Sinema sanatının seslendiği seyirci kitleleri ile eleştiri kurumu arasına kalın bir duvar örme gayreti güden bu yaklaşımın günümüzde yankılanan biçimleri arasında, “Halk beğendiyse, eleştirmenler beğenmez!” ya da tam tersi, “Eleştirmenler beğendiyse, kimse gitmez o filme!” yargılarının olduğunu da gayet iyi biliyoruz. Oysa köşelerini, bazı yönetmenler ve filmleri ile seyircilerin ve eleştirmenlerin oluşturduğu öyle sağlam üçgenler kurulmuş ki yedinci sanatın geçmişinde, söz ettiğim türden yaygın ve yanılgın iddiaların tümü bir çırpıda havada kalıyor, sonra da adeta tuzla buz oluyor.

En 1941 comienza una intensa actividad de guionista: su nombre aparece en los títulos de películas de gran relieve, como "Roma ciudad abierta (Roma città aperta)" (1945), "Paisa (Paisà)" (1946), "Sin piedad (Senza pietà)" (1948) y "Europa 1951 (Europa 51)" (1952). Debuta como director junto a Alberto Lattuada con "Luci del varietà" (1951), un melancólico retrato del mundo del teatro itinerante. Su próxima obra es "El Jeque blanco (Lo sceicco bianco)" (1952), escrita con Ennio Flaiano y Tullio Pinelli, en la cual se aparta de la tradición neorrealista delineando personajes que oscilan entre Fellini lo fantástico y lo irónico. Al año siguiente, "Los inútiles (I Vitelloni)" (1953) le vale un León de Plata en Venecia además de un gran éxito de público y de crítica. Es un filme de matriz autobiográfica, en el cual Fellini vuelve a su provincia natal con una sensación híbrida de nostalgia y repulsión. Los años siguientes están constelados de triunfos: la límpida poesía de "La strada" (1954) lleva a sus manos un merecido Óscar, y otro más le procura con su intensidad "Las noches de Cabiria (Le notti di Cabiria "(1957), ambas engalanadas por las magníficas interpretaciones de su mujer, Giulietta Masina.

  • Amedeo Nazzari and National Melodramatic Masculinity
    Maria Elena D’Amelio ‘The ideal man’. Amedeo Nazzari and national melodramatic masculinity In 1939 the film magazine Cinema organized a survey among its read- ers, to establish who was the most popular actor in Italy. Amedeo Nazzari came in first with 19,020 votes, widely surpassing the other candidates, such as Fosco Giachetti and Vittorio De Sica1. Nazzari, born in Sardinia in 1907, had just achieved enormous success with two films directed by Goffredo Alessandrini, Cavalleria (1936) and Luciano Serra pilota (1938). With the latter Nazzari had also won the Coppa Mussolini at the Venice Film Festival in 1938. Due to the popularity of these films in Fascist Italy, with their themes of masculine heroism and war sacrifice, the result of the 1939 survey wasn’t that surprising. More surprising was a 1982 poll organized by the TV show Flash which asked its spectators to choose a individual from the past who would represent their ‘ideal man’. The result was again Amedeo Nazzari, who surpassed international stars such as Tyrone Power, media icons such John F. Kennedy, and popular histor- ical heroes like Garibaldi. In 1982, three years after his death, Nazzari still embodied a summa of the highest values of Italian masculinity in the collective imaginary. The longevity of Nazzari’s stardom in Italian cinema serves as a site to explore the link between stardom, gender, politics and industry during the transition from the Fascist era to the postwar period, focusing on the cultural signification of his star persona and his work in one of the most popular genres of postwar Italy, the melodrama.

