He’s stubborn and won’t listen to Laura’s advice – though he seems to heed it when the same counsel comes from a male colleague. Thinking he has no other option, Fuller decides to take a security guard hostage in order to get his demands met.

  • Night Moves Instrueret Og Skrevet Af Kelly Reichardt
    ANGEL FILMS PRÆSENTERER Night Moves Instrueret og skrevet af Kelly Reichardt 112 minutter Kontakt:(Peter(Sølvsten(Thomsen,([email protected]( 1 Night Moves Dansk synopsis: En spændingsfyldt fortælling om de tre passionerede miljøaktivister, Josh (Jesse Eisenberg), Dena (Dakota Fanning) og Harmon (Peter Sarsgaard), der sammen planlægger en bombeaktion mod en dæmning. Aktionen lykkes, men ikke uden uforudsete konsekvenser – konsekvenser som skal vise sig at blive skæbnesvanger for de tre aktivister. Josh, Dena og Harmon vender tilbage til deres hverdag i forsøget på at holde lav profil, men begynder hurtigt at mærke det psykiske pres af deres store hemmelighed. Efterhånden som paranoia og mistillid kryber ind i de sammensvornes hoveder, begynder idealismens skyggesider at vise sig. Gennem Kelly Reichardts særegne stil og atmosfære, stiller NIGHT MOVES skarpt på spørgsmålet om, hvorvidt terrorhandlinger kan retfærdiggøres, så længe bevæggrunden herfor er sympatisk, eller om al terror leder til umoralsk fanatisme? Kontakt:(Peter(Sølvsten(Thomsen,([email protected]( 2 NIGHT MOVES ABOUT THE STORY Kelly Reichardt’s suspense thriller NIGHT MOVES follows three passionate environmentalists whose homegrown plot to Blow up a controversial dam unravels into a journey of douBt, paranoia and unintended consequences.

When her car breaks down in Oregon, however, the thin fabric of her financial situation comes apart, and she confronts a series of increasingly dire economic decisions, with far-ranging repercussions for herself and her dog. Wendy and Lucy addresses issues of sympathy and generosity at the edges of American life, revealing the limits and depths of people's duty to each other in tough times. E-MAIL TO THE PRODUCER Neil, how are you today? I enjoyed reading "Wendy and Lucy" and thought I'd send off some random-ish thoughts. Read when you have some time. I like films that show affection (at least some) for all their characters. I imagine that if Kelly delivers this one in her quiet style, she'll be adding powerful dramatic irony to the sadness, alienation and loss that permeate the story. The script could be read simply as a story illustration of that iconic American sound, the train whistle. The soundtrack of mourning. The siren of passing hope in the night that better things wait somewhere, anywhere that is not here, another place we could just maybe start again.

  • Programme Notes
    Programme Notes Monday 28th June 7.30pm First Cow (12A) Set primarily in 1820s Oregon, in the USA’s Pacific Northwest, the charming, beautifully made First Cow follows the exploits of a taciturn cook, Otis ‘Cookie’ Figowitz (John Magaro), and a well-travelled Chinese immigrant seeking his fortune, King-Lu (Orion Lee). After encountering one another in the forest, the two men forge a connection, quickly settling into a routine of quiet, domestic intimacy that is at odds with the brutish manners of the quick-to-anger fur trappers with whom they frequently cross paths. When Cookie learns of the presence of the local governor’s milking cow - the first cow to be brought to the region - the ever entrepreneurial King-Lu comes up with a highly successful business venture in which they collaborate. However, its longevity is perilously reliant upon their illicit milking of the cow in the dead of night. And so, this loose adaptation of the sprawling novel “The Half-Life” - from author Jonathan Raymond, who has co-written the script - offers a careful examination of the early American Dream and the stresses inherent in capitalism, through a lens of gentle masculinity and tender connection. With it, celebrated filmmaker Kelly Reichardt (Meek’s Cutoff, Certain Women) continues to reinvent the western genre. Shot in the square-like 4:3 aspect ratio, the film’s richly textured pictures marry with a clear soundscape of crackling leaves, the rustle of gentle movement, and William Tyler’s restrained score, bringing this story to life with fine detail. There’s a similarly granular approach to costume, set design, and the everyday mundanities of life for travellers on the Oregon Trail.
