(photo credit:Courtesy) The 17th TLV International Student Film Festival, which opens today and runs until June 6 at the Tel Aviv Cinematheque, is different from all the other film festivals in Israel because “it was initiated by the students of Tel Aviv University, and its prime goal is to bring students and their films from all over the world to Israel,” says Talia Bernstein, who, along with Roni Shamis, is the festival’s co-director. Founded in 1986, the festival was held every other year until 2012, when, according to Bernstein, the volume of high- quality submissions convinced its management that it should be held every year. “Students from around the world needed this platform to show their work,” she says. This year, approximately 200 films (most of them short) from 70 countries will be shown, many of them the work of the festival’s 100 international student guests. converted by Web2PDFConvert.com “There are the competitions, for the Israeli films and the international films, and those are always very exciting,” Bernstein says. “Our festival is known in the film industry as a place to discover new directors.” A number of Israel’s most prominent directors won prizes in the festival when they were students, she says, among them Dover Kosashvili (best known for A Late Wedding), Nir Bergman (Yona, Broken Wings), Maya Dreifuss (She’s Coming Home) and Elad Keidan (whose latest film, Afterthought, was just screened at Cannes this year). The list of international directors who showed their student films at the festival is equally impressive, among them Francois Ozon, one of France’s leading directors, who has made such films as Swimming Pool, 8 Women and Young & Beautiful, and Thomas Vinterberg, best known for The Celebration and The Hunt. An important component of the festival is the collaboration between the student filmmakers, both Israeli and foreign, and veteran filmmakers from Israel and abroad. “The festival is an educational event and we are proud of it,” says Bernstein. “All our guests teach master classes and also meet students at the Q&A sessions after the screenings of their films.” Among the festival’s many guests this year is the unofficial godfather of American independent cinema, Hal Hartley. “He’s amazing, one of the pioneers in the US of independent cinema. He manages to keep making great films and keep a strong vision and cinematic style,” says Bernstein. Several of his early films will be screened at the festival, including Trust (1990), which stars the late Adrienne Shelly and Martin Donovan; Amateur (1994), with Isabelle Huppert; and Flirt (1995), with Michael Imperioli (who played Chris on The Sopranos). Henry Fool (1998), the first part in his recently completed trilogy – the other films in it are Fay Grim and Ned Rifle – will also be screened at the festival. The festival features dozens of other guests from around the world, among them native son turned Hollywood producer Ram Bergman, who recently produced Natalie Portman’s directorial debut, an adaptation of Amos Oz’s A Tale of Love and Darkness; American film editor Dylan Tichenor; Mexican director Michel Franco; American producer Effie T. Brown; and television writer-producer Kate Barnow. The festival will feature special screenings of the work of all its guests. The screenings and classes are open to the general public. Although many may think this festival is only for students, Bernstein says that an afternoon or evening spent watching movies at the festival will be enjoyable for everyone. “It’s a great experience to watch a new films from all over the world for an hour and a half,” says Bernstein.

  • Fay Grim' Hal Hartley Takes Familiar Faces in a Totally Different Direction
    MOVIE REVIEW 'Fay Grim' Hal Hartley takes familiar faces in a totally different direction. By Kevin Crust Times Staff Writer May 18, 2007 Hal Hartley's dark comedy "Henry Fool" was an indie masterpiece that effectively and accessibly meshed Hartley's literary influences with his specific minimalist style and some of the most memorable characters of the last decade. Now, Hartley takes the characters he created for that world and launches them into a surprisingly different direction in "Fay Grim," a worthy follow-up and rare art house sequel. "Fool," released in 1998, was a leap forward for Hartley, building on his quirkier early work and taking it to a more substantial place. Featuring stage actors James Urbaniak and Thomas Jay Ryan as Simon Grim and Henry Fool, respectively, the film turned on the awakening of garbage man Simon's hidden poetic talents that bloomed under the urging of the Faustian drifter, Henry, whose lowly status and appearance belied his epic braggadocio. The Beckettesque duo, along with Parker Posey as Simon's sister Fay, who becomes the title character in the new movie, gave physical life to Hartley's complex and unabashedly intelligent characters. When we last saw our antiheroes, Simon had won the Nobel Prize for his profane and controversial poetry, Henry had fled murder charges by allegedly going to Stockholm using Simon's passport, and Fay was left with a young son after Henry had impregnated and married her seven years earlier. The handwritten, multipart opus Henry had been flouting, "The Confessions of Henry Fool," was largely thought to be a horrible novel, literary excrement perpetuated by a vulgar man with a vivid imagination.

