People have changed and Rossella finds no one capable of answering the obsessive question that has plagued her for some time: “How can I disappear?”

The post Hiroshi Shimizu – Jirô monogatari AKA The Tale of Jiro (1955) first appeared on Cinema of the World.

In Istenmezeje, a small village in the county of Heves, time appears to be standing still.
The majority of young people who have just finished local elementary school,
are willing to fall in line with pressure from the community,
and follow the paths taken by their parents and grandparents:
the boys go to work in the mine, the girls get married.

Judit Elek, director of this revealing documentary,
concentrates on the everyday struggles and opportunities of young women,
who would prefer to shape their lives according to their own dreams and wishes.
This is a prelude to her work Egyszerű történet (A Commonplace Story, 1975).

The post Judit Elek – Istenmezején 1972-73-ban AKA A Hungarian Village AKA On the Field of God in 1972-73 (1974) first appeared on Cinema of the World.

The great French filmmaker René Clair crafted this elegant sepia-toned profile of Paris’s iconic landmark almost forty years after the Eiffel Tower took its first bow (at the 1889 Exposition Universelle). It clearly still fascinates and awes in this loving and playful tribute. LA TOUR takes the viewer first up and then down the mighty structure while also acting as a tribute to its eponymous designer, Gustave Eiffel. The film initially burrows into blueprints and photographs of the earliest stages of its construction ahead of the opening of the World’s Fair but Clair’s film revels in the completed structure itself, reverently scaling its heights and accompanying tourists on up through the various levels toward the topmost landing. Clair also makes strategic use of double exposures and dissolves in capturing the mechanical exuberance of the tower lifts (which help make the great swooping steel latticework edifice a bounding symbol of the modern age). – Robert Avila

« A poem in images, that’s what I tried to make. In “Paris qui dort” (Paris Asleep), I was not free of exploring all the aspects of the Eiffel Tower due to the script I had to follow. Every time I was passing close by, I was tempted to get back up there with a camera. Albatros (studio company) allowed me to fullfill this desire and I shot “La Tour” for my own pleasure, as an homage to the glory of this tall iron girl that I’d always been in love with. The Tower remains an incomparable model of modern architecture today as it was yesterday. There is no skyscraper of a bolder and more elegant shape. » (René Clair, translated from French)

Originally released in 1928, this is a documentary about the famous tower which was built for the 1889 World Fair and should have been destroyed afterward but the people in Paris were wise enough to change their minds. It was made between two movies and the music was composed and added in 2003 by Arnaud Gauthier for the DVD release.

La Cinémathèque française restored the film in 1995 and temporarily released it for free on their online streaming platform Henri as part of an initiative to support culture and entertain people during the Covid-19 2020 lockdown.

Quote:
… explores Claude Lanzmann’s dedication to his film Shoah. It uses Lanzmann’s own words and previously unseen footage to provide new insights into his groundbreaking work.

The making of Claude Lanzmann’s film “Shoah” was an adventure in itself. Twelve years of work, thousands of hours of preparation, travels to the four corners of the world, dozens of witnesses… and just as many doubts, setbacks, and dead ends, but also moments of painful grace when the truth emerged. Thanks to 220 hours of unused rushes and the memoirs of its director, Guillaume Ribot delves into the heart of the production of a major cinematic work, getting as close as possible to the obsessions of the man who undertook to bring truth out of oblivion…
