I was floored by "Blue." "White" tested my patience, and Red was electric.

The screenings were on three consecutive evenings at the NFT--the final moment's of Red being one of those overwhelming moments that I've only a experienced a few times in a cinema. I get goose bumps thinking of that evening--the only other films that had such an impact on first screenings were Gance's Napolean, Murnau's Sunrise and his Last Laugh and van Trier's Dancer in the Dark.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30413383.post-91435828085075735832009-02-19T15:08:00.000-05:002009-02-19T15:08:00.000-05:00Salva & Crumbs - I love Kieslowski, as you guy...Salva & Crumbs - I love Kieslowski, as you guys know well, I'm sure, and my favorite article (and perhaps least read) from last year was the one on <A HREF="http://mysterymanonfilm.blogspot.com/2008/09/visual-storytelling-kieslowskis-blue.html" REL="nofollow">Kieslwoski’s Blue</A>.

Let me add some more: Buñuel (Viridiana), Aki Kaurismaki (Drifting Clouds), Víctor Erice (The Spirit of the Beehive), of course Bergman (he Seventh Seal) and even Theo Angelopoulos (Eternity and a Day).<BR/><BR/>This is pretty hardcore-auteur stuff, though. Nothing wrong with that, of course, but it seems that few recent directors have achieved both audience and critical success while trying to go back to the roots of cinematography.<BR/><BR/>Hitch made it, but I find it hard to spot this kind of directors in mainstream cinema today.<BR/><BR/>Any ideas?Salva Rubiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11845031493458625145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30413383.post-91870023628964734812009-02-12T03:19:00.000-05:002009-02-12T03:19:00.000-05:00I'd add Kieslowski, ScreenScriber.

I'm usually puzzled by whatever he's doing when I'm watching it, and it always hits me subconsciously later on and I suddenly feel drained, with the exception of the Sixth Decalogue. I had a panic attack halfway through that, because of how powerful it was.<BR/><BR/>(And it's my pleasure, MM!)Karimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02566110996161916380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30413383.post-47829240045904548442009-02-12T03:07:00.000-05:002009-02-12T03:07:00.000-05:00It might sound surprising, but once in a while a g...It might sound surprising, but once in a while a gem appears that comes back to this true spirit of cinema. <BR/><BR/>Funny enough, the film I'm refering to is almost a silent one: you guessed, it's Wall-E.<BR/><BR/>Also, check out Murnau's works for inspiration on what's really great cinema. "Sunrise" is still so powerful!Salva Rubiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11845031493458625145noreply@blogger.com
