Joanna (Margaret Qualley) est une jeune diplômée en littérature qui veut devenir écrivaine. Mais à peine a-t-elle le temps de poursuivre son objectif qu'elle est embauchée comme assistante dans une agence littéraire renommée mais plutôt traditionnelle. Sa patronne, Margaret (Sigourney Weaver), une femme sévère et intimidante, est l'agente de J.D. Salinger. L'auteur mythique veut publier un livre plus de trente ans après sa dernière parution. Malgré sa longue absence, Salinger reçoit encore des milliers de lettres d’admirateurs qui veulent établir un contact avec lui. Le travail de Joanna consiste alors principalement à leur envoyer la même lettre générique. Mais lorsqu’elle commence à répondre personnellement à certaines de ces lettres, Joanna s’investit émotionnellement. La jeune femme est alors forcée de se questionner sur son avenir : souhaite-t-elle travailler en édition ou devenir écrivaine à part entière? Salinger et ses admirateurs joueront un rôle discret, mais significatif, dans son cheminement. Mon année Salinger (My Salinger Year) est adapté du récit autobiographique de Joanna Rakoff, publié en 2014. Entretien avec le réalisateur Vous avez écrit directement certains de vos longs métrages ainsi que des scénarios adaptés.

  • A Year Ago, My Welcome Note Flashed
    A year ago, my welcome note flashed with excitement for a big KCFF milestone – our 20th edition! We’d booked more films, more guests and more special events than ever before, even adding an extra day to the Fest. Atom Egoyan was coming to Kingston! Ticket sales were through the roof, we had assembled a stellar team and perhaps best of all, the movies were amazing. A week prior to opening night, faint talk of the pandemic circulated – but it seemed like a distant concern, especially for a small community like Kingston. We were keen and confident the show would go on! (This is the part of the movie when the needle scratches *whirrp across the record….) On day two of KCFF (Thursday March 12, I clearly remember) we woke to inboxes full of cancellations, heated words of warning and heightened concern. CTV reported that health officials were suggesting something called “social distancing” which did not gel with festival plans whatsoever. By noon, nearly all our special guests had bailed and the creeping anxiety among staff, volunteers and festival-goers had accelerated. Knowing we’d never make it to closing night alive (metaphorically speaking) an emergency Board meeting was called and we immediately drew up cancellation plans. With over 18 months of preparations, KCFF20 stopped dead in its tracks. By the time Monday rolled around – when we’d normally be tying a nice bow on the Fest – Princess Street resembled a ghost town. To top it all off, Pearl Jam had cancelled their international tour, which meant my colleague Megan’s 40th birthday plans were toast.

The lectures will be given at the usual class times, recorded, and then posted on myCourses. Similarly, discussions around assigned readings and films will take place as scheduled. They too will be recorded and uploaded to myCourses. Introduction Purpose of the Course This course is an introduction to the ideas and approaches that scholars have applied to and derived from the study of Quebec. It has been designed to familiarize you with some of the foremost issues, which have shaped and continue to influence contemporary life in Quebec. Employing an interdisciplinary focus, the course examines changing notions about how Quebecers have lived together: specifically by what means they have interacted with one another, earned a living, and responded to various political regimes. With eleven Indigenous nations, multilingual, multiethnic, racialized, and religious communities, minority status in Canada, and so much more, the complexity and diversity of Quebec will be explored. Given anxiety about the ‘racial’ makeup of Quebec, particularly in periods of mass immigration that subjected newcomers to intolerance and debates about their inability to meet the standards of inclusion, attention will also be paid to ideas about citizenship.

    For Those Who Don’t Read Me (Original French Title: À tous ceux qui ne me lisent pas) a film by Yan Giroux written by Guillaume Corbeil Yan Giroux starring Martin Dubreuil Céline Bonnier Henri Picard CONTACT: Élaine Hébert, Luc Déry, Kim McCraw Tel : +1 514 844-4554 [email protected] synopsis All his life, Yves dedicated himself to poetry, carrying his suitcase to any couch that would welcome him. When he storms into Dyane's life, a graphic designer who falls for his charms, her son Marc immediately disapproves of this eccentric stranger in his mother's bed. But the studious teenager soon finds Yves' rebel ways contagious and begins to explore his own artistic side. Meanwhile, the poet feels increasingly trapped in his new life and decides to sabotage everything in a great outburst. Now alone at the end of the world, he realizes his words no longer mean anything. Freely inspired by the life and work of Quebec poet Yves Boisvert (1950-2012), For Those Who Don't Read Me tells the story of a man's quest for the absolute, fighting not to end up forgotten between two cookbooks.

    Presents MY SALINGER YEAR A film by Philippe Falardeau 101 mins, Canada/Ireland, 2020 Language: English Distribution Publicity Mongrel Media Inc Bonne Smith 217 – 136 Geary Ave Star PR Toronto, Ontario, M6H 4H1 Tel: 416-488-4436 Tel: 416-516-9775 Fax: 416-516-0651 Twitter: @starpr2 E-mail: [email protected] E-mail: [email protected] www.mongrelmedia.com SYNOPSIS New York in the 90s: After leaving graduate school to pursue her dream of becoming a writer, Joanna gets hired as an assistant to Margaret, the stoic and old-fashioned literary agent of J. D. Salinger. Fluctuating between poverty and glamour, she spends her days in a plush, wood-panelled office - where dictaphones and typewriters still reign and agents doze off after three-martini lunches - and her nights in a sink-less Brooklyn apartment with her socialist boyfriend. Joanna’s main task is processing Salinger’s voluminous fan mail, but as she reads the heart- wrenching letters from around the world, she becomes reluctant to send the agency’s impersonal standard letter and impulsively begins personalizing the responses. The results are both humorous and moving, as Joanna, while using the great writer’s voice, begins to discover her own. DIRECTOR’S INTERVIEW You have written some of your features as well as adapted screenplays. My Salinger Year, Joanna Rakoff’s celebrated memoir, is your first major book adaptation. What initially brought you to this story? I was browsing in a bookstore, and I picked up Joanna's memoirs drawn by the title and the fact it was written by a woman.

    FREEMY SALINGER YEAR EBOOK Joanna Rakoff | 272 pages | 02 Jul 2015 | Bloomsbury Publishing PLC | 9781408833971 | English | London, United Kingdom 'My Salinger Year': Film Review - Variety Joanna Rakoff's memoir of working for a New York literary agency is no 'Devil Wears Prada,' pitched more to teens who dream of writing than to young professionals familiar with the publishing world. By Peter Debruge. Chief Film Critic. She comes across as one of those kids too young to have heard of the Beatles, and too busy doing what? Portrayed thus, Joanna comes across as childlike, naive and shockingly shallow. And if My Salinger Year is such a special job, why does she take it for granted? The truth is considerably less glamorous, although Falardeau finds himself in a tricky predicament. Not really. However, since authorities believed that his novel may have inspired Mark David Chapman who was arrested with the book My Salinger Year killing John Lennon and John Hinckley Jr. Working the agency job gave Rakoff material for a book, but even then, much of that feels trite and immature. Margaret abhors technology, expecting her employees to use Dictaphones and typewriters. Email has not yet become a fixture, a detail that should further amuse audiences too young to remember a world of analog communication. Even books must feel like relics to such viewers. Could a movie as soft as this really inspire them? Wielding a cigarette as a comedic prop, Weaver gets the laughs, and the pathos, too, without having to play it as big as Meryl Streep did — but then, Westberg was no devil, and certainly nowhere near as recognizable as Anna Wintour.
