Agnès Varda in person at American Cinematheque

17 June 2009 6:09 PM, PDT | Pretty/Scary | See recent pretty-scary news »

Start: 06/24/2009 End: 06/27/2009 Timezone: America/Los Angeles Start: 06/24/2009 End: 06/27/2009 Timezone: America/Los Angeles If you're in Los Angeles, catch a crapload of films by legendary Varda June 24-27th 2009! A gifted and outspoken feminist and one of the most acclaimed directors anywhere in the world, Agnès Varda could be considered the prototype of today's independent filmmaker. Varda is a survivor, a stubborn and patient observer of her time and her people, like the pop singer in Cleo from 5 to 7, the lovers in Le Bonheur or the drifter in Vagabond. "I have fought so much since I started ... for something that comes from emotion, from visual emotion, sound emotion, feeling, and finding a shape for that," Varda has said...

Varda directed her first feature, La Pointe Courte, in 1954, with no formal training in filmmaking. The movie has often been identified as the film that started the French New Wave ("and a famous flop, »

The Projection Booth 3/20/09

20 March 2009 3:06 PM, PDT | MovieBlog.Ugo.com | See recent Ugo MovieBlog news »

O Glorious Weekend!  I’ve got a stack of DVDs and graphic novels and the wife is out of town.  Call it a little sad, but I’m kinda looking forward to it.  Please don’t tell her, though.  So what’s happening out there in the world today? Chris Pine as Green Lantern.  Is it true or not?  Some say yes, others say no.  Here’s what matters:  Patrick Sauriol says Yes.  I put my money on him. Five minutes of G.I. Joe were screened in Australia.  IGN has the report.  Sounds like they are relying a lot on specially-quipped suits to give the Joes “powers.” Better than midichlorians, I suppose, but not by much. Meet Winona Kirk’s midwife over at SciFiWire.  The doctor that delivers Captain Kirk in the forthcoming Star Trek film talks about shooting her scene and about wearing dots on her face.  This is, »

Bruce McDonald Wants You to Fund His Film

29 January 2009 11:21 AM, PST | Slash Film | See recent Slash Film news »

I’ve just been tempted by something very exciting over at Twitch.

For a thousand dollars, one can become be an Executive Producer on Bruce McDonald’s upcoming musical romance, A Love Supreme. Inspired by Chris Marker’s La Jetee, this won’t be “filmed” in the traditional sense, but instead be constructed from a series of around 20,000 still photographs. The film will be set in Toronto’s Little Italy and is pitched as being “about how a boy meets a girl through Jazz”. It is based upon a novel by Kent Nussey that has been compared to Camus, Beckett and Sartre. The necessary funds to complete filming seem to amount to no more than $20,000 dollars - Canadian, I assume?

Not rushing to get your checkbook? Then let me try and twist your arm with some video clips of Ellen Page and zombie invasions, as well as a short test piece of the film itself… »
