	Bright Lights Film Journal \| Covering the Cinema
		This is a reading reinforced from the outset of the film, where after an iris opens on a ship's horn blow, the camera tilts down and we watch from a bird's-eye perspective umbrellas make their geometric way across the quay.
		Says one film critic, "the details movies are compelled to specify — the shape of the settee on which two lovers are sitting, the distance between them, the color of the wallpaper behind them — are often inconsequential" (Leitch 160).
		Demy's effort to forestall fading in turn marks the "originality" of the filmed material more so than any actual preservation could; it creates a mythic, original vibrancy that the viewer is asked to imagine — sure the colors in the new restored prints are bright, but just imagine what they used to be.

	Profile of Sundance Film Festival 2004, 02/04
		Filmed over four days, the shoot was extremely intense, Levy said, and it took her and Johnson a year to edit and complete the 37-minute color film, which premiered at the L.A. Film Festival last June.
		The film is described as "an existential horror film that showcases [Anderson’s] razor-sharp intelligence," by Trevor Goth.
		Mahaffy’s hand-cranking technique, though the film is set in the present and in color, recalls the old days of film, but is also an aesthetic he and his collaborators have embraced.

		Born in Mauritania, trained at the Moscow Film Institute, and working in France, Sissako has always put Africa at the center of his work, elaborating his narratives around the lights and the colors of his continent, even though the real subject of his films is exile.
		Kaboré's films are most often noted for his reclamation of the poetry and clarity of traditional African storytelling and for his singularly lyrical cinematic language.
		The film was selected for the Directors Fortnight at Cannes in 1994, where it received Special Mention for the Camera d'Or award and went on to win the International Critics' Award at Toronto and to earn Tlatli the Best Director citation at the All African Film Awards in 1995.

	The Last Picture Show (1971)
		The episodic, bleak and mournful film was shot on location over an eleven-week period in northwestern Texas in a dusty, wind-swept, one-horse, declining small-town that was on the verge of being forgotten in the early 1950s.
		The name of the town in the film, Anarene, located 8 miles South of Archer City, was chosen to provide correspondence to the cow-town of Abilene in Hawks' Red River (1948).
		After a stark white-on-fl title, the opening shot, symmetrical to the film's closing shot, there is a pan from right to left down the empty main street of the deserted, desolate, wind-blown, dust-bowl town of Anarene.

		The film's narrative unfolds through an elliptical stream of haunting episodes, suffused with foreboding and a conflated sense of past, present, and future.
		He has given her one of the more exciting film vehicles of the year, a story of fear and sexual inhibition in a young woman.
		The film editing and the use of color to suggest the drabness of the house and countryside around are relentless in their pursuit of tension.

		The Harvard Film Archive is honored to welcome Merzak Allouache, this year's recipient of the eighth Genevieve McMillan and Reba Stewart Fellowship for Distinguished Filmmaking.
		The young fundamentalists depicted in the film reveal themselves to be rife with hypocrisy and a mad fascination with power.
		As in his earlier films, Allouache uses an understated style of direction, relying on small details and the humanity of his characters to create tension and capture the desolation that the civil war inflicted on the Algerian people.

	Genevieve / Henry Cornelius / Kenneth More / 1953
		Genevieve is the most quintessential of British comedies, a quaint satire in which an Englishman’s love of his motorcar precedes any feelings he may have for a woman.
		The film’s vibrant colour photography dispels the myth that England in the 1950s was remorselessly drab - going by this film, this decade was just as hard on the eyes as the psychedelic sixties.
		Genevieve is vintage film comedy with a vintage cast, which has a particular appeal for any enthusiast of vintage cars.

		Among the film's plethora of small pleasures are Joyce Grenfell as a wry hotel proprietress and Arthur Wontner as an elderly car fancier.
		Despite the many technical gaffes and continuity errors overlooked by director Henry Cornelius, Genevieve is a uniquely British delight from beginning to end, its charm enhanced by the uncredited harmonica score of American expatriate Larry Adler.
		The film was a moneymaker in every country that it played, and a multi-award winner in England and abroad.

