais des questions philosophiques, des questions historiques, des questions politiques etc et donc et aussi j’ai respecté totalement les déclarations parce qu’il avait été trahi par des journalistes amateurs, des journalistes suisses, des journalistes anglais qui ne enregistraient pas et qui ensuite transformeraient ce qu’il avait dit donc il était très soupçonneux et comme moi, j’étais un universitaire, j’étais très rigoureux sur la fidélité et je ne faisais pas du journalisme vraiment mais il m’a adopté et après j’ai pu le rencontrer plusieurs fois, comme sur <i>Barry Lyndon</i>. Je crois que c’est le seul entretien qui l’a donné vraiment le seul à donner sur <i>Barry Lyndon</i>, il a donné un petit entretien </span><span lang="FR-CA" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">avec Richard Schickel pour <i>Time</i>. Le mien </span><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">c’était le seul le seul qui l’a donné parce que quand ils ont fait les Kubrick archives, comment s’appelle le grand éditeur, Taschen, les <i>Kubrick Archives</i>, quand ils voulaient un entretien par film et ils m’ont demandé mon entretien je leur ai répondu mais je l’ai déjà publié et ils m’ont dit, « oui, mais il n’y en a pas d’autres, on a cherché partout dans le monde, il n’y a aucun entretien sur <i>Barry Lyndon</i>. » Alors, « Je vous donne la moitié de l’entretien. » Et après j’ai rencontré Kubrick sur <i>The Shining</i> et <i>Full Metal Jacket</i>.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;"><b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">DD :</span></b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;"> Vous avez mentioné un cinéaste que j’adore Alain Resnais. Quand il est mort, il y a un grand dossier dans <i>Positif </i>que j’ai tout lu et qui est si bien. Il était comment ? <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;"><b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">MC :</span></b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;"> C’était un homme merveilleux. Je parlais avec lui très souvent, presque une fois par semaine, on parlait parce qu’il avait beaucoup de respect, parce que je connaissais l’histoire du cinéma et il aimait bien parler, et parce qu’évidemment on a défendu son cinéma qui était un peu abandonné par la critique. Même les grands films et même les films après qu’il a faits, qui sont souvent très originaux, très personnels. Donc on parlait très souvent, c’était un homme extrêmement modeste, peut-être pas totalement modeste, mais il cachait son orgueil, très agréable, très fidèle en amitié, très curieux de tout : l’expérimentation, de la découverte, des jeunes metteurs en scène, il aimait Desplechin par exemple beaucoup, il s’intéressait vraiment au cinéma mondial, il connaissait admirablement le cinéma hollywoodien et les comédies, Bob Hope et les choses comme ça, il avait aimé Fellini et les gens comme ça, Antonioni aussi. Il était très très cultivé, il aimait bien le cinéma français classique Clouzot, René Clair et cetera. Non c’était un homme très extrêmement attachant et totalement comme un enfant avec une curiosité d’enfant, il pouvait s’intéresser à tout et n’avait jamais peur du ridicule, pas peur du ridicule, il pouvait dire ce qu’il voulait, comme son cinéma, c’était un homme ouvert à toutes les expériences. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;"><b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">DD :</span></b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;"> J’ai bien aimé le <i>Projection Privée </i>que vous avez faites sur lui<i> </i>après sa mort. Pour moi, Alain Resnais c’est vraiment le réalisateur français qui marque l’histoire de <i>Positif</i> avec les éloges de Robert Benayoun et qui a fait douze entretiens. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;"><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">Quand j’essaye de définir <i>Positif </i>c’est un peu son titre qui vient à l’esprit, que ça va être « positif » et plus appréciateur. Es ce que ce titre, cet esprit peut être Lyonnais, d’être plus positif, ça marque son histoire ? Car j’imagine les <i>Cahiers</i>c’est plus parisien, c’est plus peut-être sévère, violent. Mais <i>Positif</i>, il y a un côté un peu plus léger, aérien. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;"><b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">MC :</span></b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;"> Il y a d’abord le fait que je vous ai dit déjà que le surréalisme était une chose nourricière, qui a nourri <i>Positif </i>et il y avait des collaborateurs au Brésil par exemple, et Paraguay, qui était membre du groupe surréaliste brésilien qui est venu en exil, qui a travaillé à <i>Positif</i> très longtemps. Il y avait les Italiens Goffredo Foffi et maintenant Lorenzo Codelli. Il y avait Petr Král qui est un tchèque, membre du groupe surréaliste tchèque qui a été un très grand poète, qui est toujours d’ailleurs et qui a beaucoup écrit sur le cinéma de façon magnifique. Donc il y avait un esprit international. Ado Kyrou était le plus ancien et il était grec. Donc il y avait un esprit international avec des rapports avec la Belgique, avec la Suisse, mais aussi avec le Brésil, avec la Tchécoslovaquie, avec l’Angleterre. Brunus qui était en Angleterre aussi, membre du groupe surréaliste en France. Et qui s’intéressait aussi à la politique. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;"><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">Les<i> Cahiers</i> ont été de droite après ils ont été maoïstes, ils ont été dans toutes les couleurs de la politique les plus extrême. <i>Positif</i> a toujours été une revue un peu anarchiste, libertaire, on se moquait des modes, des enthousiasmes, et on disait ce qu’on pensait, ce qu’on aimait dans les films sans calcul. On n’a jamais pensé que le cinéma devait être quelque chose. On n’a jamais dit que le cinéma <i>devait</i>. Les <i>Cahiers</i>, ils ont toujours donné une direction : le cinéma doit être polyphonique, il doit être atonale, il doit être distancié et nous, on n’a jamais dit, on a essayé de voir les films et si on les aimait on disait bon ça c’est la modernité parce que quand on a vu les premiers films brésiliens, les premiers films yougoslaves, les premiers films hongrois, les premiers films québécois, on a découvert la nouveauté, on n’a pas théorisé, on n’a pas dit le cinéma doit être. Par exemple, les <i>Cahiers</i> disait : « le cinéma c’est Godard et les films chinois révolutionnaire. » En 70, les <i>Cahiers </i>aimaient seulement les films de Godard, de Straub et les films chinois maoïstes. C’est absurde.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;"><b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">DD :</span></b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;"> J’ai les recueils des deux premiers volumes de <i>Positif </i>et ce que je trouve marquant c’est l’humour dans les textes, il y avait le profil d’un réalisateur qui n’existait pas. Il y avait beaucoup de blagues. J’aime plutôt ce côté plus léger, humoristique, surréaliste.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;"><b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">MC :</span></b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;"> Il y a moins de ça aujourd’hui.

J’aime ça car cela créée des frictions, de nouvelles idées. Pouvez-vous parler à ce sujet ? <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;"><b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">MC :</span></b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;"> Ça fait des ennemis aussi. <i>Libération</i> ne parle jamais de mes livres, les <i>Cahiers</i> <i>du Cinéma</i> non plus. Je suis un peu écarté. Non j’ai beaucoup d’articles, je ne me plains pas. J’ai des articles dans le <i>Figaro</i>, dans <i>Le Monde</i>, dans les <i>Échos</i>, dans <i>L’Observateur</i> etc., donc je ne me plains pas mais c’est vrai que je suis stigmatisé à cause de la polémique. Les gens n’aiment pas. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;"><b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">DD :</span></b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;"> Je me souviens de mon premier numéro de <i>Positif</i>, c’était un hors-série avec le photographe Nicolas Guérin. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;"><b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">MC :</span></b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;"> Oui, un très bon photographe.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;"><b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">DD :</span></b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;"> L’écriture, c’est vraiment érudit. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;"><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">Donc ce que j’essaie de faire dans mon projet, c’est de présenter les différentes époques dans la critique parisienne et comme vous le disiez, à<i> Positif</i>, on ne voit pas vraiment les changements de l’intérieurs. Quand je regarde les 40 dernières années de <i>Positif</i>, comment pensez-vous que je peux voir où se passent les changements ?<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;"><b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">MC :</span></b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;"> C’est-à-dire, c’est un peu le changement dans la continuité, on ne peut pas dire que c’est la même revue qu’il y a 30 ans. Mais parce qu’il y a des gens qui sont arrivés, des nouveaux goûts etc. mais en même temps, il y a une forme de continuité, d’ailleurs que vous avez vu dans le numéro du mois de février. On a choisi les 10 meilleurs films des 10 dernières années. C’est intéressant de voir que les lecteurs sont très proches des rédacteurs, ça veut dire que par exemple si vous regardez la liste des <i>Cahiers</i>, c’est très très différent, il y a seulement un film en commun. C’est le film de Lars von Trier. C’était à Cannes. Comment il s’appelle ? C’est le plus beau, <i>Melancholia</i>. C’est le seul qui est en commun, tout le reste est différent. Par exemple, il y a des lecteurs, comme nous, ils ont mis dans les meilleurs metteurs en scène Nuri Bilge Ceylan, le Turc, Andrey Zvyagintsev, le Russe, ce sont des gens qui ne figurent pas dans la liste des<i> Cahiers</i>. Il y a aussi, comment il s’appelle, Terrence Malick et <i>The Tree of life</i> et puis Paul Thomas Anderson. Les lecteurs de <i>Positif</i> et les rédacteurs de <i>Positif</i> aiment tous ces metteurs en scène, qui ne figurent pas dans la liste des <i>Cahiers</i>. Même Kechiche, il est dans <i>Positif</i>, et il n’est pas dans les <i>Cahiers</i>. Ils aiment Leos Carax, Godard etc., donc c’est pas du tout les mêmes choix, pas du tout les mêmes choix. Il y a <i>Uncle Boonmee</i> de Weerasethakul pour les <i>Cahiers</i>, et pour <i>Positif</i>, il y a Todd Haynes, Paul Thomas Anderson, il y a Terrence Malick dans les Américains, il y a Nuri Bilge Ceylan, et je ne sais plus, Zvyagintsev. Je ne sais plus encore quels sont les 10 meilleurs. Et donc ça c'est des choix parce que ce sont des metteurs en scène nouveau ; on aime toujours Woody Allen et Eastwood, mais on n’a pas choisi Allen et Eastwood parce que on considérait que c’était déjà des classiques, on a préféré choisir des metteurs en scène qui ont apporté une nouveauté du point de vue du style etc. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;"><b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">DD :</span></b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;"> Je lis les deux revues et ce que j’aime de <i>Positif</i> c’est que c’est une fenêtre sur la vie cinéphile parisienne. Cela parle des livres, des films, des expositions, des DVD. Il y a tellement de matières dans une revue. C’est toujours fascinant. J’aime bien les blocs-notes aussi. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;"><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">Comment est-ce que ça s’est passé avec les différents éditeurs pendant les années ?<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;"><b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">MC :</span></b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;"> Aujourd’hui, c’est l’Institut Lumière et Thierry Frémaux qui dirige le Festival de Cannes et c’est Actes Sud. Il n’y a aucune interférence, jamais Frémaux nous a dit quoi que ce soit. Il n’est pas content parce que je fais des critiques sur Cannes comme je fais des critiques sur Berlin ou sur Venise. Ça ne lui plaît pas mais il ne dit rien. Il me le dit, mais il nous laisse la liberté totale. On ne sait pas ce qui va se passer avec les <i>Cahiers</i> puisqu’ils sont achetés maintenant. Il y a dix personnes qui ont mis de l’argent, dont cinq producteurs, ça c’est un vrai problème. Ils veulent changer la politique des <i>Cahiers</i> qui attaquaient beaucoup les films français. Ça, c’est une position très délicate. Mais moi, je ne juge pas. J’attends, j’attends de voir. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;"><b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">DD :</span></b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;"> Est-ce qu’il y a des rédacteurs en chef des <i>Cahiers </i>que vous étiez plus proche que d’autres ? <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;"><b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">MC :</span></b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;"> Oui, j’étais assez proche avec les différentes rédactions sauf l’époque Frodon-Burdeau qui étaient vraiment pour moi des ayatollahs insupportables. L’équipe aujourd'hui, d’ailleurs, ils ont eu l’élégance de me demander de mettre des étoiles comme d’ailleurs Benayoun dans les années 60, pareil. Donc les<i> Cahiers</i> ont souvent eu des rapports avec <i>Positif</i>qui étaient très antagonistes mais aussi pas du tout hostiles. C’était des antagonismes critiques, Chabrol aimait beaucoup Kyrou, Truffaut parlait avec Benayoun et cetera, donc ce n’était pas du tout de l’hostilité. Frodon, c’était vraiment de l’hostilité. Mais l’équipe aujourd’hui, oui, je ne comprends pas leur choix, j’ai du mal à voir les orientations, pourquoi ils aiment ceci et pas cela.

Il y a toute une partie qui présente des polémiques, des critiques polémiques. En particulier, j’attaque Tarantino – je n’attaque pas le metteur en scène – j’attaque Tarantino le champion des films cultes, qui défend des horreurs italien, de série Z plutôt que Fellini ou Antonioni. Je me plains de ce metteur en scène danois, comment il s’appelle, Nicolas Winding Refn, qui est un peut comme Tarantino qui collectionne des posters de cinéma, je trouve cela épouvantable mais j’aime beaucoup Tarantino comme metteur en scène, mais je trouve qu’il a tendance à encourager les jeunes vers l’absence de culture, les films culte, les série Z. C’est terrible.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;"><b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">DD :</span></b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;"> Ce que j’aime de <i>Positif</i>, c’est que je pense il y a, au moins au Canada ou au moins dans mon milieu, qu’on regarde moins de films mondiaux.

J’ai vu un documentaire sur ce film de 2h très intéressant qui est sorti en France en DVD avec le film et on se rend compte que sur ce plateau quand ils ont tourné le film. C’est un film de 15 minutes. Il y avait Samuel Beckett qui ne connaissait rien au cinéma qui n’avait jamais touché une caméra. Il y avait Alain Schneider qui avait fait une adaptation de <i>Godot </i>pour la télévision américaine mais qui ne connaissait pas vraiment le cinéma. Et il y avait un homme qui connaissait tout du cinéma, qui est un génie, qui était Buster Keaton, et on ne lui consultait pas. Et lui, il n’a rien compris au film. Il a dit : « c’est de l’avant-garde. Je ne comprends rien. Je ne sais pas ce que ça veut dire ce film. » Et finalement ce film qui n’est pas très bon, il est beaucoup moins bien que les films commerciaux de Buster Keaton parce que les films de Keaton c’était commercial. Il faisait des films pour le public pas pour les festivals. D’ailleurs en 65 quand il était à Venise, c’est la première fois qu’il est venu dans un festival de cinéma, en 1965. Il n’a jamais été dans un festival. Et tous ces deux hommes Beckett et Schneider auraient pu lui demander des conseils parce que c’était tout de même lui le génie du cinéma. Il était considéré comme un comédien comme ça. Et donc le cinéma commercial est parfois meilleur. Moi je préfère <i>Citizen Kane </i>à <i>Sleep</i> d’Andy Warhol.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: justify;"><b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;">DD :</span></b><span lang="FR" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt;"> Je suis surpris à Paris, Je crois que l’équipe <i>Positif</i> est beaucoup plus dans l’actualité et fait beaucoup plus de présentation de séances.

