French Films I loved Godard's quotation from, and tribute to Bazin in Contempt, for example, and Godard's meditation on the coffee cup in Two or Three Things is the high point of the movie. The opening shot of a moving camera is accompanied by a moving tribute to the late André Bazin in Godard's narration. Godard and Resnais also shared Vertov's left wing politics, as did most filmmakers strongly influenced by the Soviet school of the 1920's, although Resnais' political views seem far more anarchist than Marxist. members.aol.com /MG4273/french.htm   (2510 words)

331K Are you curious why Mike Myers at the 2005 Oscars would quote André Bazin and Jean-Luc Godard about what a film is? This course will at least tell you what Bazin and Godard were discussing. Screen theory moves beyond an examination of cinematic technique (such as in courses in narrative strategies and film or broadcasting history) into larger questions of meaning and impact. Their theoretical and ad hoc statements will then be tested against a variety of films, videos, and digital media in order to question the validity of the theories as well as to question the relations between screen theory and screen practice. rtf.utexas.edu:16080 /courses/undergraduate/fall2005/331K.html   (2510 words)

I Confess - Historical Note So André Bazin, although he was not himself a "Hitchcocko-Hawksian", was surprised when the director told him in 1954 that I Confess was a failure because it lacked humor, evincing a surprising preference for his own English work in this regard (1). Verneuil actually appears to have sold the play to Hitchcock earlier than Bazin believed, in 1947 or 1948. The release of I Confess in 1953 must have seemed to the Cahiers du cinéma critics who had championed Hitchcock to be a confirmation of all their theories, because it is THE textbook example of the famous "transference of guilt" motif, enacted within the archetypal context of the Roman Catholic confessional. www.sensesofcinema.com /contents/cteq/00/10/confessbk.html   (979 words)

keyframe.org Beyond Interactive Cinema As a means of counteracting manipulation through editing, Bazin favored the deep-focus photography he found in the work of Orson Welles and others. One of the first theorists to develop a humanist approach to cinema was André Bazin. In certain early theories of cinema, the main concern was to tell a story effectively and according to the inner rules of the medium. keyframe.org /txt/interact   (979 words)

Cent ans de cinéma français Film critic André Bazin and his disciple, the young François Truffaut, were the staunchest defenders of an author's cinema in the magazine "Les Cahiers du Cinéma". The most popular actors are in their forties if not fifties: Philippe Noiret, Michel Piccoli, Yves Montand. Comme c'est bizarre" are so famous, even in English, that, in this instance, they gave the movie (in French Drôle de drame), its English title: "Bizarre, bizarre". www.diplomatie.gouv.fr /label_france/ENGLISH/DOSSIER/CINE/cent.html   (979 words)

Film Studies @ Emory University Film theorists whose work we will consider include Hugo Munsterberg, Bela Balazs, Lev Kuleshov, Vsevolod Pudovkin, Sergei Eisenstein, Dziga Vertov, Jean Epstein, Germaine Dulac, Rudolf Arnheim, Sigfried Kracauer, André Bazin, Stan Brakhage and Maya Deren. During most of his career, which extended from the silent era to the 1970s, Alfred Hitchcock was dismissed as a mere entertainer; since the mid-1960s, he has been recognized as one of the masters of world cinema. This lecture class, the first part of a yearlong course in film theory, provides a firm grounding in works on the cinema written prior to 1968. www.emory.edu /COLLEGE/FILM/ATLAS/coursef03.html   (979 words)

French Films The opening shot of a moving camera is accompanied by a moving tribute to the late André Bazin in Godard's narration. Describing the film as Symbolist is not a complaint, or an expression of bewilderment, but simply an attempt to characterize the narrative strategy of the work. The film ends with a second film of a moving camera shot, this one proceeding from Lang to his assistant Godard on screen. members.aol.com /MG4273/french.htm   (2510 words)

Eric Rohmer In 1951 he helped to found the short-lived La Gazette du Cinema with, among others, the young Chabrol, Godard, and Truffaut, and when that folded they all joined Cahiers du Cinema as radical young critics alongside the older André Bazin. In truth his films are an attempt to transfer the form and concerns of the 19th century (and sometimes earlier) novel to the cinema. The popular image of a Rohmer film is of a “comedy of manners” about a small group of well-educated, bookish, upper-middle-class young people, often on holiday at the seaside, endlessly discussing their relationships but never doing very much. www.talkingpix.co.uk /ArticleEricRohmer.html   (1822 words)

French culture cinema: Cahiers du Cinema, a tribute And if it can be said that there was a father of Cahiers du Cinéma, out of which the Nouvelle Vague was born, it was André Bazin. Cahiers writers certainly were choosy about contemporary European cinema, but one filmmaker they embraced early on was Ingmar Bergman, and Monika, or Summer with Monika as it's sometimes known, was thought to be his most beautiful film. René Allio was very important to Cahiers during their Maoist period as a shining example of a politically engaged filmmaker with a low quotient of bourgeois complacency. www.frenchculture.org /cinema/festival/programs/0110-cahiers.html   (4102 words)

