    Press Contact: Harry Forbes, WNET 212-560-8027 or [email protected] Lindsey Bernstein, WNET 212-560-6609 or [email protected] Press materials: thirteen.org/pressroom Web site: www.thirteen.org/sites/reel13 Twitter: @Reel13 Classic Love Stories Featured on Reel 13 in February February’s slate of classic films on Reel 13 features three critically acclaimed love stories – all great box office winners in their day – and distinctly emblematic of their respective decades. Casablanca , one of the most seminal films of our time, and making its Reel 13 debut, leads the charge. Based on Murray Burnett and Joan Alison’s unproduced stage play “Everybody Comes to Rick’s,” the classic World War II-era film focuses on an American expatriate who must choose between his love for a woman and helping her Czech Resistance leader husband escape the Vichy-controlled city of Casablanca to continue his fight against the Nazis. The Humphrey Bogart , Ingrid Bergman , and Paul Henreid starrer was recognized with three Academy Awards including “Best Picture,” “Best Director,” and “Best Screenplay.” The lead characters, memorable lines and theme song (“As Time Goes By”) have become iconic and the film continuously tops the lists of the greatest films of all time. The romantic comedy Broadcast News , written, produced and directed by James L. Brooks, centers around a television news producer with daily emotional breakdowns, a prickly reporter, and the producer’s charismatic but far less seasoned rival. The film was nominated for seven Academy Awards including “Best Picture,” “Best Actor,” “Best Actress” and “Best Supporting Actor.” . The romantic comedy Four Weddings and a Funeral rounds out the month’s love story offerings.

  • British Art Cinema
    Introduction: British art cinema 1 Introduction – British art cinema: creativity, experimentation and innovation Paul Newland and Brian Hoyle What is art cinema? Definitions of art cinema have long been contested, but the generic term ‘art cinema’ has generally come to stand for feature-length narrative films that are situated at the margins of mainstream cinema, located some- where between overtly experimental films and more obviously commercial product. Whether it is through a modernist, drifting, episodic approach to storytelling; a complex engagement with high culture; the foregrounding of a distinct authorial voice; or a simple refusal to bow to normal commercial considerations, at its heart the term ‘art cinema’ has come to represent film- making which is distinct from – and often in direct opposition to – popular narrative film. But for Steve Neale, writing in a seminal article published in the journal Screen in 1981, the term ‘art cinema’ applies not just to individ- ual films and film histories but also to patterns of distribution, exhibition, reception and audience engagement.1 Moreover, art cinema, in its cultural and aesthetic aspirations but also its audience, relies heavily upon an appeal to ‘universal’ values of culture and art. This is reflected in the existence of international festivals, where distribution is sought for these films, and where their status as ‘art’ – and as films ‘to be taken seriously’ – is confirmed and re-stated through prizes and awards. Writing in 2013, David Andrews argued that art cinema should

  • Richard Curtis HLPF Speech Final Draft
    Opening of the high-level segment of ECOSOC / Ministerial segment of HLPF Keynote speech by Richard Curtis, SDG Advocate, screenwriter, Producer and Film Director and Co-Founder of Project Everyone I have written quite a few versions of this speech. Many of them have been factual and sensible as befits this occasion. But I’ve become worried that that’s not my job. As the person who gave the world Mr Bean and has written movies that made Hugh Grant so rich and so unhappy – I feel I’m still slightly an outsider here – and it’s my job to be an advocate for the people who aren’t here today. These are people who don’t know what the HLPF is – they don’t know what ECOSOC is – they don’t even know what the PGA is – although of course they should. But many of them do know who the Secretary General is – they know he’s not a secretary and they know he’s not a general – and they know he’s in a unique position and that the United Nations he leads is something that carries their hopes and dreams for a better world. The sensible speech I was preparing was full of important and excellent facts – the number of countries who have bent their systems towards the Goals – the powerful gains that have been made. And whatever I now say, my prime message is to congratulate all those presenting their National Reviews. There is real and impressive progress. Thank you all. But I kept worrying that I wasn’t saying what was in my heart and the heart of those all around the world from the Aboriginal elders still fighting for their rights in my native Australia to the school children, including my own son, marching for Climate progress in Trafalgar Square.

  • The Artist This February 'Love Is in the Air' in the Library. What Better Way To
    This February ‘love is in the air’ in the library. What better way to enjoy Valentine’s Day than curled up on your couch watching a movie? From modern favourites to timeless classics, there are countless movies in the romance genre, so here at the Learning Curve we’re here to help you narrow them down. Get ready to laugh, cry, swoon, and everything in between with your favourite hunks, lovers, and heroines. Whether you're taking some ‘me time’ or cuddled up with that special someone, here at the library we have a great selection of DVDs. These can all be found on popular streaming services or borrowed from the library using our Click & Collect Service once lockdown is over. Be sure to have popcorn and tissues at the ready! The Artist Director: Michel Hazanavicius Actors: Jean Dujardin, Bérénice Bejo, John Goodman, James Cromwell, Penelope Ann Miller The Artist is a love letter and homage to classic black-and-white silent films. The film is enormously likable and is anchored by a charming performance from Jean Dujardin, as silent movie star George Valentin. In late-1920s Hollywood, as Valentin wonders if the arrival of talking pictures will cause him to fade into oblivion, he makes an intense connection with Peppy Miller, a young dancer set for a big break. As one career declines, another flourishes, and by channelling elements of A Star Is Born and Singing in the Rain, The Artist tells the engaging story with humour, melodrama, romance, and--most importantly--silence. As wonderful as the performances by Dujardin and Bérénice Bejo (Miller) are, the real star of The Artist is cinematographer Guillaume Schiffman.
