  • See It Big! Action Features More Than 30 Action Movie Favorites on the Big
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE ‘SEE IT BIG! ACTION’ FEATURES MORE THAN 30 ACTION MOVIE FAVORITES ON THE BIG SCREEN April 19–July 7, 2019 Astoria, New York, April 16, 2019—Museum of the Moving Image presents See It Big! Action, a major screening series featuring more than 30 action films, from April 19 through July 7, 2019. Programmed by Curator of Film Eric Hynes and Reverse Shot editors Jeff Reichert and Michael Koresky, the series opens with cinematic swashbucklers and continues with movies from around the world featuring white- knuckle chase sequences and thrilling stuntwork. It highlights work from some of the form's greatest practitioners, including John Woo, Michael Mann, Steven Spielberg, Akira Kurosawa, Kathryn Bigelow, Jackie Chan, and much more. As the curators note, “In a sense, all movies are ’action’ movies; cinema is movement and light, after all. Since nearly the very beginning, spectacle and stunt work have been essential parts of the form. There is nothing quite like watching physical feats, pulse-pounding drama, and epic confrontations on a large screen alongside other astonished moviegoers. See It Big! Action offers up some of our favorites of the genre.” In all, 32 films will be shown, many of them in 35mm prints. Among the highlights are two classic Technicolor swashbucklers, Michael Curtiz’s The Adventures of Robin Hood and Jacques Tourneur’s Anne of the Indies (April 20); Kurosawa’s Seven Samurai (April 21); back-to-back screenings of Mad Max: Fury Road and Aliens on Mother’s Day (May 12); all six Mission: Impossible films

  • Cultural Anthropology Through the Lens of Wikipedia: Historical Leader Networks, Gender Bias, and News-Based Sentiment
    Cultural Anthropology through the Lens of Wikipedia: Historical Leader Networks, Gender Bias, and News-based Sentiment Peter A. Gloor, Joao Marcos, Patrick M. de Boer, Hauke Fuehres, Wei Lo, Keiichi Nemoto [email protected] MIT Center for Collective Intelligence Abstract In this paper we study the differences in historical World View between Western and Eastern cultures, represented through the English, the Chinese, Japanese, and German Wikipedia. In particular, we analyze the historical networks of the World’s leaders since the beginning of written history, comparing them in the different Wikipedias and assessing cultural chauvinism. We also identify the most influential female leaders of all times in the English, German, Spanish, and Portuguese Wikipedia. As an additional lens into the soul of a culture we compare top terms, sentiment, emotionality, and complexity of the English, Portuguese, Spanish, and German Wikinews. 1 Introduction Over the last ten years the Web has become a mirror of the real world (Gloor et al. 2009). More recently, the Web has also begun to influence the real world: Societal events such as the Arab spring and the Chilean student unrest have drawn a large part of their impetus from the Internet and online social networks. In the meantime, Wikipedia has become one of the top ten Web sites1, occasionally beating daily newspapers in the actuality of most recent news. Be it the resignation of German national soccer team captain Philipp Lahm, or the downing of Malaysian Airlines flight 17 in the Ukraine by a guided missile, the corresponding Wikipedia page is updated as soon as the actual event happened (Becker 2012.

  • The Vanishing Screenplay: Jean-Claude Carrière at BFI Southbank in July 2012
    12/37 The Vanishing Screenplay: Jean-Claude Carrière at BFI Southbank in July 2012 The contribution of the writer is often overlooked in cinema, yet it’s inseparable from the creative process of filmmaking. This season lauds an ‘invisible giant’ of European cinema, screenwriter Jean-Claude Carrière. He is also a novelist and essayist, cartoonist and sometime director and actor, and has recently collaborated with director Michael Haneke on the script for The White Ribbon (2009) and appeared in Abbas Kiarostami’s Certified Copy (2010). He is probably best known for his working relationship with Luis Buñuel, who both co-scripted most of the titles of the great Spanish director’s French period. Carrière’s films for Buñuel include the erotic psycho-fairytale Belle de Jour (1967), the surreal The Phantom of Liberty (1974) and the deliciously satirical The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie (1972), released in cinemas nationwide on 29 June for its fortieth anniversary by Studiocanal and the ICO. It will also be screened as an extended run as part of the season. BFI Southbank is delighted to announce that Carrière will give an on-stage introduction to a preview screening of The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie on Thursday 28 June. International collaborations for Carrière followed in the late-70s and 80s. These include acclaimed literary adaptations of sprawling and seemingly un- adaptable works for directors like Volker Schlöndorff (The Tin Drum, 1979), and Philip Kaufman (The Unbearable Lightness of Being, 1988) and also his dream- like rendering of Proust in Swann in Love (1984). This last film was co-written with Sir Peter Brook, whose earlier work with Carrière included The Mahabarata and presaged an extended departure from screen to stage writing.
