But “Kolly Kibber,” busy caching newspaper giveaway cards around town, keeps looking over his shoulder for Richard Attenborough’s mystical psycho “Pinkie,” razor-wielding teenage head of a racecourse gang (“one of the most vicious pieces of work to ever slink across a cinema screen” – Total Film), so ruthless that he’d actually (yecch!) marry naïve, underage waitress Carol Marsh just to tie up a crime’s loose end. But blowsy blonde Hermione Baddeley keeps asking all these questions. The Boulting Brothers’ (John alternated with identical twin Roy as director and producer) adaptation of Graham Greene’s serious thriller was scripted by the author himself, after he was dissatisfied with Terence Rattigan’s first, happily-ended draft. Breakthrough starring screen role for future Oscar-winning director (Gandhi) Attenborough, who had played the same role on stage four years earlier (see also: 10 Rillington Place) — plus dazzling location shooting, with crowds of seemingly unseeing holiday-goers in the background of chase scenes across major intersections; but also with the blackest of Noir treatments for this darkest of British Noirs (Film Forum)<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhO2BatgBK35sQ6c_xLDXZYd3yxnd_AifCEzuRbSBNqL88R2qemR3X6FweuE5STLAUI9k_a1MjdBivY-4lLWm9Yynbtns0uSYT8SU0Qzd5lEVEjJu0ACndr5M6JV-sODk59yyqEYtGGpTM/s1600/vlcsnap-1465461-1.png"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhO2BatgBK35sQ6c_xLDXZYd3yxnd_AifCEzuRbSBNqL88R2qemR3X6FweuE5STLAUI9k_a1MjdBivY-4lLWm9Yynbtns0uSYT8SU0Qzd5lEVEjJu0ACndr5M6JV-sODk59yyqEYtGGpTM/s400/vlcsnap-1465461-1.png" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5500554959808814626" /></a>sara seidmanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13634501728791914658noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4694620589099298432.post-5174892283600595932010-07-30T19:08:00.003-04:002010-07-30T19:12:09.766-04:00It's been wonderful organzing the CHARLES THEATRE WORKER'S UNION ART WALL but it's time to hand the honor over to another worthy chas employee. As the whole affair has been very, shall we say, organic, it will be up to the current employees to elect or volunteer the next art wall organizer. Don't let this amazing opportunity pass you by!!<br /><br />Next week the current show will come down and what will come next will be up to you, Chas Employees! The lighting will remain up for the next two months and if nothing comes about it will come down as well.<br /><br />Best of luck!Melody Oftenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17615297842975465098noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4694620589099298432.post-63140746417126827692010-07-10T03:28:00.001-04:002010-07-10T03:28:26.859-04:00Revival: Mickey OneREVIVAL: MICKEY ONE <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMgoOi8Z13uM5aOvu7CnzXL_6Epq-SwJ1HLE10lRC7A-TADfE0GDEkT6LBeB_Q9V0-929n3BAXLU2pMDgjzZX8w2RMrJjZjQT-XPgbPKnc4wz677bqyCYaxp9ztOxlZfnUUOe8q_r_RWE/s1600/3475447998_36be4e14e7.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMgoOi8Z13uM5aOvu7CnzXL_6Epq-SwJ1HLE10lRC7A-TADfE0GDEkT6LBeB_Q9V0-929n3BAXLU2pMDgjzZX8w2RMrJjZjQT-XPgbPKnc4wz677bqyCYaxp9ztOxlZfnUUOe8q_r_RWE/s400/3475447998_36be4e14e7.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5492174712981357826" /></a><br /> Showtimes: <br />Saturday, July 10 at Noon<br />Monday, July 12 at 7 PM<br />Thursday, July 15 at 9PM<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9iUN35qsy6Gi_vOweR9ezebSnLQ-X2S3e_RVytA9VrnMVepjbh3NigiqoetCAJg6-fyjD_w7vcNy8xB1gwRE4wimR8687HkrGfIU29Whgx_gp9-qGc-N9BslVZTFncjFUM-Pv0Le9AM4/s1600/mickey4.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 266px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9iUN35qsy6Gi_vOweR9ezebSnLQ-X2S3e_RVytA9VrnMVepjbh3NigiqoetCAJg6-fyjD_w7vcNy8xB1gwRE4wimR8687HkrGfIU29Whgx_gp9-qGc-N9BslVZTFncjFUM-Pv0Le9AM4/s400/mickey4.