David Ehrlich's 10 Best Films of NYFF 11
How many of these will get a wide release? My guess is 3- The Descendents (it’s Clooney), Hugo (Scorsese/ family film), Melancholia (wishful thinking?)
Also, if you don’t already, definitely keep-up with David’s Criterion Corner tumblr, it’s a must read.
Bresson’s Notes on Cinematography
Definitely give it a look:
A small, powerful book of significant thoughts on filmmaking. PDF format below.
Allow me to preface this brief statement with this: I do not enjoy hyperbole.
That said, Robert Bresson is indeed one of the five filmmakers that I can count on my left hand that have changed the art of filmmaking and continues to effect it today — often in ways that are subtle but nevertheless deeply profound. His work is a part of the nervous system of worthwhile filmmaking. If you have not seen a Robert Bresson film stop what you are doing and watch Pickpocket right now. I mean that.
