  • And the Ship Sails On
    And The Ship Sails On by Serge Toubiana at the occasion of the end of his term as Director-General of the Cinémathèque française. Within just a few days, I shall come to the end of my term as Director-General of the Cinémathèque française. As of February 1st, 2016, Frédéric Bonnaud will take up the reins and assume full responsibility for this great institution. We shall have spent a great deal of time in each other's company over the past month, with a view to inducting Frédéric into the way the place works. He has been able to learn the range of our activities, meet the teams and discover all our on-going projects. This friendly transition from one director-general to the next is designed to allow Frédéric to function at full-steam from day one. The handover will have been, both in reality and in the perception, a peaceful moment in the life of the Cinémathèque, perhaps the first easy handover in its long and sometimes turbulent history. That's the way we want it - we being Costa-Gavras, chairman of our board, and the regulatory authority, represented by Fleur Pellerin, Minister of Culture and Communication, and Frédérique Bredin, Chairperson of the CNC, France's National Centre for Cinema and Animation. The peaceful nature of this handover offers further proof that the Cinémathèque has entered into a period of maturity and is now sufficiently grounded and self-confident to start out on the next chapter without trepidation. But let me step back in time. Since moving into the Frank Gehry building at 51 rue de Bercy, at the behest of the Ministry of Culture, the Cinémathèque française has undergone a profound transformation.

  • Carte Italiane
    REVIEWS 67 nella cit. recensione, p. 2006, il richiamo ai « bigonzoni » e agli altri termini ariostcschi non vale propriamente da citazione testuale, ma da riferimento a memoria. Questo peraltro potrebbe anche confermare la provvisorietà di una redazione dei DL consistente in pura dinamica di pensiero, senza il soccorso e la mediazione di libri e documenti. Recent Publications in the Field ofltalian Cinema To date the best introduction to Italian cinema available in English is Peter Bondanella's Italian Cinema from Neo-realism to the Present (Ungar, 1983) of which Fellini himself has said: "... a very good hook, and an accurate one." The material in the Bondanella text is cen- tered around a selection of representative films which are discussed at length and presented in their historical and cultural context. This fo- cus helps the reader orient him/herself and is essential for the newcomer to the rather vast subject of Italian film production. For those who might he interested in tracking down a copy of a film, Bondanella's section on rental information will undoubtedly prove quite valuable. A more recent attempi on the same subject is Mira Leihm's Passion and Defiance. Film in Italy from 1942 to the Present (UC Press, 1984). Liehm's text, while offering a large section on the generally neglected early Italian film (1930-42) and a greater emphasis on Italian cinema before 1952, not to mention a wide selection of photographic illustra- tions (147 m ali!) ends up resembling more a compendium of names and titles while providing only brief descriptions and superficial ana- lyses of the films themselves.

  • Italian Films (Updated April 2011)
    Language Laboratory Film Collection Wagner College: Campus Hall 202 Italian Films (updated April 2011): Agata and the Storm/ Agata e la tempesta (2004) Silvio Soldini. Italy The pleasant life of middle-aged Agata (Licia Maglietta) -- owner of the most popular bookstore in town -- is turned topsy-turvy when she begins an uncertain affair with a man 13 years her junior (Claudio Santamaria). Meanwhile, life is equally turbulent for her brother, Gustavo (Emilio Solfrizzi), who discovers he was adopted and sets off to find his biological brother (Giuseppe Battiston) -- a married traveling salesman with a roving eye. Bicycle Thieves/ Ladri di biciclette (1948) Vittorio De Sica. Italy Widely considered a landmark Italian film, Vittorio De Sica's tale of a man who relies on his bicycle to do his job during Rome's post-World War II depression earned a special Oscar for its devastating power. The same day Antonio (Lamberto Maggiorani) gets his vehicle back from the pawnshop, someone steals it, prompting him to search the city in vain with his young son, Bruno (Enzo Staiola). Increasingly, he confronts a looming desperation. Big Deal on Madonna Street/ I soliti ignoti (1958) Mario Monicelli. Italy Director Mario Monicelli delivers this deft satire of the classic caper film Rififi, introducing a bungling group of amateurs -- including an ex-jockey (Carlo Pisacane), a former boxer (Vittorio Gassman) and an out-of-work photographer (Marcello Mastroianni). The crew plans a seemingly simple heist with a retired burglar (Totó), who serves as a consultant. But this Italian job is doomed from the start. Blow up (1966) Michelangelo Antonioni.

The first was the news that, after 22 years as délégué général, Gilles Jacob stepped up to become Président while handing down the reins to Thierry Frémaux, the latter now divides his time between Cannes and duties as head of the Institute Lumière in Lyons. The other was the presence on the Croisette of seven previous Palme d’Or directors: Francis Ford Coppola (The Conversation, 1974, and Apocalypse Now, 1979), Ermanno Olmi (The Tree of Wooden Clogs, 1978), Shohei Imamura (The Ballad of Narayama, 1983, and The Eel, 1997), David Lynch (Wild at Heart, 1990), Joel and Ethan Coen (Barton Fink, 1991), and Abbas Kiarostami (The Taste of Cherries, 1997). One might add, too, that over the past quarter century each of their eight award-winning films helped considerably to set the tone and style of the world’s mostrevered film festival. Apocalypse Now Redux In the case of Apocalypse Now -- aka Apocalypse Now Redux, to denote a new version of an old film -- Francis Ford Coppola returned to Cannes with the completed version of his work-in-progress presented here 22 years ago. No less than 53 minutes were added to the re-edited 203-minute version, in addition to a re-mastered Technicolor transfer and a re-mastered soundtrack.

  • Berlinale 2008
    Berlinale 2008 By Ron Holloway Spring 2008 Issue of KINEMA 58th BERLINALE 2008 Box Office Bonanza Will it ever end? During his seven years as Berlinale director, Dieter Kosslick’s festival tenure is annually boosted by success at the box office. Following the close of the 58th Berlin International Film Festival (7-17 February 2008), bonanza statistics were promptly released to the press. The 58th Berlinale recorded an overall audience of 430,000, of which some 230,000 purchased tickets, thus exceeding last year’s record by more than 6,000. The number of visiting film professionals (exhibitors, sales agents, industry representatives) increased to 20,000 from 125 countries, topping last year’s total of 19,155. The number of accredited journalists rose to 4,105. The sum of public screenings also rose to 1,256, compared with 934 screenings in 2007. Only the number of films participating in this year’s official programs dipped in comparison tolast year - down from 396 to 383 - but even this adjustment apparently made some Berlinale entries all the more attractive. The buzz at the Berlinale? Of particular interest were the ”EFM Industry Debates” held in the Marriott Hotel for three days in the middle of the festival. A hundred participants registered for the panel discussions on the challenges and opportunities of ”Digital Film Distribution” in the not too distant future. Another press headliner was a calculation on the ”monetary worth” of this year’s Berlinale, reckoned at circa €17.2m, or around US$ 26m. The sum includes the input by the German government (country, state, city), estimated at € 6.2m, or approximately US$ 9.3m.
