Tuesday Weld, Where Have You Gone?
...movies, in 1975, the film stood as a sad reminder of the last great period of Hollywood cinema. Technically, The Passenger wasnt a Hollywood movie (it was co-produced by Italy, France and Spain), but for all intensive purposes, it at least recalled the period when Hollywood made challenging films for adults. Frank Perrys adaptation of Joan...

L a Ronde - dir. Max Ophüls - 1950 - France
Yikes. All excitement I had for Criterion's recent release of Max Ophüls' La Ronde came to a screeching hault within the first five minutes. Having seen Roger Vadim's 1964 remake prior, I hadn't expected the Barbarella director to almost mirror Ophüls' film, or perhaps more accurately Arthur...

...movies for being "charming," "entertaining" and "endearing." Fuck. Derek is not astounding by any means, and I've heard a lot of people left the film disappointed, but it worked as a nice time capsule for Jarman's work and provided a nice outlet to hear Tilda Swinton speak. And, really, I have nothing to say about Sex & the City , so don't...

Girlfriend Is Better
With BFI's Region 2 release of Michelangelo Antonioni's The Red Desert set for 20 October, could this mean that a US release is on its way? It's been an eternity since the Image disc went out of print, and it's not like that disc was pristine by any means.

Alexandra [ Aleksandra ] dir. Alexandr Sokurov 2007 Russia/France
Maybe Ive watched too many films, but I often can get a whiff of what a directors steppin in early into a film, which is why when a director deviates from these expectations, I overexcite myself. Unfortunately, Alexandra is rather easy to decipher. Throughout the film, I kept...
