Afterschool Review

Andy Warhol was convinced we'd get 15 minutes of fame, but in this modern world, we're doomed to five minutes in a YouTube clip. We live in a disposable shaky-cam society, where most of us spend our time with our...

Arguing "Afterschool."
The IFC Blog (Free subscription) | 12/10/2009
A brief note: Antonio Campos' "Afterschool" -- a movie I saw and hated at last year's New York Film Festival -- is in its last week at New York's Cinema Village. If you're in the area and haven't seen it yet, I'll be arguing against it following tonight's 6:45pm screening. Bilge Ebiri (of New York, not to mention director of "New Guy," and so much more) will be taking the pro side....

Indie Trailer Sunday: Antonio Campos' Intense Drama Afterschool
FirstShowing.net (Free subscription) | 11/10/2009
Today's indie trailer is for a film by New York filmmaker Antonio Campos. It's called Afterschool and premiered at Cannes in 2008. You may recognize Michael Stuhlbarg as the headmaster because he stars in the Coen Brothers' A Serious Man . The film is about an internet-addicted prep-school student who captures the drug overdose of two girls on video. That doesn't sound that intriguing, but this trailer...

Review: "Afterschool"
From the Front Row (Free subscription) | 09/10/2009
Living in a post High School Musical world, movies about high school (and teenagers in general) tend to have a very similar aesthetic and a specific set of expectations. In other words, most high school films are made especially for the high school crowd of the MTV generation, where fast editing stimulates short attention spans and current pop songs and power ballads replace anything resembling real...

Afterschool Director Antonio Campos on Absorbing Internet Criticism and the ‘Unbearable’ NYC Prep
Vulture (Free subscription) | 03/10/2009
There’s a reason why 26-year-old Antonio Campos’s debut feature, Afterschool , which opens at the Cinema Village today , has the remarkable stylistic assurance of a veteran filmmaker. Because New York native Campos is a veteran filmmaker — he’s been making films since the age of 13. Afterschool is a controversial and not-at-all standard look at how two grisly deaths affect...

Afterschool - 9/30/2009
filmcritic.com Movie Reviews (Free subscription) | 01/10/2009
Antonio Campos' debut feature Afterschool takes aim at some pretty obvious targets: Prep School, YouTube, and our voyeur culture in general. And although the TV After School Specials of yore never tackled those particular topics, one could see Campos' movie, as daring as it may be stylistically, as slyly rebooting that much-maligned institution for today's indie film world -- pushing the envelope with...

Film: Review:Afterschool
A.V. Club (Free subscription) | 01/10/2009
In Afterschool , a disquieting, remarkably controlled first feature by 25-year-old writer-director Antonio Campos, young people live their lives at a shallow focal distance—roughly the foot between their nose and the computer monitor in front of them. From here, Campos’ hero, a baby-faced boarding-school freshman played by Ezra Miller, consumes a steady diet of YouTube clips (from giggling...

Affected Disaffection: “Afterschool”
ReverseBlog (Free subscription) | 30/09/2009
Afterschool plays like a film student’s demo reel of the various ways to signify “alienation”—shallow depth of field, over-lit sterile interiors, ambient sounds of fluorescent light hums, expressionless actors, methodical tracking shots frequently overrunning or catching up to their human subjects. Even the best filmmakers should take care in how they choose to explore new implementations...