Film Comment Like Bazin, he was suspicious of the leftist orientation and nostalgia for the "golden age" of silent film that dominated the old guard of French criticism. By repositioning the entire notion of cinema as an art in itself, by legitimizing the position of the director as a creative force, and by breaking down the barriers between commercial and personal filmmaking, Cahiers du Cinéma contributed to a crucially important cultural shift, one that helped reveal the 20th century to itself. Cahiers became known as an almost mythical breeding ground for new talent, a reputation that extended far beyond the directors of the New Wave to include such contemporary talents as André Téchiné, Leos Carax, and Olivier Assayas, all of whom first ventured into print as Cahiers critics. www.filmlinc.com /fcm/9-10-2001/cahiers.htm   (2193 words)

Fatih Akin: Gegen die Wand / Head On (D 2003) Romuald Karmakar, talking about film versions of theater plays on the Berlin festival press conference said he was completely on André Bazin's side. Akin does not have very much of a deliberate concept, it all seems done by intuition, every single picture of it. "Gegen die Wand" (2004; IMDB) then became his biggest hit after winning the Golden Bear at this year's Berlin Film Festival, the first German film to do so since 1986. www.jump-cut.de /germanfilmreview-headon.html   (560 words)

Illusion 24 frames per second: François Truffaut’s La Nuit Américaine This quote comes from a man whose life was saved by the cinema, who went from a juvenile delinquent and, at one point military captive for attempted desertion, to a highly regarded film critic and director, all thanks to his love for film &; and the not inconsiderable efforts of André Bazin. The title itself underscores this: a “nuit Américaine” (or “Day for Night”, the title the film was released under in English-speaking countries) is the method of light filtering whereby a daytime exterior shot can be made to appear as if it is taking place at night, albeit not always convincingly. Perhaps where La Nuit Américaine can be seen to be most successful is precisely in its ambivalence: it is no more nor less than a truthful reflection of Truffaut's own state of mind. www.sensesofcinema.com /contents/05/35/la_nuit_americaine.html   (560 words)

Cent ans de cinéma français Film critic André Bazin and his disciple, the young François Truffaut, were the staunchest defenders of an author's cinema in the magazine "Les Cahiers du Cinéma". Jean Eustache dies only a few years after directing a brutal movie The Mother and the Whore, a cry of frustration and despair. Jean Gabin and Michèle Morgan are the ideal French couple, ever since the day he murmured "T'as d'beaux yeux, tu sais!", in Port of Shadows. www.diplomatie.gouv.fr /label_france/ENGLISH/DOSSIER/CINE/cent.html   (560 words)

Jacques Demy Demy's consistency of vision itself justifies his inclusion among the “auteurs”, defined by André Bazin and François Truffaut and expanded by Andrew Sarris as distinguishing themselves with their salient visual language from mere metteurs-en-scène. Demy noted that his inspiration of this film was his own memories of the war, being evacuated from Nantes to the seaside as a boy, in Michel Caen and Alain Le Bris, “Interview with Jacques Demy”, Cahiers du cinéma, 159, October 1964, p. Demy persisted in innocence, even through his ties to the Left Bank and to his and Varda's left-leaning crowd in California, of which Jim Morrison was a member, remained. www.sensesofcinema.com /contents/directors/03/demy.html   (3059 words)

Cent ans de cinéma français Film critic André Bazin and his disciple, the young François Truffaut, were the staunchest defenders of an author's cinema in the magazine "Les Cahiers du Cinéma". In the early fifties, while Fernandel is triumphant in The Little World of Don Camillo and Gérard Philipe breaks hearts by the dozen in Fanfan the Tulip, Truffaut rages against his beloved cinema, fallen into the hands of cold and soulless technicians. She does not appear often on screen but each of her performances, from The Story of Adele H to Queen Margot, is a major event. www.diplomatie.gouv.fr /label_france/ENGLISH/DOSSIER/CINE/cent.html   (221 words)

Fatih Akin: Gegen die Wand / Head On (D 2003) Romuald Karmakar, talking about film versions of theater plays on the Berlin festival press conference said he was completely on André Bazin's side. Fatih Akin, asked how close the story of "Head On" was to his own life, gave this answer: It was a story he had to squeeze out like a pimple after years of festering. Where Karmakar is a man of intellect and thorough deliberation, Akin completely, almost blindly trusts in his story, his actors and the powers conjured up by their energy and interaction. www.jump-cut.de /germanfilmreview-headon.html   (560 words)

Better Than Good - A Tribute to Joseph H. Lewis It is with Joseph H. Lewis that the principle of mise-en-scène dear to André Bazin, founded on the shot-sequence and depth of field, finds its most perfect application while affirming a style proper to B cinema. Lewis' nickname was "Wagon Wheel Joe", a name he received early in his career when he was shooting B westerns for Universal. Lewis goes artsty-fartsy in Boys of the City, too: shooting from inside the fireplace, dollying his camera "through" walls, giving far more attention to the composition of shots and the arrangement of people and props than any of the hack Monogram directors. www.sensesofcinema.com /contents/00/10/lewistribute.html   (4455 words)
