THE LADY BEST BOOKS OF 2024<BR><BR>A haunted record of a life devoted to the visual art of the cinema and the written word, by Ireland's greatest director and one of her finest novelists.<BR><BR>In this vivid, moving and strange memoir, Neil Jordan - the author of classic fiction like The Past, Sunrise with Sea Monster and Night in Tunisia, and the creator of celebrated movies like Angel, Mona Lisa, The Crying Game and Interview with the Vampire - reaches deep into his own past and that of his family.<BR><BR>His mother was a painter, his father an inspector of schools who was visited by ghosts, and Jordan grew up on the edge of an abandoned aristocratic estate in north Dublin whose mysterious ruins fed his imagination. Passionate about music, he played in bands and theatre groups and met, at University College Dublin, a young radical called Jim Sheridan. Together they staged unforgettable dramatic productions that hinted at their future careers. <BR><BR>His first collection of stories and first novel, Night in Tunisia and The Past, were met with acclaim, but Jordan was also drawn to the freedom and visual richness of film, and worked with the great English director John Boorman on his Arthurian epic Excalibur. His own first movie with Stephen Rea, Angel, was a brilliant angular take on the horrific violence of the Troubles, and in the years since then his films have combined in a unique way, intense supernatural elements with reflections on violence and sexuality. <BR><BR>Jordan describes his work with Stephen Rea, Jaye Davidson, Bob Hoskins, Tom Cruise and many others, but this is not a conventional story of life in the movies. The book is an eerie meditation on loss, love and creativity, on inspiration and influence, by one of the most unusual artists Ireland has produced.

The New York Times Bestseller<BR><BR>ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: The New York Times, NPR, The Root<BR><BR>A moving, unflinching memoir of hard-won success, struggles with addiction, and a lifelong mission to give back.<BR><BR>When Michael K. Williams died on 6 September 2021, he left behind a career as one of the most electrifying actors of his generation. From his star turn as Omar Little in The Wire to Chalky White in Boardwalk Empire to Emmy-nominated roles in HBO's The Night Of and Lovecraft Country, Williams inhabited a slew of indelible roles that he portrayed with a rawness and vulnerability that leapt off the screen. Beyond the nominations and acclaim, Williams played characters who connected, whose humanity couldn't be denied, whose stories were too often left out of the main narrative.<BR><BR>At the time of his death, Williams had nearly finished a memoir that tells the story of his past while looking to the future, a book that merges his life and his life's work. Mike, as his friends knew him, was so much more than an actor. In Scenes from My Life, he traces his life in whole, from his childhood in East Flatbush and his early years as a dancer to his battles with addiction and the bar fight that left his face with his distinguishing scar. He was a committed Brooklyn resident and activist who dedicated his life to working with social justice organisations and his community, especially in helping at-risk youth find their voice and carve out their future. Williams worked to keep the spotlight on those he fought for and with, whom he believed in with his whole heart.<BR><BR>Imbued with poignance and raw honesty, Scenes from My Life is the story of a performer who gave his all to everything he did - in his own voice, in his own words, as only he could.<BR><BR>'Immensely inspiring and candid' - Publishers Weekly<BR><BR>'Soul-baring' - The Washington Post<BR><BR>'A gripping, revelatory memoir' - NPR<BR><BR>'William's cool rasp leaps off every page, his story told in the direct yet impassioned language that defined his greatest characters' - Vulture