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5492174716931565490" /></a><br /> 1965 Arthur Penn. Warren Beatty, Alexandra Stewart, Hurd Hatfield, Franchot Tone. 93 m. bw.<br /><br /> Hollywood's attempt at French New Wave, courtesy of director Penn and star Beatty, results in a curious brew - the plot, such as it is, may lose some viewers completely but the film itself is intriguing enough to warrant attention throughout. Beatty is the stand-up comic who finds himself the target of mobsters, heads for Chicago and changes his name to Mickey One. He attempts to start again, but can't help feeling that he is still being followed - a hunch confirmed by a subsequent physical attack. Quirky to say the least, audiences gave its jerky editing techniques and weird visuals a wide berth when the film was first released -indeed, these are aspects which some many find hard to take even now. On the plus side, Beatty is fine and Stan Getz's cool jazzy score adds to the atmosphere...(Channel 4)<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhiTAuY4SfDndRPOBj8Fs2R1fud7bTYtAbnVOipwYJha5BRVBNB4MgXOd2v2u5tDvlGurlmNpPaJ0v88oMzsf3s7nyTjyPY7XTFTQ2u-H2OtxZKR6Th00-TyPmi6g4yWKtZn13IZEh_gHg/s1600/13seit600.1.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 269px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhiTAuY4SfDndRPOBj8Fs2R1fud7bTYtAbnVOipwYJha5BRVBNB4MgXOd2v2u5tDvlGurlmNpPaJ0v88oMzsf3s7nyTjyPY7XTFTQ2u-H2OtxZKR6Th00-TyPmi6g4yWKtZn13IZEh_gHg/s400/13seit600.1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5492174710521865858" /></a>sara seidmanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13634501728791914658noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4694620589099298432.post-56343017610040189332010-07-05T02:44:00.001-04:002010-07-05T02:45:34.072-04:00Revival: VertigoAlfred Hitchcock's VERTIGO <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgihy_aA9TIC6Q2Np70Ted301zKShKYjjRtLXTKZLAjbTb763WGXOpnkhsSEiDq4lfNFPF73nmr9UTBzVtFUGaDF3zbZ6u0yIwUOhryCBc_73_e6BNV4rEe-xek1bYmfqC9DEGqgiVkCJE/s1600/pdvd000ty2.bmp.png"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 225px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgihy_aA9TIC6Q2Np70Ted301zKShKYjjRtLXTKZLAjbTb763WGXOpnkhsSEiDq4lfNFPF73nmr9UTBzVtFUGaDF3zbZ6u0yIwUOhryCBc_73_e6BNV4rEe-xek1bYmfqC9DEGqgiVkCJE/s400/pdvd000ty2.bmp.png" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5490308109954260002" /></a><br />Showtimes: <br />Monday, July 5 at 7PM<br />Thursday, July 8 at 9PM<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJXVFp9IspTdiC8gTtPc5KCx0UY_SY_yeHd1TI71BV_KMpeLfRf_Hhzus5CBArYb_SjyjMcAYBEC7dHS-B2Go3F01hOcHvJWL9Hp-NCBLXPG1w-DdVn89ZGWc230v6zIaifoUHds_Wzy4/s1600/pdvd004uq2.bmp.png"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 225px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJXVFp9IspTdiC8gTtPc5KCx0UY_SY_yeHd1TI71BV_KMpeLfRf_Hhzus5CBArYb_SjyjMcAYBEC7dHS-B2Go3F01hOcHvJWL9Hp-NCBLXPG1w-DdVn89ZGWc230v6zIaifoUHds_Wzy4/s400/pdvd004uq2.bmp.png" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5490308107688948482" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgeFY89YoPBpgTy4yg-hiFqE_iclgwrjFgTrFMaDZiOCy1ltZmKKQhkZ4tl02wifFzxv6kvvvviSUl0O4S3OXnnlOmVqHlMtCH92b1aGjD8eHCRBB_UkodpHQvBLx33pLRp_82OxEBTqaA/s1600/pdvd024yi1.bmp.png"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 225px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgeFY89YoPBpgTy4yg-hiFqE_iclgwrjFgTrFMaDZiOCy1ltZmKKQhkZ4tl02wifFzxv6kvvvviSUl0O4S3OXnnlOmVqHlMtCH92b1aGjD8eHCRBB_UkodpHQvBLx33pLRp_82OxEBTqaA/s400/pdvd024yi1.bmp.png" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5490308097311412322" /></a><br /><br />1958 Dir.

