«When most people go to the movies, the ultimate compliment for them is to say: “We didn’t notice the time pass!” With me, you see the time pass. And feel it pass. You also sense that this is the time that leads towards death. And that’s why there’s so much resistance» Chantal Akerman, Paris, 1979

Catherine Tanvier, the former tennis star who appears in Film Socialisme, has written a book, "Un film à Rolle," about working with Godard ("I'm not an actress." "But who asked you to be an actress? Be yourself.") and details his elaborate exercises for the cast... www.liberation.fr/culture/livr...

"My book aims to change how we look at films ... by starting first with all the extracted materials that filmmaking required and the industries that were required..." Brian Jacobson discusses his new book THE CINEMA OF EXTRACTIONS. bit.ly/4hK84Aa @bleudeciel.bsky.social @columbiaup.bsky.social

In Red Desert, when Giuliana walks against the flow of the striking factory workers, the image recalls a pivotal scene in Agnès Varda’s Cléo from 5 to 7. Cléo’s path intersects with a stream of pedestrians – they are almost like a funeral procession, resonating with her thoughts of mortality.

Dora Maar was a gifted and politically motivated photographer. Seemingly, however, the most important fact in her life is that she was betrayed by Picasso. 🙄😩

I do like my Lumière right next to Camille Pissarro National Gallery of Victoria

On this day in 1945, DETOUR hit theaters. No matter how many times I revisit it, Edgar G. Ulmer's bleak, grimy noir masterpiece and Ann Savage's go-for-broke performance as Vera remain startlingly, perversely enthralling.
