Ventura Pons: When democracy returned to Spain, cultural life received a shot in the arm. One of the results was the deeply personal and challenging work of this Catalunyan auteur. by Gerard Dapena.
Amelie: Jean-Pierre Jeunet's Gallic blockbuster, the heartwarming tale of a simple girl who turns everyone she meets into a better person, has crossed the ocean aboard the SS Miramax. Did French audiences collectively swallow a feel-good pill without reading the label? Our Parisian correspondent takes time for a closer reading. by Frederic Bonnaud.
Festivals: Vancouver, Toronto, Venice & New York. Phillip Lopate on the NYFF and Nicole Armour on Views from the Avant-Garde.
Zero De Conduite: This year's winner of the annual Grand Marnier film essay contest takes a fresh look at legendary French filmmaker Jean Vigo's 1933 classic. by Mariana Johnson.
The Royal Tenenbaums: With the help of Gene Hackman, Gwyneth Paltrow, Ben Stiller, and Anjelica Huston, not to mention his usual partner in crime Owen Wilson, Wes Anderson has fashioned an epic comedy of loss in a poetically reconstructed Manhattan, a film that's both outrageously funny and deeply moving. We get the scoop, plus an interview. by Kent Jones and Gavin Smith.
Film studies vs. new media: Film scholars, always sweating over their academic credentials, face a new threat: incorporation into an ever-expanding, amorphous blob called Media Studies. What's a cinephile to do? by Alissa Quart.
Pauline Kael: For someone who was so small, Pauline Kael cast a giant shadow over the national cinematic landscape, and the one thing her followers and her detractors might agree on is her extraordinary talent. Two writers, both personal friends, confront the loss of this prolific, mercurial, greatly missed figure. by Paul Schrader and Howard Hampton.
Sound &Vision: Jean-Luc Godard's In Praise of Love & Miguel Calderon, the bad-boy artist whose work features in The Royal Tenenbaums.
