Hôtel Amour - 8, Rue Navarin, 75009 Paris Francesco Francavilla's Sketch Blog Film - Table of Contents After Fear and Desire, the Kubrick analyses are shot by shot, with screen grabs from each. I've been asked why I don't do videos for Youtube or podcasts, but I've opted to handle the analyses in this manner, which would be impossible in a podcast or on Youtube, considering the scope of the project and the amount of cross-analysis of shots done. I began putting the analyses online in 2007, beginning with Kubrick's The Shining and Antonioni's Blow-up. The Killing was completed and added in 2016, as well was a more intensive look at Fear and Desire added in 2016. Barry Lyndon is in the works but may take a while. Kubrick Day of the Fight, Kubrick's first film effort, a documentary.

What Tom Waits's Movies Taught Me About Style If a gross of advertisers had decided to create a personification of the American 20th century, an avatar of both popular culture and of the sputtering engine of manifest destiny, Tom Waits might be the grizzled outcome. Wheezing like a burst water main, growling for all the stray dogs, sun-faded pickup trucks, and broken Coke bottles drunk in pursuit of the dream, his music scratches away at the backdoor of a house with the porch and the white picket fence. His vocal style tends to have a divisive effect: you’re either hooked, as I am, by the sound of a man screaming and balladeering his guts out, or alternatively you find him as appealing as a bawling toddler screeching their guts out as they drag their tiny fingernails over a blackboard. Either way, Waits’s music is viscerally evocative of a particular slice of Americana, to a degree only matched by Springsteen, his East Coast counterpart. Waits apparently flying a helicopter in At Play In The Fields Of The Lord. Or this: Straitjackets

David Cronenberg Says Social Media Is Killing the Role of | Criticwire By Max O'Connell | Criticwire January 5, 2015 at 2:14PM Cronenberg and others believe that the role of the professional critic has been diminished by Rotten Tomatoes and other sites. Are they right? The argument that the role of the professional critic is dying is nothing new (Armond White just lamented the profession's "loss of independence" a few hours ago), but it certainly has a number of new voices adding to it. In an article for The Canadian Press, Victoria Ahearn spoke with people like David Cronenberg, Canadian critic Richard Crouse, "The Interview" co-director Evan Goldberg, "Young Ones" director Jake Paltrow and more about the diminishing role of the critic. Even now if you go to Rotten Tomatoes, you have critics and then you have 'Top Critics', and what that really means is that there are legitimate critics who have actually paid their dues and worked hard and are in a legitimate website connected perhaps with a newspaper or perhaps not.

A veces, pasar el día es un trámite necesario para llegar a la hora mágica del verano, cuando el calor se disipa y esperamos ver en el horizonte ese rayo verde que casi nunca aparece.

Curriculum Vitae Stanley Kubrick's masterpiece, "The Shining": What You May (or may not) Have Seen Hidden In The Shining For over thirty years Stanley Kubrick’s adaptation of “The Shining” has left perplexing questions in the minds of everyone who’s seen it; and time has been powerless to put this enigmatic movie out of our collective consciousness. ...............I hope you'll enjoy what I’ve written here. . Stanley Kubrick’s “Shining” was created with the sole purpose of leaving audiences searching for answers to a mystery that has no solution. No one in filmmaking has ever done anything like this.
