  • Shakespeare on Film, Video & Stage
    William Shakespeare on Film, Video and Stage Titles in bold red font with an asterisk (*) represent the crème de la crème – first choice titles in each category. These are the titles you’ll probably want to explore first. Titles in bold black font are the second- tier – outstanding films that are the next level of artistry and craftsmanship. Once you have experienced the top tier, these are where you should go next. They may not represent the highest achievement in each genre, but they are definitely a cut above the rest. Finally, the titles which are in a regular black font constitute the rest of the films within the genre. I would be the first to admit that some of these may actually be worthy of being “ranked” more highly, but it is a ridiculously subjective matter.

Francesco Maselli Gli indifferenti (Italia/Francia 1964, 90’, b/n) Il film rilegge per lo schermo il primo romanzo di Moravia, offrendo una rappresentazione densa e articolata del clima culturale e morale dell'Italia del fascismo. Maselli evoca nel suo ricco e duttile bianco e nero tutta l'incapacità borghese di travalicare gli argini, quelli costituiti dalla demolizione fascista dei valori storici e sociali, ma anche quelli, più sfumati ed esistenziali, indotti dalla precarietà di ogni cosa nel tempo, sentimenti, bellezza e poteri connessi.

  • American International Pictures (AIP) Est Une Société De Production Et
    American International Pictures (AIP) est une société de production et distribution américaine, fondée en 1956 depuis "American Releasing Corporation" (en 1955) par James H. Nicholson et Samuel Z. Arkoff, dédiée à la production de films indépendants à petits budgets, principalement à destination des adolescents des années 50, 60 et 70. 1 Né à Fort Dodge, Iowa à une famille juive russe, Arkoff a d'abord étudié pour être avocat. Il va s’associer avec James H. Nicholson et le producteur-réalisateur Roger Corman, avec lesquels il produira dix-huit films. Dans les années 1950, lui et Nicholson fondent l'American Releasing Corporation, qui deviendra plus tard plus connue sous le nom American International Pictures et qui produira plus de 125 films avant la disparition de l'entreprise dans les années 1980. Ces films étaient pour la plupart à faible budget, avec une production achevée en quelques jours. Arkoff est également crédité du début de genres cinématographiques, comme le Parti Beach et les films de motards, enfin sa société jouera un rôle important pour amener le film d'horreur à un niveau important avec Blacula, I Was a Teenage Werewolf et Le Chose à deux têtes. American International Pictures films engage très souvent de grands acteurs dans les rôles principaux, tels que Boris Karloff, Elsa Lanchester et Vincent Price, ainsi que des étoiles montantes qui, plus tard deviendront très connus comme Don Johnson, Nick Nolte, Diane Ladd, et Jack Nicholson. Un certain nombre d'acteurs rejetées ou 2 négligées par Hollywood dans les années 1960 et 1970, comme Bruce Dern et Dennis Hopper, trouvent du travail dans une ou plusieurs productions d’Arkoff.

  • Un Secolo Di Cinema Firmato Bava – 2003
    UN SECOLO DI CINEMA FIRMATO BAVA di Renato Venturelli La leggenda dei Bava, al cinema, dura ormai da quasi un secolo. Di padre in figlio, di figlio in nipote, è già arrivata alla quarta generazione: prima Eugenio (Francesco) Bava, eccentrica figura di inventore e mago degli effetti speciali fin dagli anni della Belle Epoque poi Mario, geniale direttore della fotografia e regista, oggetto di culto in tutto il mondo; quindi Lamberto, che cominciò lavorando al fianco del padre negli anni Sessanta diventando poi autore cinematografico e televisivo. E adesso Roy, che ha iniziato da qualche anno la sua carriera. Tutto era cominciato all’inizio del Novecento, quando nonno Eugenio (1886-1966) ricevette il primo incarico da parte del cinema: la costruzione di un caminetto per un film Pathé. All’epoca, aveva appena compiuto vent’anni, essendo nato a Sanremo nel 1886, e secondo il figlio Mario era il prototipo dell’artista bohémien. «Cravatta e fiocco rivoluzionario, basco alla Raffaello) era un artista - disse in un famoso intervento del 1976- era pittore, scultore,fotografo, chimico, elettricista, medium, inventore; perse anni a studiare il moto perpetuo. Verso il 1908 per una succosa storia, purtroppo troppo lunga da raccontare, conobbe il cinema. Si “incimiciò”, dette un calcio al passato, e si gettò a capofitto nella Nuova Arte, diventando operatore: all’epoca non si diceva direttore della fotografia.. «E non si chiamava nemmeno Eugenio — aggiunge Lamberto— ma Francesco: è il nome scritto anche sulla sua tomba». Negli anni Dieci, il capostipite dei Bava lavorò nella sua città, fondando anche la “San Remo Film”, poi passò all’Ambrosio di Torino, quindi si stabilì a Roma, responsabile del Reparto Animazione e Trucchi dell’istituto Luce, escogitando trucchi ed effetti speciali fin quasi alla morte, avvenuta nel 1966,quando aveva ottant’anni.
