  1. I saw six movies this week.  Coquette may not be the worst best Actress winner of all time.  But the best one can say about this movie is that it's not very interesting.  Fanny makes one wonder what the French original was like.  While not inoffensive when listening to it in the background, one thinks that a director better than Joshua Logan could have made better use of Boyer and Chevalier.  And Horst Buchholz as the eventual winner needs to be more sympathetic.  The Great Waltz suggests that biopics of musicians from the thirties and forties are less successful than biopics of scientists.  The latter have better actors (Tracy, Robinson, while Paul Muni is certainly better in the role he won an oscar for than in A Song to Remember).  The scientist's struggles are easier to dramatize, and the often frustrating trial and effort is more true to life than imagining how musicians get their ideas.  Compared to the Chopin biopic, The Great Waltz is a visually more interesting movie, but not a very thoughtful one.  The three movies from last year have their virtues.  Neruda deals with the poet's experience of a McCarthyist like experience in Chile in the late forties, as opposed to the dictatorship that arose in the last days of his life.  The movie contrasts the proletarian poet with the lover of the high life, and has the amusing conceit of the policeman tracking Neruda as the latter flees into exile finding out he's actually a figment of Neruda's imagination two thirds of the way through the movie.  A Bigger Splash offers the sight of Ralph Fiennes grooving to 'Emotional Rescue,' and the slightly stranger sight of him trying to win his former flame rock star Tilda Swinton, who can barely talk while she's recovering form vocal cord surgery.  Certainly interesting, but it needs to be a bit more engaging.  Moana is clearly the movie of the week, with an engaging and pretty teenage heroine, less didactic reminders than usual in this sort of Disney movie, and with considerable invention, given that most of the movie takes place on a raft in a boundless ocean.

    --------Somewhat odd year, since I actually consider Fanny and Alexander a 1983 film, which means that my winners would actually be Bertil Guve (actor), Erland Josephson (supporting actor), and Gunn Wallgren (supporting actress).

     

    --------Although I've seen 79 of the 89 best actor winners, I've seen none of the best actor nominees for this year.

  3. More great quotes from 1982:

     

    Gandhi

     

     

    Lord Hunter: General, did you realise there were children – and women – in the crowd? Gen. Dyer: I did. Government Advocate: But that was irrelevant to the point you were making? Gen. Dyer: That is correct. Government Advocate: Could I ask you what provision you made for the wounded? Gen. Dyer: I was ready to help any who applied. Government Advocate: General, how does a child, shot with a .303 Lee Enfield, "apply" for help?

     

     

    Blade Runner

     

    It's too bad she won't live. But then again, who does?

     

    Missing

     

    Consul Phil Putnam: Listen, Mr Horman, I wish there was something we could say or do. Ed Horman: Well, there's something I'm going to do. I'm going to sue you, Phil. And Tower and the Ambassador and everybody who let that boy die. We're going to make it so hot for you you'll wish you were stationed in the Antarctic. Consul Phil Putnam: Well, I guess that's your privilege. Ed Horman: No, that's my right! I just thank God we live in a country where we can still put people like you in jail.

  4. I saw seven movies last week.  Hacksaw Ridge is like Gandhi in that what power it achieves arises from the nature of the protagonist, and not from Gibson's nor Attenborough's skill as a director. That does not mean that HR is remotely as good a movie as Gandhi.  Quite the contrary.  There is a good 40 minute movie about the conscientious objector medic who rescued dozens of soldiers in Okinawa under apparently hopeless circumstances.  Unfortunately to get there we have to get through sentimental cliches about romance, unimaginative diluted training camp shenanigans, and movie violence that while genuinely visceral in its impact, is aesthetically and morally questionable in the extreme.  Arrival is like Villeneuve's previous film Sicario in which portentousness serves as a substitute for thought.  This works a bit better in this movie when the scientists are confronting apparently inconceivably opaque aliens.  It help hides the good scientist/trigger-happy military for longer than it should.  But the core of the movie is an emotional subplot that relies on a trick Lost used, and which Villeneuve does not have the insight to pull off. There is a very bad last line which Jeremy Renner is forced to speak near the end of the movie.  The Racket was one of the first films nominated for best picture (it was nominated in the category Wings won, not the one Sunrise won.)  Looking at it, one can't imagine why.  There's something to be said about the criminal in charge, but not a lot.  The Prisoner of Shark Island benefits from Ford's professionalism, and from the compelling prison drama Samuel Mudd found himself in.  It also has some awkward, cringe-worthy scenes with African-Americans.  The same problem arises in The Adventures of Mark Twain.  On the other hand, I suppose I have a soft spot for old biopics.  It doesn't show Twain at his most biting and indignant, and it guts his misanthropy into a stand-up routine.  And Frederic March is certainly not my first choice to play Twain.  But there's enough of interest to keep watching it.  Fort Tilden is an independent movie of two awful privileged millennial twits who decide to have a day at the beach.  They act selfishly and irresponsibly, have a horrible time and learn apparently nothing.  There's genuine skill and realism here, but the movie seems more of a symptom of the narcissism and solipsism it's attacking.  So the movie of the week is the final one.  Marcello Mastroianni was indeed a great actor, and it's important to remember this even if you don't particularly care for 8 1/2.  Three lives and only one death shows this to be so in Raul Ruiz's elegant and strange fantasy, where Mastroiani's own daughter plays a supporting role.