  • Marginality and the Films of Hal Hartley
    The Repetition of Difference: Marginality and the Films of Hal Hartley NEWCAOTLE UNIVErOITY LIDRAfY 200 13901 0 'The\ Lb8L,Jo Lesley Deer PhD Thesis September 2000 Centre for Research into Film The University of Newcastle upon Tyne But you know, everyone really only makes one film in his life, and then he breaks it up into fragments and makes it again with just a few little variations each time. Jean Renoir' 'From preface to Flirt screenplay (Hartley 1996: vii). ACKNOWLEDGEMENT I wish gratefully to acknowledge the Arts and Humanities Research Board of the British Academy for assisting the production of this thesis with a Postgraduate Studentship. Thank you to my supervisor, Prof Phil Powrie, for keeping me on track, to Prof. Keith Reader for mentoring my teaching, and to all of the staff connected to the University of Newcastle upon Tyn&s Centre for Research into Film. Thanks also go to Paul Bishenden, Mike Heath, Celia Shephard, and my family, for their help and support. ABSTRACT THE REPETITION OF DIFFERENCE: MARGINALITY AND THE FILMS OF HAL HARTLEY Hal Hartley is prominent within the recent rise of the independent film-making movement in America. This thesis is centred around the issues of repetition, difference and marginality which characterise his films. Marginality inhabits Hartley's position as an American independent who makes a European art-house style of film. He is an auteur who articulates his influences through his reference to Godard. Marginality is also the dominant characteristic of those who people Hartley's films. Difference, which is marginality pushed to its greatest extent, is further imposed upon Hartley's characters.

  • Un Film Écrit Et Réalisé Par Hal Hartley Bill Sage Sabrina Lloyd Tatiana Abracos
    un film écrit bill sage et réalisé par sabrina lloyd hal hartley tatiana abracos Après des semaines de tournage dans un New York glacial, Hal Hartley vient d’achever son dernier long-métrage, The Girl From Monday, à Puerto Rico, le 3 février 2004. Hartley décrit son film comme étant «un faux film de science-fiction sur la façon dont nous vivons aujourd'hui » et met à l’affiche Sabrina Lloyd (Sports Night, Dopamine) Bill Sage (Even Hand, The Maldonado Miracle and Greg Araki’s Mysterious Skin) Leo Fitzpatrick (Storytelling, Bully, Personal Velocity) et la top modèle brésilienne Tatiana Abracos dans le rôle titre. Récit sans concession d’amitié, de sacrifice et d’amour libre à l’âge de l’information, The Girl From Monday montre les tensions d’une société de consommation sans limite et son impact sur la sexualité, la paranoïa anti-terroriste et la difficulté à distinguer des dirigeants élus de dirigeants d’entreprise. Lors d’une interview donnée sur le tournage, Hal Hartley déclarait : Oui, beaucoup de sujets sont abordés. Mais c'est surtout un jeu sur les tendances contemporaines, sur la façon dont la technologie, le consumérisme, la politique nous influencent. Synopsis Une fille venue de l’espace tombe dans Contre-Révolution, dont les partisans per- l’océan.

Palavras-chave: Hal Hartley; cinema independente americano; x generation ; alegorismo, crítica de cinema. 1. A x generation do cinema americano Quando em 1984 o diretor americano Jim Jarmusch recebe do Festival de Cannes o reconhecimento por Stranger than paradise (Estranhos no paraíso, 1984), seu debut , o ato se torna a representação do que se iniciava e se prolongaria com força no cinema independente dos EUA, a chamada Gen-X4, The New Outsiders 5, e outras nomeações. Mais especificamente se discute o surgimento de vários cineastas que trabalham em suas narrativas a questão central do jovem americano no contexto da política de neoliberalismo, com a qual o mundo começa a experimentar finda a utopia socialista e com a premeditada derrubada do muro de Berlim.

  • Hal Hartley's
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE HAL HARTLEY’S “MY AMERICA” TO DEBUT EXCULSIVELY ON FANDOR THIS JULY 4th SAN FRANCISCO (JUNE 18, 2014) – Fandor announced today that the streaming service will exclusively host the world premiere of MY AMERICA, the latest feature film from renowned filmmaker, Hal Hartley on Fandor this July 4th. Fandor is fostering a community of filmmakers and film enthusiasts online and throughout the world. With the debut of MY AMERICA, Fandor continues to provide unique and original films to wider audiences through its subscription streaming service. Earlier this month, Fandor debuted Agnieszka Holland’s critically acclaimed BURNING BUSH day-and-date with its theatrical run in New York City at Film Forum. Originally commissioned by Centerstage (the State Theater of Maryland), MY AMERICA is comprised of twenty-one inventively staged monologues by leading American playwrights; the film addresses the variety and complexity of America’s current anxieties. The debut of this new work by Hartley reflects both Fandor’s mission to offer new films from the most exciting cinematic voices but also marks another collaboration with long-time colleague Ted Hope, celebrated producer and Fandor CEO. “I owe a large part of both my career and critical eye to Hal Hartley,” said Hope, “So it is a true joy to host the exclusive premiere of Hal’s latest film.” “Working with some of our best playwrights, Hal gets at the core of NOW,” continued Hope, “And like every thing Hal has done, MY AMERICA is bold, funny, insightful, and formally daring — and isn’t that what we all always want from OUR America and our filmmakers, actors, and writers? Thankfully we have Hal (and Fandor) to deliver it directly to you.” “It was great to work with such an array of talents - the writers and the actors,” said Hartley.
