1997 Sundance Film Festival Awards Jurors
1997 SUNDANCE FILM FESTIVAL The 1997 Sundance Film Festival continued to attract crowds, international attention and an appreciative group of alumni fi lmmakers. Many of the Premiere fi lmmakers were returning directors (Errol Morris, Tom DiCillo, Victor Nunez, Gregg Araki, Kevin Smith), whose earlier, sometimes unknown, work had received a warm reception at Sundance. The Piper-Heidsieck tribute to independent vision went to actor/director Tim Robbins, and a major retrospective of the works of German New-Wave giant Rainer Werner Fassbinder was staged, with many of his original actors fl own in for forums. It was a fi tting tribute to both Fassbinder and the Festival and the ways that American independent cinema was indeed becoming international.

Hoher Besuch aus England: Der neue Newsletter kommt mal wieder et- Kinotechnikspezialist was unpünktlich in Ihren Briefkasten (ob Duncan bei Laser Hotline elektronisch oder in Papierform) geflattert. Und das nicht ohne Grund. Denn just als wir die aktuelle Ausgabe beenden wollten, gab es einen Überraschungsbesuch aus England. Duncan McGregor, seines Zeichens Chefvor- führer des berühmten Pictureville Cinema in Bradford, nutzte seinen Urlaub in Deutsch- land zu einer Stippvisite bei der Laser Hotline in Korntal. Eigentlich logisch, dass es da nicht nur bei einer Stippvisite blieb, wo man sich doch soviel Neues aus der Welt des Films im Speziellen und der Kinotechnik im Besonderen zu erzählen hatte. Und unser Heimkino hatte es ihm ganz offensichtlich angetan. Der Sound gefiel dem Spezialisten so gut, dass er immer mehr sehen und vor allem hören wollte. Dieser Wunsch wurde ihm natürlich nicht verweigert. So kam es, dass der Newsletter etwas auf der Strecke blieb. Der Experte beim Hörtest: unser Heimkino ist jetzt Einer unserer Geheimtipps liefert dieses Mal „Duncan“-approved! das Titelbild für den aktuellen Newsletter. Wer DER KNOCHENMANN im Kino verpasst hat, der darf sich jetzt bereits auf September freuen. Denn dann wird Josef Bierbichler als Inhaber eines österreichischen Landgasthofes weiter sein Unwesen auf DVD treiben. -

ÉDITO LE FESTIVAL DE TOUS LES CINÉMAS our sa 47e édition, le festival évolue tout en étant fidèle à son identité visuelle très identifiée, grâce aux magnifiques affiches peintes depuis 1991 par Stanislas Bouvier, qui s’est inspiré cette année de Little Big Man. Le festival change de nom. En substituant « Cinéma » à « film », le PFestival La Rochelle Cinéma (FEMA) réaffirme sa singularité et va à l’essentiel. Au-delà du 7e art, le mot cinéma désigne aussi la salle de projection, que nous fréquentons assidûment et que nous nous devons de défendre et de réinventer pour qu’elle demeure le lieu de (re)découverte des films. L’actualité de ces derniers mois nous a prouvé qu’il existe un besoin de se ras- sembler, d’échanger. Quoi de mieux qu’un festival pour se rencontrer ? Quoi de mieux que le cinéma pour déchiffrer l’état du monde ? Les films comme de multiples points de vue sur notre humanité. À commencer par notre film d’ouverture, It Must Be Heaven, dont le titre, quand nous connais- sons l’univers d’Elia Suleiman, paraît bien ironique. Il s’y met en scène avec son dito regard étonné et souvent amusé, dans un monde dévoré par la violence. La force É de son cinéma tient à la composition de ces plans séquences, qui font d’un détail —— tout un symbole. Quand il pose sa caméra place des Victoires à Paris, en direction de la Banque de France devant laquelle défilent lentement des chars de combat, tout est dit. Cette violence, Arthur Penn la dénonçait déjà en 1967 notamment dans Bonnie and Clyde avec la célèbre réplique « we rob banks » (nous dévalisons des banques) et le massacre final filmé au ralenti. -
Adapting a Literary Nation to Film: National Identity, Neoromanticism and the Anxiety of Influence
Adapting a Literary Nation to Film: National Identity, Neoromanticism and the Anxiety of Influence BJÖRN ÆGIR NORÐFJÖRÐ ABSTRACT: This essay addresses the interrelations of film and literature in the Icelandic context by focusing primarily on two case studies. The first regards an early twentieth-century group of Neoromantic writers, commonly known as the Varangians, whose plays and novels provided the narrative material for the first fiction features set in Iceland. The second addresses the conspicuous lack of adaptations made from either the medieval sagas or the work of Iceland’s most celebrated novelist, Halldór Laxness. It is argued that this lack stems from the high regard in which literature, and these works in particular, is held in Iceland—suggestive of a certain anxiety in tackling its literary heritage. Ultimately, the two case studies point towards the strong ties between literature and national identity. As a result Icelandic cinema has swayed aberrantly from an overt reliance on literature to attempts at distancing itself from it. According to the essay, both strategies are characteristic of filmmaking in a nation whose national identity privileges language and literature. RÉSUMÉ: Cet essai s’intéresse aux interrelations du film et de la littérature dans le contexte islandais en se concentrant d’abord sur deux études de cas. La première étude concerne un groupe d’auteurs néoromantiques du début du vingtième siècle, les Varègues, dont les pièces et les romans ont fourni le matériel narratif des premiers longs-métrages islandais. La deuxième s’intéresse au manque évident d’adaptations inspirées de sagas médiévales ou de l’oeuvre du plus célèbre romancier islandais, Halldór Laxness. -

Investigating Nordic Noir
Investigating Nordic Noir By Sofia Alexi A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Victoria University of Wellington 2017 3 Abstract Alexi Sofia, Film Studies, Victoria University of Wellington Abstract of Master’s Thesis, Submitted 10 April 2017: “Investigating Nordic noir” Scandinavian crime films and television series have become popular in recent years. This thesis explores some of the key texts in ‘Nordic noir’ through a discussion of detectives, the environment, and visual style. The emphasis in the project is on textual analysis. The first chapter examines the figures of Wallander and Lund in Wallander and Forbrydelsen respectively. I argue that the conflicts Nordic detectives often have between work and the domestic sphere are an indication of how gender stereotypes are challenged in the Scandinavian crime genre. The second chapter considers the role of the natural and built environments in Nordic noir. Features such as forests and water play a crucial role in Forbrydelsen because of the ways in which they create uncertainty, anticipation, and suspense. The urban spaces of Bron/Broen develop a sense of anonymity that recalls the function of the city in classic film noir. Rather than developing links between Sweden and Denmark, the series suggests that the Øresund bridge that spans the two countries is ultimately a disconnecting, centrifugal force that functions as what Marc Augé would call a ‘non-place’. The final chapter considers the role of colour and light in the films Insomnia and Jar City. My analysis demonstrates that Nordic noir encompasses more than naturalism and realism.
