    Working-Class Cinema in the Age of Digital Capitalism

    WORKING-CLASS CINEMA IN THE AGE OF DIGITAL CAPITALISM MASSIMILIANO MOLLONA he story of cinema starts with workers. The film Workers Leaving The TLumière Factory In Lyon (La Sortie des Usines Lumière à Lyon, 1895) by the brothers Louis and Auguste Lumière, 45 seconds long, shows the approximately 100 workers at a factory for photographic goods in Lyon- Montplaisir leaving through two gates and exiting the frame to both sides. But why does the story of cinema begin with the end of work? Is it because, as has been suggested, it is impossible to represent work from the perspective of labour but only from the point of view of capital, because the revolutionary horizon of the working class coincides with the end of work?1 After all, the early revolutionary art avant-garde had an ambiguous relationship with capitalism: it provided both a critique of commodification whilst also reproducing the commodity form.2 Even the cinema of Eisenstein, which so subverted the bourgeois sense of space, time, and personhood, at the same time standardized and commodified working-class reality with techniques of framing and editing that moulded images on the commodity form.3 Such dialectics between art and the commodity form continue to be played out in today’s digital capitalism, as exemplified by so-called ‘debt- artists’, like the hackers collective, Robin Hood, who appropriate the techniques and modes of sociality of financial capitalism to generate spaces of reciprocity and cooperation with the aim of disrupting their commodity logic, but which in fact end up reproducing it.4 The tension between critique and commodification is no less in play as the digital medium erases the specificity of cinema, the relation between its material bases and its poetics, opening up as it does to other relations – intertextual, lateral, and cross-media – that recall the synchronic aesthetics of the avant-garde.

  • Jeder Tag Ist Ein Geschenk«

    Jeder Tag Ist Ein Geschenk«

    »Jeder Tag ist ein Geschenk« Menschen | Zum Tod der großen Schauspielerin Jeanne Moreau 2003 hatte Jeanne Moreau (halb im Scherz) einen künstlerischen Wunsch geäußert, der sich allerdings nie erfüllt hat: »Shakespeares Lear. Den spiele ich, wenn ich achtzig bin!« Von PETER MOHR Mit dem ›Lear‹ ist es zwar nichts geworden, doch die Blitzlichter der Fotografen zog sie bis ins hohe Alter immer noch beinahe magisch an, wie etwa bei ihrem Kurzauftritt als Ehrengast bei der Europäischen Filmpreisgala im Jahr 2007 in Berlin. Sie war nicht nur eine der wirklich großen Schauspielerinnen, sondern war auch der Schwarm einer ganzen Männergeneration, ihr Name wird in einem Atemzug mit Marlene Dietrich und Greta Garbo genannt, vom liebeshungrigen Luder bis zur rachsüchtigen Ehefrau hat sie alles verkörpert, und ihre eigene Vita würde genug Stoff für einen abendfüllenden Kinofilm hergeben. Jeanne Moreau, die am 23. Januar 1928 in Paris als Tochter eines Hoteliers geboren und als 20-jährige bereits in die ehrwürdige Comédie-Française aufgenommen wurde, hat als Schauspielerin nicht nur die großen Regisseure, sondern auch als Privatperson viele Prominente fasziniert: Louis Malle, Orson Welles, John Frankenheimer, Jean-Louis Richard (aus der Ehe stammt Sohn Jérome, der heute ein erfolgreicher Maler ist), Modeschöpfer Pierre Cardin, der 14 Jahre jüngere Schriftsteller Peter Handke, und der Regisseur Tony Richardson (die Affäre führte zu seiner Scheidung von Vanessa Redgrave) waren ihre Lebensgefährten. Zwar hatte Jeanne Moreau Anfang der 1950er Jahre auf der Theaterbühne unter der Regie von Peter Brook in Tennessee Willliams‘ ›Die Katze auf dem heißen Blechdach‹ und an der Seite von Lino Ventura und Jean Gabin als Luder Josy in ›Wenn es Nacht wird in Paris‹ (1953) für Furore gesorgt, doch der große Durchbruch gelang ihr ausgerechnet unter der Regie eines Debütanten – in Louis Malles ›Fahrstuhl zum Schafott‹ (1957).

    JEANNE MOREAU: NOUVELLE VAGUE and BEYOND February 25 - March 18, 1994

    The Museum of Modern Art For Immediate Release February 1994 JEANNE MOREAU: NOUVELLE VAGUE AND BEYOND February 25 - March 18, 1994 A film retrospective of the legendary French actress Jeanne Moreau, spanning her remarkable forty-five year career, opens at The Museum of Modern Art on February 25, 1994. JEANNE MOREAU: NOUVELLE VAGUE AND BEYOND traces the actress's steady rise from the French cinema of the 1950s and international renown as muse and icon of the New Wave movement to the present. On view through March 18, the exhibition shows Moreau to be one of the few performing artists who both epitomize and transcend their eras by the originality of their work. The retrospective comprises thirty films, including three that Moreau directed. Two films in the series are United States premieres: The Old Woman Mho Wades in the Sea (1991, Laurent Heynemann), and her most recent film, A Foreign Field (1993, Charles Sturridge), in which Moreau stars with Lauren Bacall and Alec Guinness. Other highlights include The Queen Margot (1953, Jean Dreville), which has not been shown in the United States since its original release; the uncut version of Eva (1962, Joseph Losey); the rarely seen Mata Hari, Agent H 21 (1964, Jean-Louis Richard), and Joanna Francesa (1973, Carlos Diegues). Alternately playful, seductive, or somber, Moreau brought something truly modern to the screen -- a compelling but ultimately elusive persona. After perfecting her craft as a principal member of the Comedie Frangaise and the Theatre National Populaire, she appeared in such films as Louis Malle's Elevator to the Gallows (1957) and The Lovers (1958), the latter of which she created a scandal with her portrayal of an adultress.
