    Programme du 12 octobre au 8 novembre 2016 Ta’ang, un peuple en exil entre Chine et Birmanie de Wang Bing 3 Édito 26 4 Prochainement à l’affiche À l’affiche Infos pratiques du cinéma et du restaurant 23 15 Horaires des séances Événements Jeune Public 18 Événements SOMMAIRE | 2 | TITRE DE FILM Nous avons l’honneur de recevoir ces prochaines semaines deux très grands cinéastes, très singuliers, à peu près seuls à travailler les territoires qu’ils occupent. Deux cinéastes très différents qui sortent chacun un nouveau film, Wang Bing : Ta’Ang, un peuple en exil entre Chine et Birmanie, et Albert Serra : La Mort de Louis XIV. Wang Bing a suivi l’exode d’une ethnie birmane persécutée sur la frontière chaotique chinoise. Comme souvent Deux cinéastes, dans ses films, Wang Bing dessine ici une géographie ethnographique. Hommes deux territoires et femmes composent sous leurs pas et très singuliers dans leur fuite un paysage furtif. Nous profitons de cette sortie pour vous proposer, dans les prochaines semaines, de découvrir son œuvre à travers une rétrospective. Albert Serra filme l’agonie du roi Louis XIV, à qui le comédien Jean-Pierre Léaud, qui fut à partir des 400 coups l’alter-ego de François Truffaut, prête ses traits. Dans une chambre, de nombreux scientifiques inquiets défilent devant le monarque. De cette cour impuissante à sauver le roi, on pressent la fin d’une croyance, une illusion perdue, une foi en la modernité. Belles séances à tous ! L’équipe du Café des images À L’AFFICHEEDITO | 3 | 3 | À L’OUEST DES RAILS Wang Bing a filmé de 1999 à 2001 la lente agonie des usines et des hommes dans l’effondrement final d’un système obsolète.

  • Press Kit Falling Angels
    Falling Angels A film by Scott Smith Based on the novel by Barbara Gowdy With Miranda Richardson Callum Keith Rennie Katherine Isabelle RT : 101 minutes 1 Short Synopsis It is 1969 and seventeen year old Lou Field and her sisters are ready for change. Tired of enduring kiddie games to humour a Dad desperate for the occasional shred of family normalcy, the Field house is a place where their Mom’s semi-catatonic state is the result of a tragic event years before they were born. But as the autumn unfolds, life is about to take a turn. This is the year that Lou and her sisters are torn between the lure of the world outside and the claustrophobic world of the Field house that can no longer contain the girls’ restless adolescence. A story of a calamitous family trying to function, Falling Angels is a story populated by beautiful youthful rebels and ill-equipped parents coping with the draw of a world in turmoil beyond the boundaries of home and a manicured lawn. 2 Long Synopsis Treading the fine line between adolescence and adulthood, the Field sisters have all but declared war on their domineering father. Though Jim Field (Genie and Gemini winner Callum Keith Rennie ) runs the family house like a military camp, it’s the three teenaged daughters who really run the show and baby-sit their fragile mother Mary, (Two-time Oscar ® nominee Miranda Richardson) as she quietly sits on the couch and quells her anxiety with whiskey. It’s 1969 and beneath suburbia’s veneer of manicured lawns and rows of bungalows, the world faces explosive social change.

  • Popularization in Fiennes's Coriolanus
    Journal of Student Writing Number 35 Sight, Sound, and News: Popularization in Fiennes’s Coriolanus Tilly Jackson he genre of Shakespeare on film has caused much controversy over the years, with film critics and academics at once decrying it as “de- T volution of Shakespeare” (Boose and Burt 18) and applauding it as a “site for innovation in the style, substance, and practice of modern per- formance” (Worthen 2). Over the past 25 years or so, however, this genre has proven itself all the more controversial by popularization, the tech- nique of modernizing Shakespeare and casting movie stars instead of trained Shakespearean stage actors in an effort to break new ground with the centuries-old playtexts as well as bring the classic works to a larger, younger audience. This has been called the “Hollywoodization of Shake- speare in the 1990s” (Boose and Burt 8). Perhaps the most striking popu- larized film adaptations of Shakespeare’s works are the tragedies, recon- structed into sweeping epics with distinctly modern twists. Radical exam- ples include Baz Luhrmann’s media-filled William Shakespeare’s Romeo + Juliet (1996) and Al Pacino’s theatre documentary, Looking for Richard (1996). Discussing such films in A Companion to Shakespeare’s Works, Mark Thornton Burnett remarks that [...] contemporary versions of the tragedies contemplate the burdens of textuality and meditate self-consciously upon their own existence. At the same time, they push at the boundaries of the Shakespearean, feeding from their immediate contexts and from each other in generically variegated, visually arresting, technically versatile, and media-fashioned realizations of the dramatic originals.

    Religious Studies 181B Political Islam and the Response of Iranian Cinema Fall 2012 Wednesdays 5‐7:50 PM HSSB 3001E PROFESSOR JANET AFARY Office: HSSB 3047 Office Hours; Wednesday 2:00‐3:00 PM E‐Mail: [email protected] Assistant: Shayan Samsami E‐Mail: [email protected] Course Description Artistic Iranian Cinema has been influenced by the French New Wave and Italian neorealist styles but has its own distinctly Iranian style of visual poetry and symbolic lanGuaGe, brinGinG to mind the delicate patterns and intricacies of much older Iranian art forms, the Persian carpet and Sufi mystical poems. The many subtleties of Iranian Cinema has also stemmed from the filmmakers’ need to circumvent the harsh censorship rules of the state and the financial limitations imposed on independent filmmakers. Despite these limitations, post‐revolutionary Iranian Cinema has been a reGular feature at major film festivals around the Globe. The minimalist Art Cinema of Iran often blurs the borders between documentary and fiction films. Directors employ non‐professional actors. Male and female directors and actors darinGly explore the themes of Gender inequality and sexual exploitation of women in their work, even thouGh censorship laws forbid female and male actors from touchinG one another. In the process, filmmakers have created aesthetically sublime metaphors that bypass the censors and directly communicate with a universal audience. This course is an introduction to contemporary Iranian cinema and its interaction with Political Islam. Special attention will be paid to how Iranian Realism has 1 developed a more tolerant discourse on Islam, culture, Gender, and ethnicity for Iran and the Iranian plateau, with films about Iran, AfGhanistan, and Central Asia.
