223-minute cut. Va Savoir+
2 x 50 Years of French Cinema 1995

★★★★ Watched 28 Dec 2024

When you show Feuillade today, people call it an old film. They don't talk of an old book. An old book is a book in poor condition. You do not say that "Don Quixote" is an old book. Not even an old novel. But when you take Griffith or Gance's "Napoléon," that is called an old film.

Occupied City 2023

Watched 05 Oct 2023

Introduced by Steve McQueen and Bianca Stigter, with Q&A after.
audience member asked if McQueen would consider splitting the film into shorter parts for wide release. McQueen interrupted the question and asked if that person would split Wagner to make him more digestible or if they would try forcing size four shoes on his (McQueen’s) own size ten feet. “why should Cinema be limited to 90 minutes?”

"There's a man who cries in ORDET, a film by Dreyer."
“Why?"
"His wife's dead."
“When someone leaves you it’s like they die”
“It's worse... they're still alive.“
