Innholdsfortegnelse for Issue 87: November/December 2020 i Little White Lies

LWLies: Hi there Adam, thanks for taking time out from your ent, musty, single-screen venue that was famous in my circle of high-school friends for not checking IDs on R-rated movies. If memory serves, that same year I saw Oliver Stone’s U-Turn and Ron Howard’s Ransom in the same cinema, neither of which I enjoyed as much as Boogie Nights. Which character within the Paul Thomas Anderson corpus do you personally relate to the most and why? I think there’s a sheltered, workaholic aspect to my personality that’s a bit Reynolds Woodcockish but I don’t want to take that analogy any further than I already have; the funny thing with Anderson’s male protagonists is that, even when they’re master seducers or potent antiheroes, you don’t really feel comfortable identifying with…

Directed by MATT WOLF Starring MARION STOKES MICHAEL METELITS Released 6 NOVEMBER ANTICIPATION. 4 Super intrigued by this fascinating story. ENJOYMENT. 4 Starts off really strong, still lots to enthuse about. IN RETROSPECT. 3 Dips in the second half but well worth your time. For 33 years, the elusive African-American archivist Marion Stokes religiously recorded the TV news for 24 hours a day. Triggered by the 1979 Iranian hostage crisis, it was Marion’s belief that, ‘the TV was part of what was taking us hostage’ and so she set out to document how history is recorded. In his film, director Matt Wolf illuminates fragments of her obscure life and sense of discipline, but he also reveals the true gravity and scope of her project. The film’s biggest strengths lie in its…

Directed by HARRY MACQUEEN Starring COLIN FIRTH STANLEY TUCCI PIPPA HAYWOOD Released 20 NOVEMBER ANTICIPATION. 3 Macqueen’s first feature, Hinterland, was very decent. ENJOYMENT. 4 Feels like a big step up. Slow and steady for the first hour until it all comes to an emotional head. IN RETROSPECT. 4 The climactic two-hander gifts us some of Firth and Tucci’s finest work on screen. Movies tend to run with the idea that love is the blissful romantic ideal we should all spend our lives chasing. Its mere mention implies happiness and contentment, brightness and hope. The great German director Rainer Werner Fassbinder made a career out of suggesting the opposite, that love is little more than a torture device which serves to expedite our path to the grave. Harry Macqueen’s second…

Directed by STEVE MCQUEEN Starring AMARAH-JAE ST AUBYN MICHEAL WARD SHANIQUA OKWOK Released 22 NOVEMBER ANTICIPATION. 4 Intrigued by the massive undertaking that is McQueen’s Small Axe series. ENJOYMENT. 4 Full of light and love, specific but universally inviting. IN RETROSPECT. 4 A welcome dose of warmth for these cold winter months. There is absolutely no doubt that Steve McQueen is one of the finest British filmmakers we’ve ever had: from his haunting Bobby Sands biopic Hunger to 2018’s masterful heist thriller Widows, it would seem there is no limit to his storytelling capabilities. And, while 2020 hasn’t given us much to celebrate, there’s certainly been a lot of wonderful work by McQueen. His ambitious Year 3 project – intended to capture portraits of every third year class in London…

Directed by PIETRO MARCELLO Starring LUCA MARINELLI JESSICA CRESSY CARLO CECCHI Released 13 NOVEMBER ANTICIPATION. 4 The Lost and Beautiful director adapts Jack London as a dramatic Italian heavyweight. ENJOYMENT. 4 An epic, vital portrait of ideological ambition and decay. IN RETROSPECT. 4 It’s hard to forget the emotional scars left behind by Luca Marinelli’s titanic performance. Life’s bitter contradictions inevitably take a toll on every human being, but none more so than the writer with plenty of time on their hands. The mental cost of endlessly thinking and philosophising are readily apparent throughout Pietro Marcello’s mesmerizing drama Martin Eden, which transposes Jack London’s Oakland-set novel about a self-made novelist/poet who experiences success and creative disappointment during an unspecific moment in 20th-century Naples. During the film’s beguiling opening sequence, Marcello…

