Posted by Erik Luers on 10.13.2009

Erik Luers fills in for Jeremy Thomas and brings the news on David Lynch's artwork, Ingmar Bergman's movie props up for sale, Nine pushed back another three weeks, Annette Bening in a play, new Warner Archive titles announced, premiere of Survival of the Dead, Mike Nichols to get AFI Award, my coverage of the 47th New York Film Festival, and much, much more!

Hello everyone. I'm Erik Luers, not Jeremy Thomas. Jeremy is out this week looking for a rare film starring Ryan Reynolds, Danielle Harris, and Nathan Fillion, directed by Paul W.S. Anderson. It could be an Aliens in the Attic remake. At least, that's what he told me. He may actually be at a local Best Buy looking for the least banged up copy of the new Wizard of Oz DVD. He loves that movie. Okay, no he doesn't. He loves Eyes Wide Shut about as much as Will Helm loves Dune. Wow, Steve Gustafson filling in for Chad Webb this week and me filling in for Jeremy. 411 is turning into Saved by the Bell The New Class: Season Four. Remember that? Of course you don't. Nobody watched that shit.

Honoring Curtis Hanson's work (as this news report does with its L.A. Confidential inspired title, "Hush Hush") is a tradition I will maintain. So, for this week only, welcome to the 8 Mile Freestyle News Report. I was thinking about a "Lucky You Las Vegas News" or "The Hand That Rocks The Cradle Crazy News" sort of title, but 8 Mile will have to suffice. Man, he really kills Anthony Mackie with that final freestyle. Anyway, onto the news, ladies and gents.

Ingmar Bergman Film Props For Sale







A piece was missing, many were chipped and yet the chess set from 1957's The Seventh Seal was the star lot at an auction selling belongings from the estate of the classic film's late writer/ director Ingmar Bergman. The Swedish filmmaker whose career spanned over six decades died in July at the age of 89 leaving instructions for his assets to be sold at auction and as such 337 objects went under the hammer with all proceeds going to his family. In total, the estate earned an incredible 19.9 million kroner (that's over £160,000) with the chess set contributing more than £90,000 (one million kroner).

This total was far greater than that estimated by Bukowskis in Stockholm, the auction house handling the event, which had originally hoped for 10,000 to 15,000 kroner (about £900 to £1,340), mirroring the public's enthusiastic response to it. The items which were on display for four days prior to the auction were visited by over 8,000 visitors and the auctioneer's website also received 5,000 hits a day from 116 countries, all creating a public sale that lasted more than nine h ours and which Charlotte Bergstrom, a spokeswoman at Bukowskis, called "historic".

The chess set was immortalized in the movie as medieval knight, Antonius Block (played by Bergman regular Max von Sydow) plays Death in a bid to save this grimmest of reapers from claiming his life, and fans of the 1957 classic will remember that it is the king that is missing from the set as it is swept off the table and shatters on the ground. Other personal items available to the highest bidder along with the chess set included Bergman's Golden Globe awards, his writing desk and a gift from his grandson Ola.

Whoever scored that Seventh Seal chessboard has gotta be a real hit with the ladies. Imagine bringing a girl over and saying, "oh yeah. Over there are my board games. That one is from Ingmar Bergman." Then again, when you find yourself showing a girl your board games, chances are the date isn't going all that well. Some girls like jewelry, some like clothes, but has there ever been one impressed by Candy Land? Anyway, it's pretty wild to think that these items are still around, at least in multiple pieces. Movie collectibles like these are rare beyond belief, and I hope whoever purchased these displays them with pride. Don't go around thinking you're all that though. Every cinephile knows that the hottest item in The Seventh Seal was one Ms. Bibi Andersson. Now let's do the dance of death.



Nine Gets Pushed Back Another Three Weeks







The Weinstein Co. has shifted the release date of the Rob Marshall musical "Nine." Tuner, which was set to go out Nov. 25, will now see a limited bow Dec. 18 in Gotham and Los Angeles before TWC opens it wide on Dec. 25. The move takes "Nine" out of direct competition with "The Road," the Weinstein Co.'s post-apocalyptic road pic skedded for Nov. 25.

