On Monday, we decide what main films will play starting that Friday. On Tuesday and Wednesday, we set the showtimes for the upcoming week and then update our website and telephone hotline.

  • Debunking Gasland, Part II

    Debunking Gasland, Part II

    Debunking Gasland, Part II Steve Team Lead Three years after the release of Gasland – a film panned by independent observers as “fundamentally dishonest” and a “polemic” – the main challenge for director Josh Fox in releasing Gasland Part II was manifest: Regain the public’s trust by discarding hyperbole and laying out the challenges and opportunities of shale development as they actually exist in the actual world. In short, do everything a documentary filmmaker should do, but which he chose not to do in Gasland. Unfortunately for those who attended the premiere of Gasland Part II this past weekend (we were there), Josh eschewed that path entirely, doubling down on the same old, tired talking points, and playing to his narrow base at the exclusion of all others. The Parker County case? It’s in there. Dimock? Probably receives more focus than anything else. Pavillion and EPA? You bet. And yes, that damned banjo of his makes an appearance or two as well. This isn’t Gasland Part II, folks. It’s Gasland Too. Sure, the sequel has some new cast members and a few new claims. Somehow, Fox discovers that shale is actually worse than he previously thought: Earthquakes. Methane leaks. Well failures. Hurricanes. Heck, viewers were probably waiting for swarms of locusts to appear – fracking locusts, to be sure. And there was plenty of spectacle, too. Yoko Ono was in the audience. So was former Rep. Maurice Hinchey (D-N.Y.), the congressman who lent his name to the infamous “FRAC Act” that Josh so desperately wants to become law.

    Directed By: Josephine Decker Written By: Sarah Gubbins Starring: Elisabeth Moss, Odessa Young, Michael Stuhlbarg, Logan Lerman

    SHIRLEY Directed by: Josephine Decker Written by: Sarah Gubbins Starring: Elisabeth Moss, Odessa Young, Michael Stuhlbarg, Logan Lerman Running Time: 107 Minutes CORNERSTONE FILMS CONTACTS: Publicity: Anna Bohlin/ [email protected] Marketing: Joanne Michael/ [email protected] SYNPOSIS Fred and Rose move to a small Vermont college town in pursuit of a job for Fred as an assistant professor of literature. The young couple receives an offer for free room and board from professor Stanley Hyman, as long as Rose agrees to spend time cleaning up the home and looking after his wife, acclaimed horror author Shirley Jackson. At first Fred and Rose detest the rocky household of the eccentric couple, but they eventually establish deep bonds with their counterparts, which will test the limits of their young love. Director Josephine Decker makes an exciting return with a biographical portrait brought alive with energy and imagination, based on a novel by Susan Merrill and screenplay by Sarah Gubbins. Shirley is a fresh take on the period drama, full of contemporary intrigue and dynamic in style. It features a stellar lead cast—Elisabeth Moss, Michael Stuhlbarg, Odessa Young, and Logan Lerman—who all return to the Festival to give another memorable performance. DIRECTOR’S STATEMENT Shirley Jackson was a wildly unorthodox human and storyteller. Encountering her work was like finding a map towards becoming the kind of artist I would like to be. Daring. Intimate. Structured yet dreamlike. Shirley’s work rides on the skin between imagined and real, seducing with its oddness and humble cracks until you can’t tell if you’re looking up the stairwell or into your own mouth.

  • A Serious Man (2009)

    A Serious Man (2009)

    A Serious Man (2009) “Receive with simplicity everything that happens” --Rashi Major Credits: Directors: Joel and Ethan Coen Script: Joel and Ethan Coean Cinematography: Roger Deakins Editing: Roderick Jaynes (pseudonym for Joel and Ethan Coen) Music: Carter Burwell Cast: Michael Stuhlbarg (Larry Gopnik); Richard Kind (Uncle Arthur); Fred Melamed (Sy Abelman); Sari Lennick (Judith Gopnik); Amy Landecker (Mrs. Samsky) Background: Following the success of No Country for Old Men (2007), the Coen brothers felt free to return to an uncharacteristically personal story that they had been thinking about for many years. Set in 1967 in an upper Midwest suburbia like the one outside Minneapolis in which they were raised, A Serious Man draws upon Joel’s and Ethan’s memories as it re-tells the Biblical tale of Job. Although generally praised by critics (earning a Best Picture nomination from the Academy under its newly expanded system of selecting ten movies instead of five), the film, perhaps not surprisingly, did not generate the same buzz as their multiple Oscar-winning Western. Nevertheless, it remains one of their most skillfully crafted works, one that manages to be both painfully funny and deeply disturbing. Its reputation will almost surely grow. Cinematic Elements: 1. The Yiddish prologue, with its narrowed frame, sepia tone, and focused lighting, evokes both the style of silent movies and the vernacular language and storytelling of the Yiddish theatre. Although the Coens have explicitly denied any relevance to the modern story, the prologue clearly resonates with the themes and tone of the rest of A Serious Man. 2. Music: The Coens again collaborate with their favorite composer, Carter Burwell, and the film’s eclectic score—from the Jefferson Airplane’s “Don’t You Want Somebody to Love” to Sidor Belarsky’s melancholy Yiddish song “The Miller’s Tears”—reinforces the film’s shifts from hallucination and dream to comedy and melodrama.