Directed by PETE DOCTER KEMP POWERS Starring JAMIE FOXX TINA FEY ANGELA BASSETT Released 24 DECEMBER ANTICIPATION. 3 Pixar have been hit and miss for a while. ENJOYMENT. 4 A welcome return to form featuring some very welcome new blood. IN RETROSPECT. 4 A much-needed dose of Pixar magic for these turbulent times. Lately it’s felt a little like Pixar have been phoning it in. Their last release Onward, (approximately 20 years ago, in March of this year) was an underwhelming elven adventure starring Chris Pratt and Tom Holland. Prior to that came two sequels in the form of Toy Story 4 and Incredibles 2, which didn’t quite live up to the magic of their predecessors. It’s something of a relief, then, that their latest original story is their best…

Directed by THOMAS BEZUCHA Starring KEVIN COSTNER, DIANE LANE, LESLEY MANVILLE Released 11 DECEMBER While grieving over the loss of their son, retired sheriff George Blackledge (Kevin Costner) and his wife Margaret (Diane Lane), are persuaded to leave their Montana home and travel to the outskirts of Dakota. The aim? To rescue their young grandson from a family so off-kilter and dodgy that they would give the crime clan from David Michôd’s 2010 film Animal Kingdom a run for their money. With one deceased son and a grandchild that they don’t hold a strong claim to, the central couple in Thomas Bezucha’s Let Him Go allow feelings of grief to subside when reflecting on these fragile familial relations. The film often plays with broad metaphors: during their long trek to Dakota, the couple…

Eight years after his striking debut Antiviral, genre upstart Brandon Cronenberg is back with with his second feature Possessor, an ultra-violent, nightmarish film about mind-controlling assassins that flows on a gushing river of blood and gore. LWLies: It seems there were two paths available to you as a filmmaker. You could either do the exact opposite of your dad and make feel good rom-coms, or you could build on his legacy and go for body horror, dystopias and technological nightmares. What made you choose the latter? Cronenberg: There was only one option, neither. It was to just make films that are honest to my own interests and creative impulses because to either deliberately embrace or reject what was expected of me would be to be making films simply in response…

Growing pains are the subject of the latest feature by Berlin-based filmmaker Leonie Krippendorff. Her previous film Looping and screenplay for Fucking Berlin explored sexuality in crisis and so Krippendorff is on home turf for Cocoon, the charming story of 14-year-old Nora (Lena Urzendowsky) who comes of age while pursuing a crush on the new girl at school, Romy (Jella Haase), over a long, hot summer. LWLies: Your previous film and screenplay have been about characters on journeys of sexual self-discovery but Cocoon is your first teenage coming-of-age film. Why did you want to tell this story? Krippendorf: I wanted to make a coming-of-age film about a girl growing into a woman but one that was very close to the body. Puberty was a very intense time for me as…

Directed by TSAI MING-LIANG Starring LEE KANG-SHENG CHEN SHIANG-CHYI KIYONOBU MITAMURA 2003 Released 23 NOVEMBER Blu-ray Peanuts are chewed, lips smacked and fingers licked; a drink is sipped, a little too loudly. Two feet go up on the chair in front; a woman scrabbles under her seat for something. One man looks across at another, lingering too long or not long enough maybe. The projector whirrs; light dances in the dark, and flickering colours reflect off faces. So goes Tsai Ming-liang’s elegant ode to cinematic space and sublimated desire, Goodbye, Dragon Inn, a film that – like many made by a director who is amongst history’s greatest – consists of very little. Some lonely souls attend the Fu-Ho Grand, an old movie theatre in Taipei where King Hu’s 1967 wuxia classic Dragon Inn…

Directed by WILLIAM GREAVES Starring PATRICIA REE GILBERT DON FELLOWS STEVE BUSCEMI 1968-2005 Released 14 DECEMBER Blu-ray In a recording of a Q&A for a screening of Symbiopsychotaxiplasm: Take One that is woven into Symbiopsychotaxiplasm: Take 2 ½, director William Greaves describes symbiotaxiplasm as, “all those events in life that human beings are involved with which impact their physical, social and material environment, and which in turn affect their personalities and character.” As if this wasn’t a broad enough conceptual field, he then says he added ‘psycho’ to introduce “the mental mechanisms involved in the creative process” into his area of inquiry. That this explanation of the philosophical principles informing the first film arrives midway through the second – at which point the film catapults 37 years forward in time and collapses in…