Alfred Hitchcock's 1958 film extends the theme of Rear Window—the relationship of creator and creation—into the realm of love and sexuality, focusing on an isolated, inspired romantic (James Stewart) who pursues the spirit of a woman (the powerfully carnal Kim Novak). The film's dynamics of chase, capture, and escape parallel the artist's struggle with his work; the enraptured gaze of the Stewart character before the phantom he has created parallels the spectator's position in front of the movie screen. The famous motif of the fall is presented in horizontal rather than vertical space, so that it becomes not a satanic fall from grace, but a modernist fall into the image, into the artwork—a total absorption of the creator by his creation, which in the end is shown as synonymous with death. But a thematic analysis can only scratch the surface of this extraordinarily dense and commanding film, perhaps the most intensely personal movie to emerge from the Hollywood cinema."

The gorgeous dreamlike sets and consummate control of the fantastic atmosphere that imbues the story (an idle, poverty-stricken farmer dreams of being sent to Hell upon dying) are already well developed. And the cast are magnificent, delivering the lovely Harold Arlen score with style and power.

Thereafter the focus moves to a wartime variety show at the Barafonda Theatre. We visit a brothel, witness Fellini fall in love with a prostitute and listen to the American writer Gore Vidal's bleak assessment of the city's future. Binding these threads together is a team of documentary filmmakers shooting in 1972, when traffic chokes the ancient streets and hippies gather to get stoned on the steps of the Basilica.

Made on a $400,000 budget (it grossed $60 million worldwide), it blew the hinges off the big studios' doors. It helped open American movies to contemporary content and new styles of acting and storytelling."

Director Dennis Hopper borrows from the avant-garde to suggest the LSD experience, and some of the trips have a definite flavor of Kenneth Anger and Maya Deren. The film may be a relic now, but it is a fascinating souvenir—particularly in its narcissism and fatalism—of how the hippie movement thought of itself. This was the same year, remember, that Hopper played a heavy offed by John Wayne in True Grit.

Showing in a freshly restored print which does justice to the film's lush Technicolor cinematography, its comparatively modest scale makes for an interesting contrast with Lean's later, much more famous epics such as Lawrence Of Arabia and Dr Zhivago."

The center of this ensemble film is Jennifer Jason Leigh as Stacy Hamilton. She is a young, innocent high-school student who, as the film opens, is asking for advice from her friend, the sexually outspoken Linda Barrett (Phoebe Cates). Stacy takes a liking to nebbish Mark Ratner (Brian Backer), but he is too afraid to make a move even after Stacy all but throws herself at him. She eventually hooks up with Mark's more confident best friend, Mike Damone (Robert Romanus). When not concerning itself with these four characters, the film spends time with stoned surfer dude Jeff Spicoli (Sean Penn) and his ongoing feud with history teacher Mr. Hand (Ray Walston). The film includes brief appearances by such future stars as Nicolas Cage, Eric Stoltz, and Forest Whitaker.

Eminent Ozu players Chishu Ryu and Setsuko Hara command this poignant tale of love and loss in postwar Japan, which remains as potent today as ever—almost alone justifying Ozu’s inclusion in the pantheon of cinema’s greatest directors.

The wife of an engineer is murdered, his female alibi's very existence is denied by every witness, and he faces the chair. His secretary and a curious off-duty cop investigate... Siodmak's angled compositions and dramatic lighting might be uncharitably ticked off as genre staples, but his manipulation of the film's key motif is masterly. He concentrates on the tangible and psychological evidence - the 'records' - of absence: the wife's portrait, the messages on the office dictaphone, the court transcript, the dead witness' typed address, the hat that recalls a dead fiancé. And the film's quest is for a woman who exists only in the memories of the condemned man and the audience.

