	Les Cousins / The cousins / 1959 / film review
		This ability to alter the mood of the film so subtly and effectively is one of Chabrol’s great skills as a director and is used to far greater effect in some of his subsequent thrillers.
		In Les Cousins, the situation is cleverly reversed.
		Both films seem to side with the outsider and condemn the society that rejects him, although it is perhaps disappointing that, in both cases, that the outsider is destroyed without having any significant impact on the society that crushed him.

	Review/Film; 'Cousins,' an Adaptation - New York Times
		''Cousins,'' which opens today at Loews New York Twin and other theaters, is a coarse, raucous, furiously misguided effort to substitute apples for oranges, the oranges in this case being the deceptively casual-looking (and in fact coolly pragmatic) moral attitudes of the story's original French characters.
		In France, according to the original film, it is possible for a woman to return home from an adulterous liaison, be met by her habitually unfaithful husband, and tell him point-blank, ''Not one word, or I leave forever.'' And have this put an end to the conversation.
		''Cousin, Cousine'' was gently directed and featured an enchanting foursome (Victor Lanoux and the radiant Marie-Christine Barrault as the starry-eyed lovers, Guy Marchand and Marie-France Pisier as their hapless spouses) in the leading roles.

		With style and humor, he identifies the genre's central motif—“The city as labyrinth is key to entering the psychological and aesthetic framework of the film noir”—and goes on to analyze more than three hundred films from 1940 to the present.
		Imbuing the language of film with the lyricism so praised in his novels, Christopher draws from his vast knowledge of literature to explore the genre's numerous influences.
		Mark Cousins uses his experience as film historian, producer, and director to capture the shifting trends of movie history, relating how filmmakers influenced each other; how contemporary events influenced them; how they challenged established techniques and developed new technologies to enhance their medium.

	Margaret Cousins Papers, Biographical Sketch
		When Cousins left the university in 1926, she found employment as an apprentice on her father's SOUTHERN PHARMACEUTICAL JOURNAL in Dallas, advancing to associate editor in 1930 and editor in 1935.
		Keenly aware of the power of the press in influencing public values, she sought to "live in a manner worthy of emulation." This strong sense of moral imperative and vocational devotion was the driving force behind her efforts as an editor.
		In her youth, Cousins had envisioned writing novels of social history, but the course of her career led her to write "simply to entertain." As a writer, Cousins was known for her Romantic short stories, which appeared in many popular women's magazines, including GOOD HOUSEKEEPING, COSMOPOLITAN, MCCALL'S, and REDBOOK.

	kamera.co.uk - book review - The Story Of Film by Mark Cousins - reviewed by Deryck Swan
		After commenting in a national newspaper that film literature was lacking an accessible, clearly delineated and jargon-free history of the moving image Cousins received an offer from Pavilion Publishing to produce exactly that.
		By examining such films that changed the language of cinema, as opposed to the ones that have gained the most cultural popularity (although these two very occasionally converge), Cousins' book takes an original tour of world filmmaking that offloads equal prominence on American, Iranian, Chinese and Indian cinema alike.
		Ozu's truly classic visual style (Cousins tries hard to redeem the notion of 'classic' from its current state of overuse in film writing) was the apotheosis of balanced simplicity and inspired the work of future directors and screenwriters such as Robert Bresson and Paul Schrader.

	New York Cool
		The film opens before the two cousins have begun their killing spree; back in a more innocent time, a simpler time, when a good night out on the town still just consisted of a few drinks, a few laughs, and some kidnapping and forced prostitution.
		Chloe Sevigny's meaty appearance is withheld until the final minutes of the film, where she serves to justify and explain the entirety of the previous hour and a half.
		In contrast to the film's buzzing inception, the camera is never as dynamic in the body of the film as it is in the opening five minutes.

	COUSINS IN ARMS
		The film's soundtrack, which has been a successful album release in its own right, was the province of engineer, programmer and producer Gareth Cousins, an ex-Abbey Road engineer who now freelances from his base in Stratford-Upon-Avon.
		Cousins entered the audio industry in 1986, at the relatively late age of 22 after getting a degree in electronics.
		Although the film was conceived with the original Charles Aznavour track, it was thought that it wouldn't appeal to the American market, and so Costello was asked to perform it.

		Shortly thereafter Kay Cousins died and her dream of bringing this story to the screen seemed, for thirty years, to have died with her.
		When I heard that Spielberg was making a film about this subject I had a moment of hope that somehow he had found Kay's screenplay and it was finally going to be a reality.
		The film "indicates" what it wants to say, but never really gets beyond that and the enormous cinematic machine it employs, to get to the real emotional heart of the people of this truly important historical moment.