From the pen of Jack Fincher comes Mank, the story of how perma-soused Hollywood hack Herman Mankiewicz happened to write one of the greatest screenplays of all time. Sadly, Jack didn’t live long enough to see the words he had written transformed into sound and light, but it’s something that his son David had wanted to realise for close to three decades. It’s been six years since Fincher Jr’s last feature film, 2014’s Gone Girl, and in the interim we’ve had two series of Rolls Royce TV drama in the form of Mindhunter. For someone who has already made a tech bro riff on Citizen Kane (2010’s The Social Network), and a melancholic homage to his late father (2008’s The Curious Case of Benjamin Button), Mank combines these two career…

Directed by CHLOÉ ZHAO Starring FRANCES MCDORMAND DAVID STRATHAIRN CHARLENE SWANKIE Released 1 JANUARY ANTICIPATION. 4 Zhao’s filmography is two for two so far. Let’s see how this one goes. ENJOYMENT. 5 Make that three; Zhao is one of our brightest hopes for cinema’s future. IN RETROSPECT. 5 A devastating – but hopeful – portrait of modern America. At the start of Chloé Zhao’s Nomadland, a title card informs us that in 2011, after 88 years of operation, the United States Gypsum Corporation closed its plant in the small town of Empire, Nevada. The residents had to vacate their homes, which were owned by the company. It effectively became a ghost town. Drawing on the experiences detailed in Jessica Bruder’s 2017 non-fiction book of the same name, Zhao chronicles a…

Directed by ZEINA DURRA Starring ANDREA RISEBOROUGH MICHAEL LANDES SHERINE REDA Released 6 NOVEMBER ANTICIPATION. 4 Promising premise, love a protagonist finding love and themselves through architecture. ENJOYMENT. 4 A modest yet magnetic exploration of a beautiful Egyptian city and, in turn, an inexplicable woman. IN RETROSPECT. 3 Atmospheric and mystical, but drifts from the memory a little. Drifting on the banks of the Nile in the eponymous city, Luxor revolves around Hana (Andrea Riseborough), a mysterious traveller returning after years away. At first she’s engulfed: a guest checking into a high-ceilinged hotel; a figure in light cotton lost in front of a mural of excited Egyptian figures; a loner following an eager huddle of tourists being guided around some temples. Neat title cards that resemble hotel stationery are used as…

Directed by TIM MIELANTS Starring KEVIN JANSSENS HANNAH HOEKSTRA JEMAINE CLEMENT Released 20 NOVEMBER ANTICIPATION. 3 Another remake of Richard Franklin’s 1978 Ozploitationer? ENJOYMENT. 4 Nope, a bizarre bareassed Belgian banger. IN RETROSPECT. 4 Sweet, difficult-to define quest film nails it. “It’s all down to an uncertain void that has been created,” says Herman (Pierre Bokma) as he addresses the residents of a naturist campsite in a bid to take over now that the owner Rudy (Josse De Pauw) has died. Herman – nicknamed The Windbag – sees opportunity in the power vacuum left by Rudy’s death, but Rudy’s adult son Patrick (Kevin Janssens) is more preoccupied with a different void: a hammer missing from the workshop where, when he is not tending to maintenance jobs around the campsite, he…

Directed by STEVE MCQUEEN Starring LETITIA WRIGHT SHAUN PARKES MALACHI KIRBY Released 15 NOVEMBER ANTICIPATION. 5 Always interested in Steve McQueen, and anxious to see how this amazing story would be told. ENJOYMENT. 5 An emotional rollercoaster – it’s good to be reminded how deeply films can make you feel. IN RETROSPECT. 5 Masterful, remarkable, necessary. ‘Black Ownership’ read the sign in the window of Frank Crichlow’s Mangrove restaurant. Notting Hill in 1968 was a sanctuary for West Indian people, invited to help rebuild Britain after the war, a place to call home. The sign was not there to signal where to throw your money in a show of solidarity, but to signify safety and comfort to the Black people it catered to. Steve McQueen’s Mangrove first centres on the…

