even though spielberg has made significant use of modern technology in recent times , we realized that high tech did not mesh with this film . beneath his powerful style and incredible technique , we understood that we had to surprise him by heading towards something that reclaims the “artist’s” work . what mattered was not our know - how but the emotion that we could transmit to a simple thing .

t’s established in allen lore that the picture was originally a two - and - a - half - hour solipsistic ramble , with alvy and annie’s fling relegated to a subplot . but in the edit , their relationship was what brought the film to life , and the dead wood was mercilessly cut back . allen’s preferred name for the film he’d originally planned was anhedonia : a greek term for the inability to feel pleasure . there couldn’t have been a less appropriate title for the finished film .
its handlers , from the keiko project , a collaboration of marine experts from the humane society of the united states and the free willy - keiko foundation charity , coaxed it a few miles to the more remote taknes fjord in november 2002 . they still often fed it the 110lb of fish that it required every day .
s ( digital video discs ) accelerated these trends , with the computer emerging as a new production unit in filmmaking and the internet as a site for film distribution and exhibition . one result of these changes was the appearance on the world stage of filmmakers—particularly chinese - language ones—from places that had previously been little recognized within international film culture .

he first film in which allen directed diane keaton was also , perhaps not coincidentally , the first film to suggest he had more in him than than madcap , gag - driven comedies . ( they appeared in a film together before his directing days ) . that’s not to say sleeper isn’t as madcap and gag - driven as his earliest work : a film about a health food shop owner who falls into a vat of liquid nitrogen and wakes up 200 years later kind of has to be . but allen’s painting with new colours here : romance , melancholy , and even – gasp ! – coherent plotting , while the uproarious robot butler sequence showcased his talent for silent - era physical clowning .

the movie doesn ' t update the musical so much as bring it to a high electric streamlined gloss . the director rob marshall , a stage veteran making his big screen debut , paces the film with gusto . it ' s not all breakneck production numbers , but it ' s never far from one . and the choreography doesn ' t copy fosse ' s inimitable style , but it ' s not far from it , either ; the movie sideswipes imitation on its way to homage .
t opens with one of allen’s most vividly written , shot and acted scenes ever , as judy davis and sydney pollack arrive for dinner and announce their separation plans . the way their best friends , allen and farrow , respond – shocked , but also offended – turns this into a rapid marvel of four - way characterisation . this is allen’s most scorching anatomy of marital bonds , a film so bitter , witheringly frank and unsentimental he entirely reinvented his style of shooting and editing for it .
in order to capture the spirit of leonardo dicaprio’s character , we chose to employ a creative process that did not resort to the use of high technology . we used the same techniques as the film’s protagonist , by imagining the characters in stamp form , made from the same cutters as those used in the film by frank abagnale jr . we wanted to preserve that crudeness .

the color palette does so much to set the feel of the jet setting era in which the film takes place . was there an intentionality to the colors that you selected and if so , what materials did you reference ?
it’s a glorious premise , explored by allen and his cast to dazzlingly funny ends . what gives the film its existential bite , though , is a two - part acknowledgement late in the game : firstly , that the beautiful solace film offers is a lie , and secondly , that it doesn’t matter . watching it , you feel ( and probably look ) like farrow’s heroine : a smiling face in the dark , lit up , flickering , alive .

in russia a significant figure to emerge was aleksandr sokurov , whose early films had been “shelved , ” or prohibited from public screening , until 1987 . sokurov’s first film to be widely seen internationally was mat’ i syn ( 1997 ; mother and son ) . in 2002 he made russki kovcheg ( russian ark ) , a 96 - minute tour of the hermitage museum in st . petersburg , in a single take without cuts , the longest steadicam shot ever recorded . aleksey balabanov directed both crime dramas— brat ( 1997 ; brother ) and a sequel , brat ii ( 2000 ; brother ii ) —and meditative historical works , including pro ourodov i lioudiei ( 1998 ; of freaks and men ) .
e’s speaking to the film’s other main character , allen’s documentary filmmaker clifford stern , in the one scene they share , sitting apart from a wedding celebration at the film’s very end . not here the fortune - cookie insights that some of allen’s lesser pictures call philosophy . here he’s thinking deeply about moral choice , the question of whether guilt in your own eyes or the eyes of the world matters more . this bubblingly wise film , rich with beautifully dovetailing metaphors about blindness and conscience and the perils of self - knowledge , has only grown in stature since its release . it is allen on soaring form , gliding so elegantly through its maze of ideas it’s as if the spirit of fred astaire gave it lift - off .