Shift reps yet another release change made because of "The Road," whose release was moved several times before TWC finally settled on the Nov. 25 date.The Weinstein Co. said "Nine's" date change was not made due to production delays.

"Nine" will now open against James Cameron's "Avatar," serving as counterprogramming for L.A. and New York specialty auds. The Christmas expansion pits it against "Sherlock Holmes," with Robert Downey Jr., and Meryl Streep-Steve Martin-Alec Baldwin romantic comedy "It's Complicated."

From Variety.com


Okay, stop looking at the picture above. This release date makes sense. The fresher in Oscar voters minds, the better, and Harvey Weinstein knows what he's doing when it comes to hot awards cailiber properties like these.Chicago also opened Christmas week, and that netted 13 nominations, and there's something about a Christmas release that seems very prestigious (yeah yeah, Erik, tell that to Cold Mountain!) It gets the film out of the way of the Weinstein Company's long delayed The Road, set to open Nov. 25th, and it also moves the film away from Penelope Cruz's other starrer, Broken Embraces (still set to open November 21st). How many nominations do I think this movie musical will garner? I don't know. How about 8 1/2?



Annette Bening to Murder Her Children for One More Week......In a Play







Academy Award nominee Annette Bening plays the title role in a new interpretation of Euripides' Medea, which officially opened Sept. 23 at UCLA's Freud Playhouse. The UCLA Live world premiere began previews Sept. 18 and will run through Oct. 18. Lenka Udovicki directs. Bening is joined onstage by Angus Macfadyen as Jason, Mary Lou Rosato as the nurse, Daniel Davis as Kreon, Hugo Armstrong as Aigeus and Joseph Ruskin as the tutor.

From Playbill.com

Oh that's right, Mrs. Warren Beatty and the guy from Saw III starring as lovers, or kind of lovers. In all seriousness, this is quite a good play (with a great killer of an ending), and Bening doesn't do enough theater work. Neither does Warren Beatty, come to think of it. I wish Bening would come back to New York (it's been years since she last tread the boards) and do something on Broadway. Maybe this could transfer. Medea on Broadway, sounds marketable enough. If she got nominated for a Tony, I'd make sure to keep Hilary Swank out of the running, as you know how she gets in the way of Bening's attempted trips to the podium. Medea, New York, six months, book it! I'd be there.



Live in Las Vegas? See Survival of the Dead This Month







Legendary filmmaker George A. Romero will be attending the inaugural FANGORIA TRINITY OF TERRORS, to be held October 30 through November 1 at The Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas! At midnight on Halloween, immediately following a special performance by Slipknot, Romero's latest opus SURVIVAL OF THE DEAD will screen at the Brenden Theatres inside the Palms!

Don't miss this rare opportunity to see the film before it's general release, with a living legend in-attendance! Tickets are now available online through http://www.trinityofterrors.com and through Vegas.com. You may also order tickets from VEGAS.com by phone - 1-888-LAS-VEGAS (527-8342) 24 hours a day. The movie, currently seeking distribution, will screen at midnight on Saturday, October 31st in the Brenden Theatres.

From Fangoria.com


This confirms, at long last, that Romero's new film has been completed and is ready to rock. I live nowhere near Las Vegas, and I have never been to the city, but people in the area should capitalize on the event. As to when this new film will debut in regular theaters.....your guess is as good as mine. Hopefully they don't dump it like the Weinsteins did with Diary of the Dead. It's good to know Romero keeps working and working hard though. His films, like death and taxes, are always something to look forward to. In the age of Shaun of the Dead and Zombieland though, will mainstream audiences still accept his films? My guess is no. When there's no more room in hell, the dead will walk Las Vegas.