I highly value Michel Ciment (whom I was able to meet two or three times). I think of him today. – D.D.</span><span style="color: #202124;"><o:p></o:p></span></i></p><br />DD: You started at Positif with a review of the Orson Welles film, The Trial. How did that go?<br />MC: As it still happens today. That is to say that at Positif those who want to write, they send a text even if they are completely unknown, often they are unknown people. If the text that is read in the editorial committee is liked, we offer to publish it and then they can collaborate and then join the editorial committee. So when I was 25, I was shocked by the rather poor critical reception of Orson Welles’ film even in France and how it was compared to Kafka and so on. And how I knew Kafka and Orson Welles very well. I sent the article and I thought I couldn’t be published because in the issue that had just come out, there was a round table of seven-eight critics from Positif who discussed Le Procès for 15 pages. So I said now it’s over, I’ll come later. Not at all, they found my text interesting and they offered to publish it and then they asked me to collaborate with the magazine, to write articles, that was in ‘63. And in 1966, I joined the editorial board. But that’s how it happens all the time.<br /><br />DD: Who were the editors-in-chief at that time and was Bernard Chardère still there?<br />MC: No, no, no. Bernard Chardère, who is the founder, is the only editor-in-chief who has existed at Positif, because there has never been an editor-in-chief. Bernard Chardère was 7 numbers in Lyon and then he left for Algeria for the war. He was very young. He was 22, 23 years old. The contributors, there were two or three of them in Lyon who came to Paris. There were also other critics who worked in Paris and who had sympathy for Positif because it is a left-wing magazine and they were members of the surrealist group like Robert Benayoun, Ado Kyrou. They joined the Lyonnais, there were for example Roger Tailleur, Paul Louis Thirard, Louis Seguin. All together, they continued the magazine. There have been around 10 different publishers over 70 years.<br /><br />DD: In one of your “bloc-notes”, you talked about your visit to the Cahiers du Cinéma office, and your first meeting with Truffaut. You said: “I don’t like Godard’s texts, he always talks around films”. Can you talk about this and your meeting with Truffaut?<div>MC: My meeting with Truffaut? As I was a young cinephile and I was sympathetic to Positif for political reasons, and for the personality of people, like Benayoun and Tailleur, who were for me the two best critics that existed in France and also for the links with surrealism because I was very marked by surrealism in my youth when I was 20, 18 years more than by Sartre or by Camus I was more marked by Breton, the taste of the surrealists for all the arts, for poetry, painting, cinema. So, I was not exclusively cinema but also because surrealism was also a political movement, so there was a whole general culture that interested me but I also read Cahiers du Cinéma even if it was a very right-wing magazine. Not Bazin, he was more leftist, but the new generation, Rohmer, Truffaut, Godard, it was really a position. But they had a lot of judgment and they wrote very interesting articles. I liked Hitchcock, Hawks, Rossellini. I also obviously loved the Positif filmmakers like Buñuel, like Fellini, like Antonioni, like Houston.</div><div>So one day, I went to Cahiers du Cinéma to buy old issues because it was number 50 at the time. I wanted to buy issues that I didn’t have. And I saw a boy who was there, it was Truffaut who was sitting there and I said: “I really like what you write, what Rohmer and Rivette write but there is one that I don’t, I absolutely don’t understand, it’s Godard. He doesn't talk about films, he talks about something else. It’s not criticism.” He said to me: “you are wrong because he is the most talented of us all”. It’s funny because when I now reread, for example, Godard’s article on Amère Victoire by Nicholas Ray, the film I was thinking of. In his review, he doesn’t talk about the film at all, he talks about the Champs-Élysées, the machines, the pinballs. In fact, he talks about the young girls he likes to meet on the Champs-Élysées. In fact, he is talking about Breathless, which he had not yet filmed. But it’s already a film he was thinking about. So it wasn’t, he wasn’t doing film criticism, but he was doing criticism that announced the cinema that he was going to make.<br /><br />DD: In your life as a critic, what are the significant moments that have shaped you?</div><div>MC: The defining moment was my entry into Positif. That is to say a discussion every Sunday for three hours on cinema, and on lots of subjects. At the time, we were pretty much all from the same generation, the oldest, he was 10 years older than me. Since then it has changed a lot because I am going to be 82 years old. But there are people who are 75 years old, people who are 60 years old, people who are 40 years old, people who are 25 years old. So it’s a mix of generations which, in my opinion, makes Positif rich because Cahiers du Cinéma for example, they have completely changed every 15 years, the team totally changes and they have completely different policies. Whereas at Positif, there is continuity, but at the same time a change because the change is young people who arrive with different ideas, but who are in confrontation with older people. Older people bring their experience and young people bring their new perspective, so it’s a fairly unique magazine because we mixed all the generations.<br />Then my first interesting experience was doing interviews. I didn’t start with interviews. After two years, I started doing interviews with people like Glauber Rocha, Ruy Guerra, Dušan Makavejev, Richard Brooks, Abraham Polanski, John Boorman. All this in the 60s to 70s. It was a great experience. As I spoke English, I had the advantage of being able to do interviews directly in English with all these great filmmakers. Because I was lucky enough to belong to a generation which was a pivotal generation, a hinge, there were still the old filmmakers, the old people who continued to make films. I met John Ford. I met Raoul Walsh. I met Fritz Lang. I met Capra. I met King Vidor. I met von Sternberg. I met William Wellman. Well I met all these people because they were the old generation but I also knew the new generation, that means all the young people who were arriving in cinema in the 60s and 70s. That is to say Resnais, Truffaut, Chabrol, Skolimowski, Polanski, Glauber Rochar, the Swiss, Tanner, Soutter, Denys Arcand, the Canadians, Pierre Perrault.<br />I was lucky to be there at the time when there was the end of the greats, the historic greats and the arrival of the young, the youngest. Obviously Antonioni is not the youngest, but the whole generation of Makavejev, Skolimowski, Miklós Jancsó in Hungary, Tarkovsky, Konchalovsky and so on. All these people arrived in the 60s, it was an exceptional generation.<br />So that was another very important experience and then obviously the meeting with Kubrick but before meeting Kubrick, I did a book with Kazan which was very important for me in 1969/70. I was in Venice. I interviewed Barbara Loden, it was I believe the only interview she gave in her life with a very long interview on Wanda and Kazan was in Venice to accompany his wife. And I said to Kazan: “Would you like to do a book with me, of interviews like Truffaut/Hitchcock. We could do a big interview. The British Film Institute agrees. Finally, Kazan told me okay, you come, you come to my house in the country, in Sandy Hook, I have a house, I have a room for friends. You can stay 15 days and every day, we will talk. And so, I did my first book with Kazan, a book of interviews and then I met Kubrick around the same time for A Clockwork Orange and I did a very big interview and Kubrick loved it because I asked questions, that as I was a professor at the university, I was interested in culture in general and not just in cinema, I asked philosophical questions, historical questions, political questions etc., and so and also I totally respected the statements because he had been betrayed by amateur journalists, Swiss journalists, English journalists who would then transform what he had said so he was very suspicious. And he liked me, I was an academic, I was very strict about loyalty and I didn’t really do journalism but he adopted me and afterwards I was able to meet him several times on Barry Lyndon.<br />I think it was the only interview that he really gave on Barry Lyndon, he gave a little interview with Richard Schickel for Time. Mine was the only one he gave, because when they did the Kubrick archives, what the big publisher Taschen, The Kubrick Archives, when they wanted an interview per film and they asked me for my interview I answered them but I already published it and they told me, “yes, but there are no others, we looked all over the world, there are no other interviews on Barry Lyndon.” So I told them, “I’ll give you half the interview.” And then I saw Kubrick again on The Shining and Full Metal Jacket.<br /><br />DD: You mentioned a filmmaker that I adore, Alain Resnais. When he died, there is a big file in Positif that I read everything is so good. What was he like?</div><div>MC: He was a wonderful man. I spoke with him very often, almost once a week, we spoke because he had a lot of respect, because I knew the history of cinema and he liked to talk, and because obviously we defended his cinema which was a little abandoned by critics. Even the great films and even the films afterward that he made, which are often very original, very personal. So we spoke very often, he was an extremely modest man, perhaps not totally modest, but he hid his pride, very pleasant, very loyal in friendship, very curious about everything: experimentation, discovery, young directors, he loved Desplechin for example a lot, he was really interested in world cinema, he knew old Hollywood cinema and comedies admirably, Bob Hope and things like that, he loved Fellini and people like that, Antonioni too. He was very, very cultured, he liked classic French cinema Clouzot, René Clair and so on. No, he was a very extremely endearing man and totally like a child with a child’s curiosity, he could be interested in everything and was never afraid of ridicule, not afraid of ridicule, he could say what he wanted, like his cinema, he was a man open to all experiences.<br /><br /> DD: I really liked the Projection privée that you did on him after his death. For me, Alain Resnais is really the French director who marked the history of Positif, with the praise of Robert Benayoun, the twelve interviews.<br />When I try to define Positif it’s a bit of its title that comes to mind, that it’s going to be positive and more appreciative. Can this title, this spirit Lyonnais, to be more positive, mark its history? Because I imagine Cahiers is more Parisian, it’s perhaps more severe, violent. But Positif, there is a slightly lighter, more airy side.<br />MC: First of all, there is the fact that I have already told you that surrealism was a nourishing factor, which nourished Positif and there were collaborators in Brazil for example, and from Paraguay, who there were members of the Brazilian surrealist group which came in exile, who worked at Positif for a very long time. There were the Italians Goffredo Foffi and now Lorenzo Codelli. There was Petr Král who is a Czech, member of the Czech surrealist group who was a very great poet and who still is and who wrote a lot about cinema in a magnificent way. So there was an international spirit. Ado Kyrou was the oldest and he was Greek. So there was an international spirit with relationships with Belgium, with Switzerland, but also with Brazil, with Czechoslovakia, with England. Brunus who was also in England, was a member of the surrealist group in France. And who was also interested in politics.<br />Cahiers initially was right-wing and after they were Maoist, they were all the colors of the most extreme politics. Positif has always been a slightly anarchist, libertarian magazine where we made fun of fashions, the enthusiasms of fashions, and we said what we thought, what we liked in films without calculation. We never thought that cinema had to be something. We never said that cinema should. Cahiers, they have always given a direction: cinema must be polyphonic, it must be atonal, it must be distanced, and we never said that, we tried to see the films and if we liked them we said good things about them, that they were modern, because when we saw the first Brazilian films, the first Yugoslav films, the first Hungarian films, the first Quebecois films, we discovered the new, we did not theorize, we did not say cinema must be. For example, Cahiers said: “cinema is Godard and revolutionary Chinese films.” In 1970, Cahiers only liked films by Godard, Straub and Chinese Maoist films. It’s absurd.<br /><br />DD: I have the collections of the first two volumes of Positif and what I find striking is the humor in the texts, there was the profile of a director who did not exist. There were a lot of jokes. I rather like this lighter, humorous, surreal side.<br />MC: There is less of that today. Today, it’s less funny.<br /> <br />DD: You write a lot of polemics in your editorials. I like it because it creates friction, new ideas. Can you speak about this?<br />MC: It makes enemies too. Libération never talks about my books, neither does Cahiers du Cinéma. I’m a little sidetracked. No I get a lot of reviews, I’m not complaining. I have articles in Le Figaro, in Le Monde, in Les Échos, in L’Observateur etc. so I am not complaining but it is true that I am stigmatized because of the controversy. People don’t like it.<br /> <br />DD: I remember my first issue of Positif, it was a special issue with the photographer Nicolas Guérin.<br />MC: Yes, a very good photographer.<br /><br /> DD: The writing is really scholarly.<br />So what I try to do in my project is to present the different eras in Parisian criticism and as you said, at Positif, we don’t really see the changes from the inside. When I look at the last 40 years of Positif, how do you think I can see where the changes are happening?<br />MC: That is to say, it is a bit of a change in continuity, we cannot say that it is the same magazine as 30 years ago. But because there are people who have arrived, with new tastes etc. but at the same time, there is a form of continuity, moreover which you would have saw in the February issue. We have chosen the 10 best films of the last 10 years. It’s interesting to see that the readers are very close to the critics, that means that for example if you look at the list of Cahiers, it’s very very different, there is only one film in common. It’s the Lars von Trier’s film. It was in Cannes. What is its name? It’s the most beautiful, Melancholia. This is the only one that is in common, everything else is different. For example, there are readers, like us, they put in the best directors Nuri Bilge Ceylan, the Turk, Andrey Zvyagintsev, the Russian, these are people who do not appear in the Cahiers list. There is also, Terrence Malick and The Tree of Life and then Paul Thomas Anderson. The readers of Positif and the critics of Positif love all these directors, who do not appear in the Cahiers list. Even Kechiche, he is in Positif, and he is not in Cahiers. They like Leos Carax, Godard etc., so it’s not at all the same choices, not at all the same choices. There is Uncle Boonmee and Weerasethakul for Cahiers, and for Positif, there is Todd Haynes, Paul Thomas Anderson, there is Terrence Malick in the Americans, there is Nuri Bilge Ceylan, and I don't know anymore, Zvyagintsev. I don’t know which are the 10 best anymore. And so those are choices because they are new directors; we still love Woody Allen and Eastwood, but we didn’t choose Allen and Eastwood because we considered that they were already classics, we preferred to choose directors who brought something new from a stylistic point of view, etc.<br /><br /> DD: I read both magazines and what I like about Positif is that it is a window into Parisian film culture. It talks about books, films, exhibitions, DVDs. There is so much material in a magazine. It’s always fascinating. I like the “blocs-notes” section too.<br />How has it been with the different publishers over the years?<br />MC: Today, it is the Lumière Institute and Thierry Frémaux which directs the Cannes Film Festival and it is Actes Sud. There is no interference, Frémaux never told us anything. He is not happy because I critique Cannes like I review Berlin or Venice. He doesn’t like it but he doesn't say anything. He tells me, but he gives us total freedom. We don’t know what will happen with Cahiers since they are purchased now. There are ten people who put money in, including five producers, that’s a real problem. They want to change the policy of Cahiers which strongly attacked French films. That’s a very delicate position. But I don’t judge. I’m waiting, I’m waiting to see.<br /><br /> DD: Were there some editors-in-chief of Cahiers that you were closer to than others?<br />MC: Yes, I was quite close with the different editorial staff except the Frodon-Burdeau era who were really unbearable, ayatollahs for me. The team today, moreover, they had the elegance to ask me to put stars like Benayoun did in the 60s. So Cahiers often had relationships with Positif which were very antagonistic but also not at all hostile. They were critical antagonisms, Chabrol really liked Kyrou, Truffaut spoke with Benayoun et cetera, so it was not hostility at all. Frodon, it was definitely hostility. But the team today, yes, I don’t understand their choices, I have difficulty seeing the orientations, why they like this and not that. But, I speak with them, I have no particular aggressiveness.<br /><br /> DD: I quite like the editor-in-chief Charles Tesson.<br />MC: An older one.<br /> <br />DD: Yes, yes an older. In an editorial, Tesson celebrated the anniversary of Positif. I found it tender.<br />MC: I have a very good relationship with Tesson. Antoine de Baeque, I have a very good relationship with him. I don’t know what’s going on... but I published this book with Gallimard last year, called Une vie de cinéma. There is a whole section which presents controversies, polemical criticisms. In particular, I attack Tarantino – I do not attack the director – I attack Tarantino the defender of cult films, who defends Italian horrors, Z films rather than Fellini or Antonioni. I complain about this Danish director, what’s his name, Nicolas Winding Refn, who is a bit like Tarantino, who collects movie posters, I find it appalling but I really like Tarantino as a director, but I finds that it tends to encourage young people towards the absence of culture, cult films, Z series. It’s terrible.<br /><br /> DD: What I like about Positif is that I think, at least in Canada or at least in my milieu, we watch fewer world-films. In Positif, I discover films from countries that I don’t really know much about. This gives me the desire to explore international cinema even if sometimes the subject is heavy, there is still a cinematographic gesture in these films.<br /> MC: Yes, we try. I think we are more open, it is a more open magazine because it has fewer dogmas. It doesn’t try to put all the films in the same bottle, to bring them in, it’s an opening. For example, almost in every issue, there is an unknown or not very well-known director. For example, the March issue, there will be the director from Singapore who made Ilo Ilo, which won the Caméra d’or, 4 or 5 years ago and there he made his second film. We did an interview with him in Singapore. That’s it, we’re trying to renew too.<br /> <br />DD: How is thought the column in Positif where you republish older article, “Voix-off”?<br />MC: These are not articles from Positif. We republish them because they are not known, they are published in translation. I am the one who provides texts because I have large collections of books and magazines. And there we recently published a text by Micheál MacLiammóir on Orson Welles. Magnificent, a wonderful text. It was sleeping in a Sight & Sound from 1955, I don’t know, maybe 56. And there, we’re going to do a dossier, Buster Keaton, there is an interview with Buster Keaton from Sight & Sound of seven extraordinary pages where Buster Keaton talks about the setting of scenes from his films with an incredible memory where he explains the gags of General, Navigator and all that in an incredibly precise way. Nobody knows about this interview now because it’s completely forgotten.<br /> <br />DD: Is there any Buster Keaton event happening now?<br />MC: No, the event is what we want to do. I know there have been several DVDs that have come out of Keaton and restored. It’s a form of news but that’s because we haven’t written about Keaton for 20, 30, 40 years. We did a lot of articles at the time. Not back then, in the 70s and now 50 years later, we think it’s good to come back to Buster Keaton.<br />I had fun, for example, in the dossier, I talk about the film by Alain Schneider, Film by Samuel Beckett with Buster Keaton. I saw a documentary on this very interesting, a 2-hour film, which was released in France on DVD with the film, and we realize that on this set when they shot the film… It’s a 15 minute film. There was Samuel Beckett who knew nothing about cinema and had never touched a camera. There was Alain Schneider who had made an adaptation of Godot for American television but who didn’t really know cinema. And there was a man who knew everything about cinema, who was a genius, who was Buster Keaton, and they didn’t consult him. And he didn’t understand anything about the film. He said: “It’s avant-garde. I do not understand. I don’t know what this movie means.” And finally this film which is not very good, it is much less good than Buster Keaton’s commercial films because Keaton’s films were commercial. He made films for the public, not for festivals. Besides, in 65 when Keaton was in Venice, it was the first time he came to a film festival, in 1965. He had never been to a festival. And all these two men Beckett and Schneider could have asked him for advice because he was after all the genius of cinema. He was considered a comedian like that. And so commercial cinema is sometimes better. I prefer Citizen Kane to Sleep by Andy Warhol.<br /><br /> DD: I’m surprised in Paris. I think the Positif team is much more in the public and does a lot more presentations. It seems that you have won a little on this ground.<br />MC: I don’t know. What is certain is that the Grand Action is old films, the past, heritage, previews, at the Forum des Images, it is the future film. This represents a bit of the duality of the magazine. It’s a bit of a balance between that, between very serious studies, for example in the next issue, there is a magnificent article on Joachim Phoenix, fantastic. There is also a very good text on Joseph Losey. I think it’s in the next issue and then we’re going to publish a very beautiful text from the best French editor Yann Dedet on Makavejev. Because he worked with Makavejev for two films and it’s a splendid text about Makavejev with memories of filming etc. So we try not to always aim for relevancy, there is a large part of the new, but there is also film history, and with a more quality literary dimension.<br /></div>David D.http://www.blogger.com/profile/14646599764019358808noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3552793787451945445.post-49960380515651201242022-12-15T10:18:00.017-06:002023-01-16T09:26:53.548-06:00Top Ten Films of 2022 <b style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><u><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">David Davidson</span></u></b><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">- À vendredi, Robinson</span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> (Mitra Farahadi, Jean-Luc Godard)<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">- Crimes of the Future</span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> (David Cronenberg)<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">- Geographies of Solitude</span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> (Jacquelyn Mills)<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">- <b>Queens of Qing Dynasty</b> (Ashley McKenzie)<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">- The Maiden</span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> (Graham Foy)<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">- Turning Red</span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> (Domee Shi)<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">- Pacifiction</span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> (Albert Serra)<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">- The Batman</span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> (Matt Reeves)<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">- The Handmaid’s Tale</span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> – Season 5 (Margaret Atwood, Elisabeth Moss)<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">- <b>The Fabelmans</b> (Steven Spielberg)<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">- <b>Nope </b>(Jordan Peele), <b>Wakanda Forever</b> (Ryan Coogler), <b>The Way of Water </b>(James Cameron), and <o:p></o:p></span><b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Babylon </span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">(Damien Chazelle)</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">+ 1 old film: <b>In Harm’s Way</b><i> </i>(Otto Preminger, 1965)<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Next year I look forward to new films by Kazik Radwanski, Matt Johnson, Rebeccah Love, Nicole Dorsey, Erik Anderson, Alan Jones, Mitch Greenberg, and Andrew Stanley.

