  • Pietro Scalia

    Pietro Scalia

    Pietro Scalia Pietro Scalia werd op 17 maart 1960 geboren in Catania. Terwijl hij binnen de Amerikaanse film actief was vermengde hij tijden van filmmontage met de visuele en geluidsritmes van andere moderne media (videoclips, nieuws, digitaal) daarbij de natuurlijkheid benadrukkend van het acteerspel van de acteurs en in zijn vak een bewustere blik introducerend die dicht(er)bij het gezichtspunt van de regie ligt. Hij werd opgeleid in de werkgroep van Oliver Stone en werkte vervolgens voornamelijk samen met Ridley Scott. Hij won twee Oscars, in 1992 (samen met Joe Hutshing) voor Stone's JFK (1991; JFK - A Case Still Open) en 2002 voor Scott's Black hawk down (2001) en twee nominaties, in 1998 voor Good Will Hunting (1997) van Gus Van Sante en in 2001 voor Scott's Gladiator (2000). Hij won ook twee keer de BAFTA Award en drie keer de Eddie Award, uitgereikt door American Cinema Editors. Op éénjarige leeftijd verhuisde hij met zijn familie naar Zwitserland, waar hij zijn basis- en middelbare school volgde. In 1978 ging hij naar de Verenigde Staten om film te studeren; na twee jaar aan de State University of New York in Albany volgde hij regie- en productiecursussen aan de University of California in Los Angeles waar hij in 1985 zijn master in Film and Theatre Arts behaalde. Hij maakte zijn filmdebuut als assistent van filmmonteur Alain Jakubowicz in de postproductie van Andrei Michalkov Končalovskij's Shy people (1987). Gefascineerd als hij was door de films van Oliver Stone's voegde hij zich bij diens postproductieteam en werkte zo als assistent van Claire Simpson in Wall Street (1987) en van David Brenner en Joe Hutshing voor Talk radio (1988).

    A Continuation of Myth: the Cinematic Representation of Mythic American Innocence in Bernardo Bertolucci’S Last Tango in Paris and the Dreamers

    A CONTINUATION OF MYTH: THE CINEMATIC REPRESENTATION OF MYTHIC AMERICAN INNOCENCE IN BERNARDO BERTOLUCCI’S LAST TANGO IN PARIS AND THE DREAMERS Joanna Colangelo A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of The requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS December 2007 Committee: Carlo Celli, Advisor Philip Hardy ii ABSTRACT Carlo Celli, Advisor The following thesis aims to track the evolution and application of certain fundamental American cultural mythologies across international borders. While the bulk of my discussion will focus on the cycle of mythic American innocence, I will pay fair attention to the sub-myths which likewise play vital roles in composing the broad myth of American innocence in relation to understanding American identities – specifically, the myth of the Virgin West (or America-as-Eden), the yeoman farmer and individualism. When discussing the foundation of cultural American mythologies, I draw specifically from the traditional myth-symbol writers in American Studies. Those works which I reference are: Henry Nash Smith’s, Virgin Land: The American West as Symbol and Myth, Leo Marx’s, The Machine in the Garden: Technology and the Pastoral Ideal in America and R.W.B. Lewis’s, The American Adam: Innocence, Tragedy, and Tradition in the Nineteenth Century. I focus much of my discussion on the applicability of the myth of innocence, rather than the validity of the actual myth throughout history. In this sense, I follow the myth as a cycle of innocence lost and regained in American culture – as an ideal which can never truly reach its conclusion for as long as America is invested in two broad definitions of innocence: the American Adam and the Noble Savage.
  • FILM REVIEW Moonlight, Directed by Barry Jenkins, USA, Altitude Films

    FILM REVIEW Moonlight, Directed by Barry Jenkins, USA, Altitude Films

    INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF JUNGIAN STUDIES, 2018 VOL. 10, NO. 1, 83–89 FILM REVIEW Moonlight, directed by Barry Jenkins, USA, Altitude Films, 2016, 1 hour 55 minutes Spring is often synonymous with Oscar season, but it is some considered reflection on the 2017 Best Picture that is necessary one year on. If it is news to you that Moonlight won the Oscar last year, then you are not alone. It is certainly among the least-marketed Oscar winners in recent decades. If you do know about the film, it is likely that it is in the context of its two-way fight for the prize with another more popular film, or perhaps from news coverage of a dramatic mishap on Oscars’ night. The film was the modern musical La La Land and the mix-up was the result of the wrong envelope being given and that the film’s name being read out instead of the winner Moonlight. A male employee from PricewaterhouseCooper’s – who administer the envelopes – is thought to have mistakenly given a duplicate Best Actress envelope (already won by Emma Stone for La La Land) to Warren Beatty. In a familiar commentary on the expectations social media places on creative industries personnel, it is possible the employee, Brian Cullinan, could have been distracted by his Tweeted picture of Stone moments before handing over the envelope. The event overshadowed much mainstream serious discussion of the film and did little to tempt staunch supporters of La La Land to see it. There are films that are designed to win Oscars and appeal to the middle-range, but it is difficult to suggest Moonlight is one of them, even with some of its missed opportunities to push the envelope of homosexual encoun- ters than those previously seen on mainstream US silver screens.