David Lynch Artwork On Display Through December 12th







A selection of filmmaker David Lynch's large-scale paintings are on display at the Los Angeles gallery Griffin, in what is the artist's first solo exhibition in more than a decade. "David Lynch: New Paintings," a collaboration with James Corcoran and William Griffin, includes 13 mixed-media pieces and focuses on a variety of themes, such as religion and fantasy. "These paintings come from ideas conjured from our world," Lynch said. "The artist doesn't have to suffer to express suffering. If you get ideas that you want to translate to a medium you will derive so much more enjoyment from creating."

Lynch, who has received Oscar nominations for his directing work on Mulholland Drive, Blue Velvet, and The Elephant Man, said he's wanted to be a painter since he was in the ninth grade. "Film combines all the arts, but painting is such a beautiful world in itself, and I'm in love with the world of painting," he said. "When you are worki ng on a film, you focus on that, and there's very little time to do anything else. But in between I always paint. It's a different thing, totally, and it takes a while to get into it. If you were just working on painting, I think you would grow faster."

From VanityFair.com


I am only somewhat familiar with David Lynch's artwork, but this sounds like an awesome exhibit. Lynch started out as a painter, we must not forget, and then moved on to moving images and made his first short on the human anatomy. Sort of. It's available on DVD, and it's repetitive but effective. His second short, The Grandmother, is one of my favorite Lynch films, and the fine arts play an important role in that one as well (at least, in the characters' births at the beginning). I'd like to see more of his paintings, as they are very unique, abstract, and, well, distinctly him. I'm glad he hasn't left his craft behind. If you live in the L.A. area, please, between now and December 12th, try to go and check it out.



Five Nominees for Best Animated Feature?







It may not be just best picture increasing the number of its nominees this year. There's a good chance the best animated feature category could jump from three to five nominees for the first time since 2002, the only year to feature more than three contenders since it was created in 2001.

Academy rules state if there are 8 to 15 qualified animated features it triggers the category in any given year, and if there are 16 or more the nominee count can climb from three to five.

Oscar consultants for Disney, Focus, Sony, Fox and nearly every other distributor with a dog in this hunt are looking closely at the developing numbers and seem to be in general agreement that there are (barely) enough potential films there -- at least on paper. With "Up," "Ponyo," "Coraline," "Ice Age: Dawn o f the Dinosaurs," "Monsters Vs. Aliens" and "Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs" it has been a banner year for the genre, both critically and especially at the box office. Now with Wes Anderson's eagerly awaited "The Fantastic Mr. Fox" about to debut followed by another trio of films from Disney, it would seem an expanded field is a distinct possibility. It's only appropriate considering voters are going to have to get very creative in coming up with 10 genuine best picture nominees but coming up with a list of five deserving 'toons this year is a piece of cake.

From The Los Angeles Times


There has been a lot of talk about how this has been one hell of a year for animation, and five nominees would rightly showcase this. Actually, some deserving films would still get left out, but five is better than three. Some years it seemed like the Academy was having trouble filling up three slots (even though Surf's Up was amusing, it wasn't Oscar material or anything), but they won't have any trouble this year. Will Pixar win for the third time in a row? Probably. Hell, Toy Story 3 will probably make it four years in a row. But let's not forget, the last time there were five nominees for Animated Feature, Mr. Hayao Miyazaki walked off with a win for Spirited Away. Could he do it again this year for Ponyo?



IFC Center gets New Theaters and IFC Films gets New Films








On Friday, IFC, run by the Rainbow Media division of Cablevision, said that construction had begun on two new screens at its IFC Center at 323 Avenue of the Americas. It said the new screens, which it expected to open by the end of the year, would add about 100 new seats to the center's overall capacity, an increase of about 25 percent.

In a telephone interview, John Vanco, the vice president and general manager of the IFC Center, said that these new screen s would likely be used not to open more new films, but to hold onto successful films longer. "That's been a frustration, that we've had some really successful small films that we've had=2 0on calendar for a week or two weeks, that will do huge business, but then have to go to make room for the next one," Mr. Vanco said. Among recent films that hav e played particularly well for IFC Center, he said, was the full-length four-hour presentation of the Steven Soderbe rgh film "Che"; Matteo Garrone's crime drama "Gomorrah"; and a revival of Charles Burnett's "Killer of Sheep" which ran for nearly four months. Mr. Vanco declined to say how much the expansion would cost, but said that the new screens would replace a restaurant that had been part of the IFC Center when it opened in 2005.