  • Uw Cinematheque Announces Fall 2012 Screening Calendar
    CINEMATHEQUE PRESS RELEASE -- FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE AUGUST 16, 2012 UW CINEMATHEQUE ANNOUNCES FALL 2012 SCREENING CALENDAR PACKED LINEUP INCLUDES ANTI-WESTERNS, ITALIAN CLASSICS, PRESTON STURGES SCREENPLAYS, FILMS DIRECTED BY ALEXSEI GUERMAN, KENJI MISUMI, & CHARLES CHAPLIN AND MORE Hot on the heels of our enormously popular summer offerings, the UW Cinematheque is back with the most jam-packed season of screenings ever offered for the fall. Director and cinephile Peter Bogdanovich (who almost made an early version of Lonesome Dove during the era of the revisionist Western) writes that “There are no ‘old’ movies—only movies you have already seen and ones you haven't.” With all that in mind, our Fall 2012 selections presented at 4070 Vilas Hall, the Chazen Museum of Art, and the Marquee Theater at Union South offer a moveable feast of outstanding international movies from the silent era to the present, some you may have seen and some you probably haven’t. Retrospective series include five classic “Anti-Westerns” from the late 1960s and early 70s; the complete features of Russian master Aleksei Guerman; action epics and contemplative dramas from Japanese filmmaker Kenji Misumi; a breathtaking survey of Italian Masterworks from the neorealist era to the early 1970s; Depression Era comedies and dramas with scripts by the renowned Preston Sturges; and three silent comedy classics directed by and starring Charles Chaplin. Other Special Presentations include a screening of Yasujiro Ozu’s Dragnet Girl with live piano accompaniment and an in-person visit from veteran film and television director Tim Hunter, who will present one of his favorite films, Tsui Hark’s Shanghai Blues and a screening of his own acclaimed youth film, River’s Edge.

Asimismo, por lo que concierne el material sobre Ennio Flaiano, he utilizado las numerosas publicaciones de la “Associazione Culturale Ennio Flaiano” de Pescara, cuyos volúmenes siempre han sido el apoyo más valioso en toda investigación sobre la figura y la obra del italiano. Por lo que respecta a la difícil labor de conseguir películas de los años 50, 60 y 70, tengo que agradecer a Cristina Ros de la Universidad de Alicante por haberme ofrecido la oportunidad de ver El Anacoreta, de Juan Esterlich; a la “Cineteca del Friuli”, que me ha facilitado la visión de La cagna de Marco Ferreri; al “Laboratorio Cinema e Multimedia” de la Universidad de Udine y a la “Filmoteca del Museo” de la Universidad de Alicante.

  • FILMS WORTH TALKING ABOUT 56 Days That Will Rock Your Cinema World!
    10 JAN 20 5 MAR 20 1 | 10 JAN 20 - 5 MAR 20 88 LOTHIAN ROAD | FILMHOUSECINEMA.COM FILMS WORTH TALKING ABOUT 56 days that will rock your cinema world! Well, here we are again… it’s Awards season! I was reminded of such by a communication that came my way from AMPAS (the Oscar® people) listing nine categories’ shortlists of potential nominees. Now, they’ve been doing that shortlist thing with Foreign Language films for quite some time – there’s a lot of films out there in the world, it would be rather too much for the Academy members to have to watch them all! – but, to my knowledge, they’ve not before done it with any other category. It may be it’s for the same reason of sheer volume as above, but I guess what it also does is allows a greater number of films a reason to mention their Academy Award status in their advertising. I can see it now, “Academy Award Nomination shortlisted…” written on the poster. Where will it all end I wonder, “Academy Award Nomination eligible…”? As luck would have [nothing to do with] it, one of the films on the Foreign Language short list – which at this point in time seems the overwhelming favourite – is Bong Joon Ho’s utterly brilliant Parasite, which takes its place alongside a programme of films that is simplythe best line-up of new cinema I’ve seen in a long time. There’s not just the aforementioned South Korean masterpiece, there’s Sam Mendes’ extraordinary ‘one-take’ wonder 1917 (google ‘1917 behind the scenes featurette’ and prepare to simply have to see this film); Taika (‘Wilderpeople’) Waititi’s WWII, Nazi Germany-set, Jojo Rabbit; Armando Iannucci’s breathless Dickens, The Personal History of David Copperfield; Robert Egger’s uniquely bonkers, fog-bound The Lighthouse; Kidman, Robbie and Theron taking on the Fox News patriarchy in Bombshell; and to cap it all off, and possibly the best of the lot, Céline Sciamma’sexquisite Portrait of a Lady on Fire.

The insistence that all facilitators have doctorates in the humanities is, on the other hand, a requirement that the National Endowment for the Humanities builds into all its educational program grants. Some of you have had to ask for exceptions to this requirement, and in all instances, we have approved these exceptions because you have come up with people who are both experienced teachers and also have a special interest in film, literature, and/or aging. In short, we are fully confident that you will all do an excellent job introducing your students to this new, timely, entertaining and yet extremely important subject, one that promises to have a direct personal impact on its participants.
