  • The Last Show – a Prairie Home Companion»
    KirchenKino – 21. Mai 2007 in Bern Impulsreferat «The Last Show – A Prairie Home Companion» Charles Martig «The Last Show» (USA 2006) ist ein Film des Abschieds – ein wehmütiger Blick zurück auf eine Lebenswelt, die es nicht mehr gibt. Eingeführt werden wir durch eine Stimme aus dem Off: Es handelt sich um einen schwarz gekleideten, etwas dubiosen Privatde- tektiv mit dem sprechenden Namen «Guy noir». Diese Kunstfigur, die direkt dem Film noir entsprungen scheint, weiss, dass heute Abend die letzte Vorstellung der Live- Radio-Show statt findet. Er kommentiert dieses Faktum mit einem lakonischen Ton in der Stimme und mit einer seltsam überheblichen Distanziertheit. Mit dem Hausdetektiv betreten wir das Fitzgerald Theater in St. Paul, Minnesota und lungern mit ihm hinter den Kulissen herum. Der eitle Trottel vom Dienst steht eigentlich allen im Weg und be- wegt sich so ungeschickt durch das Set, dass wir bald Schmunzeln, bald Mitleid haben mit dieser Figur. Es handelt sich um eine umwerfende Satire des «Private Eye», der alles im Griff haben will und doch immer nur von den Ereignissen getrieben wird. Denn am Lauf der Dinge kann auch er nichts ändern. Es handelt sich um eine satirische Ü- berhöhung des Privatdetektivs, den Robert Altman bereits in den «The Long Goodbye» aufs Korn nahm. Mit «Guy Noir» sind wir bereits mitten in der Geschichte. Sie spielt sich vor allem hinter den Kulissen ab. Da befinden wir uns unverhofft in den Requisiten und Garderoben von «A Prairie Home Companion» – wörtlich beim Gefährten in der Prärie, der das eigentli- che Zuhause in den weiten des mittleren Westens ausmacht.

  • Robert Altman - Muszkieter
    Altman Rafał Syska Robert Altman - muszkieter Gracz Jego odporność na wszelkie niepowodzenia obrosła już anegdotami. Jako miłośnik przeróżnych gier hazardowych zawsze ryzykował i nierzadko przegrywał w pokera, w ruletkę, na wyścigach konnych. Zakładał własne wytwórnie filmowe i bankruto­ wał, kręcił dzieła, z których amerykańska publiczność wychodziła zakłopotana, cza­ sem firmował projekty interesujące wyłącznie garstkę pasjonatów. W chwilach klęski zwykł nonszalancko wzruszać ramionami i wracać do gry, by na rubieżach Holly­ woodu zrealizować kolejny film. Na gruncie amerykańskiego kina Robert Altman był postacią szczególną, emblematem filmowego autora, nestorem wśród klasyków kontestacji, a zarazem filmowcem do ostatnich lat życia zachwycającym żywotnością i pomysłowością. W swej postawie bywa wiązany z europejskim wyobrażeniem reżysera-indywi- dualisty, choć paradoksalnie tematyka jego utworów, społeczno-polityczna refleksja i barwna mitologia wypływały z amerykańskiej kultury, z niej czerpiąc materiał do satyr i ironii. Wprawdzie w filmografii Altmana Znajdziemy utwory reprezentujące niemal wszystkie gatunki filmowe, ale reżyser zawsze traktował tradycję kina holly­ woodzkiego jedynie w kategoriach matrycy zjadliwej krytyki. Stąd filmy Altmana rzadko stawały się komercyjnymi sukcesami, a sam reżyser nigdy nie sięgnął po I 214 Rafał Syska regulaminowego Oscara — choć przez krytykę już w latach siedemdziesiątych zo­ stał uznany za mistrza filmowej narracji, wprowadzającego niemal awangardowe rozwiązania dramaturgiczne i trudną do podrobienia poetykę. Robert Altman zajął więc poczesne miejsce w klubie wielkich-pominiętych (obok takich klasyków jak: Howard Hawks, Charles Chaplin czy Alfred Hitchcock — a współcześnie obok: Stanleya Kubricka, Sidneya Lumeta czy Johna Boormana), którzy choć wprowa­ dzili do twórczości hollywoodzkiego kina blask geniuszu, liczyć mogą co najwyżej na statuetkę za całokształt (co w przypadku Altmana zdarzyło się w 2006 roku).

Ron Mann's new documentary "ALTMAN" is an in-depth look at the life and times of filmmaker Robert Altman (M*A*S*H, McCabe and Mrs. Miller, Nashville, The Player, Gosford Park, and many more.) While refusing to bow down to Hollywood's conventions, or its executives, Altman's unique style of filmmaking won him friends and enemies, earned him world-wide praise and !occasionally scathing criticism, and proved that it IS possible to make truly independent films.! ! !INTRODUCTION! Maverick. Auteur. Rebel. Innovator. Storyteller. Rambler. Gambler. Mad man. Family man. !Director. Artist.! Robert Altman$s life and career contained multitudes. This father of American independent cinema left an indelible mark, not merely on the evolution of his art form, but also on the western zeitgeist. Altman, Canadian director Ron Mann$s new documentary, explores and celebrates the epic fifty-year redemptive journey of one of the most important and !influential filmmakers in the history of the medium.! The very term “Altmanesque” has come to denote a cinematic style characterized by dark humor, chaotic choreography, overlapping and sometimes murky dialogue, multi-layered storylines, iconoclastic characters, omniscient cinematography, and a seat-of-the-pants ensemble approach to imagining and crafting a film.

  • Moma PAYS TRIBUTE to MAVERICK FILMMAKER ROBERT ALTMAN with a CAREER RETROSPECTIVE
    MoMA PAYS TRIBUTE TO MAVERICK FILMMAKER ROBERT ALTMAN WITH A CAREER RETROSPECTIVE Robert Altman Retrospective to Feature 50 Programs Robert Altman December 3, 2014–January 17, 2015 The Roy and Niuta Titus Theaters NEW YORK, October 9, 2014—The Museum of Modern Art presents a career retrospective of the maverick film and television director Robert Altman (American, 1925–2006)—comprising 50 programs, including theatrical features, television films, cable series, and rarely seen music videos, industrial shorts, and documentary pieces—from December 3, 2014, to January 17, 2015. Altman’s work over four decades, beginning in the 1970s, came to define the spirit of American independent film. His essential films include the groundbreaking anti-war satire MASH (1970); the unorthodox Western McCabe and Mrs. Miller (1971); the disaffected portrait of Bicentennial America Nashville (1975); the film noir update The Long Goodbye (1973); the avant-garde picture 3 Women (1977); the waggish Hollywood exposé The Player (1992); the adaptation of stories by Raymond Carver Short Cuts (1993); and his final work, A Prairie Home Companion (2006), a collaboration with radio personality Garrison Keillor. Distancing himself from mainstream Hollywood formulas, Altman produced films in what has been described as “anti-genres,” including revisionist takes on romantic comedy (A Perfect Couple, 1979), teen films (O.C. & Stiggs, 1987), psychological thrillers (Images, 1972), and historical dramas (Buffalo Bill and the Indians, or Sitting Bull’s History Lesson, 1976). His penchant for improvisation and innovative use of natural, overlapping dialogue became directorial signatures, most elegantly realized in his later film Gosford Park (2001), which served as a model for writer Julian Fellowes’s successful ITV/PBS series Downton Abbey (2010–).