The Canadian legend himself was there to introduce his film, and over the course of our brief conversation, he described his cinematic philosophy as ‘Hegelian’. Over the years, I’ve often pondered this enigmatic and polyvalent statement, unsure whether I’d ever fully grasp its meaning. Having recently seen Rebeccah Love’s <b>Eve Parade</b>, I believe I have inched closer to understanding what the Canadian legend meant.</span><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm; text-indent: 36pt;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Rebeccah Love’s cinema strikes me as Hegelian. Each film in Love’s cinema is an antithesis and synthesis to what came before it, and each new Love film presents us with a new thesis that will surely be challenged and reshaped by her future work. Like the work of any great artist, her oeuvre is like an entropic spiral in conversation with itself, growing truer with each swing of the pendulum.</span><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm; text-indent: 36pt;"><b><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Eve Parade</span></b><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> is a synthesis of everything that Love has directed before it, and also marks a new direction. With <b>Eve Parade</b>, Love takes story elements from her past work and reshapes them into something new: a film about courage.</span><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm; text-indent: 36pt;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Love begins the film with a static montage of idyllic bliss - we see a peaceful coterie of presumably upper-middle class neighbours enjoying a pleasant afternoon in the liminal spaces of their front porches. When Love cuts to the film’s protagonist, Eve, the camera loses its static positioning, as if to signal the chaos that is about to unfold.</span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm; text-indent: 36pt;"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Eve directly addresses the camera, divulging her hopes and fears with eloquence and bravery. She divulges her neurodivergence directly to the camera as her neighbours watch with pity and misunderstanding. “I know things,” Eve whispers to us. Indeed, she does - she’s the only character aware that she’s in a film.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm; text-indent: 36pt;"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Eve’s neighbours pity her, dismissing her monologue as the babble of a sick person despite the fact that Eve is the only one among them who is aware of their metaphysical context. This reminded me of an insight about Renaissance attitudes towards insanity shared by Foucault in his <b>Madness & Civilization</b>: in Renaissance visual arts, ‘the mad’ are often ascribed a knowledge of the limits of the world, and in Renaissance literature, ‘the mad’ are people who reveal the distinction between what people are, and what people pretend to be. Of course, these attitudes have persisted well into the 19th, 20th, and now 21st centuries (think of Prince Myshkin from <b>The Idiot</b>, or even the Riddler from <b>The Batman</b>, who reveals the sordid corruption of Gotham’s leadership).</span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm; text-indent: 36pt;"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Mid-monologue, Eve is swiftly corralled by her neighbours and marched to a nearby hospital. Eve responds to this with fear, but also with profound courage. Despite her terror, she marches on, encouraged by her community.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm; text-indent: 36pt;"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">The hospital is a place where people diagnosed with mental illnesses are habitually forced to take antipsychotic medications (which can result in tardive dyskinesia, weight gain, diabetes). The hospital is a place where the rights of people diagnosed with mental illnesses are often trampled (hospitals habitually detain their psychiatric patients, place them in isolation, place them in restraints, force them to undergo painful and horrific treatments against their will). Given this context, Eve’s concerns about heading to the hospital strike me as entirely reasonable.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm; text-indent: 36pt;"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Halfway through the film, one of Eve’s neighbours shares a story about a dog who was abused at a kennel. It’s a major highlight of the film - through this story, Rebeccah Love allegorically synthesizes with succinct and powerful writing the experience of systematic abuse that neurodivergent people have experienced at the hands of psychiatric institutions. This reminded me of a short anecdote about a beaten donkey from a Dostoyevsky novel (which was later adapted into <b>Au hasard Balthazar</b> by Robert Bresson). Love’s story about the beaten dog holds so much power that I wish one day to see her adapt it into a purely allegorical film.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm; text-indent: 36pt;"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">What is so remarkable about <b>Eve Parade</b> (<i>inter alia</i>) is the immediacy with which the theme of courage is explored. We see Eve confronted with coercion, misunderstanding, pity, and condescension. We see Eve corralled towards a hospital where she has likely experienced all kinds of horrors. Despite these horrors, despite these humiliations, Eve marches forward like a warrior. And like Eve, I look forward to seeing Rebeccah Love continue to courageously march forward - into unexplored cinematic territory.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p><p align="right" class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm; text-align: right;"><i><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Mitch Greenberg</span></i></p>David D.http://www.blogger.com/profile/14646599764019358808noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3552793787451945445.post-44760874406248533092022-01-01T13:31:00.007-06:002022-01-02T17:40:53.933-06:00Top Ten Films of 2021<i style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">In memory of Jean-Marc Vallée…</span></i><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p><p align="center" class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-size: medium; text-align: center;"><b><u><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">David Davidson<o:p></o:p></span></u></b></p><p align="center" class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-size: medium; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">- <b>Matt and Bird Break Loose</b> (Matt Johnson) and <b>The Beatles: Get Back</b> (Peter Jackson)<o:p></o:p></span></p><p align="center" class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-size: medium; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">- <b>Memoria</b> (Apichatpong Weerasethakul)<o:p></o:p></span></p><p align="center" class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-size: medium; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">- </span><b><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Wheel of Fortune and Fantasy</span></b><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> and <b>Drive My Car</b> (Ryûsuke Hamaguchi)</span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p align="center" class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-size: medium; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">- </span><b><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Tralala </span></b><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">(Arnaud and Jean-Marie Larrieu)</span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p align="center" class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-size: medium; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">- </span><b><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">The French Dispatch</span></b><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> (Wes Anderson), </span><b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">The Tsugua Diaries</span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> (Maureen Fazendeiro, Miguel Gomes), <b>Cry Macho</b> (Clint Eastwood)<o:p></o:p></span></p><p align="center" class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-size: medium; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">- <b>Ste.

(Episode 7)<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"> <span style="text-align: center;"><i style="font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, FreeSerif, serif;">I'm happy to share Nathan Powell's new episode of his great Hamilton gonzo </i><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, FreeSerif, serif;"><i>web-series <b>Steel Town Gaming </b>and an introduction by him where he explains his process. I highly recommend it ! </i></span></span><i style="font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, FreeSerif, serif; text-align: center;">- D.D.</i></span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><i style="background-color: white; font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, FreeSerif, serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: center;">***</i></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Hello to all fans of filmmaking, Toronto, and the online world at large!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">It’s quite an honour to be featured on the Toronto Film Review blog. Back in the day, when I was an increasingly disillusioned film student in my final years of college, this place was an invaluable resource for many things, and particularly for its coverage of Matt Johnson and <i>Nirvanna the Band the Show</i>. I don’t mean to gloss over the work David has been doing to elevate obscure voices in the Toronto film scene (myself included!) or to shed light on this country’s most esoteric works of filmmaking, but David’s complete list of every single Matt Johnson project is one page I’m certain every fan of the show has seen, if not bookmarked. Just to inhabit space on this same blog is incredible.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">To that end, inspiration can be a powerful thing. For those who don’t know the deal, <i>Steel Town Gaming</i> is a mockumentary comedy web-series about video games, nostalgia, and the city of Hamilton. It follows the strained relationship between two high school buds who reunite as adults to try and make a web show, and that hard-to-articulate loneliness of adulthood. The early episodes of <i>Steel Town Gaming</i> owe a great deal to Matt Johnson, but as the show has continued, I like to think it has become its own thing. Which shouldn’t surprise anyone, because it has taken us <i>four years</i>to get here. When this is all over, I’ll hopefully be a very different filmmaker than when I started.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Getting to imitate your heroes if a wonderful thing. But in breaking the story of this episode, I experienced the flip side of inspiration, which is the utter chaos of working in a medium so undefined, there’s almost no one to steal from. “Natalya Follows You” jumps back and forth between an online game and the IRL world, and finding the narrative balance between those spaces, as well as the overall tone of the story, was quite tricky. Going into this, I swear, I only knew of one other media product to attempt a similar thing, and that was the Warcraft episode of South Park. I was making up my own rules as I went. (Ironically there’s a low-budget Canadian film that jumps between an MMORPG and the IRL world, and Matt Johnson plays a bit part in that. It’s one of his few appearances which I have not seen.)<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">I greatly appreciate David giving me this space to share the episode, hopefully you enjoy watching it. Having mostly disappeared from society during the last two years, I found great joy in getting to emerge from the void with such a strange and experimental project that even some of my close friends didn’t know about. There are so many films you simply cannot make during a global pandemic (at least, not without money), and I was very, very lucky to have a script with so many scenes of just people sitting alone in rooms. If I didn’t have this episode to work on, I would have already gone full Jack Torrance by, like, May 2020.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">All the best,<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Nathan Powell</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"><o:p></o:p></span></p><div style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; text-align: center;"><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/PiDzZIx6yPA" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe></div><p></p>David D.http://www.blogger.com/profile/14646599764019358808noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3552793787451945445.post-22575767349945081492021-07-13T14:53:00.005-05:002021-07-13T15:03:20.288-05:00Film Review : Parlour Palm by Rebeccah Love<p style="text-align: center;"><i>I'm happy to share my friend's Mitch Greenberg's review of Rebeccah Love's newest short film, </i>Parlour Palm, <i>currently streamable via <a href="https://gem.cbc.ca/media/canadian-reflections/season-1/parlour-palm/38e815a-013f3d55fd1?fbclid=IwAR0MvTanKV1irvOYKcIlovbVFfiFuV4siVJXFhPYM8ZJieFaK2l-zj-04KU">CBC Gem</a> as part of the Future of Film Showcase. - D.D.</i> </p><p style="text-align: center;"><i style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">***</span></i></p><p><i style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"></span></i></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><i style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijON63Z506NN0lmkj-U168i-umVypvAuyxOhmjVgeY1HjSRwhntS_F3dfESVRVthPOp5RizW-OPxtUwQOD6M3euFMU867sIyFbHxWKsk3NB1W_HyCBmPImN9fA2P4JXXE2T1nczJGJpqU//" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="576" data-original-width="1024" height="180" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijON63Z506NN0lmkj-U168i-umVypvAuyxOhmjVgeY1HjSRwhntS_F3dfESVRVthPOp5RizW-OPxtUwQOD6M3euFMU867sIyFbHxWKsk3NB1W_HyCBmPImN9fA2P4JXXE2T1nczJGJpqU//" width="320" /></a></i></div><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"><i>Parlour Palm </i>is everything the Canadian critical establishment has celebrated: an uncanny re-presentation of psychosis, an animated domestic drama, a philosophical enigma. But these remain insufficient grounds of celebration. <i>Parlour Palm </i>is something more: it is a rebuttal to Canadian cinema’s ‘tradition of quality’.</span><p></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm;"><o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm; text-indent: 36pt;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Canadian audiences have long lamented the general malaise of our national cinema, and providence has responded with <i>Parlour Palm,</i> a narrative art object of remarkable formal and thematic unity.</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm; text-indent: 36pt;"><i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Parlour Palm</span></i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> begins with a static montage depicting the idyllic domestic life of partners Brayden and Mel. Rebeccah Love ingeniously frames the montage as though framing a doll’s house: her heroes live in spiritually hollow comfort, in atomized bliss.</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="caret-color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; margin: 0cm; text-indent: 36pt;"><span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">But when Mel’s growing obsession with the apocalyptic implications of climate change clashes with Brayden’s professional ambitions, the plastic coating of their domestic life whittles away, revealing the scarred skin and strained sinews of Mel’s psychic terror.</span><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="caret-color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; margin: 0cm; text-indent: 36pt;"><span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">As Mel’s obsession deepens, her thoughts and behaviour gradually grow more disorganized. Love depicts Mel’s decompensation from the confines of the dining room, as if Mel’s entire life is contained within those four walls.</span><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="caret-color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; margin: 0cm; text-indent: 36pt;"><span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">The irony of Mel’s obsession with the environment is well observed: living as a virtual shut-in, Mel’s window into climate change is purely digital. She learns everything about climate change inorganically, through the mediation of a computer screen. She is remarkably disconnected from ‘the natural world’: she lives hermetically, has no professional life, no social life, no discernible hobbies, and her sole connection to ‘the environment’ exists through her coveted plant that sits listlessly in her parlour.</span><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="caret-color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; margin: 0cm; text-indent: 36pt;"><span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Given Mel’s hermetic existence, what could possibly be driving her obsession with climate change? Is her empathy theoretical, or does she personally know anyone suffering the consequences of climate change? Or perhaps her obsession with climate change functions as a psychological totem for more personal existential anxieties? And despite the remoteness of climate change to Mel’s life, are Mel’s anxieties reasonable given the magnitude of the impending climate apocalypse? Is it Brayden who’s living in pathological denial?</span><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="caret-color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; margin: 0cm;"><span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Fortunately, Love doesn’t answer these questions. To answer the basic questions of Mel’s psychology would be to neuter the film’s libidinal, mysterious energies. </span></span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">The mystery surrounding Mel’s decompensation is partly what makes the character so compelling. Sarah Swire’s performance of Mel is so immediate, audacious, and fearless, that Rebeccah Love rightly eschews any crude moments of psychological exposition.</span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="caret-color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; margin: 0cm; text-indent: 36pt;"><span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">The climax of the film occurs in a long take depicting a now floridly psychotic Mel giving some kind of theatrical performance for Brayden. Mel has transformed the dining room into a theatre, and she delivers a strange and compelling performance that includes poetry and song, in which she indicts Brayden, and herself, and the world, for their complicity in contributing to Mother Earth’s murder.</span><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="caret-color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; margin: 0cm; text-indent: 36pt;"><span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Rebecca Love’s cinema is a cinema of dramatic immediacy and formal invention. Love unifies Mel’s claustrophobia with an artificial, theatrical cinematic form. It’s as if Swire’s Mel is trapped within the artifice of the form itself, struggling to break free.</span><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="caret-color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; margin: 0cm; text-indent: 36pt;"><span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Mel is a character in the same vein as Brecht’s Galileo, or</span><span class="apple-converted-space"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 15pt;"> </span></span><i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">The Matrix’s</span></i><span class="apple-converted-space"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 15pt;"> </span></span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Neo, or</span><span class="apple-converted-space"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 15pt;"> </span></span><i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">A Woman Under the Influence</span></i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">’s Mabel - Mel is a woman persecuted for her revelation of</span><span class="apple-converted-space"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 15pt;"> </span></span><i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">the truth</span></i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">.</span><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="caret-color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; margin: 0cm;"><span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">I find myself left with this question about Love’s formalism: Is <i>Parlour Palm a</i> social film realized in cinematic terms?

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">There’s Buster Keaton, bored, at a graduation ceremony, in a full academic robe and square cap, as his peers brightly look towards the future. How to interpret his recognizable blank expression? While his cohort seems excited at the prospects of being indoctrinated into “civil” society, Keaton’s heart is elsewhere, that blank stare perfectly expressing that dread of imposed restrictions. </span></div>