( 2006 ) . the success of nearly all these works as international art films was a sign that , despite hollywood’s dominance of the world film marketplace , there was still a place for distinctive national visions in cinema at the turn of the 21st century .
after three years at paramount , he returned to design and remained active throughout the 1980 ' s and 90 ' s , working with directors like mr . coppola on ' ' the cotton club ' ' and mr . de palma on ' ' the bonfire of the vanities ' ' and ' ' carlito ' s way . ' ' tall and charismatic , he even acted a bit , appearing in a bit role in the 1996 film ' ' mulholland falls , ' ' a film he also , of course , designed .
an entirely new arena for tap dancers opened up with the introduction of “talking” motion pictures . although the technology for sound on film had been around for several years , it was not until the jazz singer ( 1927 ) that the public accepted this new medium . …
the original stamps , that we created in a few hours , are those that exist in the final product . the magic of the first try was not altered . the force of the sketch remained . that seemed to cohere with the spielberg spirit . when it was time to sync our title sequence with his film , we asked him to send us some images from his avid or via the internet , but we also received an actual piece of film because he edits his films the old - fashioned way , on a moviola .
13 . city of god was brazil ' s official submission to the best foreign language film category for the 75th academy awards in 2003 . but it failed to receive a nomination . the same year , miramax released the movie in the u . s . which qualified it for other categories the following year . in 2004 , city of god was nominated for four academy awards ( best director , best editing , best cinematography , and best adaptated screenplay ) . it was the first time a brazilian film earned more than two oscar nods .
the curtain - raiser for cannes in 2002 was the definition of a duff opener , pleasing nobody : allen cast himself as a once - fêted director who suffers an attack of hysterical blindness . strenuous farce ensues , with a feature - length quantity of dead time on screen , and only téa leoni threatening to be an asset . the punchline explains its cannes berth : when the $ 60m movie allen’s character directs while blind is a resounding flop , his one consolation is that the french love it . but not even the french loved hollywood ending .
9 . city of god marks the acting debut of 19 - year - old alice braga , now one of brazil ' s most famous actresses . she had appeared in commercials as a child but hadn ' t done much since . she credits the film for her current success .
motion picture , series of still photographs on film , projected in rapid succession onto a screen by means of light . because of the optical phenomenon known as persistence of vision , this gives the illusion of actual , smooth , and continuous movement . the motion picture is a remarkably effective…
was worried that if this movie flopped at the box - office ( like his previous two films ) , it would be the end of his directing career . luckily for him , that didn ' t happen . after an initial lukewarm response , the film became a surprise sleeper hit .
at the end of the 20th century , japan’s long - established film culture was characterized by individual work rather than by dominant movements , as had been the case in the past . as in france , filmmakers of the japanese new wave era of the 1960s continued to be active , with
allen has often shown an interest in stage magic and hypnotism ( see also : scoop , magic in the moonlight ) , but this enthusiasm reached its unfortunate nadir in this dodo of a light comedy , his most expensive film ( it cost $ 33m ) and by his own reckoning among the worst . his own performance as a wisecracking insurance investigator hypnotised into jewel theft was one problem , but helen hunt doesn ' t fare much better as the ruthless efficiency expert he wants off his back . all the film achieves is managing to look lavishly nostalgic for a more sexist era .
f allen’s many mooted returns to form , here’s the film that actually was one : a lacerating comedy of financial and romantic recessions , and his best work since his extraordinary mid - career hot streak came crunching to a halt in the early 1990s . cate blanchett won an oscar for her heart - tightening performance in the title role – a kind of blanche dubois of park avenue brought low by her husband’s economic chicanery . jasmine’s dogged denial of her desperate circumstances is the fire under the film’s feet , and watching her crumble is agonising , thrilling – and , most damning of all , great fun .
mckee believes that executives can engage listeners on a whole new level if they toss their powerpoint slides and learn to tell good stories instead . in his best - selling book story : substance , structure , style , and the principles of screenwriting , published in 1997 by harper - collins , mckee argues that stories “fulfill a profound human need to grasp the patterns of living—not merely as an intellectual exercise , but within a very personal , emotional experience . ” what follows is an edited and abridged transcript of mckee’s conversation with hbr .
