Films Worth Talking About Home of the Edinburgh 3 NOV 17 30 NOV 17 1 | 3 NOV 17 - 30 NOV 17 88 LOTHIAN ROAD | FILMHOUSECinema.COM FILMS WORTH TALKING ABOUT HOME OF THE EDINBURGH INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL One man’s remake; another man’s reimagining… When I first heard that Sir Kenny Branagh was remaking Sydney Lumet’s 1973 apogee of the All-Star Cast film vehicle (or, perhaps, as he might prefer, reimagining of the 1934 Agatha Christie novel) Murder on the Orient Express, I confess I did pause to consider the wisdom of doing so, from the point of view of potential audience member, given that much of the enjoyment of a whodunnit is finding out who indeed did do it, and if you know that already, well… Which got me thinking about films I’ve watched more than once for which it could be said the destination is at least as important as the journey, and of the number of times I have been heard to say: “I know I’ve seen this, but I can’t remember for the life of me what happens at the end!” (With a memory like mine, whodunnits are the gift that keeps on giving...) Then I remembered how much I enjoyed watching TV’s And Then There Were None from a couple of years back, even though I had not forgotten that it was - SPOILER ALERT! SPOILER ALERT! - the old Judge wot done it. And whatever happened to the All-Star ensemble film that once seemed so prevalent? Could it be that with how much these big names get paid these days – however unfairly split across the sexes – few can afford to make them!? Beyond MOTOE, from 3 Novmeber we have a very special engagement with David Lean’s classic/epic Lawrence of Arabia screening in a brand new and glorious 70mm print; Call Me By Your Name, which you really should not miss, continues; and I’d heartily recommend you catch Annette Bening as Gloria Grahame in Film Stars Don’t Die in Liverpool, Armando Iannucci’s often supremely funny The Death of Stalin and Yorgos (The Lobster) Lanthimos’ The Killing of a Sacred Deer; and our annual French Film Festival returns, marking, wait for it, its first quarter century… Zut alors!

  • Sight & Sound Films of 2007
    Sight & Sound Films of 2007 Each year we ask a selection of our contributors - reviewers and critics from around the world - for their five films of the year. It's a very loosely policed subjective selection, based on films the writer has seen and enjoyed that year, and we don't deny them the choice of films that haven't yet reached the UK. And we don't give them much time to ponder, either - just about a week. So below you'll find the familiar and the obscure, the new and the old. From this we put together the top ten you see here. What distinguishes this particular list is that it's been drawn up from one of the best years for all-round quality I can remember. 2007 has seen some extraordinary films. So all of the films in the ten are must-sees and so are many more. Enjoy. - Nick James, Editor. 1 4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days (Cristian Mungiu) 2 Inland Empire (David Lynch) 3 Zodiac (David Fincher) = 4 I’m Not There (Todd Haynes) The Lives of Others (Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck) 6 Silent Light (Carlos Reygadas) = 7 The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford (Andrew Dominik) Syndromes and a Century (Apichatpong Weerasethakul) No Country for Old Men (Ethan and Joel Coen) Eastern Promises (David Cronenberg) 1 Table of Contents – alphabetical by critic Gilbert Adair (Critic and author, UK)............................................................................................4 Kaleem Aftab (Critic, The Independent, UK)...............................................................................4 Geoff Andrew (Critic

A story about our secrets, about confinement, about the isolation we all share…." - Philippe Claudel SYNOPSIS Léa (Elsa Zylberstein) and Juliette (Kristin Scott Thomas) are sisters. The film begins with Léa, the younger sister by fifteen years, picking Juliette up at the airport. We soon realize that the two sisters are almost complete strangers to each other. Juliette has just been released from prison after serving a long sentence. Léa was still a teenager when Juliette, a doctor, was convicted of the murder of her six-year-old son. Léa contacted Juliette when she was released and suggested that Juliette come to live with her. Juliette had no particular desire to see her sister again. Luc (Serge Hazanavicius), Léa’s husband, is quite reserved, almost hostile, about Juliette’s presence under their roof.

Tout le cercle du spectacle en effervescence, de la Diva jusqu'au librettiste, va essayer de se faire engager, afin d'entrevoir les quelques mois de tranquillité indispensables à ces artistes aux abois. Une magnifique occasion d'illustrer les pétillantes ressources des artistes de l'époque mais aussi leurs travers très humains, et leurs préoccupations très quotidiennes... peut-être pas si éloignées de celles des intermittents d'aujourd'hui ! Là où l'on peut espérer que le talent fait la différence, on s'aperçoit que les us et coutumes de la scène doivent être respectés à la lettre, sous peine de cruelle exclusion de ce petit monde. Un monde où la séduction, l'envie, l'engagement, la jalousie, frappent ceux qui se révèlent affaiblis par une situation fragilisante d'insécurité de l'emploi, et qui sont dévorés dans le même temps par l'irrépressible besoin d'être artiste.