Italian director Pietro Marcello’s first-choice career was as a painter. He embraced documentary filmmaking aged 25, crossing into fiction with 2015’s fantasy drama Lost and Beautiful. Class-consciousness permeates his works so it makes sense that he hasadapted‘Martin Eden’, Jack London’s epic, semi-autobiographical novel about the life of an unschooled sailor who becomes a celebrated writer. LWLies: What is it about Luca Marinelli that made you cast him as your Martin Eden? Marcello: He’s a child of his time and I needed him. I just saw him in that role. He can transform himself and develop and change within a melodrama, within a narrative arc of a film. Did the two of you spend time discussing the political ideas you wanted him to represent? More than the politics, it was about…

Directed by EVA MULVAD, LEA GLOB, MORTEN RANMAR  Released 6 NOVEMBER A weeping man frantically packs a suitcase, saying in Farsi, “I not sure tomorrow I will be dead or alive”. We then cut to his euphoric arrival in Turkey, where he is now accompanied by a woman and a young boy, all three claiming asylum. Following various long-form interviews with these people, it remains unclear who, or what, they are running from until the woman, Leila, then grimly lays out their back story. Eva Mulvad’s Love Child is a documentary which attempts to chronicle this strange situation. Trapped in a violently abusive marriage in Iran, Leila fell in love with Sahand, and their son Mani was born of the affair. Her abusive husband assumed paternity but became increasingly hostile and so…

Directed by MICHELE PENNETTA Released 27 NOVEMBER Oscar is a mohawked Sicilian boy on the cusp of adulthood. Spending his days recovering metal with his brother and father to sell on to scrap metal merchants, he is the most common target of his father’s cruel sense of humour and seems jaded beyond his years. Stanley is a Nigerian immigrant, recently awarded a coveted two-year visa to remain in Sicily. He is witty and spiritual but disappointed for how his life has turned out. “They tell you it’s easy to integrate but it’s a trap,” he tells his friend, “don’t listen to them, they’re liars.” Over the course of Michele Pennetta’s ambling pseudo-documentary, little changes for either of our leads, and any parallels between their stories are never made explicit. Without context it…

Directed by VIGGO MORTENSEN Starring LANCE HENRIKSEN VIGGO MORTENSEN LAURA LINNEY Released 4 DECEMBER ANTICIPATION. 3 Debuted at the Sundance Film Festival where critics were not that kind to it. ENJOYMENT. 3 Feels alienatingly traditional at points, but digs deep into some murky emotional terrain. IN RETROSPECT. 4 A vituperative central turn from Henriksen is worth the price of admission. To scan through a CV which is, to put it mildly, dizzyingly eclectic, you’d likely have a tough time guessing what type of film the actor Viggo Mortensen might make were he to step behind the camera. Toss in all his well-documented supplementary interests, such as music, poetry, football, painting and photography, and it’s tough to get a handle on which way this thing might go. The biggest shock of…

The films of David Cronenberg are overwhelmed with philosophical questions about the human body. The most significant of these probing exercises of flesh and blood is that of self-definition in an ever mutating world. The human body is the tree in which all meaning, such as sexuality, violence, commerce, and artistic impulse, take root. Cronenberg’s films are often saddled with the label of body horror, which is an accurate estimation in some of his gooier affairs of crisis and destruction, like much of his work in the 1980s. Yet he also tends to find avenues of hope in the pursuit of these new bodies. When James Woods’ character in Videodrome (1983) falls prey to a conspiracy and witnesses his body being moulded into a gun fit for assassination, he proclaims,…

Directed by STEVE JAMES Starring WILLIAM GATES ARTHUR AGEE EMMA GATES 1994 Out NOW Blu-ray Unlikely though it may seem, a low budget film about two twelve-year-old basketball players from Chicago is a faultless sprawling epic about sport, race, masculinity, family, class and education in America as well as one of the greatest documentaries ever made. Hoop Dreams started as a thirty minute television documentary about community basketball in South Side, Chicago but six years and more than two hundred and fifty hours of footage later it became a critically adored 1994 feature that evokes the best of Spike Lee, Michael Apted and Leo Tolstoy. It follows the lives of two promising young basketball players, troubled and determined Arthur Agee and sweet and earnest William Gates who dream of making it to the…