<o:p></o:p><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">The still is from <i>College</i> and it graces the cover of the penultimate issue of Stéphane Delorme’s editorship of <i>Cahiers du Cinéma</i>. Delorme writes in its editorial “The End” that the current team <i>had </i>to leave out of principal due to the recent purchase of the magazine by high profile French producers and businessmen. Their departure is a protest against the concentration of press outlets into the hands of a narrower group of millionaires that have close ties to the political sector. This is an ontological conflict of interest. Delorme writes, “The health of <i>Cahiers</i> is its virulence. That it be as firm as possible in the service of ideas, passions and convictions.” This is one of the reasons its readers liked <i>Cahiers</i> so much. They inspired faith to strengthen one’s convictions.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"> The issue’s feature dossier is on the pedagogy of cinema studies and film production programs in French universities and colleges. This is representative of the Delorme ethos. He saw <i>Cahiers</i> as a place for youth to discover cinema and to be inspired. Each new issue offered strong ideas that formed a basis to argue for a counterculture. It would be a place to foster curiosity and idealism for an emerging generation of youth.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">I always imagined the <i>Cahiers </i>team like rebels on the school yard. That it be a gateway drug towards a counterculture for cinephiles. It was never for the sake of aggressivity but instead to protest ideals that become withered due to neoliberal policies. Bertold Brecht ironized, “What is the robbing of a bank compared to the building of one?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">Jean-Philippe Tessé speaks of being a <i>Cahiers</i> critic in terms of having a monk-like existence. There should be no galas or careerism, impositions or compromises. Nothing. All that matters is an unburdened relationship to the screen and to be sincere and trenchant about what you felt and saw. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">Jean-Sébastien Chauvin addresses what’s essential about films through his teaching, “I ask my students to start off with an emotion instead of trying to artificially impose a meaning onto a scene. To follow the through line of the emotion as it progresses through different shots and editing… to be able to understand the organic relationship that unites its sensation to its cinematographic qualities. If the emotion is palpable, it’s that the surface of the image is hiding a secret. The emotion is usually volatile and subjective, but it should be your first guide, a compass.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"> The reviewed films could sometimes be esoteric if you don’t live in Paris. For example, in the last two issues they featured <i>Kongo, Si c’était de l’amour, Né à Jérusalem (et toujours vivant), Brooklyn Secret, Monsieur Deligny: vagabond efficace, La Communion, Abou Leila </i>and<i> Hotel by the River. </i>Films that I can guarantee would never be released, even in better times, in Toronto. But in every issue, out of their plethora of texts, there were still many fascinating things to read. In these last two issues there are impressive features on the major French directors Jean-Daniel Pollet and Anne-Marie Miéville; an impressive overview of Australian genre films; interviews with John Waters and Hollywood’s bugman Steven Kutcher; and homages to Kirk Douglas and Max von Sydow. To end it all they even put together an impressive thirty-page dossier on how they defined their period and what makes for good film criticism.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"> I always admired their team especially in response to a lack that I’ve felt in the Canadian context. We don’t really have a comparable close-knit group here, at least in Toronto, that discusses and writes about what gets made. People have their allotted territory and there’s no encroaching upon it. Everyone is compartmentalised and no one speaks to each other. It’s to a point that there’s no way to see the bigger picture and everyone loses. It’s really sad. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">And on top of that critics are so poorly perceived by the industry, especially in Toronto, where the industry is too complacent in pandering to American productions for money and work or promoting mediocrities barren of any regional specificities and that nobody wants to see. There are exceptions, of course, but they’re usually the outliers that prove the rule.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">Only by coming together as a group can our voices be heard. You have to believe that people <i>can</i> come together. You have to be hopeful for it to the point of a naïve optimism. Because you can’t create a culture on the basis of lament. I think that is what really is at stakes in terms of the future of Canadian cinema. To imagine, once the cinemas re-open up, that folks from a variety of backgrounds, strangers and friends, could come together and talk to each other, particularly about Canadian films. That’s really hope. Cinema, and <i>Cahiers</i>, offers a useful tool to do this and to think about ways to make it possible. As Stéphane Delorme writes, “Criticism is the art of kindness because cinema is the art of kindness.” It’ll either be a swan song to wanting the best of the world or nothing at all.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<b><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">4. Berlin Bound Thursday, February 20</span></b><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"> I got to Orly in Paris without any problems, which is the first stop on my way to Germany, but after arriving in Berlin there’s the initial culture shock of being in a country where you can’t speak or understand the language: it’s hard to talk to people and to know exactly where you’re going. But things have a way of working out and I eventually get to my hostel Singer109 (which is close to Jannowitzbrücke) without any problems. The place is tidy and clean. I’ll be sharing a room with seven other people – something I’m not looking forward to – but I’ll probably just be there to sleep, anyways.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjh6yNuMUScVzzLc-E1J3xzexTqqLZR1EVxeYvVmwbxISBIwb0Joq3VRYYdv-Ihf9skoGsSxKrDz_YqWfmgAArY-rCZ94bbF0VF3RYTH1d9j1BaPEwSyVu6Xynx1vDMt8AZjVE3I7iWS_A/s1600/IMG_0232.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="590" data-original-width="750" height="251" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjh6yNuMUScVzzLc-E1J3xzexTqqLZR1EVxeYvVmwbxISBIwb0Joq3VRYYdv-Ihf9skoGsSxKrDz_YqWfmgAArY-rCZ94bbF0VF3RYTH1d9j1BaPEwSyVu6Xynx1vDMt8AZjVE3I7iWS_A/s320/IMG_0232.jpg" width="320" /></a><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"> Then off Potsdamer Platz to pick up the accreditation badge. I hang around the Grand Hyatt, which is the headquarters for press, and surprisingly and which is quite nice, I run into a few friends that are there for the festival. There’s quite a few Canadians in Berlin: critics, programmers and directors. The Berlinale really changed this year as there’s new artistic directors and programmers that have created more cohesion between the different programs. On paper the selection looks really strong. (Jordan Cronk has a good <a href="https://www.filmcomment.com/blog/berlinale-2020-preview/">piece</a> on these changes over at <i>Film Comment</i>). It’s charming being in Berlin – the city of Siegfried Kacauer and Fritz Lang, Walter Benjamin and Rainer Werner Fassbinder – and people seem to be in a good mood.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"> Ended up hanging out with Ariel, Mathieu and Olivier from <i><a href="http://www.panorama-cinema.com/">Panorama-cinéma</a></i> (a Montreal-based online film magazine) and later Pearl. After a long touristic stroll throughout the city – a polite way to say we got lost and wandered around –, which included some really great conversations, we ended up at the bar Anna Koschke. It was nice to start the festival catching up with some friends and hearing how they’re doing. After a couple of drinks and some charcuterie we all made our way home. I had trouble sleeping.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
<b><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">5.</span></b><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"> <b>First Day Friday, February 21<o:p></o:p></b></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
<b><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"> </span></b><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">I had trouble getting into a couple of films… But eventually got to see Natalia Meta’s <i>The Intruder </i>in the Berlinale Palast. It’s the story of Inés, an Argentinian singer and voice actress, who slowly descends into madness either due to medication, childhood trauma or supernatural causes. It’s meant to be ambiguous. <i>The Intruder </i>progresses through cycles of scenes of Inés struggling with her voice, having it examined, seeing a romantic interest and then hallucinating. But something doesn’t work and it quickly becomes monotonous. The actress Erica Rivas is good but <i>The Intruder</i> progresses through scenes of humiliation, having no agency, being forced-fed pills. It becomes pathetic. If there’s a critique of toxic masculinity or repercussions of trauma, it becomes so watered down to fit the mold of the art-house horror film. Similar to my critique of the Uruguayan film <i>The Moneychanger,</i> its characters are so uninteresting and unlikeable that there’s no interest to want to follow or to see what happens to them. I always wonder about the motivation behind these types of films: why bathe in misery when you can look at the world for inspiration?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">This is in contrast to the charisma and charm, intensity and melancholy of films like <i>The Irishman </i>or <i>The Farewell </i>where there are stakes and motivations in following its characters. By pushing <i>The Intruder </i>towards the giallo genre (you can tell that Argento is an influence) but not far enough, Natalia Meta creates a mood that’s only remotely eerie. So it doesn’t have the aesthetic effect of awe and mystery, but only of boredom and irritation. For a great Spanish art-house horror film that mixes violence and eros, I’d recommend Alejandro Amenábar’s <i>Tesis</i>, which is already 24 years old.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"> <i>Tommaso</i>. Now that felt good. It was surprising to see it play in six different cinemas in Berlin while it was only playing in one in Paris and it’s never been shown in Canada. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">Partly on my way to Moviemento to see it the subway stopped four stops earlier. It was hectic. I ended up having to jog forty-minutes to get there. Moviemento is a hole-in-the-wall cinema and one of the oldest in Germany. I ended up being one of only two other people there to watch it and it felt appropriate watching this grungy film in this grungy cinema. <i>Tommaso</i>’s images are rough and dirty. Its rawness comes from its non-industrial early digital video aesthetic.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<i><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">Tommaso </span></i><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">is really delicate, and like Philippe Garrel or Hong sang-soo, Abel Ferrara breaks away any interval between his life and art. Willem Dafoe stars in it as surrogate for the director who now teaches acting classes in Rome while spending time with his family, taking Italian classes, writing a script and going to narcotics anonymous meetings. It feels like a late Rembrandt painting as Ferrara captures the weariness of a heavy life. There’s a new start for him – Ferrara’s in a new country, with his wife and daughter – but it</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; text-indent: 36pt;">’</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; text-indent: 36pt;">s burdened by regret and disappointment. It’s filmed in heavy shadows and in darkness. Ferrara seems inspired by the great Italian directors like Roberto Rossellini. He creates a hybrid work that’s part documentary – filming the surroundings, people and atmosphere – and fiction – he injects Dafoe and his family to propel the story. Dafoe is the intense force that propels </span><i style="font-family: "times new roman", serif; text-indent: 36pt;">Tommaso</i><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; text-indent: 36pt;"> and the improvisational quality of his performance feels like a return to his early underground theater beginning. There are imaginary scenes that intensify his emotional character arc. There’s a rawness to it that’s closer to </span><i style="font-family: "times new roman", serif; text-indent: 36pt;">4:44 Last Day on Earth </i><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; text-indent: 36pt;">but without the artificiality of the apocalypse film genre.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">Throughout <i>Tommaso</i> there are insert shots of older musicians playing folkloric instruments. This is Ferrara’s late style and it’s so great to see him be so intimate and personal. It ends with a home-video scene of his three-year-old daughter dancing to music so awkwardly. In <i>Tommaso</i> beauty is everywhere, but there’s also a violent passion, and Ferrara knows brilliantly how to present both of these qualities together. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

It’s not at all like the other Martin films of his that I’ve seen, which isn’t many to be honest, though I’ve really like <i>Buenas noches, España</i> with its experimental style and shifting film stock, and <i>La última película,</i> of course. <i>Death of Nintendo</i> is a lot more mainstream – and at the Berlinale it was in the children-themed Generation section – and it’s about a group of three boys (and one sister) who really want to get circumcised (a cultural reference that I don’t get). There’s a pop filmmaking style that recalls Linklater, <i>Stranger Things</i> and maybe Araki (though not as traumatic or taboo). I’m not really sure how to judge “children films” – or at least this one – since they rest upon a nostalgia – the film takes place in the eighties and is set around lazy weekends and Nintendo video games – and has an innocence and naïve quality, which isn’t how the world really works. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

But I ended up really getting into it and found it to be really strong. If <i>Death of Nintendo</i> is a mother-and-son childhood film – I forgot to mention a fantastic scene of the two sitting outdoors as a volcano is erupting with ash falling everywhere, which is as poetic as anything by Apichatpong – <i>Onwards,</i> on the other hand, is a film about brothers. I really identified with its protagonist, this little teen Ian, and his love-hate relationship with his brother Barley. On one of Ian’s adolescent birthdays they uncover a magical history hidden throughout the land (this is the cutesy child’s business that’s kind of ridiculous) and they spend a couple of days trying to uncover its secrets to try to relive a moment with their deceased father. I found it extremely touching and its emotions of sibling rivalry and resentment, bonding and respect to be quite precise. There’s a pop and a snap to its adventure storytelling and it has some fun references to Spielberg (<i>Raiders</i>,<i> Ready Player One</i>). <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"> The first major event of the festival is Kelly Reichardt’s <i>First Cow</i>. I published a Twitter <a href="https://twitter.com/TOFilmReview/status/1231211921002635264">thread</a> about why I like it so much but unlike <i>Meek’s Cutoff</i>, where Reichardt revisits the western genre but with a critical perspective on gender issues and colonialism that is purposely unpleasurable, here in <i>First Cow</i> those themes are pushed towards the background as it instead focuses on two westerners, a scavenger and a Chinese immigrant trader, and their comradery and struggle within a hostile landscape. <i>First Cow</i> is about the first cow that arrives in Oregon in the eighteen-hundreds and how these two outsiders end up stealing its milk to make and sell doughnuts. It takes this premise to experiment with ideas of mise-en-scène to create hypnotizing scenes of what it’s meant to live, spend time with someone else and to live in the the woods. <i>First Cow</i> is up there with <i>Rio Bravo </i>as one of the most beautiful cabin westerns about friendship. And like how the opening scene illustrates, <i>First Cow </i>shows the United States as being full of unmarked graves of those who have been defeated. It has a tragic history hidden in plain sight.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"> What is there to say about the new Philippe Garrel film <i>Le sel des larmes</i>? First off, he’s one of my favorite filmmakers and has made some of my favorite films: <i>L’enfant secret, J'entends plus la guitare, Le vent de la nuit </i>and I really liked his recent films too. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<i><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">Le sel des larmes </span></i><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">has everything that I would have liked about a Philippe Garrel film – a tragic love story, gorgeous black-and-white cinematography, and this time starting off in Montreuil – but it doesn’t work: there isn’t any chemistry between the actors, the dialogue doesn’t ring true and the plot doesn’t flow. It plays like a variation of his usual material: There’s a carpenter Luc in his thirties who has a few affairs as he shares his time between his father’s home in the country and his classes in Paris. But its vision of youth comes off as passé as there’s an incongruity between the millennial generation presented and their behaviour (one scene, for example, revolves around prostitutes which doesn’t fit its surrounding context). But there’s still something devastating to <i>Le sel des larmes</i>: its story is still tragic as when Luc finally lies to his father and finally finds love away from him for the first time, it’s the start of his downfall that will lead him to be all alone. There’s still a melancholy and sadness that Garrel does so well and which really suits its title, <i>The salt of tears.</i><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"> This was my first Berlinale Palace premiere and everything about the ceremony made up for the disappointment of the film. There was a projection of the cast and crew walking up the stairs and into the theatre that was projected onto the main screen (and I was sitting in the first row). That it was Garrel made it even better. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"> I saw the new film by Nobuhiro Suwa, whose previous <i>H Story</i> I really liked, even though I found <i>Voices in the Wind</i> to be disappointing. The subject is just so heavy that regardless of its treatment it just comes off as inadequate and clunky. It’s about a young woman’s journey to deal with the grief of her family’s death due to a disastrous tsunami some years earlier. Mourning is the catalyst for her exploring the countryside of Japan and everyone she meets shares their stories that form this tapestry of trauma. There’s a heaviness to <i>Voices in the Wind</i> and an accountability to the losses that burdens the films and creates a repetition of loss. It doesn’t know how to deal with the weight of the country’s history, so it stubbornly gets bogged down in it and its young protagonist Haru (Serena Motola) uncaringly isolates herself from others. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<b><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"> </span></b><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">The new Christian Petzold film <i>Undine </i>features an industrial diver Christoph (Franz Rogowski). It’s not until you see him go underwater that you realize how vastly underused the bottom of a river has been used as a cinematic setting. The depth and endlessness of underwater exploration has almost a science-fiction quality as you get to see parts of the world that for the most part remains largely unseen: the landscapes are strange, the marine life bizarre and even the interplay between light and darkness appears uncanny. There are so many gorgeous shades of blue down there. Underwater there’s a transcendental quality of elusiveness and mystery where rationality seems to float away. This well suits the undine myth, the imaginary water nymph of folklore, that Petzold wants to explore. And that’s without saying anything about Günter, a legendary immense catfish, that causes inexplicable activity to occur.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">Undine (Paula Beer) is an architecture tour guide in Berlin and after a bad break up she finds love with the more child-like Chistoph. At first <i>Undine</i> comes off as lighter than Petzold’s more recent historically fraught films as it’s part romantic-drama and fairy tale. The scenes of Undine’s speeches on the city’s history and architecture are impressive – especially for a tourist in the city – as it explains the urban planning and underlining theory in a sophisticated and funny manner. The chemistry between Undine and Christoph is touching and, along with the Garrel from last night, it’s nice to see loving couples populate the films at the Berlinale. There’s something inspiring about the couple</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; text-indent: 0px;">’s</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; text-indent: 36pt;"> beauty, fragility and tenderness.

I got to see Vidor’s silent film <i>La Bohème</i> (1926) with a piano accompaniment. I hadn’t realized Vidor had been such an accomplished silent film director as at almost two hours his adaptation of the Puccini’s opera still feels modern and even though there’s a theatrical stylization to Lillian Gish and John Gilbert their emotional scenes still resonate without feeling overplayed. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"> The German film was a surprise. I knew nothing about it, but it starts off with a good premise: an acclaimed Berlin thespian (Lars Eidinger) is diagnosed with cancer and his whole life goes up in smoke. I like how it asks what it’s like to give your life to the arts (his <i>Hamlet </i>monologue is striking) and what it means when this is cut short: what truly can you say that you</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">’ve</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"> left behind?</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">What I really liked about <i>My Little Sister</i>, as unlike other German films that I’ve seen (Fassbinder comes to mind, but there’s many others) where folks are usually cruel and are always yelling at each other, set in world that strongly revolve around guilt, here, on the other hand, there’s something very human: it shows its characters to be very light and frivolous, caring and funny. It’s quite the positive vision of humanity. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"> After the mother-and-son (Martin), father-and-son (Garrel), two brothers (Pixar), now here’s a film that focuses on the brother-sister relationship. Family and sibling bonds are reoccurring subjects of many films at the Berlinale.

