  • 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

  • Ghost Faces, Genre Bodies
    1 Ghost Faces, Genre Bodies Part 1: Bodies The Enduring Reign of Masochism: Post-9/11 Hollywood and the Death Drive The events of September 11, 2001, were the most significant act of terrorism on United States soil. Coming on the heels of the panic, now forgotten but then potent, over the new millennium and what it might bring forth, 9/11 seemed like a confirmation that society had entered into a horrifying new reality. Given the gravity and wide-reaching implications of 9/11, it is not surprising that post-millennial Hollywood masculinity is commonly read as a reaction to these events. If we consider certain films of the 1990s, such as Quentin Tarantino’s Reservoir Dogs (1992), with its extended torture scene; Oliver Stone’s Natural Born Killers (1994), in the connections it makes between a murderous, lawless society and the breakdown of the Oedipal family, signaled by father-daughter incest; and David Fincher’s Seven (1995), with its grisly and unprecedentedly graphic images of violated bodies and its innovation of the serial killer aesthetic it helped to enshrine, the pessimism of popular culture was already well under way by the time 9/11 occurred. What changed after 9/11 was that this culture of exuberant grimness became newly validated along with a new representational mode of graphic literal- ism, especially in terms of violent content. Hence films such as Eli Roth’s Hostel (2005), television programs such as The Sopranos (1999–2007), the zombie-apocalypse drama The Walking Dead (2010– present), and the end- less glut of Reality TV shows that trade in on the public humiliation and suffering of their subjects.1 What remains interesting in the post-millennial period and what requires further interpretation always are the ways in which films (and television programs) of this era continue to reflect what is at stake for American culture—and reveal that this “what” is forever staked on the image of masculinity.

  • Production Notes
    An Ecosse Films Production for Miramax Films, UK Film Council and BBC Films BRIDESHEAD REVISITED PRODUCTION NOTES FINAL DRAFT Approved 4/4/08 1 SHORT SYNOPSIS Brideshead Revisited is a poignant story of forbidden love and the loss of innocence set in England prior to the Second World War, a period when the landed gentry began to lose some of their many privileges. The story begins in 1925 at Oxford where Charles Ryder (Matthew Goode) is befriended by the louche and flamboyant Sebastian Flyte (Ben Whishaw), son of Lord and Lady Marchmain (Michael Gambon and Emma Thompson). Charles is quickly seduced by his friend‟s opulent and glamorous world and thrilled by an invitation to „Brideshead‟, the Marchmain‟s magnificent ancestral home. Beguiled by his surroundings, Charles becomes infatuated with Sebastian‟s beautiful sister, Julia (Hayley Atwell). As his emotional attachment to the young Marchmains grows, Charles finds himself increasingly at odds with the family‟s strongest bond: a deep and abiding Catholic faith. LONG SYNOPSIS Brideshead Revisited is an evocative and poignant story of forbidden love and the loss of innocence set in pre-World War II England as the privileged aristocracy fell into decline. It tells the story of young, middle-class Charles Ryder‟s involvement with the aristocratic Marchmain family over a period of 20 years, and in particular, with the Marchmain brother and sister, Sebastian and Julia. Charles meets Sebastian, the charismatic but flawed younger son of the family, at Oxford University. He is soon seduced both by Sebastian and his world of wealth, glamour, and outrageous behaviour.
