Claire Denis in Manhattan 1. _35 Shots of Rum_ 
  It was a privilege getting to attend the end of the 09 New York Film Festival and immerse myself in all things Claire Denis -- _White Material_, an official selection; _35 Shots of Rum_, which had an extended run at Film Forum; seeing Denis in person, in a HBO-sponsored "conversation with the director" session; and even... more »

Akira Kurosawa's "Drunken Angel (1948)" DVD review 
  (The National) - If the ambience of Akira Kurosawa’s 1948 breakthrough feature, "Drunken Angel" (Amazon.com: [link] ), seems strange to those who know him through his sumptuous period pieces, the richness and complexity of its characters and narrative will be immediately familiar. The contradictions both within and... more »

From _Celine_ to _I have loved you so long_ 3. 
  Not long ago, when Andrew Sarris "retired" (or was forced) from the NY Observer, there was a lot of eulogy about his titanic fights with Pauline Kael. This is before my time obviously, and I'm never a big fan of food fights; they all too often become all-consuming ego trips with neither side willing... more »

_The Hurt Locker_ 
  _The Hurt Locker_ manages to be cinema-verite and documentary-like, yet is also poetic, symbolic and full of allusions (conscious or otherwise, residing in the head of the director or just the viewer) to other films. At the same time, like all of Kathryn Bigelow's films, it feels flawed. I'd bet that this film has its genesis in the single... more »

Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin and the Rat Pack in "PEPE" (1960) on DVD at Ebay 
  Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr. and the rest of the Rat Pack appear in "PEPE" from 1960. The Las Vegas part is one of the funniest segments of the film. Among the other bright spots are Pepe walking in on Janet Leigh taking a bath in her Hollywood home as Tony Curtis is coming in the door. Then there is the scen with Jack Lemmon... more »

Ballad of A Soldier 
  i saw this '59 soviet era film on IFC and think it's great. has anyone seen it? the prokofiev-esque music is very good too, by the composer mikhail ziv, whom i had never heard of before. later i found a used dvd, but for some reason the subtitles don't work. the 3 language tracks are russian, english, and french. the dubbed english is allright i think,... more »

From _Celine_ to _I have loved you so long_ 2 
  Not to compare Desplechin to Saul Bellow, but the academic villain and neurotic femme fatales in _My Sex Life ..._ certainly have the a hint of the verve and enigma of those in _Humbolt's Gift_. The story unfolds in a messy, unorganized way, however. This weakness isn't so notable in this film, where each... more »

From _Celine_ to _I Have Loved You So Long_ 1 
  In the past couple months I have been violating my self-imposed prohibition against DVD rental (sorry Leenna), which is back in full force. A main reason was to catch some of the older Jean-Claude Brisseau films (_Celine_ and _Life the Way it is_). The one-time blue-collar protege of Eric Rohmer is so unlike those... more »

Olivier Assayas 3: Jordan, Kieslowski, _Rendezvous_, _Alice and Martin_ 
  I have never had a formal education in such things, but it seems working definition of art is that which brings out the extraordinary in the quotidian, reveals the mystery in the mundane. The artist steals fire from the gods, turns lead into gold. Viewed that way, Olivier Assayas is a deeply perverse filmmaker whose... more »
