These shorts show that Akerman is as much a visual artist as a maker of narrative films, and she’s done a lot of video installations for art galleries lately, but Jeanne Dielman is clearly her magnum opus, at least for the time being. It’s really lovely because I think the intent is clear: to remedy our souls, to become better people, to reach out to each other.

I start my work the moment I’m cast, and I start assembling research materials, images, and music, you name it, because I respect the work that much. Yes it was different in Window Shopping [also known as Golden Eighties] first of all because the script was a normal one so when we start to rehearse she could propose something.

Maar dat wil niet zeggen dat dat idee ook werkt. Year of publication: 1979. The filmmaker’s risky mixture of comedy and violence clearly owes a debt to David Lynch as well—a debt that’s acknowledged by Robert Forster’s presence here in his final role before his death. Cummings doesn’t have Lynch’s formal daring, but he has reinvigorated an oft-told tale with personal, thorny preoccupations. Also included is Saute Ma Ville (1968), the 13-minute film with which Akerman launched her career at the age of 18. But they’re unrepresentative of a tape that’s entirely a pose. Given that it might be a while before we can see a show live on stage again, I’m glad to hear there are innovations happening. Because you need somebody to reach out to you right now. Philosophically, Jeanne Dielman is close in spirit to the work of the great British television director Alan Clarke. You take people like me and my comrades Robert O’Hara, Dominique Morisseau, and Lynn Nottage to do that. I’m setting it up with Susan Stroman to direct it, and I’m the executive producer.

Sophia Ordaz, The Price of Tea in China is Detroit rapper Boldy James’s third studio album and his third collaboration with production polymath the Alchemist. Launched on the anniversary of that seminal projection in Cannes, this still skeletal website aims at becoming in the coming months a reference, and a key resource for all those who study, research, love, … I also put a bit of my soul into it.

Everything about it is just dialed up and elevated. Claire Denis’ Beau Travail (1999) was 2012’s newcomer. She thought it was probably the most phenomenal translation of his work, so I feel like it’s in my bones. John Boyega’s visceral, simmering, tightly constrained acting was no less remarkable, and his performance in Red, White and Blue reflected the teeth-gritting rage and anxiety many of us felt over the course of this unusual year. I think Cutler knows his role, which is actually to be Ma’s proxy. Then, our sympathies are stirred again as the man and his wife, also naked, lay waste to the intruders, in a spectacularly bloody scene that’s punctuated by a shot of the couple inside the home, standing side by side in protective stances with rifles in hand. Some of these cronies (Gunna, Lil Uzi Vert, Young Thug) appear alongside him, but never extraneously. I realized as I was going through your work that I actually saw you in the London production of the Kander and Ebb musical The Scottsboro Boys. Like any great character actor, Colman Domingo’s name might not be as well known as those given above-title billing in the projects he chooses, but his performances pack a disproportionate punch in comparison to his screen time. (When I received them, I formed an image of Akerman at her computer, straight-backed as the sun starts to come up in Paris, filled with … unspecified anxiety? Staring at potatoes that will have to be peeled for some meal or other?) She was married to Sonia Wieder-Atherton. It’s an elusive freak-out in the key of a Val Lewton production, with a lonely western-like atmosphere that reflects the protagonists’ disappointments. And in testament to this seemingly perpetual cycle of violence, Lee fills the space after the song ends with photographs of others killed since this performance was filmed, including Ahmaud Arbery, George Floyd, and Breonna Taylor, alongside a wall of text printing a full screen of names that point to an urgent message at the bottom of the frame that screams “AND TOO MANY MORE.” Jake Cole, In Another Round, Mads Mikkelsen’s Martin and his buddies seek refuge from their crisis of masculinity through alcohol, by never being sober enough to feel a thing.

The film’s most harrowing elucidation of this theme comes in a scene on a public street, where a Ukrainian loyalist, tied to a pole by a pair of armed separatists, endures various humiliations at the hands of a growing mob of passersby, one of whom decides to record the grisly spectacle with his smartphone. On “Surf and Turf,” Boldy proves his skill as a storyteller and wordsmith, disclosing what it’s like to deal drugs while having a son to care for and spewing impressive verses laden with both internal and end rhymes: “Drunk in a Porsche, trunk full of corpse/Dump with the torch, run for the Ford, love for my daughter/Son was the fourth, youngin’ on the run with a warrant/Mother-fuck a judge and the courts, club full of dorks.” Ordaz, Clipping’s fourth studio album, Visions of Bodies Being Burned, is an aural assault. Wes Greene, Cameras, we’re repeatedly reminded by Donbass’s mise-en-scène, are violators, as they merely augment the dangerous power of the person wielding them. Mads Mikkelsen, one of the most original and unique actors in contemporary movies, somehow operates on both poles simultaneously, while Elisabeth Moss hit cunning, despairingly operatic notes in not one but two films this year. There’s little at stake though, besides Freaky’s obsession with its own cleverness, until Vaughn’s killer, now inhabited by a teenage girl, shares a kiss with the boy (Uriah Shelton) she’s always liked and been too timid to approach. Too many unspoken words all knotted up are finally allowed to come out—not in words, because language would be futile. I think that’s why we played off each other, he pushed me toward my truth as well. Well, for Delphine it was not always easy to do the gestures I ask and only that, she told me that usually she was the one who was going to invent those gestures and add things, then we start to videotape the scenes and I show them to her, so she felt better and in a way more participating. C hantal Akerman’s 1975 experiment in film form, Jeanne Dielman, 23, Quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles, is an astonishing work of subtextual feminism which has to count as one of the seminal films of the 1970s.As esteemed critic Manny Farber noted, Akerman’s portrait of the daily household routines and self-imposed patterns of a Belgian single mother successfully merged such diverse … I realized that’s probably why people can see it as something that is quite holistic, trying to communicate my soul through these words in this moment.