entertaining for the most part , but many of the concepts introduced in the film are flawed . i wouldn ' t call
minority report
the most intelligent science - fiction film ever made . maybe one of the most interesting . the future that spielberg creates is believable and is one that certainly could happen . maybe not the whole predicting the future thing , but most of the technology used in the film mirrors the technology in our world today . on a narrative standpoint ,
minority report
is intense yet many of the things that happen may make you wonder why they happened . the entire story is based on anderton seeing himself as a future killer . the question is , how did his future appear on that screen ? everything is based on what he saw but if he didn ' t see it none of the things that happened would have happened . it ' s a flawed concept that really doesn ' t make any sense .
the film takes place in the 1960s and spielberg desired for us to transplant the audience into a varied universe , with a bit of chic and a sense of drama ( certainly not a humorous cartoon ) . we decided to take on the same approach as those who created title sequences during that era : as if we were in that era , working amongst colleagues . not in terms of technological means , but in terms of philosophy . we wanted to deliver a personal creation that has our mark , that works in contrast to studio title sequences in which the artist’s hand is less visible . we wish to have the audience of this film rediscover a paradise lost .
ere it is : not just allen ' s creative pinnacle , but perhaps the most perfectly assured braiding of comedy and drama in mainstream american film . it feels like the miraculous sweet spot between all of its filmmaker ' s many modes and tones – biting without being cruel , profound without seeming sanctimonious , warmly humane without collapsing into goo .
fter a run of russet - hued collaborations with cinematographer darius khondji , allen is working here for the first time with the venerable vittorio storaro , and the change has done him the good . a couple of scenes with bobby and vonnie together are the most visually beautiful sequences in an allen film in goodness knows how long . and then there ' s
its fortunes changed in 1993 when it starred in free willy , about a boy fighting the unscrupulous owner of an oceanarium to liberate its star turn . the film became a worldwide hit , and when the living conditions of the real
willy
became known , adults and children funded a multi - million dollar campaign to save keiko from its tank in mexico .
todd haynes '
far from heaven
is like the best and bravest movie of 1957 . its themes , values and style faithfully reflect the social melodramas of the 1950s , but it ' s bolder , and says out loud what those films only hinted at . it begins with an ideal suburban connecticut family , a husband and wife
team
so thoroughly absorbed into corporate culture they ' re known as
mr . and mrs . magnatech .
then it develops that mr . magnatech is gay , and mrs . magnatech believes that the black gardener is the most beautiful man she has ever seen .
it was superstar rajnikant who blessed me to join the film industry . he paid rs 10 , 000 / - on behalf of me to the dancer ' s association and bought the dancer card for me . now , the price of card is rs 15 , 000 / - . i came to the film industry with the recommendation of rajnikanth . i joined as a dancer for shiva shankar master for one year and then i worked for prabhu deva master for 5 months . i am the first and only dancer to become master with in two years of entering the field as dancer . after seeing my phenomenal rise , the dancers ' union passed on a new rule that a dancer should have a minimum of 5 years of experience to become a dance master .
far from heaven
uses superb craftsmanship to make this film look and feel like a film from the 1950s . todd haynes says he had three specific inspirations : douglas sirk ' s
all that heaven allows
( 1955 ) , which starred jane wyman and rock hudson in the story of a middle - aged widow and her handsome young gardener ; sirk ' s
imitation of life
( 1959 ) , with lana turner as a rich woman whose maid ' s daughter ( susan kohner ) passed for white , and max ophuls '
the reckless moment
( 1949 ) , about blackmail . in sirk ' s films you often have the feeling that part of the plot is in code ; that one kind of forbidden love stands for another .
17 . in the english - subtitled version of the film , mané galinha is called
knockout ned .
the name was changed to avoid confusion since mané galinha means
chicken manuel .
in the u . s . a chicken is a coward , but , as mentioned above , in brazil it means
womanizer
and the character also stole chickens . the term
knockout
means
handsome
in american slang .

. with so many issues , sony cancelled the film in january 2010 .
his work was also notable for its keen detail - - like a copy of a child - rearing guide on a bedroom bookshelf in ' ' virginia woolf ' ' - - as well as its ingenuity , as when he re - created tiananmen square for the 1997 film ' ' red corner ' ' using a 200 - foot - wide blue screen and thousands of 20 - inch concrete slabs cemented to a parking lot in playa del rey , calif .
with the fall of the berlin wall in 1989 and the collapse of the soviet union two years later , the film cultures of russia and the former soviet - bloc countries of eastern europe experienced dramatic transformations . formerly controlled and supported by the state , film production shifted into private hands . with the boundaries that previously had divided eastern from western europe now torn down , filmmakers were freed to work where they pleased or where opportunities existed . a prominent example was the polish director krzysztof kieslowski , who in 1991 made la double vie de véronique ( the double life of veronique ) , which suggested a mysterious symmetry between two women , one living in poland and the other in france . kieslowski shifted his filmmaking work to france , where he made the important trois couleurs ( “three colours” ) trilogy— bleu ( 1993 ; blue ) , rouge ( 1994 ; red ) , and blanc ( 1994 ; white ) —before his death in 1996 .
