BETHUNE Parce que tous s'attendaient à un désastre après avoir Donald Sutherland, espéré un chef-d'œuvre, plusieurs applaudiront, soulagés, ce Bethune Bethune qui n'est manifestement pas un grand film. Lamis e en scène, laphotographie , lemontag ee t lamusiqu e n'aspirent d'ailleurs pas au cinéma, mais à la télévision pour laquelle Bethune a visiblement été calibré. En vérité, Bethune n'est qu'un vaste téléfilm radio-canadien de 1800 0 000 dollarsqu i n'a pas grand-chose à voir avec le cinéma. C'est, empressons- nous de l'ajouter, un bon téléfilm : avec de bons acteurs, de beaux décors, de bonnes répliques et de bonssentiments , mais cela demeure, de la première à la dernière image, un objet de communication télévisuelle, porté par le verbe et monté àu n rythme publicitaire. Ce téléfilm tronqué, puisque la version cinéma n'est qu'un «digest» de laversio n téléd equatr e heures trente, est lui-même amputé de quelque vingt-cinq minutes, que le cinéast ee t savedett e jugeaient essentiellesa udéveloppe ­ ment de l'histoire. Reste tout de même un personnage et un acteur: la force de Bethune (et son originalité bien relative) tient àl avirulenc e ave c laquell eso nsuje t estdépeint , sansfar d ni apologie. Donald Sutherland, qui n'en est pasà s apremièr e interprétation du rôle, incarne à la perfection les petitesses de cegran d homme.So n interprétation donnea u film uneénergi e que la misee n scènees t incapable de lui insuffler. Cen'es t pas suffisant pour en faire un grand film, mais presque assez pour en faire, envers et contre tous, du cinéma. (Canada/Chine/ France. 1990. Ré.:Phillip Borsos. Int.: Donald Suther­ land, Helen Mirren, Helen Shaver, Colm Feore, James Pax.) 113 min. Disc: Ciné 360. -G.P. DADDY NOSTALGIE DansDadd y Nostalgie, comme son nom l'indique, il y a un Daddy, et il y a de la nostalgie. Et c'est à peu près tout. Daddy va mourir, sa fille accourt à son chevet, ils coulent ensemble quelques jours merveilleux-de-tendresse-et-de- complicité. La seule bonne idée du film est de miset sur la connivence linguistique de Bogarde et Birkin: quand ils se parlent en anglais, quelque chose passe qui échappe aux standards d'émotion, mais cela se fait un peu aux dépens du personnage d'Odette Laure, étrange pièce rapportée qui pique lacuriosité , et de l'énigme du couple bien improbable qu'elle forme avec Bogarde. Quant au reste, Daddy Nostalgie est un film bardé d'alibis. Chantage au vécu: il s'est assez répétéqu e le scénario de Colo O'Hagan est autobiographique et que le père de Tavernier est mort pendant le tournage. Prise d'otage au monstre sacré: comme hier Dexter Gordon, on met Dick Bogardedevan t lacamér ae to n meublevaguemen t autourpou r faire un semblant de film.

The hearing process provided a stage for the striking testimony of Dr. Christine Blasey Ford, who accuses Kavanaugh of sexual assault when Presumed Innocent were in high school, and the emotional rebuttal of Kavanaugh, who denies those claims. The news has also drawn attention to a fundamental principle of law that, it turns out, is more complicated than it seems: the presumption of innocence. Senate Majority Leader Presumed Innocent McConnell has defended Kavanaugh on the principle that he is innocent until proven guilty, while Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer has made the point that the hearings are not a lawsuit and thus the legal presumed innocence rule is basically irrelevant. The two senators, despite working within the same system, are able to find very different guidance from the same concept. He found that the ancient Babylonian Code of Hammurabi put the burden of proof on the accuser; that the ancient Presumed Innocent statesman Demosthenes wrote about the importance of not calling people criminals before they were convicted; that a key third-century Roman legal document set forward rules about the evidence an accuser must supply; and that a Medieval European legal principle specified that conviction, Presumed Innocent accusation, defined a criminal.

    THE FASHION OF FILM: HOW CINEMA HAS INSPIRED FASHION PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Amber Jane Butchart | 224 pages | 08 Sep 2016 | Octopus Publishing Group | 9781784721763 | English | London, United Kingdom 25 Most Iconic Fashion Moments In Film However, since then various factors have enriched and diversified fashion's interaction with film. First, there was—in the wake of Audrey Hepburn 's successful collaboration with the then young and relatively unknown Paris couturier Hubert de Givenchy from Sabrina onward—the growing use of fashion as opposed to costume design on a number of key movies. Third and a far more contemporary factor is the rise in celebrity culture and a burgeoning interest in movie stars, what they wear both on and off the screen. From the s through the s, relatively few fashion designers demeaned themselves by working for moving pictures. It was Givenchy's collaboration with Hepburn that changed everything. Called in reputedly at Hepburn's behest, Givenchy's first film costumes were the ball gowns in Sabrina. The details of this story are muddled because Givenchy's account of his input in the film at times directly contradicts the version proffered by the film's overall costume designer, Edith Head. Head, who had designed the costumes for Hepburn's Oscar- winning role as the princess in Roman Holiday just the previous year, was clearly hurt by the star's—and director's—decision to acquire an actual Paris wardrobe for Sabrina. In The Dress Doctor , Head comments: "I had to console myself with the dress, whose boat neckline was tied on each shoulder—widely known and copied as 'the Sabrina neckline'" Head and Ardmore , p.

  • Films for Exploring Peace and Justice Themes
    Films for Exploring Peace and Justice Themes Many youth and adult groups have discovered the value of films for education and outreach. Films may be shown singly or as part of a series. One group organized a “Tuesday Evenings at the Movies” series, served popcorn, and had a great time. Most of these films have short segments that can be used to teach specific peace and justice insights or skills, and can encourage folks to see the rest of the film. Below are films that we’ve found to be especially effective. (Well-known stars and directors are in parentheses.)

  • Rated Equis: American Reactions to the Films of Pedro Almodóvar
    Rated Equis: American Reactions to the Films of Pedro Almodóvar Honors College Thesis Catherine Wheeler Advisor: Tina Escaja Spanish Department University of Vermont Introduction Sweet heart of mine suddenly attacked. All for loving more than the permissible. All because a cigar sits in a mouth And dampens in its succulent silks. Because a provocative T-shirt points out On his chest, the sculpted shield, And a vigorous arm peeks from the smallest sleeve. All because some legs, some perfect legs, In the tightest pants, separate in front of me. They separate. -Ana Rossetti, “Chico Wrangler” (Translated Catherine Wheeler) Pedro Almodóvar, now the world’s most celebrated Spanish film director since Luis Buñuel, has been hailed as the poster boy for the Madrid movida, an “anything goes” cultural movement that immediately followed the death of Francisco Franco in 1975. The movida has been called an attempt to unify all people regardless of birthplace, politics, economics, and sexual identity, while in practice it pertained mostly to the middle and upper classes. After nearly forty years of extreme conservatism under Franco’s regime, the youth of Madrid reacted to its newfound creative and sexual liberty with unparalleled gusto. The movida emphasized a reversal of traditional gender roles, sexual experimentation, and drug use. By its end in the mid 1980s, politicians had embraced the movida as Madrid’s new, post-fascism identity (Stapell). This political institutionalization of an originally pseudo anarchistic movement signified the death of the period of extreme self-liberation. The movida petered out by the mid 1980s, largely due to the spread of AIDS and movida members’ rampant drug use.
