Three filmmakers, friends from the film school days, uncover the aesthetic and storytelling choices behind Art & Popular films and how these reflect the authors’ deeper ideas on this thing of being human. Our round table debates offer the best balance between the in-depth and the informal. Três cineastas, amigos dos tempos de escola de cinema, desvendam as escolhas estéticas e narrativas por trás de filmes Art & Popular e como estas refletem as ideias mais profundas dos autores sobre essa coisa de ser humano. As nossas discussões oferecem o melhor equilíbrio entre o aprofundado e o informal.
This week we talk to "Anora" cinematographer Drew Daniels to discuss his newest collaboration with Sean Baker. Drew reflects on the trials and tribulations of the shoot as well as what makes his work with Sean Baker so rewarding.
Today we're joined by Malin Ingrid Johansson, the talented filmmaker behind the award-winning short "Deck 5B". We discuss her writing and filming process, as well as the future project Malin's currently developing.
Join us as we talk about the influential "Night of the Living Dead", George A. Romero's emblematic film. We have some problems with the film, but we also love many of its aspects. We discuss whether the zombies are actually scary or just goofy and also reflect on the allegorical elements of the narrative.
Today we discuss 1920s "The Golem", Paul Wegener's silent horror inspired on Jewish Folklore. We talk about the beauty of the images but also the flaws of the narrative. Is the film a good representation of Jewish culture? Does the romantic sub-plot work?
Hoje vamos numa road trip e encontramos a violência de "Texas Chain Saw Massacre", que nos faz refletir sobre o vegetarianismo... É um dos melhores filmes de sempre por alguma razão, e discutimos essas razões: desde as imagens aterradoras mas com uma beleza estranha, à forma como reflete sobre contexto pós-vietname e a violência na sociedade norte-americana.
Hoje é dia de revisitarmos "Bambi", o clássico intemporal da Disney. A animação é claramente o ponto alto do filme, mas achamos também inesperado a forma pouco usual como a narrativa se desenvolve. Qual é a moral da história? Este filme é mais triste que "O Rei Leão"? Como é que reflete os valores da época?
Today we are joined by Justin and Laura from the podcast "Cows in the Field" to discuss Frankenheimer's "Seconds". We discuss how the ideals of post-war America are reflected in the film, and how potent and purposeful Frankenheimer's visuals are. Would you trade your life for Rock Hudson's face? Maybe not the best idea.
Temos o nosso primeiro encontro com o senhor Fellini, discutimos o celebrado "8½". É um filme imaginativo e que reflete muito sobre a sua própria construção, mas sentimos que nunca se torna chato ou repetitivo. Refletimos sobre as intenções de Fellini e se há um lado de defesa ou ataque contra a sua própria pessoa...
Hoje discutimos o estranho e misterioso filme de Leos Carax, "Holy Motors". A excentricidade da narrativa é um dos elementos mais cativantes, assim como tentar desvendar a relevância de cada episódio, mas nem sempre nos sentimos convencidos pelos caminhos que a história segue.
