  • From Bombay to Mumbai
    Travelogue Armchair travels From Bombay to Mumbai This learning reminiscence discussion with six senior citizens from Eudora, Missouri, explores a different travel destination each month with things to learn, questions to answer, and a whole lot of fun along the way. This month they are traveling to Mumbai, India, to immerse themselves in the Indian culture. Traveling How-To’s & Tips • This is a copy of the complete trip for the facilitator to use. This activity can be acted out or read aloud in a skit-like manner by participants representing the six different Front Porch characters using this large-print dialogue. • Check out the links in the article for additional information to bring to the activity. • This PDF slide presentation may be better suited as a stand-alone activity for some audiences. The presenter can refer to the facilitator copy of the complete trip for links and more information to add as the slides are reviewed. • Post a sign announcing the trip. • If your group isn’t familiar with the Front Porch Travelers, have them Meet the McGivers (and friends). A Travel Advisory from Nell and Truman: If using all the information in Travelogue seems too complex for your group, trim it back and just present sections—such as showing and discussing the slide show or copies of the pictures, reading and discussing trivia points, or asking and discussing questions from the Discussion Starters. From Bombay to Mumbai Introduction India is a land of mystery and intrigue—so many sights, sounds, and smells (some good and some not so good).

  • The Reluctant Fundamentalist
    Mongrel Media Presents The Reluctant Fundamentalist A film by Mira Nair (128 min., USA, 2012) Language: English and Urdu Distribution Publicity Bonne Smith Star PR 1028 Queen Street West Tel: 416-488-4436 Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M6J 1H6 Fax: 416-488-8438 Tel: 416-516-9775 Fax: 416-516-0651 E-mail: [email protected] E-mail: [email protected] www.mongrelmedia.com High res stills may be downloaded from http://www.mongrelmedia.com/press.html SYNOPSIS 2011, Lahore. At a café a Pakistani man named Changez (Riz Ahmed) tells Bobby (Liev Schreiber), an American journalist, about his experiences in the United States. Roll back ten years, and we find a younger Changez fresh from Princeton, seeking his fortune on Wall Street. The American Dream seems well within his grasp, complete with a smart and gorgeous artist girlfriend, Erica (Kate Hudson). But when the Twin Towers are attacked, a cultural divide slowly begins to crack open between Changez and Erica. Changez’s dream soon begins to slip into nightmare: he is transformed from a well-educated, upwardly mobile businessman to a scapegoat and perceived enemy. Taking us through the culturally rich and beguiling worlds of New York, Lahore and Istanbul, The Reluctant Fundamentalist is a story about conflicting ideologies where perception and suspicion have the power to determine life or death. A MULTI-LAYERED VISION “Looks can be deceiving.” Changez Khan “An Indian director making a film about a Pakistani man. That’s not an easy thing to do,” says novelist and co-screenwriter Mohsin Hamid of The Reluctant Fundamentalist, the new film from award-winning filmmaker Mira Nair, based on Hamid’s acclaimed novel of the same name.

  • Museum of the Moving Image Presents Comprehensive Terrence Malick Retrospective
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE MUSEUM OF THE MOVING IMAGE PRESENTS COMPREHENSIVE TERRENCE MALICK RETROSPECTIVE Moments of Grace: The Collected Terrence Malick includes all of his features, some alternate versions, and a preview screening of his new film A Hidden Life November 15–December 8, 2019 Astoria, New York, November 12, 2019—In celebration of Terrence Malick’s new film, the deeply spiritual, achingly ethical, and politically resonant A Hidden Life, Museum of the Moving Image presents the comprehensive retrospective Moments of Grace: The Collected Terrence Malick, from November 15 through December 8. The films in the series span a period of nearly 50 years, opening with Malick’s 1970s breakthroughs Badlands (1973) and Days of Heaven (1978), through his career-revival masterworks The Thin Red Line (1998) and The New World (2005), and continuing with his 21st- century films—from Cannes Palme d’Or winner The Tree of Life (2011); the trio of To the Wonder (2012), Knight of Cups (2015), and Song to Song (2017); and sole documentary project Voyage of Time (2016)—through to this year’s A Hidden Life. Two of these films will be presented in alternate versions—Voyage of Time and The New World—a testament to Malick’s ambitious and exploratory approach to editing. In addition to Malick’s own feature films, the series includes Pocket Money (1972), an ambling buddy comedy with Lee Marvin and Paul Newman, which he wrote (but did not direct), and Thy Kingdom Come (2018), the documentary featurette shot on the set of To the Wonder by photographer Eugene Richards.