    --------10 out of the 15 Academy nominations get a nomination from me.  That may be a record.

     

    --------James Mason become the first actor to get a nomination in five consecutive decades.  (Charles Chaplin was the first to get one in four)

     

    --------The nominations are larger this year, since once again I consider Fanny and Alexander a 1983 film and the extra nominations are for the 1982 movies.  In my view Guve, Josephson and Wallgren would have been the winners of 1983's actor, supporting actor, and supporting actress respectively.  Guve is my juvenile performer of the year.

  6. Before we hit 1982 I would like to mention that I am going with 1982 for Martin Scorsese’’s The King of Comedy.  For the longest time it was considered a 1983 film then it was revealed that is was released in December 1982 in Iceland which is a country the last time I checked. 

     

     

    I still think the Icelandic release date for KOC is an example of Wikipedia fake news.  I still don't see why the movie would be released in a market as small as Iceland, given that it is an offsetting black comedy whose virtues were not appreciated at the time.  Nor does the source Wikipedia cites look like a proper movie ad.

  8. Here's how I would rank them:

     

    Movies that were the best picture of the year:  The Lord of the Rings:  the Return of the King

     

    Movies I would have nominated for best picture:  The Hurt Locker

     

    Movies that came close to being nominated for best picture:  12 Years a Slave

     

    Movies that are perfectly enjoyable:  The Departed, Slumdog Millionaire, The Artist

     

    Movies that are perfectly reasonable:  Birdman, Spotlight

     

    Movies that I'm largely indifferent to:  Million Dollar Baby

     

    Irritating Oscarbait (benign edition):  (tThey didn't deserve to win, and it's insulting that they gamed the Oscar voters to win, but they can be enjoyed on their own terms):  Chicago, The King's Speech, Argo

     

    Irritating Oscarbait (malign edition):  (They gamed the system, and they're pernicious for doing so)  Gladiator, A Beautiful Mind

     

    Special Talented but Meretricious Category:  No Country for Old Men (considerable cinematic talents, but also morally questionable in the extreme)

     

    Just a bad movie:  Crash

  9. Yes, 1982 for The King of Comedy.

     

    Something's not kosher about this.  Yes Wikipedia says The King of Comedy premiered in Iceland in December 1982.  But that makes so little sense.  Icelandic has only 350,000 speakers, so subtitling a film would be expensive, and for a small market.  There's no clear connection between Iceland and Scorsese that would make him want to premier a film there.  And why would you premiere a very dark comedy in a country like Iceland in the first place.  It would be like premiering it in Peoria or some other not cinephiliac city.  Yes, there's a link to an Icelandic newspaper.  But the ad, which uses the supposedly Icelandic title imdb.com uses, makes no reference to the plot or to De Niro or Lewis, which a real ad should.  (The other movie ads on the same page have photos, English titles and/or reference to actors.

  10. I saw five movies last week.  The Love Witch is an interesting bird.  It's an elaborate pastiche of a certain sort of cheesy early seventies horror film, usually involving the occult.  In the case the hairstyle, fashions, chatter about the occult is so close to the seventies, that only a couple of shots of a computer and then the use of a cell phone near the end notes that its decades later.  On the one hand the pastiche has been arranged with considerable care and precision.  On the other hand the story it tells is of a fatuous sociopath.  Silence is certainly an elaborate, beautifully filmed and morally serious production about the Japanese extirpation of Christianity in the 1600s.  Andrew Garfield does a good job portraying the crisis of conscience his character faces.  It's certainly a watchable and compelling film.  And yet I feel slightly dissatisfied.  Compared to The Passion of Joan of Arc, Diary of a Country Priest, Winter Light, Nostalghia and The Sacrifice the movie does not quite succeed.  Why not?  I must admit I don't fully remember the original novel, but I recall it being much more depressing.  The movie emphasizes, in the final analysis, that Garfield is not broken.  As I remember the novel, it emphasizes that Christianity was destroyed in Japan for two centuries, which one might think was much more important.  Entre Nous is a competent drama about two French women and their unhappy marriages who meet in the fifties.  The actresses are good, but I suppose I expected a bit more, since I had very good memories a quarter century earlier of C'est La VieRollover is both a curiosity and interesting in its own right.  In retrospect the financial crises we've seen since make the basic scheme at its heart, the Arabs cause a new Great Depression by taking all their money out of banks, causing the currency to collapse, simple minded.  But that doesn't mean Jane Fonda, Kris Kristofferson and Hume Cronyn don't do a good job.  Nor is Pakula that bad, though an early, very static opening credit sequence is admittedly very unpromising.  Finally Paris Belongs to Us is the first film of Jacques Rivette.  As such it shares a lot with other Rivette films.  It's a very leisurely film, with lots of beautiful shots of Paris, and the characters are participating in putting on a play (in this case Pericles), Meanwhile the movie slowly concerns itself about a sinister, quasi-fascist conspiracy.  It's not clear why the conspiracy deals with a handful of generally unsuccessful theatre people, but it's worth watching regardless.,