Alone except for his dog, Flike, Umberto strives to maintain his dignity while trying to survive in a city where traditional human kindness seems to have lost out to the forces of modernization. Umberto’s simple quest to fulfill the most fundamental human needs—food, shelter, companionship—is one of the most heartbreaking stories ever filmed and an essential classic of world cinema. -Criterion Collection<br /><br />"De Sica's Greatest Achievement!" <br />-Martin Scorsese<br /><br />"An unflinching masterpiece...one of the greatest works of Italian neorealism."<br />-- Mike D'Angelo, Time Out New York<br /><br />"When this film came out, we felt that there was nothing the cinema could not do."<br />-- David Shipman<br /><br />"Truly extraordinary...Nothing of De Sica's [previous work] has had [its] pure simplicity and almost unbearable candor and compassion."<br />-- Bosley Crowther NY Times 1955<br /><br />"UMBERTO D. was overdue for revival. And now, expertly restored... exemplifying a movement that has had an immeasurable impact on the last 50 years of filmmaking around the world....<br />The [print's] visual and sound tracks are superb."<br />-- Peter Brunette, The New York Times<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEid089VI8MYXYC3aMSnpb_bNv-7gwA91_hT2HwS6Hc_c1b09a_Baywtz3UQ4cIDKzCzicQPvBHzg_t_ihsGM0ANg-k0GtNqtkMFyAEeAgiWay7cu_X7LAjwPGut2FTI3sY4y8rLD_Tcb7M/s1600/Umberto+D.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEid089VI8MYXYC3aMSnpb_bNv-7gwA91_hT2HwS6Hc_c1b09a_Baywtz3UQ4cIDKzCzicQPvBHzg_t_ihsGM0ANg-k0GtNqtkMFyAEeAgiWay7cu_X7LAjwPGut2FTI3sY4y8rLD_Tcb7M/s400/Umberto+D.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5463345097856352770" /></a><br />"As powerful as The Bicycle Thief was, for me, De Sica and Zavattini's greatest achievement together was Umberto D...a great movie about a hero of everyday life. That was De Sica's precious gift to his father. And to us."<br />-- Martin Scorsese<br /><br />"Screenwriter Cesare Zavattini likely deserves as much credit as director Vittorio De Sica for such masterpieces of Italian neorealism as The Bicycle Thief (1947) and this 1952 feature about a retired civil servant (schoolteacher Carlo Battisti) who discovers that his meager pension won't pay the rent for his room. He's befriended by a maid in the same flat who's pregnant but unsure of the father's identity; apart from her the only creature he feels close to is his dog, and though he contemplates suicide, he has to find someone to care for it. This simple, almost Chaplinesque story of a man fighting to preserve his dignity is even more moving for its firm grasp of everyday activities."<br />--Jonathan Rosenbaumsara seidmanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13634501728791914658noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4694620589099298432.post-86140734309187943722010-04-17T02:35:00.001-04:002010-04-17T02:35:52.245-04:00REVIVAL: MAGNIFICENT OBSESSIONREVIVAL: MAGNIFICENT OBSESSION <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWG8uRvdzAL_a7qP4wocAviUChGrSNmAHjKr-fEgKeFjuqy1Mf9yRoJivt8f_8X6V5el8CAQpunOBcPFNfNS-DZUaqRJgleW4TeQC1Z7mWAHN7pfBx2GxgWaAfySEIUBBzdBvBl-SkYsA/s1600/800+magnificent+obsession+PDVD_009.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 214px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWG8uRvdzAL_a7qP4wocAviUChGrSNmAHjKr-fEgKeFjuqy1Mf9yRoJivt8f_8X6V5el8CAQpunOBcPFNfNS-DZUaqRJgleW4TeQC1Z7mWAHN7pfBx2GxgWaAfySEIUBBzdBvBl-SkYsA/s400/800+magnificent+obsession+PDVD_009.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5460991001109349058" /></a><br />Showtimes: <br />SATURDAY, APRIL 17 at NOON<br />MONDAY, APRIL 19 at 7 PM<br />THURSDAY, APRIL 22 at 9 PM.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgVa48tOqyWPvBbF2FhVzsTEUV7MNpO_avuYeLhMpGIy0oUiIvc5bjQC_yarT_SqlZJpWq6ZgaYWJDHxAweFmcKTPqf7VpN1agGDpgw5GG4wW3GglrCRXaB7tzmtVFeDl9YZhB7Z6Gm8Qc/s1600/4.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 225px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgVa48tOqyWPvBbF2FhVzsTEUV7MNpO_avuYeLhMpGIy0oUiIvc5bjQC_yarT_SqlZJpWq6ZgaYWJDHxAweFmcKTPqf7VpN1agGDpgw5GG4wW3GglrCRXaB7tzmtVFeDl9YZhB7Z6Gm8Qc/s400/4.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5460991009838389842" /></a><br />1954 Dir. Douglas Sirk. Jane Wyman, Rock Hudson, Barbara Rush, Agnes Moorehead, Otto Kruger. 108 m. Technicolor.<br /><br />Reckless playboy Bob Merrick (Rock Hudson, in his breakthrough role) crashes his speedboat, requiring emergency attention from the town’s only resuscitator—at the very moment that beloved local Dr. Phillips has a heart attack and dies waiting for the life-saving device. Thus begins one of Douglas Sirk’s most flamboyant master classes in melodrama, a delirious Technicolor mix of the sudsy and the spiritual in which Bob and the doctor’s widow, Helen (Jane Wyman), find themselves inextricably linked amid a series of increasingly wild twists, turns, trials, and tribulations.