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"> Since the screenwriter Nicholas St. John left Abel Ferrara after <i>The Funeral </i>(1996) and Ferrara has been making these smaller more experimental films, I’ve found that the dialogue in his films has been lacking: the way people speak lack feeling or nuance and it’s somewhat distracting. Same problem here but <i>Siberia </i>still works. It’s similar to Claire Denis’ <i>High Life </i>or Lars von Trier’s <i>The House that Jack Built </i>as they are all nightmarish works of end of the life visions. There’s a real pleasure to see these directors exorcise their demons and showing their dark visions of humanity at the end of the world. Willem Dafoe is in a deserted cabin in a snow-ridden Siberia where he experiences and relives twisted moments that defy logic and time. He’s haunted by personal memories that give him angst as he’s metaphorically getting closer to the end of his life. It’s full of such bizarre imagery and stories: there’s an anecdote about fishing in Canada, a pregnant woman that gives birth in his cabin, his mother confronting him on their relationship, and that fish! The film is full of regret and sadness, which seems new for Ferrara. <i>Siberia </i>might be one of my favorite films of the competition so far. This is what film festivals are for.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"> The Ross brothers <i>Bloody Nose, Empty Pockets</i> is like that <i>Nathan For You</i> episode “Smokers Allowed”: It’s a hybrid “recreation” of a typical day at a run-down American bar. This one is in outskirts of Las Vegas and it’s “casted” with twenty participants that represent the diversity of Americana. Everyone has a distinct way to expresses themselves and behave and their lives and personas take on a narrative dimension. You can’t create characters as richly dense as this in fiction. <i>Bloody Nose, Empty Pockets </i>has a beautiful visual texture: there’s an old saloon quality to the bar and it</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">’</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">s filmed as if John Ford and John Cassavetes were still around. The Ross’s have this Americana quality, heirs to Henry David Thoreau and Mark Twin, by finding nonconforming language and behaviours, people and a community where there’s something that’s happening. </span><i style="font-family: "times new roman", serif;">Bloody Nose, Empty Pocket</i><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"> felt a lot more like the Ross brothers than their last two films (</span><i style="font-family: "times new roman", serif;">Western, Contemporary Color</i><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">) and closer to their best work (</span><i style="font-family: "times new roman", serif;">River,</i><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"> </span><i style="font-family: "times new roman", serif;">Tchoupitoulas)</i><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"> I’m ending my report of the Berlinale on bittersweet tone. I don’t want to leave. I was so well received here and had a great time: The films were good, met some cool folks and the city was beautiful. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">I’ve only seen one film today: Hong Sang-Soo’s <i>The Woman who Ran</i>. I don’t know how Hong does it, but I’ve loved every one of his films that I’ve seen since discovering him ten years ago. There’s an <i>aperitif quality </i>to Hong’s cinema as it’s light and refreshing. His films have a way to cleanse the palette especially in a film festival context where the films are usually heavy. Hong’s films are ones that you live with, discover at such-and-such festival and on different screens and in different cities. Their stories are usually similar to each other (e.g. an artist struggling with their career, a young woman at a crossroads) but it’s their variations and how Hong earnestly communicates news about himself and how he’s feeling that gives them their lightness and personal quality. With <i>The Woman who Ran</i> it seems like Hong’s doing well, especially in contrast to some of his previous depression films like <i>Haewon</i> or the<i> Hill of Freedom</i>.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<i><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">The Woman who Ran</span></i><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"> starts off with a coop of chickens and some gardening. It starts off with this slow and unusual rhythm and tone, which is really funny too. It’s the story of a young woman (played, as usual, by the excellent Kim Min-hee) who when her husband is out of town for a weekend goes to visit three different friends. There isn’t really too much more than that aside from the different conversations she has with all of them and the description of how they’re doing and how they’ve changed since they’ve last seen each other. But there’s something relaxing and calming about it. There are discussions of vegetarianism, relationship problems and cinema. And after the great dog in <i>Claire’s Camera</i>, <i>The Woman who Ran </i>might feature the best cat appearance in all of Hong’s films (the one particular scene sparked a mass applause at the press screening, something that I’ve never seen before).</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"> Afterwards, I had a relatively lazy day. I didn’t want this trip to come to a close. I went to the press conference for <i>The Woman who Ran</i> (just like I did for the Ferrara and Reichardt), which is something I definitively suggest journalist do more at festivals, especially to see admired directors.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"> And then I had another <i>Cahiers-</i>related interview and then went on a stroll to the German history museum. I finally made my way to see one my instructors for a small get together. It was a great way to end my time at the Berlinale.</span></div>

<i><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">I have often felt that top ten lists tell us as much about the dynamics of distribution - and the ongoing unevenness that characterizes availability, even in the streaming era - as they do about critic consensus or the anomalies of taste. Most of what I have listed here are genuine 2019 releases, yet I could not resist including a few 2018 gems that arrived belatedly for me, but with a bang I want to acknowledge. Likewise, there are a large number of 2019 releases - Matthew Rankin’s <b>The Twentieth Century</b> and Heather Young’s <b>Murmur </b>foremost among them - that, for me at least, will belong to 2020.<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

<i><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">These films weren’t necessarily made last year (though most were), but I saw them all last year, there were so many marvels, too many to cram into this list. Jorge continues to startle with his left field portraits, Heather has invented her own animation stylings, Martina delivers an intimate wordless essay portrait, Keltek was a revelation – <b>Meteors</b> is a stone masterpiece, the most important movie I saw last year. D’Agata’s <b>White Noise</b> is a flawed compilation and summary work, with the most breathtaking sequences of any movie made last year. <b>Not Moldova</b> is Madi’s best movie, a handsome wounded doc, Jafa remains the king of found footage, Richards was the B shooter for Terence Malick, bringing Javier Bardem as a priest into a stunning faux doc, and <b>Flock</b> by Mikhail Zheleznikov confirms that he’s the best experimentalist working in Russia today.<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

<i><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">I wanted to preface my list with a quick note. I am so grateful for the filmmakers and artists responsible for this year’s abundance of inspired cinema. I am grateful to witness a year with so many inspired works of art despite the encroaching hegemony of monolithic production-distribution companies. There were more phenomenal films released this year than I had the opportunity to see. Perhaps the films on my list aren’t “perfect” (whatever that means), but they took risks, they had an undeniably strong point of view. Some of these films are libidinal, some are elegiac, some are furious, and all had something to say. We were blessed this year.<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

<b><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">1.</span></b><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"> <b>Parasite</b> (Bong Joon-ho): <i>An exhilarating and furious indictment of class struggle, <b>Parasite </b>is the masterpiece that South Korea’s Bong Joon-ho has been working toward his entire career. Mixing the social outrage of <b>Snowpiercer</b>, the wild humour of <b>Okja</b>, the heartwarming family drama of <b>The Host</b> and the slow-boil vengeance of <b>Mother</b>, Bong’s latest is a genre-hopping triumph. Focusing on two families – one a clan of con artists living in a cramped basement apartment, the other led by a tech mogul who keeps his wife and two children safely ensconced in a star architect’s mansion – <b>Parasite </b>expertly plays with tension and expectations. At first, it appears that Bong has created a sharp comedy, especially when he digs into the details of how one family becomes so familiar with the other. But then both families’ lives become upended in the most peculiar of ways, leading to a final hour that is sharp enough to draw blood.</i><o:p></o:p></span></div>

Abiding by his self-imposed rule that every fifth movie he makes is allowed to be good, Adam Sandler stars as Howard Ratner, a permanently stressed-out Manhattan jeweler. As the film opens, Howard is in deep debt to the Jewish mob, on the outs with both his wife and mistress, negotiating with real-life rappers and NBA stars and hustling for one last score. The Safdie brothers start big and fast and dirty and do not stop to take a breath for one single filthy moment.

And it is the film that the industry and audiences needed to spend so much of the year wringing its hands over.

<b><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">4. Portrait de la jeune fille en feu</span></b><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"> (Céline Sciamma): <i>Including Céline Sciamma’s drama in a 2019 list is a slight cheat: the film will only screen on a handful of New York and L.A. screens this month before it gets a proper release in February 2020. But the film - passionate, elegant, and devastatingly romantic - is such a triumph that it can sustain at least 24 months of cultural conversation. In 18th-century Brittany, artist Marianne (Noémie Merlant) is commissioned to paint the portrait of an Italian noblewoman’s reclusive daughter, Heloise (Adèle Haenel, from Sciamma’s <b>Water Lilies</b>). Soon enough, the pair disarm each other, and form a bond intimate and profound. Sharply subverting the male gaze at every turn, Sciamma has created an unforgettable treatise on thwarted desire.<o:p></o:p></i></span></div>

This is not a movie that lets life simply play out as it is or was – it is instead a collection of memories, some sharp as shards but others smoothed down.

Part of the streaming giant’s success is due to its deep pockets, leveraged by huge amounts of debt. But another reason is its commitment to producing movies that other studios have forgotten about: human dramas that place character before franchise potential. <b>Marriage Story</b> is the just that kind of film, wisely leveraging its star power (Adam Driver, Scarlett Johansson) to tell a story few in Hollywood would have financed today. By the time the film cycles through the starts and stops of a divorce, Baumbach will have you cycling through all manner of convulsions. This is hilarious, heartbreaking cinema – a work that will make you burst out laughing one moment, and leave you tearing your hair out the next.<o:p></o:p></i></span></div>

In Dakar, the young Ada (Mame Bineta Sane) longs to be with construction worker Souleiman (Traore), but she has been promised to another, and he sees no future in Senegal. But after Souleiman leaves the country for some vaguely brighter prospects, tragedy strikes on the Atlantic Ocean. Diop takes some highly unusual detours, both narratively and thematically, but there is a confidence in her vision that is startling. The intense pleasure of <b>Atlantics</b> is not in the A-to-B storytelling, but in the poignant and painful emotions its filmmaking conjures. And in the realization that this is just the first scream of an intensely curious and essential cinematic voice.<o:p></o:p></i></span></div>

And deservedly so – just because a film takes issue with a city’s racial erasure does not mean it’s immune to that same discussion. But the anticipated debate didn’t really arrive, perhaps because Talbot’s work was released too early in the year and has now been overshadowed by a similar discussion over <b>Waves</b>, which is being given a heftier awards push by A24, which produced both films. Whatever the case, <b>The Last Black Man in San Francisco</b> is an essential work to experience, and a difficult one to shake. With its deadpan humour, wild visuals, and career-making performance from Jimmie Fails, who collaborated with Talbot on the screenplay, the film marks an irrepressibly original and exciting cinematic vision - one that feels as fresh as it does problematic.</i><o:p></o:p></span></div>

The film opens in Changchun, China, where family matriarch Nai Nai (Shuzhen Zhao) is awaiting test results at a local hospital. Unbeknownst to her, the elderly woman has cancer and is likely to die in a few months. But in an effort to avoid upsetting Nai Nai, her sister Little Nai Nai (Lu Hong) hides the diagnosis – a strategy that the film repeatedly informs us is common practice in China – and the rest of her globally scattered brood make their way back to Changchun for one last visit. Wang’s eye for small-yet-large details is amplified tenfold by the performances she wrings out of her cast, including a stellar lead turn by Awkwafina.<o:p></o:p></i></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">***</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"><b><u>Eric Bizzarri</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"><b>- Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood</b> (Quentin Tarantino): <i>Tarantino is a master at work, as evident in a film that combines fantastic set pieces, killer performances and strong cinematographic work. A journey in the life of these characters, as they navigate through the trials and tribulations of old Hollywood. </i> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"><b>- Uncut Gems </b>(Josh and Benny Safdie): <i>A wild ride, exploring the truths of humanity, love and hustling. It's a surprising turn for Adam Sandler, who is entertaining and stellar throughout.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"><b>- Marriage Story</b> (Noah Baumbach): <i><b>Marriage Story</b> has some of the best performances of the year, coupled with uncomfortable writing (in the best way) and visuals that allow the piece to become claustrophobic when it needs to be. Driver and Johansson are consistently changing here. They manifest such heartbreaking but also enlightening performances that remind us of the good and bad in relationships. As a whole, the film presents the idea that you can never completely destroy the love you have for someone that you've shared a strong intimacy with. Love, in the sense of adoration and affection. There is always something to be learned, though. The last shot, especially, is quite affecting and will stay with you. </i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"><b>- Parasite </b>(Bong Joon-ho): <i><b>Parasite</b> roars from its impressive simplicity. Production Design is fantastic here, as director Bong Joon-ho blends a mix of terrific settings that accentuate his wide array of genres at play, all blended together to make for full-bodied viewing. Horror, comedy, romance. It's all there.</i> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"><b>- Avengers: Endgame</b> (Joe and Anthony Russo): <i>What a treat. A satisfying conclusion to 11 years worth of films in the MCU and one that will have die hard fans especially, at the edge of their seats. A mega spectacle interested in exploring failure and how it can feel to affect those you care about. A solid piece of filmmaking at its core. A film with intentions of providing fan service, while also allowing audiences to reflect on themes of loss, sacrifice and failing. We don't expect heroes to fail, but <b>Endgame</b> breaks that barrier of perfection, reminding us to allow failure to pass us, granting us the opportunity to learn and grow from our mistakes. </i> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"><b>- Honey Boy</b> (Alma Har'el): <i><b>Honey Boy</b> is an exploration of truth, tragedy and comedy. Shia LaBeouf spills his heart into what is one of the most groundbreaking, personal entries to come out of this medium. This is what filmmaking is - an admission into a filmmaker's mind. It's an un-missable cathartic experience. </i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"><b>- Waves</b> (Trey Edward Shults): <i><b>Waves</b> is one of the best films I’ve seen this year. Incredible performances across the board. Tight editing. A beautiful cinematographic palette. It’s a conversation of love across generations - teaching us that the consequences of our actions truly have ripple effects.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"><b>- Joker </b>(Todd Phillips): <i><b>Joker</b> is a strong showcase for Joaquin Phoenix with beautiful, striking images and a chaotic score, achieving an incredible, irritable piece. The film is built on trauma, exploring the current political climate through a character we believe we knew before. Anyone that has gone through something traumatic will feel, in this movie. The amount of discourse surrounding this film has become rather interesting. I definitely think the negative feedback towards it stems from people’s discomfort with the truths the movie is showing. <b>Joker</b> is created very tastefully and carefully, with a lot of nuance.</i> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"><b>- Anne at 13,000 ft.</b> (Kazik Radwanski): <i><b>Anne at 13, 000 ft.</b> is a huge step forward for director Kazik Radwanski, marking a strong entry in his own filmography, while also exploring the lengths of which Canadian Cinema can go. It's a full bodied film, exploring the uncomfortable truths, insecurities and joys of Deragh Campbell's character, whom delivers an exceptional performance here. The visual language is consistent in its claustrophobia, presenting each frame in tight close-ups, as we slowly uncover all of the mini details and awkward moments in character interactions and subtle shifts in conflict. The story is timely and opens relevant discussions to be had about mental health, and coming to the aid of those we know, or may not know, who are in need. Radwanski refuses to present antagonists solely as antagonists, but rather those who could be suffering as well, creating a full-bodied piece. </i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"><b>- Booksmart</b> (Olivia Wilde): <i>Hilarious. <b>Booksmart</b> is deeply rooted in its central characters played so affectionately by Beanie Feldstein and Kaitlyn Dever. <b>Booksmart </b>is what audiences have been waiting for - a film with, at times similar antics, yet a coming of age story finally told from a female perspective that invites us into new territory while re-invigorating what we already love from the coming-of-age genre.</i></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">A weekend in Montreal for RIDM is a real cinephile pleasure. The city’s documentary festival leans more towards the avant-garde so, unlike more pedestrian doc fests, they tend to spotlight auteurs of the film fest circuit that are exploring new cinematic territories in interesting ways. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqeq2J2QI8NUySrUK_khUiW6gH5HRcgAXKc72ibIuLXE8GbnktkEm80ThE66-2-GiGUprvFfJsTgm_mFYN_pAARaj3QqtNRIuKiHGMOAHYBJop50jmHvLytIA9vf6MQWFoBSdbiprMgzA/s1600/EKAQKr6XUAAK58b.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="270" data-original-width="360" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqeq2J2QI8NUySrUK_khUiW6gH5HRcgAXKc72ibIuLXE8GbnktkEm80ThE66-2-GiGUprvFfJsTgm_mFYN_pAARaj3QqtNRIuKiHGMOAHYBJop50jmHvLytIA9vf6MQWFoBSdbiprMgzA/s320/EKAQKr6XUAAK58b.jpg" width="320" /></a><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">I specifically went for their Luc Moullet retrospective. In the nine years that I’ve lived in Toronto I don’t think any Moullet films have ever screened theatrically. This speaks to the worth of RIDM and the Cinémathèque Québécoise that they would not only present a retrospective but also invite Moullet to give a masterclass and introduce his films. The director is already in his eighties so this will probably be his last trip abroad. And RIDM really made an event out of the retrospective by getting new digitisations of many of his films, organizing them into thematic programs and having lengthy discussions with Moullet at every opportunity.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">The masterclass was really good. Its moderator Bruno Dequen split the two-hour discussion between his early years at <i>Cahiers du Cinéma </i>and his filmmaking. Being already familiar with Moullet, I can say that I was really impressed with the territory that was covered. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">Moullet shared some interesting anecdotes about his cinephile origins: At the age of ten, around the time of the fiftieth anniversary of cinema in Paris, Moullet discovered classics like Dreyer’s <i>Day of Wrath</i>. Later he would be able to see new films before others since at the time cinema owners, they wouldn’t actually go see the movies that they would book, so they would give their tickets to their staff, which Moullet would inevitably befriend and accompany.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">Moullet had interesting stories from when he joined <i>Cahiers </i>in 1956: Their articles had to be written on typewriters in which the movie titles had to be underlined (which were then converted to italics during printing) and couldn’t be submitted on two-sided paper (<i>la règle du recto-verso</i>). Jacques Rivette was the leader and François Truffaut was his right-hand man. The <i>À bout de souffle </i>producer Georges de Beauregard was so inspired by Jean-Luc Godard after their success that he produced Moullet on his recommendation.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">Then the conversation turned towards his films that included some interesting observations about his documentaries: Just like how Moullet’s earlier film reviews explored little known subjects in an encyclopedic and ironic fashion, this would also be a trait that he would bring to his documentary practice. Moullet describes his own presence in his films as a heightened exaggeration of his own quirky characteristics. Over the years, he has to worked with a lot with French television broadcasters, especially Canal Plus, as they were the ones who most frequently funded his projects.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">Of Moullet’s fortyish films, which date as far back as 1960, he has only made around ten full-length features, some fiction but many documentaries, while most of the others are either shorts or medium lengths. Moullet’s oeuvre is discreet. I wouldn’t necessarily say that it’s mainstream, but I wouldn’t say its esoteric either. Having seen some of his TV work back-to-back I would probably put forward that he’s the closest thing to a French Jerry Seinfeld. The films are usually organized around a comedic bit (just like Jerry’s concluding stand-up sketches) that takes something very mundane and specific and then analyzes it to the point of the nonsensical. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">While at RIDM I got to see eight of Moullet’s films. I’ll rank them in order of how much I liked them and how much they made me laugh (how else should you judge comedies?): In <i>La cabale des oursins</i> he explores mountains made from abandoned coal mine detritus as if they were ideal tourist destinations. In <i>Foix</i> he fines the most<i> </i>decrepit town in all of France and a narrator in a dead-pan and ironic voice-over then speaks to its “qualities”. In <i>Imphy, capitale de la France</i>, along with his wife Antonietta Pizzorno, they search the countryside for an anonymous town to relocate the nation’s capital. <i>Barres </i>is about sneaking past the metro fares in Paris. In <i>Essai d’ouverture</i> Moullet struggles to open a Coke bottle. In <i>Toujours plus </i>he explores the bourgeoning and excessive new supermarket culture. And <i>Le ventre de l’Amérique</i>, the closest thing I saw of his there to a more traditional documentary, he explores<i> </i>small-town Iowa. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">They all made for really interesting programs. I tended to prefer the more eccentric and witty documentaries. And there was a Laurel and Hardy aspect to them where the laughs came from the stubbornness and childish conflict of two exaggerated and opposing personalities. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">As I already mentioned, it was just great seeing these in a cinema and with Moullet there to talk about them. I think it was an experience of a lifetime.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">I had already seen <i>Une aventure de Billy le Kid</i>, which isn’t necessarily one of my favorites (I don’t think Jean-Pierre Léaud is that funny in it) and it still isn’t, but re-watching I couldn’t help but notice how the film nicely illustrates Moullet’s ideas on Samuel Fuller: that his westerns aren’t about <i>reflection</i> but about <i>action</i> and how this instinctive quality, which is distinctively American, comes out through his chase scenes. You can see a bit of this in <i>Une aventure de Billy le Kid </i>through all of the Léaud scenes where he’s struggling to make his way through the desert. As well, the film’s particular landscape of the French mountainous countryside is a reoccurring geography in all of Moullet’s work from <i>Terres noire </i>in 1961 to his most recent documentaries. Moullet makes work that only resembles himself: of curious ecosystems, either directly in cities or in the middle of nowhere, that really benefit from a close inspection to best reveal their charm, edges and life.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">At RIDM I also got to see Frank Beauvais’ <i>Ne croyez surtour pas que je hurle </i>and a documentary on the modern dancer Merce Cunningham. The Beauvais film was interesting. It consists of him reading in voice-over his diary-like observations of living in the countryside for seven years where he experienced a break-up, the death of his father, and a frustration with French society as he retreated more and more towards living in isolation. While the visuals were taken from short clips from hundreds of different films to illustrate the mood or idea of what he’s talking about. It’s quite an original idea. And the film feels therapeutic: You hear Beauvais talks about his depression all while you see the art that he was able to create through it. And there’s something healthy and positive about its ending where you hear about how he’s finally able to re-find a community and he returns to Paris. I was surprised by <i>Cunningham</i>. It was nice tribute to mid-century New York modernism – Cunningham regularly collaborated with such artists like Robert Rauschenberg, John Cage and Andy Warhol – and the many gestures and new human movements that he created. Not that I know anything about modern dance, but there was something stunning about the 3D scenes of the contemporary dancers putting on their shows. It</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; text-indent: 36pt;">’</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; text-indent: 36pt;">s something like Yvonne Rainer meets Wim Wenders’ </span><i style="font-family: "times new roman", serif; text-indent: 36pt;">Pina</i><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; text-indent: 36pt;">. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">I can’t really speak to the other films that played at RIDM since I didn’t see them but there was good word-of-mouth buzz for the prize-winning films (except one that Denis Côté really didn’t like; and whose <i>Wilcox </i>will be screening in Toronto in January). And the evening parties at the cinémathèque, where I got to see some friends and other cinephiles, were fun. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">But when in Montreal it’s well worth checking out what’s playing at the other cinemas. Their cineplexes screen films that rarely get distribution outside of Quebec. In Montreal you can see more Québécois, French and European films in general. At the Cineplex Quartier Latin, I got to see Nicolas Pariser’s <i>Alice et le Maire</i>, which stars Anaïs Demoustier as a new consultant to the mayor of Lyon (Fabrice Luchini). It has some interesting things to say about a certain careerism and dullness that has affected their political class and what happens when the desire for inspiration strikes. There was something distinct about it in terms of recent French comedies and I liked how it told its story and treated its characters. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">And then I finally got to discover Cinéma Moderrne, which is further north on St. Laurent, to check out <i>Marriage Story</i>. Not as good as Baumbach’s <i>The Meyerowitz Stories</i>, I would still say it’s worth seeing, even though it has a few frustrating Netflix-tropes (its images are too pristine, accepts a mediocre naturalism, too theatrical), for the performances Adam Driver and Scarlett Johansson give. Like in all of Baumbach’s films there’s something especially affecting about the characters’ vulnerability and desperateness. And it asks some interesting questions: How do you really see your partner once habits takeover in long-term relationships? What’s listening and communicating when you’re just seen as an extension of your husband? How come expectations, in both relationships and in society, are different for women?

