Being a Non-Entity with Soon-Yi Previn Carl Hugmeyer Sometimes I realize that I’m not really putting myself out there. Being pleasant and considerate towards those around you is important, but part of me still thinks there should be something else going on. I find it hard to track down my contributions, my expressions, my statements. Partially read New Yorkers pile up and Netflix still recommends more documentaries than sitcoms. There is kale in the refrigerator, yes, and a $23 bottle of wine. Great. But is this supposed to be a model of beautiful living, to show to those who scream at their children, slapping them and then tugging at their arms as they wait for the tank to fill up at the gas station? To those who throw their Burger King wrappers out of the car window? It is dust accumulating, nothing, a mouse in the walls of the world that no one really sees or cares about except when it gets audibly worked up or so thoroughly stuck that a smell begins to emanate.

  • False Authenticity in the Films of Woody Allen
    False Authenticity in the Films of Woody Allen by Nicholas Vick November, 2012 Director of Thesis: Amanda Klein Major Department: English Woody Allen is an auteur who is deeply concerned with the visual presentation of his cityscapes. However, each city that Allen films is presented in such a glamorous light that the depiction of the cities is falsely authentic. That is, Allen's cityscapes are actually unrealistic recreations based on his nostalgia or stilted view of the city's culture. Allen's treatment of each city is similar to each other in that he strives to create a cinematic postcard for the viewer. However, differing themes and characteristics emerge to define Allen's optimistic visual approach. Allen's hometown of Manhattan is a place where artists, intellectuals, and writers can thrive. Paris denotes a sense of nostalgia and questions the power behind it. Allen's London is primarily concerned with class and the social imperative. Finally, Barcelona is a haven for physicality, bravado, and sex but also uncertainty for American travelers. Despite being in these picturesque and dynamic locations, happiness is rarely achieved for Allen's characters. So, regardless of Allen's dreamy and romanticized visual treatment of cityscapes and culture, Allen is a director who operates in a continuous state of contradiction because of the emotional unrest his characters suffer.

    CICLO DE CINE Cine de Museos: De las vitrinas a la pantalla II Manhattan Woody Allen (1979) 30 de mayo de 2013, 18.00 h Título original: Manhattan. Dirección: Woody Allen. Producción: Jack Rollins & Charles H. Joffe Productions para United Artist. Productores: Charles H. Joffe, Jack Rollins. Productor ejecutivo: Robert Greenhut. Guion: Woody Allen, Marshall Brickman. Fotografía: Gordon Willis. Música: George Gershwin, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Montaje: Susan E. Morse. Diseño de producción: Mel Bourne. Intérpretes: Woody Allen (Isaac), Diane Keaton (Mary), Michael Murphy (Yale), Mariel Hemingway (Tracy), Meryl Streep (Jill), Anne Byrne Hoffman (Emily), Karen Ludwig (Connie), Michael O'Donoghue (Dennis), Victor Truro, Tisa Farrow, Helen Hanft, Bella Abzug, Gary Weis, Kenny Vance, Charles Levin, Karen Allen, David Rasche, Damion Scheller, Wallace Shawn, Mark Linn-Baker, Frances Conroy, Bill Anthony, John Doumanian, Raymond Serra, Llewellyn Lafford... Nacionalidad y año: Estados Unidos 1979. Duración y datos técnicos: 96 min. B/N 2.35:1. Muchos de los admiradores del cine de Woody Allen (entre los que me encuentro) piensan, pensamos, que en su última etapa el realizador judío ha perdido fuelle, que está lejos de la viveza, ingenio y vitalidad de antiguas obras, que últimamente no hace más que dar vueltas sobre lo mismo, plantear idénticas ideas ya oxidadas por el tiempo. Cierto es que el mundo de Woody Allen siempre ha pivotado por unas constantes, pero en los últimos tiempos ya parecen haberse agotado, llegando en ocasiones al nivel de vergonzosa auto-parodia como fue la muy tópica Vicky Cristina Barcelona (2008), impropia de un ojo clínico como el suyo.
