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.

Shoot the Messenger
Shoot the Messenger Dir: Ngozi Onwurah, UK, 2006 A review by Stephen Harper, University of Portsmouth, UK The BBC drama Shoot the Messenger (BBC2, 30 August, 2006) is a provocative exploration of racial politics within London's African Caribbean community. Originally entitled Fuck Black People!, the film provoked strong criticism, not least from the pressure group Ligali. The drama was written by Sharon Foster, best known as the writer of Babyfather, who won the Dennis Potter Screenwriting Award for her screenplay. David Oyelowo plays Joe Pascale, a well-meaning middle class schoolteacher whose efforts to 'make a difference' in the education of failing black pupils in an inner-city school result in unemployment, schizophrenia and homelessness. The tribulations of the idealistic teacher are hardly new in British television drama: Jimmy McGovern's 1995 series Hearts and Minds is one noteworthy example. But Shoot the Messenger's central concern with race orients it specifically towards contemporary debates around multiculturalism and social exclusion such as that prompted by the Parekh Report (2000). The concern with black educational failure is key within these debates. A DfES report 'Getting it. Getting it right' (2007) noted that Black Caribbean students in Britain are excluded from school far more often than white pupils. Although BBC television drama has addressed these issues in recent years in productions such as Lennie James' Storm Damage (BBC2, 2000), Shoot the Messenger nonetheless carries a heavy representational burden. For several years the lack of racial diversity in BBC programmes has been criticised (Creeber, 2004) and concerns about the BBC's treatment of its visible minority staff abound (see, for example, "BBC still showing its 'hideously white' face," 2002). -
Kord Myths 19Thc
From the American Myth to the American Dream: Alternative Worlds in Recent Hollywood Westerns Susanne Kord, UCL ‘This is the West... When the legend becomes fact, print the legend.’ (Newspaper publisher Dutton Peabody in The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, 1962) Abstract: This chapter analyzes two recent popular Westerns, Andrew Dominik’s The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford (2007) and Tommy Lee Jones’s The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada (2005). In these films, the Western myth is replaced by a new myth, the ‘American Dream’, in which the lone legend is re-cast as family man and breadwinner. The old American frontier, as well, assumes a new dimension, moving from a utopian ‘frontier’ understood as the symbol of discovery, exploration, and Manifest Destiny, to a dystopian and defensive vision of a national border that must be protected against ‘illegals’. The chapter argues that Westerns, in offering themselves as alternative worlds to 2 American modernity, show that myths are difficult to let go of, particularly if the myth that replaces them is as inexpressibly dreary as the American Dream. Classic Westerns are America’s most enduring mythical genre. Like all good myths, they show us an alternative world, ‘a heroically decent America,’1 a world whose cowboys and gunslingers, sheriffs and bandits, prospectors and ranchers inhabit ‘a masculine world where men were men and women—on the rare occasions they appeared—seemed to like it that way.’2 Common consensus has declared this world to be either one of the past--a time of lawlessness, chaos, racism and the genocide of native Americans3—or mythical fiction—the time of Manifest Destiny, rugged individualism, romantic rides into stunning sunsets, and apolitical fireside chats.4 Neither its association with the past nor its reputation for peddling sentimental myths have particularly endeared the Western to scholars and critics. -

Vincent Cassel
VINCENT CASSEL A FILM BY ÉDOUARD DELUC TUHEÏ ADAMS AND MALIK ZIDI RUNNING TIME: 1 HOUR 42 MINUTES CONTACTS INTERNATIONAL MARKETING INTERNATIONAL PUBLICITY Lucie Michaut Alexandre Bourg [email protected] [email protected] Katie Paxton [email protected] PHOTOS AND PRESS KIT DOWNLOADABLE ON THE EXTRANET https://www.extranetstudiocanal.com/Materiel/ SYNOPSIS 1891. Painter Paul Gauguin is already well-known in Parisian artistic circles, but is tired of the so-called civilized world and its political, moral and artistic conventions. Leaving his wife and children behind, he ventures alone to the other end of the world, Tahiti, consumed with a yearning for original purity, and ready to sacrifice everything for his quest. Impoverished and solitary, Gauguin pushes deep into the Tahitian jungle, where he meets the Maoris and Tehura, his muse, who will inspire his most iconic works of art. INTERVIEW WITH ÉDOUARD DELUC Where did your desire to make this film come from? Édouard Deluc: It comes from my encounter with Noa Noa, the travel diary Gauguin wrote after his first trip to Tahiti in 1893. It’s an adventure of incredible poetry, about the mysteries of creation, the love for distant lands, the absolute dedication to art, the need to create an oeuvre. But it’s also a story about love and freedom. I discovered the book during my studies at the Beaux-Arts, and it had stayed in my library ever since, like the ghost of a possible film. In 2012, after a summer reading W. Somerset Maugham’s The Moon and Sixpence (1919), another book with a rather crazy romantic strength, I dove once again into Noa Noa, that was lying on my desk. -
UNIVERSITY of COLORADO at BOULDER HEROES, DEVILS and FALSE PROPHETS: WHY the NEW AMERICAN WESTERN DOESN't BELIEVE ANYMORE BY
UNIVERSITY OF COLORADO AT BOULDER HEROES, DEVILS and FALSE PROPHETS: WHY THE NEW AMERICAN WESTERN DOESN’T BELIEVE ANYMORE BY COURTNEY E. FELLION ADVISOR: DR. MELINDA BARLOW HONORS COMMITTEE MEMBERS: DR. JENNIFER PETERSON MIA SEMINGSON BOULDER, COLORADO SPRING, 2008 Introduction Between the pages of one of my mother’s forgotten scrapbooks, among the yellowed family portraits and faded newspaper clippings, there lies a peculiar photograph without a caption. I stumbled across this photograph one bored summer day, and its mystery instantly captured my imagination. I stole it from the page and taped it to my wall next to photographs of my friends, as though a trophy from my past. This photo contains the face of a man whose name my family doesn’t even remember. He has a severe jaw line and dark hair, and is simply clad in what appears to be Mexican gaucho ensemble, with a wide- brimmed cowboy hat. He is the spitting image Fig. 1 The Unknown Cowboy of Gregory Peck’s villainous cowboy in Duel in the Sun (1946). Today I still don’t know who the man in the photograph is, or how his image came to live among my family’s collections of portraits, but I carry it with me, like a badge of the Old American West that somehow unlocks a mysterious part of myself. Although my college education has deconstructed the image of the cowboy as part of a greater national myth that exploited Western binaries in an attempt to condense history into a linear vision of progress and manifest destiny, I still believe there is a hidden message behind the grimacing man in this photograph. -
