July 2012 at BFI Southbank 12/31 July 2012 at BFI Southbank Christopher Nolan season The Vanishing Screenplay: Jean-Claude Carrière Masters of Japanese Cinema: Kaneto Shindo & Kozaburo Yoshimura Part Two Patricio Guzmán: The Power of Memory The Aristocracy on TV The Lacey Rituals: Films by Bruce Lacey & Friends Seasons: x Christopher Nolan This season showcases the rapid rise of Christopher Nolan, from his modest debut feature Following (1998) and breakthrough hit Memento (2000) to his current position as a hugely powerful Hollywood director of blockbusters such as Inception (2010) and the hugely anticipated The Dark Knight Rises (2012). x Two Masters of Japanese Cinema: Kaneto Shindo & Kozaburo Yoshimura Part Two Part Two of the season concentrates on Yoshimura’s output from his later years at Daiei in the 1950s and 60s. Shindo’s career as director and writer extended to 2010. He sadly passed away in May 2012 and this season will be the first world retrospective of Shindo’s work. The season will include screenings of Onibaba (1964) and Kuroneko (1968), still arguably Shindo’s best known films in the West. x The Vanishing Screenplay: Jean-Claude Carrière The season focuses on the career of Jean-Claude Carrière - a screenwriter, but also a novelist and essayist, cartoonist and sometime director and actor. His screenplays underpin some of the great international films of the late 20th century (Belle du Jour, 1967; The Tin Drum, 1979 and Cyrano de Bergerac, 1990). x Extended Run: The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoise (Dir Luis Buñuel 1979) NEW PRINT 1-12 July Newly restored for its fortieth anniversary, this sly, slippery comedy of bourgeois manners remains one of the finest achievements of Luis Buñuel’s dazzlingly creative late period. x Patricio Guzmán: The Power of Memory Patricio Guzmán first came to international notice in the late 70s for a renowned documentary trilogy The Battle of Chile which captured an exceptional moment in history through a fertile mix of direct cinema, investigative reportage and political analysis. This season takes a look at his career and includes screenings of The Pinochet Case (2001) and Salvador Allende (2004). x Extended Run: Nostalgia for the Light (Dir Patricio Guzmán 2010) NEW PRINT 13-26 July One of the most fully satisfying films of recent years, Patricio Guzmán’s highly personal documentary improbably combines astronomy, geology, archaeology, history and politics… but to quite extraordinary effect. x The Lacey Rituals: Films by Bruce Lacey & Friends Artist, performer, absurdist and filmmaker Bruce Lacey remains one of Britain’s great eccentrics. This season celebrates the richness and diversity of his output with screenings of rarely screened films and TV shows and the London premiere of The Bruce Lacey Experience by Jeremy Deller and Nick Abrahams. x The Aristocracy on TV From the deferential interview of the 1950s in At Home: Randolph Churchill (1957) to the searching documentary and politically charged drama of the 1960s and beyond (Nancy – A Portrait of Lady Astor 1879 – 1964), this season examines how the aristocracy have been represented on British television over the decades. x Extended Run: Red Desert Il deserto rosso (Dir Michelangelo Antonioni 1964) NEW PRINT 27-31 July (Continues in August) Restored to reveal once more its remarkable use of colour and electronic soundtrack, Antonioni’s study of a woman faltering in a rapidly changing environment was an influential landmark in the development of a modern cinema. Featured Events: Highlights from our events calendar include: x Previews of The Hollow Crown: Henry IV Parts 1 & 2, a major new series of filmed adaptations of four of Shakespeare’s best-loved History plays, commissioned as part of the BBC’s contribution to the Cultural Olympiad, followed by a panel discussion, hosted by executive producer Sam Mendes, with director Richard Eyre and members of the cast on 2 July. x TV Comedy Renaissance: Lucy Lumsden in Conversation on 3 July – Join Lucy Lumsden (BSkyB Head of Comedy and former BBC Head of Comedy) as she discusses what makes comedy on television work along with a separate event previewing two brand new comedies for Sky 1, Moone Boy and Parents followed by a panel discussion with their creators Chris O’Dowd and Sally Phillips. x Happy Hundreth: An Evening with Su on 19 July celebrates the centenary of legendary cinematographer Wolfgang Suschitzky. BAFTA and BFI joins forces to pay tribute with an unmissable survey of Wolfgang’s career across genres: a screening of rare shorts and extracts followed by an onstage interview with the man himself. There will also be a screening of Get Carter (which features Wolfgang’s cinematography) with an introduction by the film’s director Mike Hodges. x The Flipside strand presents a screening of The Games (1969) followed by a Q&A with director Michael Winner on 26 July. This fast-paced 1960s drama of Olympic intrigue sees humble milkman Harry Hayes (Michael Crawford) facing some tough decisions as he prepares for the Marathon event in Rome. Seasons at BFI Southbank: Christopher Nolan BFI Southbank devotes July’s lead season to Christopher Nolan, one of Hollywood’s most powerful and influential directors. It was only 14 years ago that he finished his remarkable debut feature Following (1998) a taut, densely intelligent thriller which effortlessly belies its tiny budget. This lead to his breakthrough hit Memento (2000) that won Nolan widespread acclaim. This astonishingly inventive film has a man (Guy Pearce) determined to fathom the identity of – and then take revenge on his wife’s killer. Trouble is, he has amnesia and can barely retain any information. Critics especially praised the film’s unique, nonlinear narrative structure and it received numerous accolades, including Oscar nominations for Original Screenplay and Film Editing. Two years later, he followed this up with Insomnia (2002), starring Al Pacino, a remake of the 1997 Norwegian film of the same name, about two LA detectives hunting for a girl’s killer in Alaska. In 2005, Nolan pitched an idea for a reboot of the Batman films to Warner Bros, and reinvigorated a tired franchise with Batman Begins by introducing psychological