	INTERVIEW: To Love and Die in Medellin; Schroeder Returns to Colombia with "Our Lady"
		Barbet Schroeder is, in the complete sense of the word, an international director.
		Barbet Schroeder: This is the first film to have been made on High Definition video, the same kind George Lucas is using for the film he's shooting now.
		Schroeder: It is an exhilarating experience to work with a writer and try to bring all the directing and cinematographic elements into the screenplay.

	Barbet Schroeder’s La Vallée (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Schroeder's most famous film, Idi Amin Dada, is a cold-eyed, unflinching record of a living hell, psychopathology from the inside -- and probably one of the few documentaries made recently in which censorship was exercised under threat of death and torture.
		All the more interesting, then, that his style is so apparently detached and analytical, that he shows the most curious or decadent or even murderous actions with the cool philosophical serenity of late Rossellini, or that he speaks of the "distance of love" as the happy medium between his subjects and his camera.
		In Schroeder's movie, the contrast is between a small band of French and European hippies (joined by the wife of the French consul in Melbourne), and the Mapuga tribe of Papua.

	Barrel Entertainment > Catalog > The Charles Bukowski Tapes
		When Barbet Schroeder (More, General Idi Amin Dada, Single White Female) began work on the movie Barfly, he had no idea that it would be such a struggle.
		Barbet Schroeder recalls, “I had no idea of what I might do with the material, but I didn’t want those evenings to be lost.
		Schroeder eventually completed The Charles Bukowski Tapes, a four-hour long study of the man and the music of his words.

		Barbet Schroeder's kinky little slice of sexual decadence is initially titillating and erotic, but soon turns grotesque.
		Schroeder pushes the portrayal of S&M and bondage to the limits with graphic scenes of pain, torment, and mutilation, presented with a bland detachment that makes them all the more uncomfortable to watch.
		Schroeder's creation of Ariane's dual nature can be seen through her use of a downstairs apartment for her dark fantasies and her upstairs apartment for more accepted desires.

	Barbet Schroeder - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Barbet Schroeder (born August 26, 1941 in Teheran to a Swiss diplomat father) is a movie director and producer who started his career in French cinema in the 1960s, working together with directors such as Jean-Luc Godard and Jacques Rivette.
		Schroeder's production company "Les Films du Losange", founded by him at age 23, produced some of the best-known films of the Nouvelle vague.
		Despite his many commercially successful films, Schroeder continues to be interested in making smaller films with a more limited audience, such as the adaptation of Colombian writer Fernando Vallejo's controversial novel La virgen de los sicarios (2000) or the 1974 documentary Idi Amin Dada, about the titular Ugandan dictator.

	Director is anything except desperate
		Barbet Schroeder has turned out to be one of the more idiosyncratic filmmakers working today -- almost in spite of himself.
		The 57-year-old Schroeder is unarguably a very passionate man. After all, he is notorious for once threatening to cut his fingers off in front of then-Cannon studio head Menachem Golan if Golan would not finance Schroeder's film "Barfly" (the picture was eventually made).
		In addition, his body of work is largely comprised of stories which find their main characters at some heightened end of the emotional spectrum, be it at the peak of an adrenaline rush or in the depths of substance-induced depression -- and that's perhaps the only aspect of his new film that truly rings true.

	The Washington Diplomat
		Director Barbet Schroeder began this interview by clarifying a piece of frequently reported misinformation: He is not the son of a diplomat.
		Schroeder was 6 years old when his parents moved to Colombia and spent the next five years there.
		Despite the horrors his film depicts, Schroeder describes Medellin in the most pleasant terms: "a city of eternal spring, beautiful weather all year; the people are kind and polite." Schroeder shot "Our Lady" on high-definition digital video but describes his format choice as aesthetically not economically driven.

	Welcome to Paramount Classics (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Barbet Schroeder's movie is a precise, faithful and necessary cinematographic interpretation of this dangerous and poignant story that takes place in the city 'Of the Eternal Spring'."
		In his first foreign language film in sixteen years, Schroeder's Our Lady of the Assassins illustrates the demise of Medellin, a once magnificent city, now infamous as the center of the Colombian cocaine cartel, through the eyes of a famous novelist who returns home after years of writing overseas.
		Schroeder shot the film in less than seven weeks in extreme conditions using breakthrough high-definition video to dramatize this controversial and searingly personal story.

	DVD Savant Review: General Idi Amin Dada
		Schroeder lets Amin condemn himself out of his own mouth, just as Kevin Brownlow and Andrew Mollo did their neo-Nazis in the earlier It Happened Here.
		A lengthy Barbet Schroeder interview details the circumstances of the filming and his own ambivalence toward the show - he states that Amin's announcement of a welcome wagon for hijackers may have initiated the bloody 1976 hijacking incident.
		Schroeder interestingly credits Amin himself as being the 'director' of the film, as he dictated everything to be photographed, even at one point shouting, 'film that helicopter!' Bluff, cheerful and psychotic, Amin doesn't seem to realize that he's revealing his true horrid self with each interview.

