5 Jul 19 15 Aug 19 5 JUL 19 15 AUG 19 1 | 5 JUL 19 - 15 AUG 19 49 BELMONT STREET | BELMONTFILMHOUSE.COM The French plantation scene stays. That’s all we really needed to know. On 13 August we show the very Final Cut (probably, possibly) of Francis Ford Coppola’s masterpiece Apocalypse Now. Coppola apparently had derided the Redux version as just a little too flabby. Whereas the 1979 cut was just stripped a little too bare. We are promised that this, the 40th anniversary re-release, is just right. The aforementioned plantation scene, where Captain Willard happens upon a household of French colonialists, was disparaged by some critics upon release of the Redux for slowing the pace of the film. However, it’s absolutely crucial. Apocalypse Now: Redux was 202 minutes long, the original theatrical version was 147 minutes - let’s see if 183 minutes is the sweet spot for cinematic perfection. Cinematic perfection is, of course, the desired outcome always, although the new releases this month will have to be on their game to live up to an absolutely stellar array of re-releases. These include the incomparable Jaws, Hitchcock’s Notorious, Nic Roeg’s haunting Don’t Look Now, Spike Lee’s still-powerful Do the Right Thing, ‘90s icon The Matrix and Park Chan-wook’s brutally brilliant Oldboy. An impressive line- up, to be sure, but we’re lucky enough to pair these with a slate of excellent new releases... Asif Kapadia’s follow up to Senna and Amy, Diego Maradona, continues to explore fame and tragedy through El Diego’s bittersweet time in Naples; Ari Aster’s new horror Midsommar tells a Wicker Man-ish story in northern Sweden; and Jim Jarmusch takes on zombies - or ‘ghouls’ - in star-studded offbeat zom- com The Dead Don’t Die, starring Bill Murray, Adam Driver, Chloë Sevigny and Tilda Swinton. QT is back with Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood, with Leonardo DiCaprio as a fading star and Brad Pitt as his stuntman. The critics have been raving about this one since Cannes, so all signs point to a Tarantino who is truly back on form. We can’t wait. Attention must also be given to Scottish stories Tell It to the Bees and Only You, the former set in antiquated rural Stirlingshire and the latter in modern-day Glasgow. Glasgow is the setting for Wild Rose too, which, along with Rocketman, we bring back for encore runs. There’ll be plenty of local interest in Of Fish and Foe, which takes place in Fishtown of Usan, close to Montrose. The documentary examines the conflict between a North-eastern salmon fishing family and the sea shepherds who are out to stop them - and we’ll welcome the two directors to Belmont Filmhouse for a Q&A on Saturday 27 July at 6.15pm.

Written and directed by the award-winning Peter Strickland (The Duke of Burgundy, Berberian Sound Studio), In Fabric is a haunting, stylish ghost story - set against the backdrop of a busy winter sales period in a department store - that pays loving homage to the ‘giallo’ horror classics of the 1970s/80s. Laced with a wickedly arch sense of humour and a vivid colour palette, it follows the life of a ‘cursed’ dress as it passes from person to person, with devastating consequences... Strickland cements his place as one of the most distinctive and entertaining UK directors with this dark and seductive slice of textured, cinematic fun. “This is a flamboyant, sinister and very funny comedy horror.” «««« The Arts Desk NEW RELEASE NEW RELEASE Yesterday Midsommar Fri 28 Jun to Thu 11 Jul (‘Relaxed’ on Sun 7 Jul at 2.30pm) Fri 5 to Thu 18 Jul Danny Boyle • UK 2019 • 1h52m • Digital • 12A - Contains infrequent Ari Aster • USA 2019 • 2h40m Digital • English and Swedish with strong language, drug references, moderate sex references. • Cast: English subtitles • cert tbc • Cast: Florence Pugh, Will Poulter, William Himesh Patel, Lily James, Kate McKinnon, Ana de Armas, Ed Sheeran.

FILMS CITED………………………………………………………………….29 1. INTRODUCTION Jennifer’s Body, released in 2009, is a teen horror film directed by Karyn Kusama and written by Diablo Cody. It stars Megan Fox and Amanda Seyfried, playing Jennifer, the archetypal popular girl, and Anita “Needy,” her co-dependent best friend, respectively. Jennifer is a manipulative and overly sexual teenager who, as the result of a satanic ritual, is possessed by a demon and starts devouring her male classmates. Knowing that her friend is a menace, Needy decides she has to stop her. The marketing strategy behind Jennifer’s Body capitalized on Megan Fox’s emerging status as a sex symbol after her role in Transformers (dir. Michael Bay, 2007), as can be seen in the promotional poster (see fig. 1) and in the official trailer, in which Jennifer is described as the girl “every guy would die for.” The movie, which was a flop at the time of its release (grossing only $31.6 million worldwide for a film made on a $16 million Figure 1: Promotional poster budget) was criticised by some reviewers for not giving its (male) audience what it promised.