	Le Repos du guerrier / Love on a Pillow / Roger Vadim
		Although this film is a little marred by Vadim’s tendency to use pretty photography and eroticism as a substitute for character depth and content, it has its good points and is worth seeing.
		As the film develops, the two poles move closer together and ultimately, after some fierce friction, converge to a compromise position which is nearer the former.
		When the film begins, Genevieve is happy: she has inherited a fortune and plans to marry her boyfriend.

	Genevieve (1953) - IMDb user comments
		What a wonderful film this is, it takes you back to an England that is no more.The four leading stars compliment each other, with the beautiful Kay Kendall leading the way and Kenneth More having to put up with her dog as well.
		This is superb film comedy, and its gentle tone is suitable for all members of the family - the ridiculous size of Suzie the St. Bernard, the 'flask' incident (filmed by the BBC, of course) and the ringing of the clock tower bell are all wonderful highlights.
		Genevieve is a 1908 Darrack(car), the McKims are on there annaul Car Rally from London to Brighton, only this time on the way back to London, its a race against ex-friend Ambrose Claverhouse.

		Genevieve Bujold in her career, like Parker, has always sought out more interesting, more challenging material.
		The fact is Parker did respect Genevieve and kind of bowed down to her because she was a grande dame of independent film.

	Jim's Reviews - The Umbrellas of Cherbourg
		Demy's films are set in self-contained, some would say hermetic, worlds, simultaneously wistful and fairy tale-like yet which contain enough of the psychological and social forces of 'real life' to constantly challenge their innate romanticism.
		Yet Demy's films consistently eschew villains; and one of his insights – which keeps his best films from cloying – is that people contain enough internal contradictions that they are quite capable, all by themselves, of keeping their romantic fantasies from being realized.
		The actors who star in those films (respectively, Marc Michel, Claude Mann, and Nino Castelnuovo) are arguably the equals in talent and appeal to his exceptional actresses (Anouk Aimee, Jeanne Moreau, and Catherine Deneuve), but those men's careers – although extensive – have not brought them roles in as many classic films.

		The film itself was a curious experiment in which all of the words were sung; Michel Legrand wrote the wall-to-wall score, which includes not only the famous main theme and other songs, but also Demy's sung dialogue, in the style of the lines used to link passages in opera.
		Demy regained control of the film a few years before his death in 1990, and I remember a summer day in 1989 when I sat with Demy and his wife, the director Agnes Varda, in the garden of their house in Paris, and they talked of restoring the film's original color.

	The Last Picture Show: Film and Video Installation in the Late '60s and Early '70s
		The essential logic of these films was modernist, reasoning that cinema, driving to its medium specificity, found itself increasingly concerned with its physicality and therefore the space of its exhibition.
		Structural film was especially vulnerable to these painterly concerns and as Peter Wollen argued, it “thus represented a displacement of concerns from the art world to the film world rather than an extension” (7).
		In film projection, where all images that pass through a lens emerge distorted, critical contemplation was built in, and the spectator, with a little conceptual help, could interpret the signs and shadows – the “ambiguous stimuli”– before him.

		For the record, the film "Genevieve" was shot in 1952 and released in 1953.
		To be precise, Genevieve was actually two Darracqs, having been built from the remains of two cars." The site suggests that the restored Genevieve was created from parts from a 1904 Darracq and a 1905 model.
		A persistent rumor running throughout Genevieve lore is that the car was at one time professionally "dated" as a 1905 model and thus was not eligible to take part in the London-Brighton.

		The film marked a directorial breakthrough for Cronenberg, who was able to continue some of the themes explored in his earlier horror films while graduating to a higher, more critically "respectable" level of artistic sophistication.
		In talking about the film, Cronenberg has said that men have been much more squeamish over this film than women, as lying on the gynocological chair is an experience that many women have gone through, yet many men have no idea what it's like.