It's a simple enough story: after being contaminated by what may or may not be nuclear waste, Williams finds himself slowly but steadily shedding the pounds and inches until he reaches truly minuscule proportions. But it is what Richard Matheson's script (adapted from his own novel) does with this basic material that makes the film so gripping and intelligent. At first, Williams is merely worried about his mysterious illness, but soon, towered over by his wife, he begins to feel humiliated, expressing his shame and impotence through cruel anger. And then his entire relationship with the universe changes, with cats, spiders and drops of water representing lethal threats in the surreal and endless landscape that is, in fact, his house's cellar. And finally, to the strains of Joseph Gershenson's impressive score, we arrive at the film's philosophical core: a moving, strangely pantheist assertion of what it really means to be alive. A pulp masterpiece."

The film begins in the standard format, and then expands to CinemaScope when Picasso whimsically demands more room. With music by Georges Auric; photographed by Claude Renoir."

Dir. Hal Ashby. Warren Beatty, Julie Christie, Goldie Hawn, Lee Grant. 109m.<br /><br />"At some point the bottom fell out of the American sex farce and romance moved back in. But 25 years ago, "Shampoo" was a jigsaw puzzle of carnal knowledge deceptively told through the eyes of its nymphomaniac hairdresser (Warren Beatty) and from the perspective of both genders. Directed by Hal Ashby and written by Beatty and Robert Towne ("Chinatown"), the film is an elaborate roundelay of sex, a screwball masterpiece that's inspired everything from "Three's Company" and Beck's "Midnite Vultures" to the Clinton Administration. Opening on the eve of the '68 presidential election in the Hollywood Hills and ending the next day with Nixon and Agnew's victory, "Shampoo" has Beatty's George bed-hopping while trying to get a loan to open his own shop, presumably so he can settle down with actress girlfriend Jill (Goldie Hawn). George is a player so addicted to women that, as Hawn puts it, he's incapable of love. The beauty of Beatty's performance - and it remains his best - is that George is miserable. His infidelity is like a curse whose shame he wears from his first come-on right through intercourse."

That newsreel snippet sets up the social-issue background: Chuck Glover (Clift), New Deal idealogue from the Tennessee Valley Authority, is overseeing the much-needed building of a dam. But the minute he steps onto the condemned property of cantankerous matriarch Ella Garth (Van Fleet) and sees her widowed daughter-in-law (Remick), all bets on stark realism are off. Battle lines are drawn—tradition versus progress, individual rights versus government mandates, black versus white. But the movie is primarily concerned with one question: When will this handsome Fed and his hillbilly hottie explode from too much repressed lust? Kazan’s films are better known for showcasing stratospheric Method-emoting over visual expressiveness, which makes Wild River’s gorgeous imagery a shock; the shots of scorched-earth backwoods and a barge drifting through the morning mist are the most lyrical scenes Gadge ever filmed. Clift’s awkwardness (he was in steady decline when he reported for duty) punctures the movie’s attempts at reaching Sirkian dizziness. Remick, however, was Kazan’s ace in the hole; known for allowing directors to subvert her girl-next-door demeanor, she’s finally given a role that calls for sexuality and chops, delivering wildly on both fronts."

After the funeral, they go on a two-day bender. Returning home, Harry has a violent row with his wife and his mother-in-law and decides to fly off to London that day. Fearing for Harry’s well-being, Archie and Gus accompany him. Once there, the three go to a casino and end up bringing women back to their hotel rooms. The drama turns on a simple question: whether any of them will go home."

