  • Bill's Guide to Week Two of the 47Th Annual Chicago International Film
    Bill’s Guide to Week Two of the 47th Annual Chicago International Film Festival By Bill Stamets Special for Films for Two® My recommended films in Week Two (in “must see” order): 1.) Pina: German director Wim Wenders previously profiled Japanese film director Yasujiro Ozu, Japanese fashion designer Yohji Yamamoto and Cuban musicians. His latest documentary introduces cinefiles to the choreography of German avant-gardist Pina Bausch. In his first use of 3-D cinematography, Wenders evokes the volume of the stage, even for performances staged in non-theatrical settings, including a tramway and an escalator. Four different works are presented. Some are revisited via archival 2-D footage. Seeing various versions adds more figurative depth to our appreciation of Bausch's work than the 3-D adds literal depth to our onscreen perception. Bausch's death during the making of the film may have lent an elegiac note to the laudatory interviews with members of her international company Tanztheater Wuppertal. They do not speak on camera during looking-into-the lens portrait sessions. The soundtrack excerpts their comments, apparently recorded off- camera, to underscore their role as voiceless dancers. Wenders channels Bausch's tactile and theoretical grasp of the body as metaphysical material for art. 2.) The Descendants: Alexander Payne (Sideways, About Schmidt, Election, Citizen Ruth) directs George Clooney as Matt King, an Hawaiian lawyer dealing with his wife hospitalized in a coma and their 10-year-old and 17- year-old daughters. Payne and his co-writers start from Kaui Hart Hemmings' 2008 novel for a truly touching male melodrama, as Clooney's character reconciles his mixed emotions about his wife.

  • Saving Mr. Banks
    LAMORINDA WEEKLY | Saving Mr. Banks Published December 18th, 2013 Saving Mr. Banks By Derek Zemrak I went into the press screening of "Saving Mr. Banks" thinking I was going to see a "feel good" Disney holiday movie. But in reality, I got more than a "spoonful of sugar." I saw a solid film with a superior script and superb acting based on the true story about P. L. Travers, the author of "Mary Poppins." The film stars two-time Oscar winner Emma Thompson ("Sense and Sensibility," "Howards End") as the bitter Travers and two-time Oscar winner and Bay Area native Tom Hanks ("Forrest Gump," "Philadelphia") as Walt Disney. Disney's daughters loved the book, "Mary Poppins," and he promised them that one day he would make a "Mary Poppins" movie. Well, sometimes things are not that easy, even if you are Walt Disney. Travers was very protective of the creation of her characters in "Mary Poppins" and she had no desire to have them come to life on the big screen. After 20 years chasing his promise to his daughters, Disney continued to pursue the rights from Travers. When the royalties were drying up, Travers finally agreed under Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures one condition: that she maintain total control of production. As Disney says, "A promise is a promise," and for his daughters he agreed to the terms. Disney did not have any idea what was in store for him and the production crew as they began making "Mary Poppins." Travers was not happy about anything from the script, the music, the animation, to the casting of Dick Van Dyke.

Allison Janney is an actress of to Kenyon College and he directed—they built quite extraordinary skill and magnificent a beautiful new theatre at the college, at presence; she can create a character within Kenyon, and he came to christen it by just a few moments, whether it’s edgy comedy directing the first play in it, so I met—I got to or deep pathos. Everything from The West work with Paul Newman and met Joanne Wing, of course, to American Beauty to the Woodward, and Joanne said, “You should latest film, I, Tonya. This is her life in pictures, let come to the Neighbourhood Playhouse and us just be reminded of that. study acting,” and I said, “Well OK, sure I’ll do that.” And I never even filled out the [Clip plays] application; my good friend Allison Mackie filled out my application and sent it in and I got [Applause] a letter saying, “You are accepted,” and I was like, “I didn’t—“. I don’t know where I would be Allison Janney: That was fun, watching that. My right now if it weren’t for my friends and the God, I’ve been around a little bit! people who believed in me because I think I—I don’t know what my problem was—I think I FS: I think people are pleased you’re here! didn’t know I wanted to be an actor, I didn’t want to commit or say it because I knew what AJ: I’m very pleased I’m here, thank you for a hard life it would be, and so I ended up having me and inviting me to this incredible going to the Neighbourhood Playhouse and evening.
