Il Ligabue di Salvatore Nocita è un film di spicco nel panorama italiano degli ultimi anni e i suoi meriti vengono fuori anche dalla “editio minor” per il cinema, tant’è che al Festival di Montréal ha vinto sia il massimo riconoscimento sia quello per il migliore attore.
The nineteenth-century human tragedy of Edgardo Mortara sheds a pitiless light on present-day religious attitudes to children.
I soli fotogrammi relativamente suggestivi di Suspiria (1977) sono quelli iniziali. Spaventata e indifesa, Susy (Jessica Harper) arriva da New York all’aeroporto di Friburgo, e il gioco di campo e controcampo, il ritmo binario della suspense si mantiene ancora nell’ambito del cinema “classico”

With his film Eraserhead, David Lynch has created what can only be called a surrealistic masterpiece. Uncompromising in style, this black-and-white film is not merely nightmarish: it is a nightmare captured on celluloid.
What does Apocalypse Now mean—the film as we have it, considering the minimal difference between the 35mm version with the title sequence and the 70mm version without, but ignoring all the prerelease stories and versions, preliminary scripts, and encrusted commentary?
After the somberness of Interiors, Woody Allen has returned to the romantic comedy style of Annie Hall. The result is his most lyrical and emotional film to date.

The following article was published at the time of Chaplin’s death in the periodical La Città Futura by Pietro Ingrao, then the president of the Italian Chamber of Deputies. Although one of the most engaged leaders of the Italian Communist Party, Ingrao has kept up his interest in film, which he had when I knew him as a young student in the Rome of the thirties.

Amongst film aficionados, the more simple-minded or shy smut fans, and the strong and growing coterie of Paul Schrader enthusiasts, Hardcore was awaited with special enthusiasm; yet all seem to have walked away in varying degrees of disappointment.
Comedians Jeff Foxworthy and Larry the Cable Guy bring their distinctive brand of humor to a packed crowd in Minneapolis.
In this two-part Channel 4 series, Professor Richard Dawkins challenges what he describes as ‘a process of non-thinking called faith’. He describes his astonishment that, at the start of the 21st century, religious faith is gaining ground in the face of rational, scientific truth.
The Deer Hunter has created such controversy as a political entity that I think it would be valuable to consider it, briefly, purely as an aesthetic object. Certainly art affects us in many ways, but many of these effects are brought to the film by ourselves.