IFC Films has also announced that it has acquired the British horror/comedy TORMENTED, and will debut it via its on-demand service this month. The film had originally been picked up for U.S. release by Paramount Vantage before that banner got shuttered earlier this year.

From The New York Times and Fangoria.com


I attend the IFC Center often enough, and also support IFC Films On Demand. Two new screens in the theater will be a welcome inclusion and hopefully longer runs will be a regular occurrence. I see that In the Loop is still playing there. That surprises me as it's going on three months. The Center's midnite showings are a lot of fun as well, and they are presented in 35MM (aka, "the right way"). Hopefully, when Antichrist debuts there on Oct. 23rd, it will have a good and lengthy run. I have to hang outside the theater in a few weeks to get people's initial reactions on that one. I suggest registered nurses wait outside in the lobby, no William Castle gimmick needed. IFC Films is becoming a very fearless distributor, and we need more of those.



31 New Titles Announced for the Warner Archive Collection





Warner Home Video's manufacturing-on-demand Warner Archive service is deepening its television category, offering feature-length TV pilots from Star Trek creator Gene Rodenberry, among other first-time-to-DVD titles.

One pilot, 1973's Genesis, was intended to be one of Roddenberry's first follow-ups to Star Trek. But the project, starring Alex Cor d as an astronaut living in a post-apocalyptic future, wasn't picked up for TV broadcast. Another pilot with simil ar themes, Planet Earth, aired as a TV movie on ABC in 1974.

The studio's Warner Archive Collection launched in March with mostly film classics. But the MOD service began bowing TV titles, including campy TV movies Don'ts Be Afraid of the Dark and Bad Ronald, this August. Warner Archive now offers 338 titles that can be pressed to disc upon order or delivered as a download.

Other now-available TV titles are the mini-series Jack the Ripper, starring Michael Caine; The Deliberate Stranger with Mark Harmon playing serial killer Ted Bundy; and Haywire, featuring Lee Remick portraying actress Margaret Sullivan. Also available are mini-series Nutcracker: Money, Madness & Murder and The Two Mrs. Grenvilles. Warner Archive also has bowed more than a dozen new feature film DVD premieres on the service, including Every Girl Should Be Married starring Cary Grant, The Mortal Storm with James Stewart and Whipsaw with Spencer Tracy.

From VideoBusiness.com


There are many pros and cons when it comes to the Warner Archive (they are free of special features and are recorded onto DVD-Rs), but if you support them, this is good news. Adding TV movies only widens their catalog, and real aficionados will be happy to buy these non bootlegs. I rather they make them available this way then not available at all. It's all about options. These new titles seem interesting (albeit a little pricey), and reminds me that I must one day seek out Bad Ronald. Now they just have to work on releasing more seasons of Perfect Strangers, Growing Pains, Step by Step, and Family Matters. C'mon WB, you're sitting on a goldmine here. Once you tap into 80s nostalgia, the money will flow like a waterfall.



Manny Farber's Writing Finally Compiled Into One Book





Released on October 1st, 2009, "Farber on Film" contains [Farber's] extraordinary body of work in its entirety for the first time, from his early and previously uncollected weekly reviews for The New Republic and The Nation to his brilliant later essays (some written in collaboration with his wife, Patricia Patterson) on Godard, Fassbinder, Herzog, Scorsese, Altman, and others. Featuring an introduction by editor Robert Polito that examines in detail the stages of Farber's career and his enduring significance as writer and thinker, "Farber on Film" is a landmark volume that will be a classic in American criticism.

