  • Sight & Sound Films of 2007
    Sight & Sound Films of 2007 Each year we ask a selection of our contributors - reviewers and critics from around the world - for their five films of the year. It's a very loosely policed subjective selection, based on films the writer has seen and enjoyed that year, and we don't deny them the choice of films that haven't yet reached the UK. And we don't give them much time to ponder, either - just about a week. So below you'll find the familiar and the obscure, the new and the old. From this we put together the top ten you see here. What distinguishes this particular list is that it's been drawn up from one of the best years for all-round quality I can remember. 2007 has seen some extraordinary films. So all of the films in the ten are must-sees and so are many more. Enjoy. - Nick James, Editor. 1 4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days (Cristian Mungiu) 2 Inland Empire (David Lynch) 3 Zodiac (David Fincher) = 4 I’m Not There (Todd Haynes) The Lives of Others (Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck) 6 Silent Light (Carlos Reygadas) = 7 The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford (Andrew Dominik) Syndromes and a Century (Apichatpong Weerasethakul) No Country for Old Men (Ethan and Joel Coen) Eastern Promises (David Cronenberg) 1 Table of Contents – alphabetical by critic Gilbert Adair (Critic and author, UK)............................................................................................4 Kaleem Aftab (Critic, The Independent, UK)...............................................................................4 Geoff Andrew (Critic

  • Patrice Chéreau. Cineasta Del Corpo Retrospettiva
    Patrice Chéreau. Cineasta del corpo Retrospettiva 16 - 21 febbraio 2010 Cinema Gnomo Milano Iniziativa promossa dal Comune di Milano A cura di Pier Giorgio Carizzoni Organizzata dall’ Associazione Culturale Dioniso Con il patrocinio del Centre Culturel Français de Milan Media partner: Rai Radio Tre Martedì 16 febbraio 2010 si inaugura al Cinema Gnomo di Milano la prima retrospettiva italiana di Patrice Chéreau, celebre regista francese di teatro e di cinema, al quale il Comune di Milano rende omaggio fino a domenica 21 febbraio con la proiezione dei 10 lungometraggi da lui diretti dal 1975 a oggi. L’iniziativa, curata da Pier Giorgio Carizzoni e organizzata dall’Associazione Culturale Dioniso con il patrocinio del Centre Culturel Français de Milan e la collaborazione di Rai RadioTre, si svolge in concomitanza con la presenza a Milano di Chéreau per la regia lirica dell’opera “Da una casa di morti” di Leoš Janá ček, al Teatro alla Scala dal 28 febbraio. Chéreau ha diretto nei suoi film alcuni dei più grandi attori del cinema europeo: Isabelle Huppert, Valeria Bruni Tedeschi, Jean-Louis Trintignant, Isabelle Adjani, Daniel Auteuil, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Simone Signoret, Charlotte Rampling, Jean-Hugues Anglade. Dalla sua filmografia emerge il profilo di un autore che sa esplorare con notevole vigore espressivo i volti e i corpi dei suoi personaggi, indagando in profondità nei risvolti più intimi e nascosti dell’animo umano, senza compiacimenti né rassicurazioni. Circa la metà dei film in programma, irreperibili in Italia, sono presentati in versione originale con sottotitoli in italiano. La rassegna si inaugura martedi 16 con la proiezione di Persécution (ore 18:30, replica domenica 21 ore 21:15, versione originale con sottotitoli in italiano), ultimo film diretto dal regista, presentato al Festival del cinema di Venezia 2009 e alla “Panoramica” milanese in anteprima assoluta, che racconta l’infelicità di un uomo perseguitato e persecutore, amante geloso e infedele fagocitato dal suo stesso narcisismo.