  • David O. Russell Directs a Prada-Filled Fever Dream the Oscar-Nominated Director of Silver Linings Playbook Makes His Fashion Film Debut with Past Forward
    I-D.VICE.COM Data 18-11-2016 Pagina Foglio 1 / 3 david o. russell directs a prada-filled fever dream The Oscar-nominated director of Silver Linings Playbook makes his fashion film debut with Past Forward. He tells us about making abstract art with Miuccia Prada and why it feels so politically relevant. Abstract clips of the short film David O. Russell created with Miuccia Prada debuted at her brand's spring 17 show in September. Past Forward debuted in full yesterday on Prada.com, feeling more intensely surreal and suspenseful than it might have two months ago. The film follows three glamorous heroines — Freida Pinto, Allison Williams, and Kuoth Wiel — in a fragmented pursuit through parallel worlds. It's both dreamlike and uncomfortably real. "I'm very drawn to Hitchcock and the feeling of that pursuit movie, because unconsciously I knew that the way we were approaching this point in history, we were about to go over a waterfall," the Oscar-nominated director tells i-D. "Now that we have gone over that waterfall, it's interesting to me that some people say, 'I thought your movie was about all the experiences and emotions in life,' and some people would say, 'I thought your movie was about all the people who were going to be deported.' I never saw it like that, but it completely makes sense." 044119 Prada's spring/summer 17 collection weaves through the layered narratives seamlessly. Minimalist 90s suits and uncluttered trench coats, free from the flamboyant ostrich feathers that appeared on the runway, are less important than emotions and identities.

  • Love Sonia to Open 2018 Indian Film Festival of Melbourne!
    Principal Partner LOVE SONIA TO OPEN 2018 INDIAN FILM FESTIVAL OF MELBOURNE! www.iffm.com.au The Indian Film Festival of Melbourne is thrilled to announce LOVE SONIA as the Opening Night film for 2018, and to welcome Director Tabrez Noorani and stars Freida Pinto (Slumdog Millionaire), Richa Chadha (Gangs of Wasseypur and Masaan) and Mrunal Thakur (Kumkum Bhagya) as special guests. They join IFFM VIP guest, actor Ali Fazal who this week was invited by the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Science to be a member. LOVE SONIA marks the major directorial debut for Tabrez Noorani, inspired by his extraordinary experiences in the world of human trafficking. While line-producing films such as Slumdog Millionaire, Life of Pi and Zero Dark Thirty, Noorani, a passionate fighter for human rights, was also working alongside anti-trafficking organisations to conduct raids on Mumbai brothels. “This is an extraordinary and important film from a director with enormous insight into the world he’s portraying”, says IFFM Director Mitu Bhowmick Lange LOVE SONIA is the story of Sonia, a young Indian village girl whose life changes irrevocably when she is entrapped in the global sex trade while trying to save her beloved sister Preeti. Battling with a strength she didn’t know she had, and determined not to become one of the 800,000 women and children who are victims of the international sex trade industry every year, Sonia’s searing journey spans three continents and a lifetime of experiences. "We are delighted to be able to open the Indian Film Festival of Melbourne, and are honoured to share our film down under, especially in the culturally diverse city of Melbourne”, says Noorani, who collaborated with powerhouse Life of Pi producer David Womak for three years to develop the film.

  • TRACING the TEMPORAL ASSEMBLAGE of INDIAN MEDIA a Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School O
    THE AFFECTIVE NATION: TRACING THE TEMPORAL ASSEMBLAGE OF INDIAN MEDIA A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Communication, Culture, and Technology By Lakshmi Padmanabhan, Bachelor of Arts Washington, DC April 28, 2011 Copyright 2011 by Lakshmi Padmanabhan All Rights Reserved ii THE AFFECTIVE NATION: TRACING THE TEMPORAL ASSEMBLAGE OF INDIAN MEDIA Lakshmi Padmanabhan, Bachelor of Arts Thesis Advisor: Jatinder P. Singh, Doctor of Philosophy. ABSTRACT This thesis examines two films – Slumdog Millionaire (Boyle, 2008) and Dostana (Mansukhani, 2008) to explore the circulation of national identities within these films and the circulation of the films themselves within larger discourses of the nation, particularly India. This thesis argues that our current cultural moment require changing understandings of the idea of ‘film’, to include its multiple networks of capital and affect, and a changing understanding of ‘nation’ as materially illustrated in these films. The aim of this thesis is to conceive of a way to understand films as a collection of temporalities, and to map the duration of these temporalities as they reveal the emerging networks of circulation that change the ontology of both film and nation. I also argue that the ‘nation’ is an affective construct, and that ‘nationness’ is the ‘trace’ or ‘residue’ that these films bear. This argument also marks a specific approach to the idea of a ‘nation’ itself that includes more than the boundaries of the state, or the ethnicity of the people, but begins to address the way objects possess certain national traces, particularly within cultural objects such as the arts.