	Interview with Filmmaker Chelsea Spear of "Alphabet.", 5/02
		Described as a "neo-realistic, Truffaut-inspired response to the children's book 'The Phantom Tollbooth,'" the film is a character sketch that follows Emily, a 12-year-old math genius who plays the French horn, on a typical morning in her life as she begins to see the connections between math and music.
		I also had an opportunity to briefly intern with a filmmaker whose films mean a lot to me, though he had to let me go because he wasn't in the office long enough to justify having an intern.
		In some ways, the film is my way of giving myself those things I wish I had when I was her age.

		Dopo due anni di servizio militare, i suoi film presero tutti la stessa formula: belle ragazze, luoghi esotici, scazzottate e canzoni.
		Gli unici due film che si aggiunsero furono due documentari riguardanti la sua carriera musicale: il primo fu "That's the way it is", che lo riprende durante i preparativi per il ritorno sul palcoscenico; e il secondo "Elvis on Tour" documenta 15 giorni di concerti attraverso gli Stati Uniti.

	IN THIS WORLD
		As the film progresses, it becomes clear that the purveyors' perfidy and greed are matched only by their shameless disregard for the fate of their cargo.
		It's a clumsy attempt to straddle the line between narrative and non-fiction film, and to graft onto the characters' situation portent that is already immanent.
		In preparation for making the film, they interviewed refugees who immigrated to Britain, some of whom had made the last leg of their trip as Jamal does--through the Channel Tunnel from the former refugee camp in Sangatte.

	indielondon.co.uk - books - The Story of Film, preview
		Film critic, producer and presenter, Mark Cousins shows how film-makers are influenced both by the historical events of their times, and by each other.
		The Story of Film is divided into three main epochs: Silent (1885–1928), Sound (1928–1990) and Digitial (1990-Present), and within this structure films are discussed within chapters reflecting both the stylistic concerns of the film-makers and the political and social themes of the time.
		Film is an international medium, so as well as covering the great American films and film-makers, the book explores cinema in Europe, Africa, Asia, Australasia and South America, and shows how cinematic ideas and techniques cross national boundaries.

	Cousins (UK - DVD R2) in Reviews > Video Discs at DVDActive
		Danson effortlessly carries the film as its centrepiece, Rossellini reminds everyone that she really should regularly appear in far better films than this, Petersen is suitably slimy and Young bitches away which clenched teeth as only she can.
		In such a dialogue driven film, the lack of a surround track is not the end of the world; the trio of wedding sequences display some nifty channel separation from the front of the soundstage and Ted Danson’s celebrated slurred style of delivering dialogue is always crystal clear from the centre speaker.
		Presented by Paramount on another disc that’s as annoyingly average as the film itself, Cousins is nevertheless not the worst way of spending a wet and windy Sunday afternoon and may even make a decent DVD purchase for Ted Danson devotees or those in the dating game.

	The Tech - Jealousy over spouses forges new; more successful frienship in Cousins
		Inspired by Cousin, Cousine, the hit French film of 1975, Cousins stars Ted Danson of Cheers fame as Larry Kozinski, a married dance instructor who is afraid of success.
		The most revealing shot of the film occurs when Larry and Maria, deciding the fate of their friendship, walk down a flight of stairs.
		Cousins, however, gets so many aspects of human nature and love right that this fault should not stop anyone from viewing this film.

	VH1.com : Movies : Person : Claude Chabrol : Biography
		The film, which revolved around the intrusion of a man (Jean-Louis Trintignant) upon a lesbian relationship, was a critical success, and heralded a new, more mature phase of Chabrol's career.
		Based upon the true story of a 19-year-old girl (Huppert) who was convicted of poisoning her father and attempting to kill her mother, the film achieved the remarkable feat of lending its unlikable protagonist a degree of three-dimensional sympathy, and drew favorable comparisons to Hitchcock, whose work provided Chabrol with a constant source of inspiration.
		Chabrol's films of the 1980s and '90s largely suffered in comparison to his earlier work; some critics noted that they lacked the unity and quality that gave the director's films of the 1950s and '60s such enduring resonance.

		This is the story of film told passionately, from the perspective of the filmmakers themselves.
		In keeping with Cousins' international perspective, the images are drawn as much from the less familiar worlds of African, Asian and Middle Eastern cinema as from the work of Western directors.
		As mentioned, an important factor in Cousins' narrative is the apparent network of influences he refers to throughout a Century of filmmaking.
