I don’t know about you, but when I discuss politics or economics—or any other topic of interest, for that matter—I try to be as upfront and honest as I can. This doesn’t seem to be the case with the environmental scaremongers who seem to feel that the sheeple either can’t or won’t believe the scaremongers’ [...]

Jean Renoir's 1939 masterpiece follows the amorous exploits of a group of aristocrats invited to a hunting party at a French château. Their hectic intrigues find an uncanny echo in the affairs of their servants, upstairs and downstairs comically crossing paths on the way to a tragic conclusion...

By Dan Callahan "I'm not an apparition," insists Delphine Seyrig in Truffaut's Stolen Kisses (1968), "I'm a woman." While we would like to give her the benefit of the doubt, there can be no denying that Seyrig is the most ghostly of actresses, haunting her own movies with a druggy, dazed quality over which she placed a severe intellectual patina. Something as simple as a different...

This list, I must make clear, is a personal selection from what I've encountered and what I've liked the most. Other directors I will be looking into this year are Ingmar Bergman, Tarkovsky, Jean Renoir, Sam Fuller, Eisenstein,...

"I'm playing the part of a little old lady," says Agnés Varda, walking backwards against the sunset on one of the many beaches to feature in her latest, autobiographical film, Les Plages D'Agnés. I wonder what part she is playing for me today as she bumbles about the offices of her U.K. distributers, Artificial Eye, poking into different rooms, smiling amiably. "I'm not...
