Lots of Fun at Finnegans Wake, with Anthony Burgess
1973 29 min 1 vues
Author-critic Anthony Burgess explores in a free-wheeling way perspectives of James Joyce's great experimental novel "Finnegans Wake". He is in the unusual setting of an Irish pub, utilizing a variety of props to illustrate his points. Burgess, erudite and ironic, brings in photographs, history and even sings a song from the book -- the "Ballad of Persse O'Reilly." All this with Burgess leaning on the big wooden bar of the pub. Internationally known author Burgess ("A Clockwork Orange", "ReJoyce", etc.) has always been fascinated by "Finnegans Wake", its idiosyncratic language, its enormously complicated structure, and its attempt to address those most universal human questions of life, death, sex, mind, and mankind's fall and resurrection.

Il était une fois… Orange Mécanique
2011 52 min 9 vues
Stanley Kubrick tourne Orange mécanique en 1971. Sur fond de délinquance juvénile, le film dénonce les techniques de conditionnement mental utilisées pour redresser les déviances. Censé se dérouler dans un futur proche, il est très ancré dans la fin des années soixante, marquée par la contestation anti-autoritaire des institutions et la montée de l'insécurité urbaine. Orange mécanique reste l'œuvre choc d'un visionnaire.

Magazine culturel consacré à la littérature. L'émission proposait des discussions ouvertes entre quatre ou cinq auteurs autour d’un sujet commun, mais également des entrevues individuelles avec un seul auteur. En 15 ans d’existence, Apostrophes est devenu l'émission littéraire emblématique à la télévision française de cette période, notamment grâce à la personnalité de son présentateur Bernard Pivot, la diversité et la qualité de ses intervenants, voire des polémiques qui surgirent épisodiquement lors de l'émission.
