LFF - WHAT I LOVE THE MOST (Lo Que Mas Quiero) [2010] dir Delfina Castanigno

#
 WHAT I LOVE THE MOST is an assured debut by former assistant/editor Delfina Castanigno. Assured because of the risks she takes; the sort of story the film tells, the way it was structured and the way she chose to shoot it all.   The film is about two unnamed friends, one lives in the South of Argentina and just lost her father, the other comes visit from Buenos Aires taking a break from her boyfriend of 4 years. The film's structure seems to be chronological, but there is no way of knowing ...

Our Paris Series Part II: La Nouvelle Vague

user
By Sophie Nellis   Belmondo and Seberg    The French New Wave – known as la nouvelle vague– was a celebration of youth, Paris and, above all, cinema. Many people don’t know that the term nouvelle vague was first used in 1957 to describe the new generation of French youth, emancipated 18 to 30 year olds who were free-thinking and keen to throw off the legacy of the Second World War. It was only following the success of François Truffaut’s Les...

Hommage To A Film Revolutionary

 Wednesday, May 7-------This May marks a milestone in recent world history. It is the 40th anniversary of the “events of 1968”, a series of revolutionary protests that spanned the globe and created social and political turmoil, particularly in the United States, England and France. While the protests centered on the escalating war in Vietnam, the main engine was a discontent with politics as usual. In France, in particular, art mixed with politics, as leading filmmakers, artists and philoso...

Friday, July 13-----To celebrate Bastille Day (and the general love of all things French), the Jacob Burns Film Center, the prominent arthouse complex north of New York City, is hosting The French New Wave film series, reminding us all what it was about the French that we fell in love with in the first place. In the late 1950s and early 1960s, the French "Nouvelle Vague" (New Wave) was the most dynamic cinema on the planet. It literally exploded when a group of young Cahiers du Cinema ...
