Godard, seul le cinéma
6.4
Jean-Luc Godard, c'est le cinéma, sa quintessence. A tout juste 91 ans, il a réalisé plus de 140 films. C'est un personnage public autant qu'un homme enveloppé de mystère. Il n'est pas facile de s'emparer d'un géant aussi légendaire et énigmatique. L'itinéraire de Godard ne suit qu'une seule direction : un renouvellement constant de son art. Il voit l'acte créatif comme un acte nécessaire de critique et de déconstruction. Ce portrait veut nous emmener au-delà des clichés d'un mythe devenu parfois caricatural, à la rencontre d'un homme plus sentimental qu'il n'y paraît, un homme habité, parfois dépassé, par son art.

Mes entretiens filmés
3.2
This distinctly personal journey into the artistic possibilities of independent film is not to be missed. Jonas Mekas, Jean-Pierre Gorin, Robert Kramer and many other visionaries and mavericks of the silver screen – as well as a book seller, a critic and a psychoanalyst – discuss what cinema has meant to them, what it is and what it could be and, implicitly, how it has changed over the 18 years in which this film was shot. Director Boris Lehman leads the charge, drawing in moments of absurdist humour and inventive camera work; he keeps things raw and spontaneous. His encounters with the now much-missed Jean Rouch and Stephen Dwoskin are particularly touching and stand testament to their personal playfulness and candour. An engaging, absorbing, epic odyssey of a movie.

Letter to Peter, on Saint François d'Assise by Olivier Messiaen
1
In 1992, Olivier Messiaen's epic opera "Saint François d'Assise" was brought to the Salzburg Festival in a staging by Peter Sellars. The distinct visual appearance that Sellars lent to the opera, where video monitors with powerful images are used as a sort of high-tech metaphor for a cathedral's stained glass, drew critical acclaim and is still talked about as a watershed moment in opera to this day. This film here is a 75-minute documentary on the 1992 staging. Jean-Pierre Gorin filmed Sellars, baritone José van Dam (St. Francis) soprano Dawn Upshaw (The Angel), and the LA Philharmonic and conductor Esa-Pekka Salonen as they rehearsed for the big day. There are interviews with these artists, though Sellars gets most of the screen time. The documentary is very much about Sellars' vision for Messiaen's theatrical drama. Very little is said about Messiaen's music.