As we limp towards the end of a truly, impressively terrible year, attention once again turns towards the prospect of awards season. Usually by mid-September in any given year, film critics have a rough idea of the films that are likely to dominate the conversation for the next six months, culminating in the Academy Awards before we do it all over again. This cycle starts with the films selected for Cannes in May (as it did last year for eventual Best Picture winner Parasite) but often includes the Venice, Toronto, Telluride and New York film festivals too. In fact, the last Best Picture winner that didn’t premier at one of these events was The Departed, back in 2004. As such, festivals have become a sort of showcase for studios –…

Directed by ROY ANDERSSON Starring BENGT BERGIUS ANJA BROMS MARIE BURMAN Released 6 NOVEMBER ANTICIPATION. 3 Another procession of bone-dry comic tableaux. Dead horse being whipped much, Roy? ENJOYMENT. 5 The same, but also completely different – less ironic and more reflective And also quite sublime. IN RETROSPECT. 5 A blissful melange of joy and sadness. Andersson’s masterpiece. It’s possible to pick out any single frame from any film made by the great Swedish director Roy Andersson, and it would be immediately identifiable as his. The tell-tale signs include: actors who are all eccentrically misshapen; their faces are lightly smudged with white paint; they talk in a snail-like drawl; there are few, if any, loud primary colours in the frame (50 shades of beige is his timeworn colour palette); and…

Ten years after her striking debut The Imperialists Are Still Alive! Director Zeina Durra returns with Luxor, which stars Andrea Risebourgh as a British doctor on a break from working in the Syrian war zone. We spoke to her about the power of ancient ruins, bad dancing and ways of depicting trauma on screen. LWLies: Which way round was this film conceived: did you create Hanna’s story and then think it would fit best with Luxor, or were you set on making a film in Luxor? Durra: I had a film that I’d been working on that all fell apart for like the tiniest reason. So I’m like, I need to make a film or I’m going to go crazy and that night I had a dream about a woman…

Directed by ALEJANDRO FADEL Starring VICTOR LOPEZ ESTEBAN BIGLIARDI TANIA CASCIANI Released 10 JULY ANTICIPATION. 3 Know nothing about this. ‘Murder Me Rachael’ is a pretty good song by The National? ENJOYMENT. 4 A horror-crime hybrid with remarkable sound design and effects work. IN RETROSPECT. 3 Not sure much beyond the gore endures, but this melancholic mystery sure has some frights. Appreciators of Amat Escalante’s The Untamed and Carlos Reygadas’ Post Tenebras Lux – Latin American social dramas that toy with horror to varying degrees – may find a new work to admire in Murder Me, Monster from writer/director Alejandro Fadel. It’s a Spanish-language international co-production set around the Andes Mountains, and features a similar fusion of libidinal imagery and arguably Lovecraftian terror to that of Escalante’s film, in particular.…

Directed by STEVE MCQUEEN Starring JOHN BOYEGA STEVE TOUSSAINT ANTONIA THOMAS Released 29 NOVEMBER ANTICIPATION. 4 An episode of Steve McQueen’s Small Axe project exploring systemic racism in the police. ENJOYMENT. 4 A low-key drama with far-reaching intimations. Plus, a thunderous turn by Boyega. IN RETROSPECT. 4 An ending that hits you over the head like a cosh and leaves you stunned. Steve McQueen’s Red, White and Blue, which is part of his Small Axe anthology series, confirms its brilliance at the very moment it cuts to black and its first end credit appears. That’s not to say the drama which precedes this shock curtain-drop fails to make a robust case for that already. It’s more that, when the director and co-writer (along with Courttia Newland) chooses to drop a…

Directed by THOMAS VINTERBERG Starring MADS MIKKELSEN THOMAS BO LARSEN MAGNUS MILLANG Released 27 NOVEMBER ANTICIPATION. 3 Another Vinterberg-Mikkelsen midlife crisis joint? Sure! ENJOYMENT. 4 As gleefully fun when they can’t stand up as it is heartbreaking when they can’t slow down. IN RETROSPECT. 4 So much more than a gaudy comedy – a warning to hold onto what you love in life with all your might. Man is bored, man is frustrated, man is lonely. Man is also, apparently, born with a deficit of 0.05 per cent in his blood alcohol level. Four middle-aged men are keenly aware of the latter while also proving the former to be true. Thomas Vinterberg reunites with his favourite actors to tell the story of a bunch of bored, frustrated and lonely middle-school…