Uno dei grandi film della storia del cinema, una delle avventure più enigmatiche e coinvolgenti che gli occhi degli spettatori abbiano mai incontrato, e uno dei restauri più preziosi realizzati dalla Cineteca di Bologna. Diretto da Dreyer nel 1931, all¿indomani del capolavoro ¿La passione di Giovanna d¿Arcö e dell¿avvento del sonoro, liberamente ispirato ad alcuni racconti di Sheridan Le Fanu, Vampyr è un film horror, un film fantastico, un film di nebbie, di luminescenze, di poche parole, di terrificanti rumori. ¿Questa è la storia delle inquietanti avventure del giovane Allan Gray, che si immerse nello studio del culto del diavolo e delle superstizioni sui vampiri¿: da qui parte la strana avventura del protagonista che, solo in un paese straniero (forse un sogno, forse il suo inconscio), immerso in un eterno crepuscolo, dovrà affrontare segnali malefici, ombre ambigue, misteriose morti, indecifrabili personaggi per trionfare sull¿occulto, invisibile vampiro e poter tornare alla luce e all¿amore. Il film viene presentato nella versione restaurata da Deutsche Kinemathek e Cineteca di Bologna in collaborazione con ZDF/ARTE e Det Danske Filminstitut, presso il laboratorio L¿Immagine Ritrovata. Con le musiche di Wolfgang Zeller restaurate da Timothy Brock ed eseguite dall¿Orchestra del Teatro Comunale di Bologna da lui diretta. Contenuti libro: Un saggio inedito di Peter von Bagh; un¿intervista del 1964 al barone Nicolas de Gunzburg, protagonista e produttore del film; note sul restauro del film e sulla colonna sonora di Wolfgang Zeller; voci su Vampyr: Marcel Carné, Ugo Casiraghi, Claude Beylie, Claude Perrin, Tom Milne, Jean-Louis Schefer, Charles Tesson, Sergio Grmek Germani. Rarità e approfondimenti: Il documentario Carl Th. Dreyer (1966) di Jørgen Roos; il video-saggio The Rise of the Vampire: A Visual Essay on Carl Th. Dreyer¿s Vampyr (2008) di Casper Tybjerg sulle fonti di ispirazione e sulla realizzazione del film; dal festival Il Cinema Ritrovato 2021: la lezione di Timothy Brock sul restauro della colonna sonora e le immagini della proiezione in Piazza Maggiore.

Einige der größten Filmemacher der Welt geben Auskunft über das, was ihr Werk einzigartig macht, was Ihre Intentionen sind, und was sie denjenigen mitteilen wollen, die davon träumen ebenfalls erfolgreiche Filme zu machen.Henry Carroll stellt in "BIG SHOTS! Filmemacher über Film" 50 bedeutende Filmregisseure der letzten 100 Jahre vor, die Filmgeschichte geschrieben haben.Dieses Buch feiert die vielen Multitalente des letzten Jahrhunderts und des bisherigen aktuellen. Diese Personen haben Montagen geschaffen, Geschichten erzählt, Bilder komponiert ¿ und doch bleiben ihre Methoden, ihre Stilmittel und ihre Arbeitsweisen einzigartig. Die Vielseitigkeit des Mediums Film führt dazu, dass sich selten zwei Filmemacher über seine Bestimmung einig sind.

Der Regisseur Luis García Berlanga (1921-2010) gilt neben Luis Buñuel und Juan Antonio Bardem als einer der Begründer des modernen spanischen Kinos, ist im deutschsprachigen Raum allerdings weitgehend unbekannt geblieben. Sein hundertster Geburtstag im Jahre 2021 wurde daher als Anlass genommen, um erstmals in deutscher Sprache umfassend in sein Werk einzuführen. Beeinflusst vom italienischen Neorealismus schuf Berlanga ein kritisches Kino voller ironischer und grotesker Pointen, das ihm zwar Probleme mit der Franco-Zensur einbrachte, ihm aber gleichzeitig den Weg zum europäischen Autorenkino und zu den großen internationalen Festivals öffnete. Die in diesem Band versammelten Beiträge von ausgewiesenen Spezialisten beschränken sich nicht nur auf seine Meisterwerke ¡Bienvenido, Mr. Marshall! (1952), Plácido (1961) oder El Verdugo (1963), sondern zeichnen seine Entwicklung von seinen Anfängen bis zur seinem letzten Werk nach. Ergänzt wird der Reigen durch ein bisher kaum beachtetes Interview.

A Companion to Martin Scorsese A Companion to Martin Scorsese"This valuable book brings the exceptional scale of Martin Scorsese's film work into clear view. His achievements are monumental, and the essays collected in this work provide wonderfully detailed and vivid analyses of his oeuvre. A comprehensive study of the most exciting filmmaker working today."<BR>Robert Burgoyne, University of St AndrewsA Companion to Martin Scorsese, Revised Edition is a comprehensive collection of original essays assessing the career of one of America's most prominent contemporary filmmakers. The first reference work of its kind, this book contains contributions from influential scholars in North America and Europe. The essays use a variety of analytic approaches to study numerous aspects of Scorsese's work, from his earliest films to his place within the history of American and world cinema. They consider his work in relation to auteur theory, the genres in which he has worked, his use of popular music, and his recent involvement with film preservation. Several of the essays offer fresh interpretations of some of Scorsese's most influential films, including Mean Streets, Taxi Driver, Raging Bull, GoodFellas, Gangs of New York, Hugo, and The Irishman. Others take a broader approach and discuss the representation of violence, ethnicity, religion, sexuality, gender, race, and other themes across his work. With insights that will interest film scholars as well as movie enthusiasts, this is an important contribution to the scholarship of contemporary American cinema.