We are now at the half-way point between the the 2012 and 2022 polls. David Byrne covers Janelle Monáe’s “Hell You Talmbout,” an enraged lament for black people slain by cops and white supremacists that’s given added emotional impact by Spike Lee cutting away to blown-up photographs of the men and women named in the song. Whereas Akerman uses stasis to evoke Jeanne’s plight, Clarke used repetitive motion—notably in extended shots of socially oppressed youths walking fast—to convey the violence mounting inside them, and which they manifest by acting destructively or self-destructively. Lyons-Burt, A sorely underrated treasure of underground NYC rap for the better part of a decade, Junglepussy, a.k.a.

As Red, White and Blue’s Leroy Logan, a research scientist who leaves his profession to pursue a job with the London police and correct its racist practices from the inside out, it’s captivating to watch John Boyega, tightly coiled in his posture and temperament, stay in tune with his character’s anger as his colleagues attempt to belittle and diminish his position. Forster’s Sheriff Hadley suggests a continuation of the character he played in Twin Peaks: The Return, and Cummings fashions a swan song worthy of the legend.

I’m very proud to be a part of that legacy. 202 'France; 1975; Add to favourites.

Despite the bloodshed that eventually occurs Sarah’s home, and which is telegraphed by the opening image, this sequence is the most suspenseful in the film, as we’re led to desperately wish for this woman to experience this modicum of pleasure. Chuck Bowen, In Sound of Metal, Riz Ahmed plays Ruben Stone, a musician in recovery who’s waylaid by a sudden and drastic loss of hearing. I know a lot would depend on the blessing of Denzel Washington since he has the rights for Wilson’s Pittsburgh Cycle, but are there any other August Wilson plays you’d be eager to help bring to the screen? I’m a character actor, so I need to do all this detailing so then it can look like the work isn’t there.

But let’s be honest, let’s do the work together. Bowen, Though Victor Kossakovsky’s Gunda never subjects us to gruesome images of slaughter à la Georges Franju’s Blood of the Beasts, it nevertheless closes with a prolonged single-shot sequence that’s more heartbreaking than any depiction of the goings-on in an abattoir ever captured on film. From January 23-29, Film Forum is playing Chantal Akerman’s Jeanne Dielman, 23 Quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles (1975), a seminal film of its era, a feminist landmark and an epic meditation on the passage of time and the fact that nothing can remain the same for long, even if we map out the most structured daily routine.

If Elizabeth’s domineering ways felt so cookie-cutter up to this point, it’s only because we realize, as Burstyn reaches into the well of Elizabeth’s own trauma, not knowing what she will pull out but clearly hoping that it will point her daughter toward transcendence, that this is the only part of her that she’s ever chosen to show the world. Not all of it works, but one is hard pressed to identify a more purely enjoyable and imaginative space in hip-hop this year than Uzi’s croaking, wailing chipmunk trap. Plemons, meanwhile, is a human embodiment of inertia, at once a cliché of literate bro-dom and a man evidently, hilariously, and tragically sick of himself. A new menace cunningly conjoins Mersault’s and Anne’s worst fears: of the invasion of the private woods by outsiders and of Mersault’s manly pride as an inadvertent agent of death, respectively. Editorial Reviews. Do you know what happens to Jeanne with her second client on the second day? Not to make you give away trade secrets, but what’s the trick to being a scene-stealer, be it in Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom or Euphoria? [laughs] I could not get through it! After a drug dealer, Tito (Andrew Simpson), takes over her house and dramatically oversteps his bounds, Sarah stabs him in the eye with the vibrator, asserting herself for the first time in the film, turning a fake cock against a figurative dick who comes to resemble an extreme version of every asshole who taunts Sarah on a daily basis. The film’s last seven minutes, in which Jeanne returns to her old state of durance, is quietly devastating. One of the reliable pleasures of cinema is great acting, which is so abundant every year that it runs the risk of being taken for granted. The Alchemist’s minimalism and ear for subtle melody bestow these songs with the air of a heist movie, like on “Pinto,” where a longing string sample makes Boldy’s recollections of moving drugs seem like mythology.