Directed by ALEXANDER NANAU Released 20 NOVEMBER On 30October, 2015, Bucharest’s Club Colectiv caught fire. Morethan 180 people were injured and 27 died. A further 37 people passed away needlessly in the city’s hospital from subsequent complications relating to their burns. Collective – an impressive investigative film by acclaimed Bucharest-born documentarian Alexander Nanau – starts with the intimate details of this twofold tragedy before spiralling outwards to tell a grander story about government corruption and corporate greed. Structured like a procedural thriller, the documentary follows the team of ultra-dedicated reporters at Romanian sports-newspaper Gazeta Sporturilo who are investigating these preventable hospital deaths. As they examine the cases and their causes – tapping sources, crunching data, and providing ammunition for the public protests that are occurring parallel – one horrid revelation follows another…

Directed by BRANDON CRONENBERG Starring ANDREA RISEBOROUGH CHRISTOPHER ABBOTT TUPPENCE MIDDLETON Released 27 NOVEMEBER ANTICIPATION. 4 Cronenberg Jrs’s brutal style combined with such an exemplary cast is bound to be fun. ENJOYMENT. 4 Not sure that I’d call this fun but I can’t look away. IN RETROSPECT. 4 A beautiful nightmare that it’s hard to wake up from. It has been eight years since the release of Brandon Cronenberg’s debut feature Antiviral, an impressively nasty little satire about a future in which celebrity diseases become highly priced commodities. In the intervening years, that film’s mad premise has come to seem less far-fetched than intended. Society’s desire for closeness with celebrity has only increased, and the recent pandemic has revealed the strange intimacy of viral transmission. Cronenberg’s follow up takes a…

Directed by LEONIE KRIPPENDORFF Starring LENA URZENDOWSKY JELLA HAASE LENA KLENKE Released 4 DECEMBER ANTICIPATION. 3 Overdone, yet charming coming-of-age film within the domain of lesbian cinema. ENJOYMENT. 4 Emotionally and aesthetically stunning scenes with a uniquely feminist and queer narrative. IN RETROSPECT. 4 New and radical moments that linger in your daily thoughts for days to come. Set during a Berlin summer (an extremely hot one), Leonie Krippendorf’s debut feature, Cocoon, follows 14-year-old Nora (Lena Urzendowsky), whose sheepishness and reluctance to step forward into adulthood are embraced by the all-encompassing glow of the film’s warm cinematography. Nora tags along in the shadow of her outspoken, flirtatious, 16-year-old sister, Jule (Lena Klenke), along with Jule’s best friend, Aylin (Elina Vildanova), as they spend their time basking in the sun by…

Directed by SHŌHEI IMAMURA Starring NORIHEI MIKI KEN OGATA SHÔICHI OZAWA 1983-89 Released 7 DEC Blu-ray One of a mere handful of filmmakers to have won the Cannes Palme d’Or on two seperate occasions, Japan’s Shōhei Imamura managed to go from youthful firebrand to grand old master without ever selling out to complacency. His career spanned from the late ’50s to the new millennium (he passed away in 2006), as he started out as an assistant to arch minimlaist Yasujirō Ozu, but soon turned out his own bustling, unruly films in a style directly counter to his former boss’s finely composed output. Arguably though, his real formative experiences came as a black marketeer in immediate postwar Tokyo, and throughout his filmography he shows a nonjudgmental attitude to those on the lower rungs of…

Directed by CARL FRANKLIN Starring DENZEL WASHINGTON TOM SIZEMORE JENNIFER BEALS 1995 Released 14 DECEMBER Blu-ray The films that made up the noir genre, whose template was forged during Hollywood’s classic era, tend to focus on the travails of white, witty and unusually dogged detectives who end up risking life and limb to attain their closure. Carl Franklin’s Devil in a Blue Dress, adapted from the 1990 novel by Walter Mosley, recalibrates this archetypal detective character by making him Black, and switches out a sense of nagging curiosity with a desperate fight for survival. Denzel Washington plays Ezekiel “Easy” Rawlins, a laid-off construction worker who desperately needs income to pay his mortgage – he is something of an outlier in LA in that he owns his own property. His futile search for…
