Le cinéma à l’épreuve du temps » Digital-In

Polisse est un énorme succès. Sorti il y a 3 semaines, le film flirte avec les 2 millions d’entrées alors que les critiques s’accordent presque unanimement pour saluer la qualité d’une œuvre qui respire et restitue l’air du temps.

Marilyn by Larry McMurtry | The New York Review of Books

http://www.nybooks.com/articles/archives/2011/mar/10/marilyn/?pagination=false She started as a pin-up, that medium of titillation most popular in the 1940s and 1950s. Marilyn spent hundreds of hours in front of the still camera; such was her appeal that the accomplished photographer Richard Avedon reached for superlatives when he spoke of her: “She gave more to the still camera than any actress—any woman—I’ve ever photographed….She was able to make wonderful photographs with almost any photographer, which is interesting—and rare.” In MM—Personal there is an interesting example of her extreme photogenicity, a shot of her taken from the rear—we don’t see her face at all.
Winona Ryder has this problem, and as problems go it's pretty solidly in the first-world category, she knows, but it's a problem, still: She'll be having a conversation with somebody—an interesting conversation, the kind two regular people have when they discover a mutual admiration for, like, Philip Roth's American Pastoral or something.

20 Greatest Extended Takes In Movie History - GeekWeek

The extended take or long take is the first time I noticed a filmmaker articulating cinematic space and pushing his/her desire for notions of auteurism. It was the iconic opening shot in Stanley Kubrick's A CLOCKWORK ORANGE, where we are introduced to our anti-hero Alex in an extreme close-up of his face, a smirking landscape of human evil that never blinks. We then slowly PULL BACK to reveal the Korovo Milk Bar, the surroundings that fosters said evil with its retro-futuristic decay.