Its in-and-out, vignette style, and its nonstop rock-oldies soundtrack, quickly became standard issue for teen movies. Some of Lucas's characters - the nerd (Charlie Martin Smith), the deceptively 'dumb' blonde (Candy Clark), the hot-rodder (Paul Le Mat) - were stock figures even in 1962, the year in which the story takes place. But Lucas reanimates the cliches, using them to externalize and flesh out the cruising mind-set of his teen era. He gets at the archetypal bonds and tensions between eternal high school types like the brainy semi-outsider ( Richard Dreyfuss) and the sharp yet inertia-prone class prez ('Ronny' Howard). And the rock-and-roll moviemaking rhythms give 'Graffiti' a souped-up engine all its own. This 1973 movie recaptured the idea of teen years being fun - a notion that has since gotten way out of hand.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinIPukPSFyb5TFuLwVL3qlNiUyLsdIu1EKkpht3CKPe1mjt8hgV9W_d92SrwuWKnADH9741oE0xhrZorl6gUYNsMYeqLlaO_5D67GeRs7hG4kO4RnGVfrOF8hqa_GY3c1tcyubam_NHaA/s1600-h/american-graffiti-1973-ron-howard-cindy-williams-kathleen-quinlan-pic-4.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 167px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinIPukPSFyb5TFuLwVL3qlNiUyLsdIu1EKkpht3CKPe1mjt8hgV9W_d92SrwuWKnADH9741oE0xhrZorl6gUYNsMYeqLlaO_5D67GeRs7hG4kO4RnGVfrOF8hqa_GY3c1tcyubam_NHaA/s400/american-graffiti-1973-ron-howard-cindy-williams-kathleen-quinlan-pic-4.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5438605152872880130" /></a><br />The uncanny casting, including Harrison Ford as Paul Le Mat's nemesis and Suzanne Somers as Dreyfuss' dream girl, doubly ensures this film's place in history. By now, it too is a nostalgic memory - not just for the supposedly innocent time of 1962, but for the seat-of-the-pants innovations of early-1970s moviemaking. The Dolby Digital prints allow you to appreciate how Walter Murch's sound montages woke a generation on the rise to the power of the soundtrack. He uses classic rock 'n' roll in ways it had never been used before. It becomes the natural sound of a small-town California night - more natural than crickets or coyotes. Murch and Lucas don't just exploit rock to set a mood; they use it to fix the movie's meanings in a viewer's mind, like a Greek chorus with a beat. At times, the sound alone makes us feel as if we're in the middle of a giant, rainbow-colored jukebox.<br /><br />But the filmmakers also know how to blow away that aural mist to exploit silence and sound effects - usually in places where conventional movies would use a musical score to pound home emotional tension or crises in the plot. When Dreyfuss has to sneak a hook onto the undercarriage of a police car in order to prove himself to a gang known as the Pharoahs, the rock 'n' roll subsides. All you hear is the nerve-rattling sound of an approaching train. A year before, the sound of an unseen train had worked for Michael Corleone's murder of a rival mobster and a crooked cop in 'The Godfather.' In a different manner and context, it works just as brilliantly here.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTQuY81zj5DMiSjdxu3woqdocwrvIb9JfBFYo6XOSWR0gzuqWe83wtu9VxTv4L51ro8BRTortOfoc-9FeHnQScA8bVi65Qidg_GIb9bC9Ar8EE-6eTgo2iQQVqu7JAP35y0K9GSg5GTSc/s1600-h/vlcsnap-14435107.png"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 225px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTQuY81zj5DMiSjdxu3woqdocwrvIb9JfBFYo6XOSWR0gzuqWe83wtu9VxTv4L51ro8BRTortOfoc-9FeHnQScA8bVi65Qidg_GIb9bC9Ar8EE-6eTgo2iQQVqu7JAP35y0K9GSg5GTSc/s400/vlcsnap-14435107.png" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5438605170935416930" /></a><br />Cinematographer Haskell Wexler has said that 'what was groundbreaking' for him was that 'we were able to use documentary techniques, we were able to use smaller equipment, we were able to work in a simpler way and still have what ultimately was on the screen be interesting and good.' These days, Lucas is known for digital wizardry. He did some latter-day digital touch-ups on 'American Graffiti,' too. But what makes this movie click was the edge the actors got from knowing that Lucas was seizing on their most spontaneous reactions - including their stumbles and 'mistakes.'"