From loa.org


For years, Farber's film reviews have been very hard to find, and I'd only known of him through his iconic terms, "white elephant" and "termite art". I had heard of his passing last year at the age of 91, and was interested in what he wrote but couldn't find much. This book is a welcome addition to anyone's library. It's nice having an entire collection of a person's reviews, but I must admit to being unsure of how well the book will sell. Too many film books go out of print quite quickly (many of Kael's work from the 70s and 80s can only be found in public/school libraries and Ebay), but I'm glad the publishers chose art before profit. I look forward to getting this book really soon and familiarizing myself further with Mr. Farber's writing.



Mike Nichols to be Honored with AFI Award





Mike Nichols has been tapped by the American Film Institute to receive the AFI Life Achievement Award. Sir Howard Stringer, chair of the AFI board, made the announcement Sunday. The kudo will be presented at a tribute in Los Angeles next summer. "His artistry has spanned the mediums of modern storytelling -- movies, television and the stage -- and his gifts across five decades continue to inspire artists and audiences alike," Stringer said in a statement. "It is AFI's honor to present him with its 38th Life Achievement Award."

From Variety.com


A very good director gets an AFI tribute and Lifetime Achievement Award. Good for him. Nichols is a director who's work has at times been inconsistent, but when he's on, he's really on. He started out strong with great films (Who's Afraid of Virgina Woolf and The Graduate), and is still turning out excellent work like Angels in America and Closer. I haven't seen Charlie Wilson's War yet, but I've heard good things. The AFI is a commendable organization that needs to focus on the artists and not on their AFI TV shows (remember the AFI Awards that tried to serve as a precursor to the Oscars? That didn't last long). Hopefully, the ceremony will be broadcast on television, and I hope Dustin Hoffman, a fellow AFI recipient, winds up handing him the award.

The Hush-Hush Editorial Section: COVERAGE OF THE 47th ANNUAL NEW YORK FILM FESTIVAL (9/25 - 10/11)

The 47th Annual New York Film Festival took place in accordance with The Film Society of Lincoln Center from September 25th - October 11th, 2009. It featured controversial works, classic works, talk backs, Q&As, screenings of old favorites, and many other rewards for film lovers or, in the spirit of the festival, well versed cineastes. Below are my initial thoughts on three films I was able to view at the festival. These are not full length reviews but rather capsules of jumbled thoughts. I hope that works for you.



Antichrist: Saturday, October 3rd 1:00PM

The talk of the town (and the graphic nightmares of many others), Lars Von Trier's Antichrist is a beautiful looking piece filled with more power and visceral shock and raw performances than any other film this year. It is at times disgusting and sickly, but then again, so are the characters that inhabit it. He (Willem Dafoe) and She (Charlotte Gainsbourg) give remarkable performances as a couple getting over the death of their young child, and that's as much a synopsis as I'll give.

Please don't read anything more about it. Everyone is trying to describe in vivid detail what occurs in the intensely crafted third act. I think they must have slept through the first two. Everything that happens has been premeditated by the tone. The couple tries to use sex as comfort, but here it is anything but. Every time the couple makes love, you are very frightened and wary.

Von Trier is a stubborn director, almost excruciatingly so (but not as much as another festival fav, Michael Haneke), and many will laugh at Antichrist and dismiss it as artsy sex porn for nihilists and talking animal lovers. It's certainly a fantasy, but how can any filmmaker accurately depict their dreams on screen without getting laughed at? The film is brutal and nasty, but there is a power to it that is not cheap or mishandled. The graphic stuff adds the exclamation point but does not compile the sentence.

Some may want to bring Christian ideology into the discussion (and Von Trier, with the inclusion of Eden and hell and the foreboding title, definitely welcomes that), but we must not lose sight of the forest through the trees. It's an emotional piece about everything and nothing. It's what you bring to it and what you get out of it. Regardless, it is a remarkable, sinfully well made film. A full review will be up from me soon.

