  • Bulletin Online 06.2019
    bulletin online 06.2019 Freddy Buache (1924-2019) © Carine Roth / Cinémathèque suisse bulletin online 06.2019 01 Editorial If you need evidence of how busy our worldwide community has been in the first half of this year, read the following pages of this FBO. The high point of the last six months was no doubt the 75th FIAF Congress, which took place at the Casino de Montbenon in Lausanne from 7-13 April 2019. It was one of the best-attended Congresses in the history of FIAF – 462 people were officially registered, and in the end 442 were present. 88 film archives were represented, as well as 60 different countries. The week was full of memorable moments. To name but a few, the impressive opening night at the Olympic Museum, the high-quality debates of the two-day symposium, the presentation ceremony for our esteemed Honorary Members, Jean-Luc Godard’s rare public appearance to receive the 2019 FIAF Award, the once-in-a-lifetime collective Swiss fondue dinner in a sports hall in Penthaz, the introduction of electronic voting (at last!) at the FIAF General Assembly and the election of a new Executive Committee, the closing party in ECAL’s film stu- dio, and the various excursions to wrap up a busy Congress week. The most moving moment of the week was no doubt the warm tribute paid by the hundreds of Congress delegates to our Honorary Members present at the Congress – Roger Smither, David Francis, Vladimir Opela, and, last but not least, Christophe Dupin Freddy Buache, who had organized the two previous FIAF Congresses in Lausanne… in 1954 and 1979! The 94-year-old former Director of the Cinémathèque suisse – the last representative of the first generation of film archivists – attended some of the ses- sions of the Symposium, and was also there to welcome back Jean-Luc Godard to the Cinémathèque, 40 years after the 1979 Congress.

  • Fiction and Newsreel Documentary in Godard's Cinema
    Fiction and Newsreel Documentary in Godard’s Cinema PIETRO GIOVANNOLI DOCUMENTARY AND FICTION. AN EMBLEMATIC LEGEND There is a legend that Godard would have been one of the special guests in the live broadcast of the Moon landing on the First National French channel (ORTF1) and that he would have pretended that the world-wide televised images were just a really convincing fake (“ce direct est un faux”; “ce qu’on voit c’est un film monsieur”).1 These phrases, which presumably were never uttered by Godard—who, in his most violent Marxist-Maoist period, would have been a very unlikely guest for such an event—are nev- ertheless emblematic of the close relationship that Godard’s cinema main- tains with both fiction and documentary or—more specifically to the sub- ject of our volume—to newsreel cinema. A dozen years later the successful mission of the Apollo 11, Godard, guest of Jean-Luis Burgat at the live tap- 1 Guillas 2009, Hansen-Løve 2010. Following Karel 2003: 5, Godard would have expressed his doubts in the “journal de TF1”. – In an interview with A. Fleischer (director of MORCEAUX DE CONVERSATIONS AVEC JEAN-LUC GODARD), when asked if “Le commentaire de Jean-Luc Godard sur la non-vérité de l’homme sur la Lune est-il confirmé?” Fleischer answered “Godard est capable de toutes sortes de provocations, y compris sur des thèmes plus graves. On a parlé même d’une certaine forme de négationnisme chez lui. Dans ce cas, il pourrait en effet nier l’homme sur la Lune, puisque cet homme est américain” (Fleischer 2009).