    International Casting Directors Network Index

    International Casting Directors Network Index 01 Welcome 02 About the ICDN 04 Index of Profiles 06 Profiles of Casting Directors 76 About European Film Promotion 78 Imprint 79 ICDN Membership Application form Gut instinct and hours of research “A great film can feel a lot like a fantastic dinner party. Actors mingle and clash in the best possible lighting, and conversation is fraught with wit and emotion. The director usually gets the bulk of the credit. But before he or she can play the consummate host, someone must carefully select the right guests, send out the invites, and keep track of the RSVPs”. ‘OSCARS: The Role Of Casting Director’ by Monica Corcoran Harel, The Deadline Team, December 6, 2012 Playing one of the key roles in creating that successful “dinner” is the Casting Director, but someone who is often over-looked in the recognition department. Everyone sees the actor at work, but very few people see the hours of research, the intrinsic skills, the gut instinct that the Casting Director puts into finding just the right person for just the right role. It’s a mix of routine and inspiration which brings the characters we come to love, and sometimes to hate, to the big screen. The Casting Director’s delicate work as liaison between director, actors, their agent/manager and the studio/network figures prominently in decisions which can make or break a project. It’s a job that can't garner an Oscar, but its mighty importance is always felt behind the scenes. In July 2013, the Academy of Motion Pictures of Arts and Sciences (AMPAS) created a new branch for Casting Directors, and we are thrilled that a number of members of the International Casting Directors Network are amongst the first Casting Directors invited into the Academy.
  • The Forgiving Blue

    The Forgiving Blue

    THE FORGIVING BLUE Lynn Fong nterspersed in the gentle lapping of ocean waves, a few tense notes of a violin crescendo as Chiron, the protagonist of Barry Jenkins’s film Moonlight , learns to swim. The water is a soft turquoise. The camera bobs along with it, pulled up and down Iand sometimes partially obscured by the waves. We, the audience, are right there with little Chiron as he experiences the waters of Miami for the first time. Juan, Chiron’s newfound, unlikely mentor, is hold - ing up Chiron’s small head while he teaches him to float. “You’re in the middle of the world,” Juan tells Chiron. The two are framed only by the turquoise water and a light blue sky. Juan demonstrates arm movements: “Go like this,” he instructs, “more athletic.” Chiron mimics him as he learns to paddle. Finally, Juan releases Chiron so he can swim on his own. “Go,” Juan says, and Chiron begins paddling by himself. Then, Chiron is alone. The music slows and fades away. He is indeed in the middle of the world as he swims, unaccompanied, unafraid, and free. Moonlight , which won the Academy Award for Best Picture in 2017, is a coming-of-age story. More specifically, it documents three stages in the life of Chiron, a young, gay black man growing up in an impoverished area of Miami. Even more specifically, the film offers an empathetic lens into the most intimate, defining moments of Chiron’s life: learning how to swim, putting a blanket on his drugged- out mother, reuniting with someone he’s loved after years of estrange - ment.

    CELEBRATING FORTY YEARS of FILMS WORTH TALKING ABOUT 39 Years, 2 Months, and Counting…

    5 JAN 18 1 FEB 18 1 | 5 JAN 18 - 1 FEB 18 88 LOTHIAN ROAD | FILMHOUSECinema.COM CELEBRATING FORTY YEARS OF FILMS WORTH TALKING ABOUT 39 Years, 2 Months, and counting… As you’ll spot deep within this programme (and hinted at on the front cover) January 2018 sees the start of a series of films that lead up to celebrations in October marking the 40th birthday of Filmhouse as a public cinema on Lothian Road. We’ve chosen to screen a film from every year we’ve been bringing the very best cinema to the good people of Edinburgh, and while it is tremendous fun looking back through the history of what has shown here, it was quite an undertaking going through all the old programmes and choosing what to show, and a bit of a personal journey for me as one who started coming here as a customer in the mid-80s (I know, I must have started very young...). At that time, I’d no idea that Filmhouse had only been in existence for less than 10 years – it seemed like such an established, essential institution and impossible to imagine it not existing in a city such as Edinburgh. My only hope is that the cinema is as important today as I felt it was then, and that the giants on whose shoulders we currently stand feel we’re worthy of their legacy. I hope you can join us for at least some of the screenings on this trip down memory lane... And now, back to the now.

  • Silent Films of Alfred Hitchcock

    Silent Films of Alfred Hitchcock

    The Hitchcock 9 Silent Films of Alfred Hitchcock Justin Mckinney Presented at the National Gallery of Art The Lodger (British Film Institute) and the American Film Institute Silver Theatre Alfred Hitchcock’s work in the British film industry during the silent film era has generally been overshadowed by his numerous Hollywood triumphs including Psycho (1960), Vertigo (1958), and Rebecca (1940). Part of the reason for the critical and public neglect of Hitchcock’s earliest works has been the generally poor quality of the surviving materials for these early films, ranging from Hitchcock’s directorial debut, The Pleasure Garden (1925), to his final silent film, Blackmail (1929). Due in part to the passage of over eighty years, and to the deterioration and frequent copying and duplication of prints, much of the surviving footage for these films has become damaged and offers only a dismal representation of what 1920s filmgoers would have experienced. In 2010, the British Film Institute (BFI) and the National Film Archive launched a unique restoration campaign called “Rescue the Hitchcock 9” that aimed to preserve and restore Hitchcock’s nine surviving silent films — The Pleasure Garden (1925), The Lodger (1926), Downhill (1927), Easy Virtue (1927), The Ring (1927), Champagne (1928), The Farmer’s Wife (1928), The Manxman (1929), and Blackmail (1929) — to their former glory (sadly The Mountain Eagle of 1926 remains lost). The BFI called on the general public to donate money to fund the restoration project, which, at a projected cost of £2 million, would be the largest restoration project ever conducted by the organization. Thanks to public support and a $275,000 dona- tion from Martin Scorsese’s The Film Foundation in conjunction with The Hollywood Foreign Press Association, the project was completed in 2012 to coincide with the London Olympics and Cultural Olympiad.