Instead of Bergman now we get Baumbach. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">Anyways here’s a short report on my weekend trip to Montreal. Still my favorite city in the country for moviegoing: I go there to spend time with films, as one would travel to spend time with friends. It’s so easy to see up to three movies in a day there and get a microcosm of the diversity of cinema in general. That’s why the city’s film culture is so great. The experiences and the discourse are far richer and kinder than the hermetic yelling that usually takes place on social media. What works so well in Montreal is that things are smaller, therefore nimbler and more efficient, you can do more. It becomes more about the people who are there and their experiences with the films and each other. There’s less institutional mediation, so there’s less interval between watching films and life. Moviegoing just feels more natural, like a way of living.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">I was sitting with a cinematographer David Humphreys in a café one day. March 28<sup>th</sup>, 2017 to be exact. Dave had just finished a job and was looking for something to do with his free summer. I told him he should make a feature film if he had the time, and he suggested we make one together. I asked, “How many people do we need?” <span style="color: #222222;">Dave replied,</span> “Just me.” And then I said, “But don’t we need a sound guy?” And then Dave corrected himself, “Right. Me and a sound guy.”<span style="color: #222222;"> </span>So the plan was hatched. The goal was to shoot an 80-minute feature film that summer – and we know how short Toronto summers can be… I would write and direct, Dave would shoot and edit the film. If we were to start, we would finish. I repeated to Dave, “If we were going to start it, we would finish it.<b> </b><i>No excuses.”</i><b></b><span style="color: #222222;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">The idea came out of a practical necessity. What could we make that wouldn’t be technically challenging but emotionally engaging and interesting? Our resources were limited, we didn’t have tons of equipment, locations, budget and all the other baggage that usually comes with making a feature film. As a resident of High Park, I figured what would be convenient but interesting would be using High Park as the main location along with my apartment and the surrounding neighbourhood. From there, my brain started to come up with ideas. I came down to a man dating three women at the same time. What could I do with that? Then after a random conversation with my real-life friend Florrie, I decided to use her name and change the main character to a woman who was dating three men. The question then became: why is Florrie dating three men? And from here we follow our main character played by the inimitable Lee Lawson.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">Working with Lee Lawson was akin to having the United States Military in your back pocket. Need a helicopter? Check. Need an Atom Bomb? Check. Need a Ninja? Check. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">

I was amazed everyday how Lee just wouldn't quit on a take, a scene, an idea, anything. She made no excuses ever! When scenes didn't work, she helped me rework them, and she didn't flinch when I threw new scenes at her and we shot them one hour later! Insane. We put her though the ringer for 21 days of shooting and she didn't gain one wrinkle. By the way, did I mention Lee can swim?<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">We set out a hopeful schedule. I would write the script in April, organize the production of the film in May and shoot the film in June. Dave would start editing in July while I relaxed in Italy. Needless to say, it did not go that smoothly. With just a paltry three-man crew – the cinematographer, sound man, and myself as the writer and director – and a marvellous cast of actors we shoved off together into the crazy world of independent film. Oh and I need to mention the millions of favours from loved ones and complete strangers too! Everything and anything that could help was essential in getting it done. Along the way we dodged bad weather, tight schedules, fading sun, fat police officers and some damn angry squirrels. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">But after all was said and done, we birthed a feature film, our first baby girl, <i>Florrie</i>.<span style="color: #222222;"> </span>No excuses.<span style="color: #222222;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">Since the film has been finished it’s been an interesting ride. The first screening was at a film festival in Las Vegas for films produced under $250 000 (That’s me!), I didn’t get a chance to attend as our Cast/Crew/Family/Friends screening was the next night at my alma mater, University of Toronto. That was a real treat. Having sat there for all those classes, twenty-years later now I’m running the show! If even for just a night... A rush I’ll never forget. We screened at another festival in Niagara Falls, USA. I was able to drive down, flash my passport at the border, and tell them I was participating in a film festival. Boo-yah!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">The Social Committee in my condo building (The second major location of the film) heard about <i>Florrie</i> and offered to screen it for the residents of the building. The cheese and wine flowed that day my friends. The residents were thrilled that their home was used for a feature film. Some have said their property values went up 5 percent after that night. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">An exciting soup is brewing. The Canadian film channel Hollywood Suite has seen <i>Florrie</i> and has offered a sale to our little film. It’s an exciting opportunity and the paperwork has started and I’m as giddy as a boy can be. <span style="color: #222222;">And I'm also working on gathering funding for a narrative feature film, <i>Between Friends</i>, a drama about an out of work photographer who witnesses his best friend's wife cheating, and how he struggles on whether to tell his friend or not. And I am also working on finishing a script entitled <i>Romulus</i>, which is a werewolf story set in Rome. I can’t wait to get started!</span></span></div>

The productivity, perhaps excluding Denis Côté, is unheard of in this country. And what’s perhaps even more surprising is the artistic ambition and diversity of the films. There’s a constant between Émond’s four features: the emotional journey of young women protagonist. A characteristic that’s very much in vogue these days but where others deal with the subject in a very naturalistic manner, Émond constantly surprises by the style and imagination that she bring to her treatment. Style, imagination and emotions, these are Émond’s best traits. And she’s so productive too! If some of the best newer Canadian directors always struggle to make work: where the transition from shorts to features can take years (if ever) and the time span between can also linger, the lightness and gracefulness of Émond is a sign how the (québécois) system can work.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "uictfonttextstylebody"; font-size: 17px;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "uictfonttextstylebody"; font-size: 17px;"><i>Jeune Juliette</i> tells the story of a young high-schooler, whose life isn’t really that bad; she struggles with body issues and not having too many friends. But it’s her kindness, fun, sensitivity and contradictions that makes her so interesting. She surrounds herself with others who are just as offbeat as her, but what’s nice about her journey is how after some conflict and growing she finds herself at the center of the end of the year high school party. If the trailer of <i>Jeune Juliette </i>sells it as a feminine and québécois version of <i>Superbad</i> (which it is partly), it’s actually much more closer to <i>Eighth Grade</i>, <i>Booksmart</i> and <i>Trinkets</i>. It’s just that the feminine adolescent experience has more doubt and anxiety, which is a nice counter-balance and makes the moments of joy even richer.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "uictfonttextstylebody"; font-size: 17px;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "uictfonttextstylebody"; font-size: 17px;">If there’s always been suggestions that Émond’s films are somewhat autobiographical, the vintage high school portrait of her at the close of the film and its resemblance to the star of <i>Jeune Juliette</i> only heightens this impression.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "uictfonttextstylebody"; font-size: 17px;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "uictfonttextstylebody"; font-size: 17px;">It’s been a good year so far for québécois cinema: <i>Répertoire des villes disparues, Genèse </i>and now <i>Jeune Juliette</i>. (And films in general with <i>Synonymes</i> and<i> The Souvenir</i>). I would probably pick Émond’s film as my favorite. It feels good to see a director putting forward their best work and remaining positive. My hypothesis: the future of québécois cinema belongs to Anne Émond.</span>David D.http://www.blogger.com/profile/14646599764019358808noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3552793787451945445.post-15415045639566570982019-07-26T13:28:00.005-05:002019-10-31T13:13:23.133-05:00The Spirit of Toronto<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">In a <i>Variety </i>article on Atom Egoyan’s <i>Guest of Honour </i>they describe it as being about the relationship, “between a father and his 20-something year old daughter who wants to remain in jail for a sexual assault she knows she’s been wrongfully indicted for.” My first question: Who are these people? Can someone please explain to me what twenty-year old women would want to remain incarcerated for a sexual assault crime that she didn’t commit? These aren’t real people. People don’t act and behave as Egoyan thinks they do. He’s up in his ivory tower repeating his bizarre phantasms that have nothing to do with reality. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

Where is the city being represented? There’s Metro Morning with Matt Galloway who does an amazing job at showcasing the enthusiasm and protest, diversity and culture that Toronto has to offer. But that’s radio. Where are the features, shorts and shows that have an ounce of the quality that Galloway puts forward every morning? </span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">They’re there. But they’re in the nooks and crannies of the city – rarely ever featured prominently.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">My next question: Does Canadian cinema even exist? The government spends a lot of money on it, so you can at least say that. Do its films spark the imagination of the collective? Their distribution is so infrequent and attendance poor, that I doubt it. Afterwards are these films properly released for home viewing and archived? Rarely. </span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">I don’t want to sound bitter – because I’m interested in the health of Canadian cinema, and I think everyone knows this and wants it to improve – but there needs to be more enthusiasm, attention and help on a grass-root level.</span></div>