	Reel.com: Barbet Schroeder
		Director Barbet Schroeder discusses returning to the ravaged home of his childhood to film Our Lady of the Assassins.
		Schroeder portrays the intergenerational, same-sex relationship between his middle-aged protagonist Vallejo (German Jaramillo) and his adolescent lover Alexis (Anderson Ballesteros) without apologies or platitudes.
		Barbet Schroeder: In the case of Our Lady of the Assassins, it was like finding a soul brother, and as with Barfly, it was just about helping the writer to write in cinematic terms.

	Slant Magazine - Film Review: Our Lady of Assassins
		In Schroeder's careful hands, Colombia becomes a mythic land where the successful delivery of drugs to the US becomes cause for celebration.
		Schroeder understands the sad importance of the drug trade to these people and how the church has failed the country's people.
		The film is so strong it's easy to forgive Schroeder for envisioning Colombia as a playground of sexually libidinous boys in need of man-love.

	2 x Barbet Schroeder \| Film International
		More was Barbet Schroeder’s directorial debut, although he had already been working in the French cinema for a few years.
		It consists almost wholly of frontal shots of Amin addressing the unseen interviewer (Schroeder) to the side of the camera, apart from a handful of scenes of the military and Amin swimming and playing the accordion on stage with a music troupe.
		Schroeder knows that his vanity is his undoing, and he is given enough rope to hang himself but does not realize it.

	BOMB Magazine: Barbet Schroeder by Ken Foster (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Combine the laconic humor of Barfly, Schroeder's collaboration with Charles Bukowski, with the unexpected social satire of Reversal of Fortune, his study of the von Bulow affair, and you may begin to get a sense of the wildly exciting voice of this new work.
		Like many other members of Schroeder's cast, Ballesteros had no previous experience or training in acting; his only preparations for his debut role were stints in assault and robbery.
		On a break from post-production on his most recent film, Schroeder met with me to discuss, quite passionately, his return to his childhood country of Colombia to make the film, and the controversies that ensued.

		Barbet Schroeder, the Oscar-nominated director of Reversal of Fortune, made his debut with this jaundiced view of the European youth drug culture.
		Made in the late sixties, Barbet Schroeder’s (Barfly) directorial debut is a treatment of pleasure, pain and tragedy that stands apart from numerous counterculture exploitation films.
		Barbet Schroeder is not serving any script, rather he is capturing a mood, the story is incidental to the music.

	Our Lady of the Assassins
		The same kind of thing Cronenberg does with grotesquery, Schroeder does with atrocity: we are led behind the curtain to where the real ugliness lies with a casual air that defuses sensationalism and murders prurience through protagonists--at least the best ones (Charles Bukowski, Idi Amin, Claus von Bulow)--drawn from the insipid impiety of real life.
		Glued to Vallejo's side by what passes for love in a centerless world, Alexis is incapable of the self-examination and metaphorical maundering that constitutes the whole of his older lover's paradigm.
		If Schroeder's intention is to present in the main coupling a literal representation of the dichotomy already clarified by the title and the leaden juxtapositions of Catholic imagery with anarchic street violence, he's succeeded only insomuch as a blatant conceit can.

	Amazon.com: General Idi Amin Dada - Criterion Collection: DVD: Idi Amin,Fidel Castro,Golda Meir,Barbet Schroeder (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Schroeder's great skills and unflinching bravery resulted in a chilling and disturbing film that the dictator intended as propaganda, but ironically becomes a revelation of pure evil.
		Schroeder talks about how he got Amin to do that memorably bizarre cabinet meeting where he criticizes his staff for not being 'revolutionary.' This is a great film that gets into the mind of evil.
		Schroeder just lets Idi Amin be Idi Amin, and it is marvellous to watch the General expound: on war, on Uganda, on destiny, on boxing, on the Jews, on Hitler.

	Barbet Schroeder Biography :: Hollywood.com (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Schroeder is perhaps best-known in the USA for "Barfly" (1987), an engaging account of a low-life, alcohol-sodden writer not too loosely modeled on Charles Bukowski, and "Reversal of Fortune" (1990), a complex, multi-layered account of the Claus/Sunny von Bulow scandal starring Jeremy Irons and Glenn Close.
		Following his Academy Award nomination for his direction of "Reversal of Fortune", Schroeder helmed the intriguing and well-acted thriller "Single White Female" (1992), in which Jennifer Jason Leigh starred as a disturbed woman who begins to adopt the persona of her roommate (Bridget Fonda).
		Schroeder's next film was "Murder by Numbers" (2002), about a pair of high school students who commit what they think is the perfect murder and the novice FBI profiler out to track them down.

	Barfly (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Barbet Schroeder’s involvement with Beat icon Charles Bukowski netted four-hour’s worth of The Charles Bukowski Tapes (1983), a video interview in which the heavy-drinking wordsmith pontificated on anything he fancied, real or imagined.
		Bukowski and Schroeder sidestep the moralizing that plagues the juicers of The Lost Weekend and The Days of Wine and Roses, stories that knew alcoholism as slavery to the bottle.
		Schroeder wasn’t the first to see the cinematic potential in Bukowski.