7 . the scene where buscapé tells marina ( graziela moretto )
he never took a hot bath
wasn ' t scripted . it was actually footage of rodrigues and moretto talking off camera . during a pause in shooting , he was simply telling her about his life in the city of god . 8 . the film was not actually shot in the cidade de deus , as it was too dangerous . it was shot in a neighboring , less dangerous area .
as beloved as city of god is ( currently # 21 in the imdb top 250 ) , it remains a mysterious star in the film universe . meirelles followed it up with the underrated constant gardener in 2005 , but has yet to match its greatness again . city of god stands on its own at this point and is still one of the best gangster films of the new millennium . let ' s dig deeper into the movie and discover what was going down behind the scenes :
gene hackman , ian holm and martha plimpton feature in the flashbacks and present - day scenes she’s weighing up against each other , trying to work out where her life slid into a rut of barely noticed unfulfilment , and how to escape it . in the film’s most unnerving scene , she bumps into a high - school friend ( sandy dennis ) who dumps a shocking checklist of grievances in her lap , revealing marion ' s long - held view of herself as a kind of mirage .
filmmaking was inevitably affected by the prolonged , bitter , and brutal breakup of yugoslavia during the 1990s . under the circumstances , every film from the region was likely to come under attack from some group as a work of propaganda . this was the case for the work of emir kusturica , who had gained wide recognition for his films in the 1980s but caused controversy in the 1990s with underground ( 1995 ) and crna macka , beli macor ( 1998 ; black cat , white cat ) .
absolutely . we follow people in whom we believe . the best leaders i’ve dealt with—producers and directors—have come to terms with dark reality . instead of communicating via spin doctors , they lead their actors and crews through the antagonism of a world in which the odds of getting the film made , distributed , and sold to millions of moviegoers are a thousand to one . they appreciate that the people who work for them love the work and live for the small triumphs that contribute to the final triumph .
city of god is a great film , but it resonated with viewers because it ' s a gangster movie . the movie tells the origin of li ' l zé , a killer with serious self - loathing issues . and meirelles spins his tale , as well as others , with hyperkinetic editing , handheld cameras , and sun - soaked lighting . the effect is scorsese - esque and thrilling . but city of god also manages to skirt glorifying the violence . you don ' t envy these guys .
his first film work as production designer came in 1956 , for ' ' baby doll , ' ' directed by mr . kazan , for whom he later designed ' ' a face in the crowd , ' ' and ' ' splendor in the grass . ' ' the approval of mr . kazan and appreciation of his work opened other director ' s eyes . mr . sylbert was in constant demand , working as an art director or production designer on more than two dozen films from 1956 to 1975 .
on the subject of villains , raimi considered showcasing the transformation of dr . curt connors into the lizard , with dylan baker reprising his role . he also had plans to upgrade bruce campbell to a more significant role than his prior cameos . in december 2009 , it was reported that john malkovich was in talks to play the vulture , with anne hathaway playing felicia hardy . hardy would be taking a departure from her prior portrayals in this film , becoming
vulturess
instead of the familiar black cat .
jump cuts abound , straight - to - camera interviews break up the plot , and carlo di palma’s handheld camera whip - pans all over the place , seeming to reel from one accusation or gossip - bomb to the next as this foursome all experiment separately with new lovers : perfect catch liam neeson , aerobics bimbo lysette anthony , impressionable student juliette lewis . it’s woody’s last film with farrow and feels , even more now , like a brutal post - mortem on their whole relationship : he even makes himself the loser .
in 1994 , allen adapted his first professionally produced play – a quick - fire cold war farce in which a family of american tourists are mistaken for spies – for the television network abc . a previous film version had been made in 1969 , and apparently niggled away at allen for years , though his own take in no sense redeems it : it looks shatteringly cheap and ugly , while the cast ( which includes michael j . fox and julie kavner ) have nothing to work with but reheated , three - decades - old schtick .