<a href="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/e/e4/Firecrackers_poster.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="379" data-original-width="256" height="320" src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/e/e4/Firecrackers_poster.jpg" width="216" /></a><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">It’s a good time for young Toronto filmmakers. They’re making interesting work and it’s getting nicely distributed within the city. At Yonge and Dundas – of all places! – you can go out and see Jasmin Mozaffari’s <i>Firecrackers </i>and Natty Zavitz’s <i>Acquainted</i>, both of which I highly recommend. This feels new and exciting. The award-winning <i>Firecrackers </i>has such an intense energy: It’s the story of two young women (the incredible Michaela Kurimsky and Karena Evans) trying to leave their dead-end, small town lives to find something better in the big city. Think <i>The Florida Project </i>in rural Ontario. It’s an impressive debut feature for the energy of its actresses as they stop at nothing to get out of there, having to fight off some pretty god-awful men. There’s an adrenaline to <i>Firecrackers </i>as it’s always on the go, always scrappy. It feels like a really <i>raw</i> film (in the best sense of the term): as if it’s always on the brink of sweat, blood and tears.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<a href="https://m.media-amazon.com/images/M/MV5BYTRmNzZlM2EtN2JlNy00Y2QwLWIyNzctYTc5NmEyMWM1NjBkXkEyXkFqcGdeQXVyMTQwMzUwNTI@._V1_SY1000_CR0,0,647,1000_AL_.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="800" data-original-width="518" height="320" src="https://m.media-amazon.com/images/M/MV5BYTRmNzZlM2EtN2JlNy00Y2QwLWIyNzctYTc5NmEyMWM1NjBkXkEyXkFqcGdeQXVyMTQwMzUwNTI@._V1_SY1000_CR0,0,647,1000_AL_.jpg" width="207" /></a><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">If you’re looking for a film that’s explicitly set in Toronto (instead of pathetically substituting it for somewhere else) you need to see <i>Acquainted</i>. I think it <i></i>deserves the highest of praise as I don’t think the city has ever looked so good: Think of a <i>Toronto Now </i>feature but with the most beautiful actors and actresses. Its <i></i>story is of two relationships in crisis as three young adults need to figure out how to live and who to love. It’s a real step-up for Zavitz after his micro-budget first-feature <i>Edging</i>. <i></i>He’s a real <i>actor’s director</i> as, along with having such an impressive cast – Giacomo Gianniotti, Laysla De Oliveira and Rachel Skarsten –, the performances are all amazing. They express a surprising amount of depth just by their expressions, gestures and non-verbal scenes alone. But I think one of <i>Acquainted</i>’s real stars is its cinematographer Ian Macmillan who pulls off some astounding cinematography, which also resonates thematically with its story: The exhilaration of a first date is matched by a fifteen-minute tracking shot through Trinity Bellwoods, a melancholy confession is filmed entirely in shadows, and a reserved sexual encounter is filmed trough a doorway. It</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman", serif; text-indent: 36pt;">’</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman", serif; text-indent: 36pt;">s pretty incredible.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"> These two films are just the most recent examples of what’s exciting about Canadian cinema that is going on in the city, which I think is now starting to pay more attention to emerging directors and Canadian culture in film and television more broadly. It’s easy to be dismissive or jaded, but I actually think that these are positive signs. There needs to be people to believe in Canadian cinema for it to exist: Mozaffari and Zavits can be seen to be leading the way.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Though it’s an elusive allusion, it’s an important instance of Godard acknowledging the passing of his friend in 2016 in his own work (aside from a brief <a href="http://www.cinematheque.fr/article/793.html">note</a> to the Cinémathèque). It’s a tender gesture – one of sorrow and pride – as it’s a sign of lack due to regret and the missing of a friend and an act of solidarity to what they experienced together and their long history. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">Speaking to Alain Bergala, Godard remembered highly the esteem he held for Rivette:<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: center;">
<i><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">“Rivette, lui, représentait une sorte de terrorisme cinématographique… J’aimais beaucoup un film et si Rivette disait ‘c’est de la connerie’ je disais comme lui. Il y avait un côté stalinien dans ces rapports-là. Avec Rivette, c’était comme s’il avait détenu la vérité cinématographique, différente de celle des autres, et pendant un temps j’ai accepté ça.”<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6DgJ97_OtMI8Ky0iy9ExWAPfVGd5fdRGLQJGG6vLPAzAnmo9r7W1pdMrdKl0hU2lkXE6TCDx7dco_ZOdS4QFA1qlXejuTclvsx4HkJNYy6YOlKsUoT7IP98Y4uDeq975RLs6Q5TLabgI/s1600/IMG_8793.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6DgJ97_OtMI8Ky0iy9ExWAPfVGd5fdRGLQJGG6vLPAzAnmo9r7W1pdMrdKl0hU2lkXE6TCDx7dco_ZOdS4QFA1qlXejuTclvsx4HkJNYy6YOlKsUoT7IP98Y4uDeq975RLs6Q5TLabgI/s320/IMG_8793.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">This form of memorialization is part of a longer tradition for Godard of eulogizing his <i>nouvelle vague </i>peers who he had been friends with in the fifties: both in an enigmatic fashion, he would express his conflicting feelings towards François Truffaut in a special <i>Cahiers </i>issue “Le roman de François Truffaut” <i></i>and he would make a short video-essay for <a href="https://youtu.be/jNrJ_jbT8WA">Éric Rohmer</a>. Now Rivette has been assumed.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">The idea of the <i>complot </i>– <i>conspiracy </i>– is strongly present in Rivette’s film and his mysterious aura. There’s the Balzacian secret society in <i>Out 1 </i>(1971). There’s the elusiveness to <i>Céline et Julie Vont en Bateau </i>(1974) and <i>Le Pont du Nord </i>(1981), which don’t follow standard dramatic arches and conclusive resolutions. Rivette does something different and his private persona and his reticence for interviews and reluctance to re-publish his writing has only heightened his mystery. All of this recalls how Bulle Ogier, who had worked with Rivette on numerous films, speaks of him in the documentary <i>Le veilleur</i>,<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: center;">
<i><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">“It’s hard to talk about Jacques Rivette because he’s so secret that if you say something about him or about his films or the way he works or lives, you feel terribly indiscreet, impolite… It would be in bad taste. A betrayal almost.”<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">Because he was so private, the publishing after his death of an anthology of his writing (and the same thing could be said about the opening up of the Chris Marker archives) seems somewhat indiscreet as it provides such an easy access point to his film criticism that he wished to remain obscure, even though there are some privileges of having them all in one place. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">The French publisher post-éditions, under the editorship of Miguel Armas and Luc Chessel, has recently published <i>Jacques Rivette: Textes Critiques </i>where you can find for the first time in one book ‘all’ of Rivette’s published film writing from his first essays in <i>Bulletin du ciné-club du Quartier latin </i>and <i>Gazette du cinéma </i>to the majority of it from <i>Cahiers du Cinéma </i>and <i>Arts</i>. There are long reviews to short capsules, top ten lists to unpublished writing; a long group essay “Montage” with Jean Narboni and Sylvie Pierre (1969) and “Le Secret et la Loi” by Hélène Frappat (1999). In terms of what it doesn’t have, you can’t find many of his interviews or the plethora of material that still makes his archive at the Cinémathèque française such a treasure trove (though even this, I suspect, is still lacking material).</span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">What can be gleaned now from being able to go over the entirety of Rivette’s writing all in one place? First off: the pleasure of being around such a legendary cinephile, film critic and filmmaker. It needs to be said: Serge Daney was right about Rivette and Rivette was right about the films that he wrote about. For anyone who grew up with the <i>Cahiers politique des auteurs </i>and watched the films of Hitchcock and Hawks through their eyes there’s a real pleasure of re-reading and discovering some of Rivette’s original arguments and hyperbole.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">On Howard Hawks: <i>“L’évidence est la marque du génie de Hawks; Monkey Business est un film génial et s’impose à l’esprit par l’évidence” </i>(“Génie de Howard Hawks”).<i></i><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">On Alfred Hitchcock: <i>“Les films d’Hitchcock relèvent du secret professionnel… seul le metteur en scène, j’entends celui qui s’est posé les vrais poblèmes de son art, peut en pressentir la beauté” </i>(“L’art de la fugue”).<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">On Roberto Rossellini: <i>“S’il est un cinéma modern, le voilà” </i>(“Lettre sur Rossellini”).<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">On Josef von Sternberg: <i>“Anatahan, couronnement logique de l’oeuvre de Sternberg, est également le meilleur film japonais.”</i><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"> But beneath these claims Rivette is situating himself within a larger context of French film theory and criticism. There are reoccurring concepts that are interspersed throughout his writing such as realism, mise-en-scène, genius, liberty and modernity. There’s an evolution to his thought from participating in debates around <i>cinégénie</i> along the lines of Louis Delluc and Jean Epstein; to debates around realism along the lines of André Bazin and Maurice Schérer (Rohmer); and finally, to debates around structuralism along the lines of Roland Barthes and Claude Lévi-Strauss. All of the while implementing his own point of view. Rivette’s writing has the pointedness and authority of defining the films and filmmakers of his era. His film analyses are able to explain how these directors gives expression to an idea through their representation of the world. He would write on some of the most important filmmakers, dictating the <i>Cahiers </i>line as it was being conceived. I would highly suggest reading his pieces on <i>Monsieur Verdoux</i>, <i>Under Capricorn </i>and <i>Les quatre cents coups.</i><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">Rivette’s first essay “Nous ne sommes plus innocents” (1950) is interesting for laying down many of his key theories that he would remain loyal to over time. In particular how through its focus on humans and their gestures there can be an existential position on the world that comes across. This is the <i>réel </i>and <i>présence </i>of a film, the focus on bodies and gestures, as opposed to conventional storytelling which is seen as superficial and formulaic. Rivettte described realism as:<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: center;">
<i><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">“Inscrire simplement sur film les manifestations, le mode de vie et d’être, le comportement du petit cosmos individual… l’univers du créateur n’est que la manifestation, l’efflorescence concrète de son regard et de son mode d’apparaître.”</span></i><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">This idea, with some variation and adapting to specific refence points, reappears numerous times throughout his essays. For example, Rivette wrote on Jean Renoir’s use of improvisation,<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: center;">
<i><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">“L’esprit d’improvisation anime en effet son oeuvre entière; mais se refuser à prévoir, filmer chaque plan suivant les seules nécessités de l’instant, ne sont pour lui qu’un moyen, pour appréhender le concret plus directement, sans intermédiaire, et dans toute sa spontanéité.”</span></i><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"> Though abstract, these excerpt from Rivette’s earliest texts read like a manifesto of what he would champion the most and bring to his own filmmaking practice: intimate behaviours of individuals, capturing the way of life of beings, an improvisational spirit, refusing preconceptions and the necessity of the instant in all of its spontaneity.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">There’s an attempt in “Le Secret et la Loi” for Rivette to directly explain some of his ideas and what they mean for him. He presents his theory of film rather succinctly: narrative films circulate around laws and secrets. For Rivette <i>la loi </i>is,<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: center;">
<i><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">“c’est-à-dire quelque chose qui est construit par la raison pour donner à l’homme ce qui va lui permettre de constituer, de prolonger, de faire survivre son humanité, c’est-à-dire, et là je continue à essayer de citer Legendre, ce qui va lui permettre de faire exister tant le sujet que la fiction, deux termes qu’il met sur le même plan.”<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: center;">

<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: center;">
<i><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">“Mais secret au sens le plus fundamental: pour continuer à citer Paulhan qui dit qu’il ne faut jamais oublier que le propre du mystère est d’être mystérieux, ce secret-là est un secret de l’être, un secret que ne connaît pas le cinéaste, c’est un secret que le cinéaste porte sans le savoir, c’est le secret de choses très personnelles, très existentielles, très suggestives, et que le film se trouve porter: au-delà de ce que voulait consciemment le cinéaste, il dit des choses sur lui, et donc, à travers lui, sur l’humanité, choses qu’il n’avait pas la moindre intention de dire.”</span></i><br />

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"> These points offer a way to re-read the anthology and Rivette’s body of work. He’s speaking about the symbolic and the super-ego to use Lacan’s terms. What social factors motivate behaviour in contrast to a subject’s most intimate and hidden desires. For the modern filmmakers that Rivette wrote about they were able to accomplish this. But what’s so great is that Rivette’s theory doesn’t leave you with anything tangible. This emphasis on the relation between both terms relies on the <i>imposition </i>of a point of view while simultaneously <i>eluding mastery</i>. It only leaves more questions unanswered, creates more thought and allows more mysteries to propagate. There are still new inquiries to be had. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

(Winter 2019 Season)<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">The idea behind the “Toronto on Film!” series is to share important and undervalued films that have been made in this country. It’s meant to be a cinémathèque for older films that aren’t necessarily recognized as classics but that are important historically, aesthetically and socially as a way to explore the richness and diversity of Canadian cinema and more specifically Toronto films. Instead of attempting any form of totalizing gesture to explain what Canadian cinema is (as per the tradition in many ‘official’ world cinema anthologies), this series begins with the specific: not only is its goal to introduce, show and discuss a ‘Toronto film’ but its project is quasi-archeological as the films that will be emphasized will ideally be outside of the public-domain, forgotten about and unearthed from the archives. By being specific, through starting the conversation around particular films and their directors, the aim of this series is to go against preconceived notions of Canadian cinema and to show its heterogeneity. Canadian film scholarship should be more than just the re-writing of twice-told clichés but instead it should be about bringing something out of the past to illuminate the present. It should involve showing the work and sharing it with others. It has to <i>mean </i>something for more than just one person.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">The cinémathèque quality of the “Toronto on Film!” series comes from how it will program <i>older work</i>. As interesting as some new short- and feature-length films can be, there is a sense, in Toronto specifically and I reckon nation-wide too, that knowledge of Canadian film history is lacking and, if you’ve even gotten around to take a Canadian film course, too predicated on certain ‘mainstream’ titles. The idea that Canadian film history should be restricted to feature-length narrative films is also limiting. So instead “Toronto on Film!” will open itself towards alternative media objects: the short film, NFB documentaries and television. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">This is in response to a general apathy I see towards the topic of Canadian film history. It’s always sad to hear that folks don’t watch any Canadian films. It’s always sad to hear emerging Canadian filmmakers looking up to someone like Denis Villeneuve for inspiration or looking up to Netflix as a place for where they can make ‘universal’ content. This is how regional specificity gets loss and it erases such a rich and exciting film history to draw inspiration from. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">For example, last season we showed <i>Glenn Gould’s Toronto </i>(1979) with its filmmaker John McGreevy in attendance. In his best-known City Series, he would get famous guides to provide tours of the world’s urban metropolises: Elie Wiesel in Jerusalem, John Huston in Dublin and, in the work that we showed, Glenn Gould in Toronto. What makes the later so special is that Gould, who is known for his genius piano skills and reclusive temperament, opens himself up, with the help of McGreevy, to the simple pleasures and quotidian life of the city that he has always called home, while also expressing doubt and reticence towards its urban expansion. More people should be discussing McGreevy. His extensive filmography is well worth taking the time to explore. The archive for McGreevy Productions is available at Media Commons at the Robarts Library on the University of Toronto campus.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"> The 2019 Winter Season of “Toronto on Film!” should be equally exciting as we’ll be focusing on the pioneering filmmakers Martin Defalco, Jennifer Hodge de Silva and Peter Lynch. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">Indigenous filmmaking in Canada is now more important and vital than ever. So I want to look back at one of the ground-breaking indigenous feature-length films: Martin Defalco’s 1975 NFB-produced narrative film, <i>Cold Journey. </i>It’s a film about the negative effects of colonialism and the violence of cultural erasure that took place through the federal residential school initiatives, which forced the separation of indigenous children from their parents and then punished them for holding on to their values and not assimilating. Martin Defalco has a unique approach that is noteworthy: he casted non-professional indigenous actors in the lead roles and remained steadfast to the necessity of bleakness to end the story. These traits would be held against the film at its initial release, along with a lack of a theatrical infrastructure, that led to it not reaching an audience. That <i>Cold Journey </i>was made back when it did is incredible. Defalco needs to be recognized as one of the master indigenous filmmakers alongside Gil Cardinal, Alanis Obomsawin and Zacharias Kunuk; and <i>Cold Journey </i>needs to be recognized as one of the masterpieces of Canadian cinema up there with <i>Nobody Waved Good-bye </i>(1964), <i>La vie heureuse de Léopold Z </i>(1965), <i>Crime Wave </i>(1985) and <i>Loyalties </i>(1987). <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5fpk_EVXcDYOSOpPQtlNC5WjLHzvlL6M5CJ5uFiHRL7tYrDPYV0LxAKZuaa5qjSPR4Mnt7HfTfeoyVOUOY2UszyNYkkSrGdmACd9AeWn93WB4We2KrM3lZlMMjC78a79JuQ2JZn8th5U/s1600/Martin+Defalco.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1025" data-original-width="1600" height="204" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5fpk_EVXcDYOSOpPQtlNC5WjLHzvlL6M5CJ5uFiHRL7tYrDPYV0LxAKZuaa5qjSPR4Mnt7HfTfeoyVOUOY2UszyNYkkSrGdmACd9AeWn93WB4We2KrM3lZlMMjC78a79JuQ2JZn8th5U/s320/Martin+Defalco.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">Defalco’s work in general deserves a critical reappraisal for how it treated indigenous cultures and interests within the constraints of National Film Board projects. There are the more explicit works like <i>The Other Side of the Ledger: An Indian View of the Hudson's Bay Company </i>(1972) that was co-directed with Willie Dunn, which deals explicitly with how social welfare and trading shops exploited indigenous communities; and <i>Trawler Fisherman </i>(1966) about the negative effects of industry expansion in the Northern Saskatchewan countryside that spoiled the water with high mercury levels and prevented and reoriented traditional fishing lifestyles. Defalco’s work presents indigenous communities with a great deal of care and dignity along with a rage and resourcefulness in regard to their maltreatment. You can also see how this permeates through environmental themes that keep resurfacing in his other work like <i>Northen Fisherman </i>(1966) and <i>Class Project: The Garbage Movie </i>(1980).<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">The availability of these works on the NFB’s website is part of a larger project to promote indigenous cinema, which has only been growing in the last few years. They currently have five of Defalco’s films online, even though there is still a lot more of it to make public. I also want to highlight Donald Brittain’s <i>Starblanket </i>(1973), on the young indigenous chief Noel Starblanket, which is part of this larger project. Starblanket is particularly relevant in regard to the film <i>Cold Journey </i>as he was the one who suggested to Defalco to make the film and he would have a small role in it. Defalco’s work shows such a great respect for the documentary and its form while also having</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; text-indent: 36pt;"> a faith in its advocacy potential to create real social change. For these reasons alone, it makes Defalco one of the best filmmakers to have worked at the NFB. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">The </span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; text-indent: 36pt;">“Toronto on Film!” screening at</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; text-indent: 36pt;"> 2:30PM on <a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/2170938962969818/">Sunday, February 10</a><sup><a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/2170938962969818/">th</a> </sup> should not be missed. It will spotlight the pioneer African-Canadian filmmaker Jennifer Hodge de Silva. Her most famous work is <i>Home Feeling: Struggle for a Community </i>(1983) that was co-directed with Roger McTair, which looks at the Jane and Finch community in Northern Toronto by focusing on the folks, most notably its Caribbean population, that are effected by structural injustices and police discrimination. Go watch this on the NFB’s website right now if you haven</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; text-indent: 36pt;">’t seen it yet</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; text-indent: 36pt;">. Cameron Bailey, who wrote the definitive essay on her writes, “Whether or not future histories of black filmmaking in Canada begin with Jennifer Hodge de Silva, they will have to acknowledge her importance.” It’s an injustice that not more of Hodge de Silva’s work is available. Luckily I found two works related to her at the Ryerson University Library: </span><i style="font-family: "times new roman", serif; text-indent: 36pt;">Toronto's Ethnic Police Squad </i><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; text-indent: 36pt;">(1979) and a documentary about her </span><i style="font-family: "times new roman", serif; text-indent: 36pt;">Jennifer Hodge: The Pain and The Glory (</i><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; text-indent: 36pt;">1992) by Roger McTair and Claire Prieto (both of whom are impressive filmmakers and authors in their own right). I’ll do my best to try to get a speaker to come. </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">While for the March event we’ll look at two of Peter Lynch’s film: the Toronto-centric short-film <i>Arrowhead </i>(1994), which stars Don McKellar, and also his newest film, <i>Birdland </i>(2018). This screening is organized by fellow film studies graduate student Meghan McDonald. The director will there in attendance for this screening to give an introduction and participate in a post-screening discussion. It will be at 2:30PM on Sunday, March 3<sup>rd </sup>at the Theater in Media Commons at Robarts Library.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"> If you haven’t heard of or seen any of these titles I wholeheartedly recommend you check out at least one of the screenings. It’s what a Canadian open fault should look like.</span></div>

In My Room</span></b><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"> by Ulrich Köhler (Germany): <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">I’ve sometimes heard the creation stories of krautrock or the first
wave of Detroit techno explained as a unifying myth of only
tangentially-related figures. Likewise, I’ve wondered if the disparate but
institutionally-related circle of dffb filmmakers collected under the name
Berliner Schule was as much a school as it was a creation of film critics.
Either way, its individual members (like Petzold, Grisebach, and Köhler’s
partner Ade) have been collectively delivering some of their best work in
recent years and this genre-hopping, apocalyptical adventure film continues the
trend. The DVD-choosing/watching scene filled my heart. <o:p></o:p></i></span></div>

An Elephant Sitting Still</span></b><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"> by Hu Bo (China<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">): I was lucky enough to catch Bela Tarr introduce this film at the
TIFF screening I attended. Tarr tearfully euologized the death of his former
student, Hu Bo, who killed himself before finishing his first feature film. The
preface almost served as a caution to anyone unprepared to sit through a
powerful, contemplative love poem to suicide. For the same reason, I can not
blindly recommend this film: feel well before you see this. Had the haunting
post-rock soundtrack by Hualun been released, it would have probably made my
music list of this year. <o:p></o:p></i></span></div>

