"That's the reason I keep returning as a client at every big market" he told Bruno Chatelin today at his booth at the 1st floor of Mariott 119; he also shared his passion for documentaries...

(Tilda Swinton, Tom Burke, Honor Swinton Burke, Joanna Hogg, © Lindsay Bellinger 2019)   By LINDSAY R. BELLINGER   The press conference for Joanna Hogg's The Souvenir, a wonderfully nostalgic look at the life of Julie (Honor Swinton Burke), a young female film student in early 80s England, was quite revealing. It seems that Hogg and Tilda Swinton have been friends since childhood, so they were very excited to work with one another on this semi-autobiographical look ...

ALL BERLIN 2019 REVIEWS up to midpoint By Alex Deleon photographed here below with  filmfestivals.com co founder Bruno Chatelin     The 69th edition of the Berlin Film Festival will be the last one under the auspices of director Dieter Kosslick, 70, who has run the event since 2002 with a certain flamboyance and an occasional flub.

MK2 is very proud from the reviews on the Varda doc

varda%20seat.jpg
With VARDA BY AGNÈS  Agnès Varda takes a seat on a theatre stage. This professional photographer, installation artist and pioneer of the Nouvelle Vague is an institution of French cinema but a fierce opponent of any kind of institutional thinking. In this film, she offers insights into her oeuvre, using excerpts from her work to illustrate – more associatively than chronologically – her artistic visions and ideas. Her lively, anecdote-rich and clever talk...