Rating: 9/10


The White Ribbon: Thursday, October 8th 9:00PM

A technically well made bore, Michael Haneke's The White Ribbon is interesting but too drawn out and content with itself. Haneke's last film was the American remake of Funny Games (an ironic title if there ever was one), the movie that tested the audience's patience and tried to intentionally anger and dissatisfy them. All for the love of art! This new one is a bit better, but it too dares you not to care. We're on the outside looking in. Even Bertolt Brecht would demand a little sympathy for the viewer.

Taking place before World War I, the film focuses on a small village's families and aristocrat higher ups in 1913 (approx). The parents are abusive to their children, the men are abusive to their wives, the girls are abusive to their birds, the boys are abusive to other birds, a working class man is abusive to cabbage, and a sharp cable wire is abusive to a doctor's horse. This film is bleaker than Antichrist. It's also too exaggerated to be powerful.

Some harsh scenes work (the little boy brings the cane to his father and closes the door, and we hear the boy's screams as he's smacked with the cane). Some humane moments work too (a little boy curiously asks his sister what death is, a boy's hands are strapped down to prevent him from masturbating in the middle of the night, and a cordial and nervous man speaks with his future father in law about marrying his daughter).

The problem is that none of these scenes escalate; they're isolated incidents from the Marquis de sade. The scenes are well shot (nicely photographed in black and white), but the pacing lags, and the absence of a score makes the proceeding lack something. Throughout the movie, we watch these children closely, hoping to see a sign of behavior that would cue us to the impending reign of Hitler (whom they would live under) in twenty years time. Well, we kind of do and we kind of don't. There's no foreshadowing, only slight implications.

The film is narrated in retrospect by the village's school teacher, an interesting choice given he is, in terms of age and alliance, in between the parents and the children. He claims to not remember everything, and Chad Webb would call him an unreliable narrator, leading us to question certain scenes (and their dialogue) in which he couldn't have been present for (i.e. the doctor's over the top verbal beatdown to his wife). Maybe it's supposed to be an exaggeration. That's a commendable theory. I just couldn't get involved in this one. It will cure your insomnia and make you pull your hair out. Your eyelids will feel like they weigh fifty-five pounds. Mine did. Haneke is either a director you love or hate. I'm pretty sure he prefers you hate him.

Rating: 5/10


Life During Wartime: Saturday, October 10th 9:00PM

As bizarre a movie as it is, Todd Solondz's new film is sweet and funny enough to recommend. The characters are all oddballs, some perverted, some afraid of being molested by older men, but they just want to get on and live their lives in peace. A young boy is getting ready for his bar mitzvah, while his father is being released from jail for pedophilia charges. Only the little boy doesn't know this and thought his dad had died years ago. Tommy this ain't.

Meanwhile, mom (Allison Janney) is screwing a pudgy old man (Michael Lerner), and tells her son how wet the guy makes her. Uh uh. Meanwhile, the boy's homeless looking aunt is coming back to Florida, and she is haunted by the ghost of her ex-lover, Paul Reubens. So you see, it's a movie that marches to the beat of its own drum. It's supposedly a sequel/prequel to Happiness, a film which I did not see, but would like to.

This new movie has a lot of Jewish humor thrown into the mix, and it focuses primarily on a dysfunctional family gone kaput. They're not uncaring, just different. When the father encounters the boy's older brother at college, he asks him if his son is gay. The son responds "no". The father then asks if his son has had fantasies of raping women. I'm just describing this, folks. You can work on the subtext.

I did laugh a lot, and the movie is well acted, or at least as well acted as a screenplay like this would allow. Charlotte Rampling and Ally Sheedy even show up for cameos. The film was shot with those new, relatively cheap Red cameras that have become all the rage as of late. The movie looks good, and Minnesota, Puerto Rico and parts of Canada (the film's shooting locations), sure look like Florida, at least the way Solonddz shot it. The movie ends on an ambiguous note near a Pizza Hut and Taco Bell. It's good to know that, even during wartime, two food conglomerates such as these can coexist.

Rating: 7/10



And here, for the crazy video of the week, is a strange short Public Service Announcement from Lars Von Trier (I'm sure the director goes through this quite often.....).