Suspiria</span></b><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"> by Luca Guadagnino (Italy): <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Luadagnino creatively reimagines Argento’s masterpiece by boldly
shifting its tone. It’s a move reminiscent of what De Palma’s <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Blow Out</b> does to Antonioni’s <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Blow Up</b> and a move sure to disappoint
those who were comfortable with an unmoving picture of the original classic or
of Guadagnino’s filmography.</i> <o:p></o:p></span></div>

A Faithful Man</span></b><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"> by Louis Garrel (France): <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">This light-hearted story on the reflexivity of lust offers a comic
twist on the usual love triangles Garrell tends to act in, whether it be in his
father’s work or others. If <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Our Time</b>

Shoplifters</span></b><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"> by Hirokazu Kore-eda (Japan): <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">The way this film was marketed caused me to half expect a certain film
festival brand of Hallmark humanism. So, I was pleasantly surprised with what
turned out to be a quiet, touching, but never cloying film that was elevated by
understated performances by the two child actors and an unfussy Haruomi Hosono
score.</i> <o:p></o:p></span></div>

tangentially semi-aware of what happens in the film, halfway thru I was not at
all certain I could rely on my memory and I was sweating like a madman watching
the events unfold. More surprising - I was sweating just as much watching the
film for the second time. It is visually breathtaking, emotionally grounded,
and downright hilarious at times. This is the kind of film that needs to be
seen in theatres for your first viewing. <o:p></o:p></i></span></div>

Un traductor</span></b><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"> (Rodrigo Barriuso, Sebastián Barriuso): <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">I’m totally biased here, I’ll be honest.
Rodrigo is a friend of mine. It’s about Ukrainian children battling
post-Chernobyl radiation exposure. Another reason for my personal bias in favour
of the films. And it’s shot in Cuba (ok, that aspect doesn’t bias me in either
direction). It’s a highly personal story for Rodrigo and Sebastián. The ending
is insanely moving. I’m sold on this film! It’s upsetting to me that this isn’t
a Canadian film (technically) and that the Canadian film establishment is
reluctant to embrace it (looking squarely at TIFF and Telefilm when I say
this). This film is worth seeing on the sheer basis of - “look at what our
fellow Canadian filmmakers are capable of producing!” It’s being embraced by
the Spanish-speaking world even though nearly everyone involved in making this
films lives in Toronto. <o:p></o:p></i></span></div>

They’ll Love Me When I’m Dead</span></b><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"> (Morgan Neville): <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">A very well made film. A bit surreal at times. Loved the BTS of Orson
directing. Loved the ending. I suppose the only thing it was lacking for me is
strong emotional attachment to any person involved in the story - not even
Orson. I give credit to the film for being unapologetic about portraying Orson
as a human being with good sides and deep flaws, rather than a “god of cinema”
who shall not be criticized. The fact this exists at all is mind-boggling. HOW
did they get a hold of any of that footage?! It’s somehow heart-warming to see
that Orson Welles was simultaneously focused and completely scatterbrained with
his ideas. The film went darker than I expected and some moments are utter and
complete surreal WTF-ery. Generally wasn’t super into the “presenter telling us
the story in a staged studio” cutaways.</i> <o:p></o:p></span></div>

the whole, it’s probably healthier that I saw fewer new movies in 2018 than any
other year since I started working as a critic way back in 2001; a combination
of a new beat (writing primarily for a mainstream-oriented American website)
and being beat (finishing a book, teaching multiple courses at different
institutions, having a toddler) meant that I fell behind early and got lapped
entirely around the time of TIFF, when failing to catch key titles by old
favourites and hyped newcomers alike. On top of it all, a number of the films I
did see out of a combination of personal interest and professional obligation
were, either relative to expectation or on their own terms, profoundly
disappointing: <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Maya, Non-Fiction,
Peterloo, Roma, Vice, Hold the Dark, American Dharma</b>, and others. <o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Of
course, I did see movies that I liked and even loved, but looking over the
lists I submitted to different publications, I was mostly just frustrated at
how closely my pick hewed to consensus -- not because I distrust my own taste
(or that of my colleagues) but because I don’t think I gave myself the chance
to stray too far. That’s why, in lieu of a top 10, I’ve submitted a list of
fifteen movies I regretted missing in 2018, each of which I hope to see before
2019 is over. <o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">I don’t think anyone was really prepared for Ian Lagarde’s <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><a href="https://itunes.apple.com/ca/movie/all-you-can-eat-buddha/id1368792633">All You Can Eat Buddha</a> </b>when it<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"> </b>premiered at TIFF in 2017. Who was
this Montreal filmmaker? What was this Québécois film set in a Caribbean
resort? Why mix the sacred with the profane, the spirituality of Buddhism with
the indulgence of an all you can eat buffet? But as per the sad realities of
Canadian film exhibition and marketing, I reckon few people saw it outside of
its own province (where it received some accolades and awards), which is a
shame, because it’s one of the most luminous and mysterious films recently made
in this country that continuously offers itself up for contemplation and
inspiration. I’m sure it’ll come as no shock or offence to anyone if I state
that 2018 was a bad year for Canadian cinema. Some noteworthy exceptions aside,
most of which reached any form of mainstream attention was aesthetically
worthless and culturally correct. There is consistently no desire for innovation or the skill to achieve it. And a desire for positive representation has only lead to non-offensive stereotypes. All of this just comes off as non-dramatic, boring and fake. This is if the work even has aspirations of cultural
expression, a trait that has been diminishing in front of a weak federal
cultural policy that prioritizes international co-productions that continuously
erase any form of regional specificity.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 36.0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">It’s not that <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">All You Can Eat Buddha </b>is a beacon of Québécois culture. As aside
from the accent of the spoken French language and a couple of references to the
French-Canadian province there isn’t much discussion about the nation. But
instead it stands out for its mystery and style. It tells the story of Mike, a
diabetic larger fellow, who goes on vacation to the Hotel Palacio in Cuba. After saving
an octopus he receives supernatural powers that allows him to heal others but
which comes at a self-destructive cost. The more he helps, the more it harms his
own body. The film culminates with Mike’s body half blue due to his diabetes and with
the El Palacio torn-down because of a civil war. If describing the plot of <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">All You Can Eat Buddha </b>seems absurd it's
that it works best as an aesthetic experience of a cosmic consciousness: its
simple absurdity allows for the opening up towards thinking differently. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 36.0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">The beauty of <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">All You Can Eat Buddha </b>comes from how it doesn’t resemble anything
you would have seen. Lagarde’s project begins with the sublime: What new
images can be created? How to encounter the unknown? And what would be the
stakes of this project? Lagarde not only creates new visions but through
them there is also the possibility of new human relations and new thoughts to
exist. This is the total liberty of <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">All
You Can Eat Buddha</b>.<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"> </b>There is a refusal of a naturalism and the sociological as it rather experiment in
film technique, an ambiguousness and a dream-like temporality. It progresses through
minimal dialogue, ambient exposition and slow zooms, piercing stares and
voice-over narration. The film works on a register of wonder and mystery, beauty and contemplation. There is the suggestion is that there is something holy and spiritual in
regards to Mike but which is never explicitly explained. This is only heightened by the sense of wonder around Mike and the psychedelic scenes around his hallucinations. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman";">The experience of watching </span><b style="font-family: "Times New Roman";">All You Can Eat Buddha </b><span style="font-family: "times new roman";">is not rational. Instead i</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; text-indent: 36pt;">t's more experiential as it heightens sensations</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; text-indent: 36pt;">, mood and atmosphere. There isn’t anything
really like it in Canadian cinema: First off there are its carnivalesque characters, then there is its Caribbean setting, and finally there is its talking octopus! The closest thing to it that I can think of is Andrei Tarkovsky's <b>Stalker</b>. It’s the best thing that Lagarde has done. Aside from being a photographer, Lagarde's film work includes a Carte blanche short film for the Festival du nouveau cinéma where in a Maddin-like style a man and a women meet in a cabin and he ends up giving birth to a large golden egg. There's </span><b style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 36pt;">Vent Solaire </b><span style="text-indent: 36pt;"> (2011) about a strange cult and </span><b style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 36pt;">Merce</b><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 36pt;"> (2017) that follows a few teens in central Havana. But perhaps
the best ones are </span><b style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 36pt;">Éclat du Jour </b><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 36pt;">(2013)
about delinquent Québécois teenagers that cause trouble in a small Montréal neighbourhood</span><b style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 36pt;"> </b><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 36pt;">and </span><b style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 36pt;">Grimaces </b><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 36pt;">(2016) which is a Tashlinesque
tale of otherness through the continuation of the weird and funny faces children make well into adulthood. All of these works, which are created with the artistic collaborator Gabrielle Tougas-Fréchette, aim to show and
create something new but which reach with </span><b style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 36pt;">All
You Can Eat Buddha </b><span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 36pt;">a whole other level. I’m really excited to see what Lagarde does next and I have no qualms with stating that he's one of the country's best directors.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 36.0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman";">But it's hard to really position Lagarde or this
film as a model for others. The film ecosystem in Canada is so risk-adverse and fragile while it explicitly aims
towards an ‘American’ universalism to the detriment of any cultural expression (especially in English Canada).
If <b>All You Can Eat Budhha</b> teaches us anything it's that we should: experience
differently, think differently, feel differently, see differently. As long
as there is a collective consciousness that is threading on tired clichés from south of the
border and has a mentality of defeat in face of a perceived sense of lack then the battle is
lost before it even started. Better to follow Mike’s footsteps in <b>All You Can Eat Buddha</b> and to find
inspiration in the divine even if it shows its face in the profane. Success can only be found through creating a new territory.</span></div>

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "times new roman"; mso-ansi-language: EN-CA; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">A
unique experience in Canadian cinema, Erik Anderson's newest feature to get a
public screening is impressive for its liberty and vulnerability. Just like
Rebeccah Love’s <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Acres </i>from last year,
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">My Thesis Film: A Thesis Film by Erik Anderson, </i>with its
uncharacteristic lengthy running time of nearly four hours, reorients the traditional
length onto its own narrative terms. When the aesthetic norm for first
time and second features is either an ascetic formalism or a social naturalism (usually
due to film festival imperatives), Anderson's film impresses in its ability to
successfully <span style="mso-bidi-font-style: italic;">entertain</span> and
captivate, to make you think and laugh. And even though its duration is lengthy,
it never feels long as through its character’s excitement and vulnerability it
is able to capture a thoughtfulness, pleasure and doubt. And this is
especially redeeming as the indie feature norm seems to be to oppress or to
bore, that is if they are even properly made or dramatic. But thankfully <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">My Thesis Film </i>bypasses these shortcomings
as it is surprisingly well acted, stylistically polished, entertaining and most
importantly funny. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

Thesis Film </span></i><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "times new roman"; mso-ansi-language: EN-CA; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">is about struggling to
find your place – for Erik in Toronto, trying to complete his thesis film – but
it does so with a lightness and a melancholy. Though the narrative is obviously
fictionalized it still seems closer to a self-portrait for Anderson as, having
known him over the years, I can attest that he has really put a lot of himself into
his film, let alone that he stars in it and that he’s the one experiencing
these re-enactments. <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">My Thesis Film</i>
does a really good job at capturing a distinct experience of Toronto from the
perspective of a grad student in film production, which in this case is at York
University. It captures the bond between friends, interpersonal debate and
conflict about representation in the arts, and feelings of insecurity
experienced in these settings. It’s a quite distinct experience of the city,
which isn’t always welcoming. But it does so with a humour that comes from an
awkwardness in the addressing of these prickly topics that would make any fans
of <i>Seinfeld </i><span style="mso-bidi-font-style: italic;">or<i> Curb
Your Enthusiasm </i></span>both smile and cringe. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; text-indent: 36.0pt;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "times new roman"; mso-ansi-language: EN-CA; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">There is its prologue <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Plato's Republic: Book 1 </i>that sets the rhythm and tone to
the film. It is a modern day adaptation of a discourse on justice from Plato’s <i>Republic</i>.
Anderson, in the lead role, surprises in terms of his acting and his range of
emotions. But what’s especially noteworthy is the film’s dialogues. Words pop,
language is nuanced and thoughtful, and most conversations progress as if all
of these characters have spent years in the debate club. The character types are
all different and have these well-defined personalities that provides the richness of
the mosaic of voices and perspectives of this milieu. And there’s a naturalness
and articulateness to all of them, which provides a more realistic portrait of
a certain young educated class in Toronto more so than the inarticulateness of so many other Canadian low budget features. And their wit and opposing views is
also the source of the film’s humour.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; text-indent: 36.0pt;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "times new roman"; mso-ansi-language: EN-CA; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Following the <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Plato </i>prologue, <i>My Thesis Film</i> progresses through three different
chapters: Chapter 1. Erik arrives to Toronto from Montreal to start his MFA at
York. There he starts to question his idea for his thesis film as he encounters
overwhelming critiques in regards to gender parity and diversity. Throughout
the year he spends a lot of time with his friends Fernando and Gary (played by Juan Arce and Franco Nguyen) while they
start encountering other types that would be recognizable for anyone that has
gone through a film studies degree: there is the brash young filmmaker who just
got his first film into Slamdance, an esteemed Mexican filmmaker who is known
for his 'slow' films, and the militant feminist and the spiritual hippie, among some others. The first
year is a struggle for Erik and afterwards, as he didn’t receive any financial
support, he's forced to return to his mother's in Victoria to spend the summer.
Chapter 2. This is a sad summer for Erik as he starts to take on menial tasks
to make a living – including, and even failing at, being a barista – and where,
however well intentioned his mother, aunt and her husband try to be, they are
actually not that encouraging. But Erik finally returns to Toronto, hopeful
that it'll be a better year, but that is still to be determined. Chapter 3. After
struggling with his Plato adaptation to take off, through a discussion with his
best friend, he decides to incorporate his initial idea into a <i>making-of </i>of
a <i>making-of </i>of his film. And there he finds success, well
sort-of, at least he completes it before he has to go through a lengthy critique.</span></div>

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "times new roman"; mso-ansi-language: EN-CA; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">With <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">My
Thesis Film </i>and Calvin Thomas, Yonah and Lev Lewis’s <i>Spice It Up</i><span style="mso-bidi-font-style: italic;">, another new Toronto film that had a fraught
production history, it appears that the new generation of local filmmakers, which have started making work around 2010,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>are </span>starting
to be more explicit about the challenges of creation and getting programmed in this city. This reflexive tendencies tends to be more funny
than dour and recalls something like Luc Moullet’s <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Les Sièges de l'Alcazar</i> meets the CBC. It’s very interesting and I highly recommend both of these films if you have a chance to see them. <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Spice It Up </i>is about a young woman
filmmaker who also arrives to Toronto from out of town to complete her thesis
film and that also has some shades of ancient Greek philosophy, though for her she is studying at
Ryerson. In it you can find the local film critic Adam Nayman
(after his small role earlier on this year in <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Fail to Appear</i>) as a film professor giving his students advice and
feedback that sounds just like he does in person. Matt Johnson also has a
surprising small role in it as a playful and lewd photographer. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; text-indent: 36.0pt;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "times new roman"; mso-ansi-language: EN-CA; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">So with both <i>My Thesis
Film </i>and <i>Spice It Up</i> a new landscape and geography of
the city emerges and with that different characters and ways of being and
talking. The freedom of these works, and
especially of <i>My Thesis Film</i>, is that it elides conventional
filmmaking trappings, and there's also a sense or urgency and necessity
at play. Anderson talks about <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">My Thesis
Film</i> as being thought out and conceived over a five year period and that it
was made with the barest of crews (usually one or two people) and without any
of the usual arts grants or funding. It's this necessity of creation, vulnerability
of representation and the pulling off of the project that makes it so admirable. <i>My Thesis Film</i>
is a great model for all struggling filmmakers.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; text-indent: 36.0pt;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "times new roman"; mso-ansi-language: EN-CA; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">It will be a real shame if it does
not get more then the only two screenings that it has received so far.</span></div>

<div>
There's
a truism in Canadian cinema which is that it's surprising it even
exists. Just look at some of its major figures like Don Shebib, Joyce
Wieland or even Patricia Rozema and you'd see that sometime throughout
their career, and with good reason, that they've lamented the sad state
of production, distribution and even reception in this country. However
much cultural prestige they've been conferred, I would posit that all
Canadian filmmakers are 'orphans' of a national media industry that was
never that interested in fostering a domestic film industry with the
goals of cultural expression or regional specificity. Instead you keep
hearing about the creation of 'global' oriented 'content', while screen incentives keep being directed towards runaway American productions. </div>
<div>
And
if you've heard as many horror stories as I have from film production students about
the difficulties they've encountered each step of their way to make their work and get it
seen then you would understand how even just the completion of a project
and then getting <i>only one</i> public projection could be seen as a success. </div>
<div>
And it's not
that there hasn't been other interesting Canadian films that came out
this year - I've seen more then my fair share, though I'm still
wondering why... - but they seem to come out with a build-in
ephemerality: Catch us if you can, or not at all...</div>
<div dir="ltr">
With
that in mind, I just want to signal a unique screening happening this
week: I forget how many years exactly it has been in the making for -
four years? or is it five, or is it even more? - and how many requests I
regret not taking up with its director, but Erik Anderson's thesis
film, <i>My Thesis Film: A Thesis Film by Erik Anderson</i>, is finally
getting screened in Toronto: On Wednesday at 6:30PM at the Lightbox. I
can only speak for myself to say this is a cause for celebration and
that I'm really excited to see it. </div>
And it's another great
sign of the uniqueness and perseverance of Toronto DIY filmmakers that
so far this year they have already produced <i>Fail to Appear, Mouthful, A Woman's Block, Spice it Up! </i>and <i>22 Chaser</i> (if I can indulge myself by including this gritty thriller). It's time for folks to start listening.David D.http://www.blogger.com/profile/14646599764019358808noreply@blogger.com2