depth (a back-story dealing with Bruce Wayne’s pre-crusading years) and contemporary relevance (Cillian Murphy’s Scarecrow threatens Gotham with a fear toxin). The second film in the trilogy was The Dark Knight in 2008 and concludes with this summer’s blockbuster release, The Dark Knight Rises (in UK cinemas 20 July 2012 and showing at BFI IMAX). The Dark Knight was dark indeed, and delved deep into the anxieties of the post-9/11 world. This time it’s the Joker creating the chaos, and he was superbly played by the late Heath Ledger, who posthumously won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for the role. The Dark Knight Rises takes place 8 years after the events of The Dark Knight, and introduces the characters of Selina Kyle / Catwoman and Bane (portrayed by Anne Hathaway and Tom Hardy, respectively) - two villains from the Batman mythology. In between the Batman films, Nolan wrote and directed The Prestige (2006). Here, rival illusionists (Christian Bale and Hugh Jackman) become outright enemies after a trick in 1890s London goes fatally wrong, and their obsessive efforts to outwit and damage each other last years, allowing the story to cut back and forth in time. Nolan wrote, co-produced and directed 2010’s release Inception which proved that a sci-fi action blockbuster could be intricate, sly and witty, and is arguably Nolan’s most ambitious tale of conflicting narratives yet. Empire magazine rated it five stars in their August 2010 issue and wrote, “it feels like Stanley Kubrick adapting the work of the great sci-fi author William Gibson”. Nolan has created a new type of Hollywood ‘mainstream’: films notable not only for their considerable technical skill but also for their brilliant, complex and playful narrative ingenuity. In association with Media Partner: Two Masters of Japanese Cinema: Kaneto Shindo & Kozaburo Yoshimura In the second part of a two-month retrospective, BFI Southbank presents a selection of later films directed by Yoshimura and Shindo. In the late 1950s and early 1960s, Yoshimura continued to explore his traditional theme of female experience in a changing Japan. While Shindo scripted many of his films, he also worked with other writers, including Yoshikata Yoda, whose script for Osaka Story had been left unrealised by Kenji Mizoguchi at his death. After leaving Daiei, Yoshimura made some films independently, including his final work, The Tattered Banner (1974). Though he lived for another quarter of a century, no more films were to follow. He died in 2000 in Kyoto, the city that had provided inspiration for much of his finest work. Shindo’s career as director and writer, by contrast, extended to 2010. He sadly passed away in May 2012. From the 1960s, he shifted focus from the realism and explicit political commentary of his earlier work towards a greater stylisation. With Onibaba and Kuroneko, still arguably his best known films in the West, he produced two of the seminal works of Japanese horror, and revealed a new concern with sexual themes. This interest in the erotic is one of the central strands of Shindo’s later work, while other recurring themes include a focus on the lives of artists and, naturally enough for a director who was still active in his 80s and 90s, a concern with the ageing process. All these strands are represented in the selection of films screened during July, which span the period stretching from the 1960s to the 21st century representing the last links to the Golden Age of Japanese film. The Vanishing Screenplay: Jean-Claude Carrière The contribution of the writer is often overlooked in cinema, yet it’s inseparable from the creative process of filmmaking.

    1 ED MILIBAND THE ANDREW MARR SHOW 28TH JUNE 2020 ED MILIBAND MP Shadow Business Secretary (Rough transcript, check against delivery) AM: Welcome Mr Miliband. Was it right that Rebecca Long-Bailey was sacked? EM: It was. It’s important to explain why, because Rebecca is a very decent person, but the reason why there was a problem – the Maxine Peake interview, so the original interview Rebecca then tweeted, is not that it had a criticism of the state of Israel. I’m a big critic of what the Israeli government has done on a number of occasions. Instead it was a false criticism of the state of Israel linked – or rather, the Israeli Defence Force – linked to the death of George Floyd, wrongly, saying that somehow the tactics that killed George Floyd had been learnt from the Israelis. Let me explain why this is an important point. And the problem is that over the centuries when calamitous things have happened Jews have been blamed. And that’s why there was an anti-Semitism issue in that – in relation to this. And that’s why I believe Keir took the right decision. AM: Do you think that Rebecca Long-Bailey understood that? Do you think that she is anti-Semitic? EM: No, I don’t think she is anti-Semitic. I think she made a significant error of judgement. I know Rebecca well. I think she’s a decent person. But let me tell you what this underlines. This underlines the fact that Keir recognises the gravity of the hurt that has been caused to the Jewish community over the last few years by our failure to deal properly with issues of anti-Semitism.

  • Shakespeare on Film, Video & Stage
    William Shakespeare on Film, Video and Stage Titles in bold red font with an asterisk (*) represent the crème de la crème – first choice titles in each category. These are the titles you’ll probably want to explore first. Titles in bold black font are the second- tier – outstanding films that are the next level of artistry and craftsmanship. Once you have experienced the top tier, these are where you should go next. They may not represent the highest achievement in each genre, but they are definitely a cut above the rest. Finally, the titles which are in a regular black font constitute the rest of the films within the genre. I would be the first to admit that some of these may actually be worthy of being “ranked” more highly, but it is a ridiculously subjective matter.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced info the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on untii complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.