he best of allen’s europe - trotting films is the one most in touch with its touristic soul . scarlett johansson and rebecca hall are two young american women who fall for javier bardem’s divorced artist during a catalonian excursion – and like a midsummer night’s sex comedy , it’s the idea of romance as a mini - break for the soul that gives the film its rosily libidinous power . of its unspeakably attractive cast , penélope cruz was the eventual oscar - winner ; oftentimes , you sense allen’s just happy to be tagging along for the ride .
adio days is allen being nostalgic about nostalgia : it’s the kind of film about the olden days they just don’t make any more . the model was fellini’s free - flowing 1973 masterpiece amarcord , with rimini swapped for rockaway beach in queens , where a working - class jewish family buzz and drift through everyday life , while the music of glenn miller and duke ellington crackles comfortingly from the living room set . allen weaves in further stories of stars and wannabes , muddling memory and fantasy . the result isn’t so much a collage as a patchwork quilt .
woody’s fourth and , thus far , final london film is a lightly cynical ensemble juggling act , taking in gold - digging , psychic love advice and ambulance - chasing literary plagiarism . josh brolin is well cast as a desperate novelist , but gemma jones has the best of it as the jilted wife of anthony hopkins , whose new girlfriend is a tacky ex - hooker ( lucy punch ) . allen , alas , seems above all of his characters here , and inflicts petty twists of fate on them which feel forced and malicious rather than wise or illuminating .
erhaps of all allen’s early comedies , this is the one that could be remade today with the fewest concessions to modern taste . that might be because on its release , it already felt like a film out of time : it’s effectively the marx brothers’ duck soup with a cuban spin ( allen’s wilting new york nebbish accidentally becomes a dictator ) and survives on its never - ending supply of lunatic gags , thundering past like an express train . it looks cheap , which is funny in itself , and satire and spoofery are crammed in until it bulges at the seams .
reilly brings a kind of pathetic sincere naivete to the role - - the same tone , indeed , he brings to a similar husband in
the hours ,
where it is also needed . it ' s surprising to see the confidence in his singing and dancing , until you find out he was in musicals all through school . zellweger is not a born hoofer , but then again roxie hart isn ' t supposed to be a star ; the whole point is that she isn ' t , and what zellweger invaluably contributes to the role is roxie ' s dreamy infatuation with herself , and her quickly growing mastery of publicity . velma is supposed to be a singing and dancing star , and zeta - jones delivers with glamor , high style and the delicious confidence the world forces on you when you are one of its most beautiful inhabitants . as for queen latifah , she ' s too young to remember sophie tucker , but not to channel her .
allen cast a fond eye back to the hollywood musicals of his childhood for this all - singing , star - stuffed confection , which follows a clan of wealthy manhattanites chasing after love in new york , venice and paris . edward norton , drew barrymore , julia roberts and goldie hawn are among the game cast singing their hearts out . despite those names it was a commercial flop , and its airiness can sometimes play as insubstantial . but when the film works , it really works : not least when hawn defies gravity on the banks of the seine in its magical finale .
allen has yet to submit a film entitled “will this do ? ” , but anything else comes closest , both in its title and for recycling old tropes about thwarted creativity and being stuck with a pesky , permanently difficult long - term girlfriend ( christina ricci ) who wants to move her mother in . jason biggs’s character is meant to be an aspiring comedy writer , but allen’s script gives him not one funny line . all of these go to his ageing intellectual mentor , a veritable fount of park - bench philosophical witticisms , played by guess who . go on , have a guess .
because the film deliberately lacks irony , it has a genuine dramatic impact ; it plays like a powerful 1957 drama we ' ve somehow never seen before . the effect is oddly jolting : contemporary movies take so many subjects for granted that they never really look at them . haynes , by moving back in time , is able to bring his issues into focus . we care about the characters in the way its period expected us to . ( there is one time rupture ; frank uses the f - word to his wife and the fabric of the film breaks , only to be repaired when he apologizes . ) julianne moore , dennis quaid and dennis haysbert are called on to play characters whose instincts are wholly different from their own . by succeeding , they make their characters real , instead of stereotypes . the tenderness of cathy and raymond ' s unrealized love is filled with regret that is all the more touching because they acknowledge that their society will not accept them as a couple . when raymond and his daughter leave town , cathy suggests may she could visit them sometimes , in baltimore , but raymond gently replies ,
i ' m not sure that would be a good idea .
