  • CELEBRATING FORTY YEARS of FILMS WORTH TALKING ABOUT 39 Years, 2 Months, and Counting…
    5 JAN 18 1 FEB 18 1 | 5 JAN 18 - 1 FEB 18 88 LOTHIAN ROAD | FILMHOUSECinema.COM CELEBRATING FORTY YEARS OF FILMS WORTH TALKING ABOUT 39 Years, 2 Months, and counting… As you’ll spot deep within this programme (and hinted at on the front cover) January 2018 sees the start of a series of films that lead up to celebrations in October marking the 40th birthday of Filmhouse as a public cinema on Lothian Road. We’ve chosen to screen a film from every year we’ve been bringing the very best cinema to the good people of Edinburgh, and while it is tremendous fun looking back through the history of what has shown here, it was quite an undertaking going through all the old programmes and choosing what to show, and a bit of a personal journey for me as one who started coming here as a customer in the mid-80s (I know, I must have started very young...). At that time, I’d no idea that Filmhouse had only been in existence for less than 10 years – it seemed like such an established, essential institution and impossible to imagine it not existing in a city such as Edinburgh. My only hope is that the cinema is as important today as I felt it was then, and that the giants on whose shoulders we currently stand feel we’re worthy of their legacy. I hope you can join us for at least some of the screenings on this trip down memory lane... And now, back to the now.

  • The Vanishing Screenplay: Jean-Claude Carrière at BFI Southbank in July 2012
    12/37 The Vanishing Screenplay: Jean-Claude Carrière at BFI Southbank in July 2012 The contribution of the writer is often overlooked in cinema, yet it’s inseparable from the creative process of filmmaking. This season lauds an ‘invisible giant’ of European cinema, screenwriter Jean-Claude Carrière. He is also a novelist and essayist, cartoonist and sometime director and actor, and has recently collaborated with director Michael Haneke on the script for The White Ribbon (2009) and appeared in Abbas Kiarostami’s Certified Copy (2010). He is probably best known for his working relationship with Luis Buñuel, who both co-scripted most of the titles of the great Spanish director’s French period. Carrière’s films for Buñuel include the erotic psycho-fairytale Belle de Jour (1967), the surreal The Phantom of Liberty (1974) and the deliciously satirical The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie (1972), released in cinemas nationwide on 29 June for its fortieth anniversary by Studiocanal and the ICO. It will also be screened as an extended run as part of the season. BFI Southbank is delighted to announce that Carrière will give an on-stage introduction to a preview screening of The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie on Thursday 28 June. International collaborations for Carrière followed in the late-70s and 80s. These include acclaimed literary adaptations of sprawling and seemingly un- adaptable works for directors like Volker Schlöndorff (The Tin Drum, 1979), and Philip Kaufman (The Unbearable Lightness of Being, 1988) and also his dream- like rendering of Proust in Swann in Love (1984). This last film was co-written with Sir Peter Brook, whose earlier work with Carrière included The Mahabarata and presaged an extended departure from screen to stage writing.

  • Sight & Sound Films of 2007
    Sight & Sound Films of 2007 Each year we ask a selection of our contributors - reviewers and critics from around the world - for their five films of the year. It's a very loosely policed subjective selection, based on films the writer has seen and enjoyed that year, and we don't deny them the choice of films that haven't yet reached the UK. And we don't give them much time to ponder, either - just about a week. So below you'll find the familiar and the obscure, the new and the old. From this we put together the top ten you see here. What distinguishes this particular list is that it's been drawn up from one of the best years for all-round quality I can remember. 2007 has seen some extraordinary films. So all of the films in the ten are must-sees and so are many more. Enjoy. - Nick James, Editor. 1 4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days (Cristian Mungiu) 2 Inland Empire (David Lynch) 3 Zodiac (David Fincher) = 4 I’m Not There (Todd Haynes) The Lives of Others (Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck) 6 Silent Light (Carlos Reygadas) = 7 The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford (Andrew Dominik) Syndromes and a Century (Apichatpong Weerasethakul) No Country for Old Men (Ethan and Joel Coen) Eastern Promises (David Cronenberg) 1 Table of Contents – alphabetical by critic Gilbert Adair (Critic and author, UK)............................................................................................4 Kaleem Aftab (Critic, The Independent, UK)...............................................................................4 Geoff Andrew (Critic

  • The Dissipating Aura of Cinema by Kristen Daly
    2/18/2016 TRANSFORMATIONS Journal of Media & Culture ISSN 1444­3775 2007 Issue No. 15 — Walter Benjamin and the Virtual The Dissipating Aura of Cinema By Kristen Daly For over one hundred years, moving images have been recorded onto frames on expensive celluloid tape and projected by fairly simple machines. This has been a remarkably reliable way of recording and exhibiting, but also a remarkably static media technology. Films cannot easily be reproduced, delivered or manipulated. The film print costs between two and three thousand dollars and can be over a mile long. In many ways, the film reel had resisted the characteristics attributed to it in Walter Benjamin’s “The Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction.” Robert Flaherty dropped a cigarette on his original edited version of Nanook of the North (1922) destroying his only print. He had to organize an entire second expedition north to gather footage and again edit it into the version we know today (Canudo). Film ages and degrades, so it is estimated that less than ten percent of the earliest films currently exist. Only with the introduction of digital and computer technologies have Benjamin’s expectations of cinema been brought to fruition. Reproducibility, or as William J. Mitchell terms it “digital replication” of cinema, has brought about a diminishing aura, and a “tremendous shattering of tradition” as movies have morphed from ritual art objects into “fragments of information that circulate in the high-speed networks now ringing the globe and that can be received, transformed, and recombined like DNA to produce new intellectual structures having their own dynamics and value” (52).