  • Jessica Lange Regis Dialogue Formatted
    Jessica Lange Regis Dialogue with Molly Haskell, 1997 Bruce Jenkins: Let me say that these dialogues have for the better part of this decade focused on that part of cinema devoted to narrative or dramatic filmmaking, and we've had evenings with actors, directors, cinematographers, and I would say really especially with those performers that we identify with the cutting edge of narrative filmmaking. In describing tonight's guest, Molly Haskell spoke of a creative artist who not only did a sizeable number of important projects but more importantly, did the projects that she herself wanted to see made. The same I think can be said about Molly Haskell. She began in the 1960s working in New York for the French Film Office at that point where the French New Wave needed a promoter and a writer and a translator. She eventually wrote the landmark book From Reverence to Rape on women in cinema from 1973 and republished in 1987, and did sizable stints as the film reviewer for Vogue magazine, The Village Voice, New York magazine, New York Observer, and more recently, for On the Issues. Her most recent book, Holding My Own in No Man's Land, contains her last two decades' worth of writing. I'm please to say it's in the Walker bookstore, as well. Our other guest tonight needs no introduction here in the Twin Cities nor in Cloquet, Minnesota, nor would I say anyplace in the world that motion pictures are watched and cherished. She's an internationally recognized star, but she's really a unique star.

    WMC INVESTIGATION: 10-YEAR ANALYSIS OF GENDER & OSCAR NOMINATIONS womensmediacenter.com @womensmediacntr WOMEN’S MEDIA CENTER ABOUT THE WOMEN’S MEDIA CENTER In 2005, Jane Fonda, Robin Morgan, and Gloria Steinem founded the Women’s Media Center (WMC), a progressive, nonpartisan, nonproft organization endeav- oring to raise the visibility, viability, and decision-making power of women and girls in media and thereby ensuring that their stories get told and their voices are heard. To reach those necessary goals, we strategically use an array of interconnected channels and platforms to transform not only the media landscape but also a cul- ture in which women’s and girls’ voices, stories, experiences, and images are nei- ther suffciently amplifed nor placed on par with the voices, stories, experiences, and images of men and boys. Our strategic tools include monitoring the media; commissioning and conducting research; and undertaking other special initiatives to spotlight gender and racial bias in news coverage, entertainment flm and television, social media, and other key sectors. Our publications include the book “Unspinning the Spin: The Women’s Media Center Guide to Fair and Accurate Language”; “The Women’s Media Center’s Media Guide to Gender Neutral Coverage of Women Candidates + Politicians”; “The Women’s Media Center Media Guide to Covering Reproductive Issues”; “WMC Media Watch: The Gender Gap in Coverage of Reproductive Issues”; “Writing Rape: How U.S. Media Cover Campus Rape and Sexual Assault”; “WMC Investigation: 10-Year Review of Gender & Emmy Nominations”; and the Women’s Media Center’s annual WMC Status of Women in the U.S.

It has been accepted for inclusion in this collection by an authorized administrator. For more information, please contact [email protected]. 1 Claremont McKenna College Why Hollywood Isn’t As Liberal As We Think And Why It Matters Submitted to Professor Jon Shields by Amanda Daily for Senior Thesis Fall 2018 and Spring 2019 April 29, 2019 2 3 Abstract Hollywood has long had a reputation as a liberal institution. Especially in 2019, it is viewed as a highly polarized sector of society sometimes hostile to those on the right side of the aisle. But just because the majority of those who work in Hollywood are liberal, that doesn’t necessarily mean our entertainment follows suit. I argue in my thesis that entertainment in Hollywood is far less partisan than people think it is and moreover, that our entertainment represents plenty of conservative themes and ideas. In doing so, I look at a combination of markets and artistic demands that restrain the politics of those in the entertainment industry and even create space for more conservative productions. Although normally art and markets are thought to be in tension with one another, in this case, they conspire to make our entertainment less one-sided politically.
