He bet his house on this film

Director Ari Folman is wearing your basic directorial black, his well-open collar and small necklace a sure sign of Mediterranean roots. Over tea in Tokyo, the director — who does indeed look very much like his animated younger self in "Waltz with Bashir" — discussed the making of the award-winning film, the reaction to it, and his own experience of war. Do you think the after-effects...

Director: Award Winning Israeli films are "mediocre or worse"

In a crushing interview with Haaretz, noted Israeli Director Dover Kosashvili trashes this past year's euphoria in the Israeli movie industry, calling films that won awards "mediocre or worse." "They're celebrating like this is genuine success," but "it's a load of rubbish." He attacked the unprecedented success abroad of movies such as: Ari Folman's "Waltz with Bashir"...

WALTZ WITH BASHIR Review

[Our thanks to regular reader Agent Wax for sending in the following review from the Singapore Animation Nation Festival.] In many ways, this is the hardest review I've ever sat down and committed myself to writing. I regret watching Ari Folman's Waltz with Bashir . No, it's not because it was a waste of time. It wasn't because it was bad filmmaking. On the contrary, it is filmmaking at its finest....

September Reading List

I am really not sure what is going on with my reading/blogging this month. In September I read just five books and wrote only ONE post. This must be a record low for me and I honestly feel guilty that Book Aid International will only get £5 from me this time around. I have however just had a slightly naughty splurge at Amazon so I now have a toppling stack of books waiting to be read and hopefully...

215. Waltz with Bashir – from Lebanon to Gaza

Tomorrow, President Obama will meet Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and the Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas, bringing the Arab-Israeli Peace Process stuttering back into life. Let’s wish success to them all as they begin that great endeavour. Meanwhile, the UN Report on the War in Gaza was finally published last week, reminding me of this brief [...]

Lebanon Fortified

Sony Pictures Classics has picked up Samuel Maoz's Lebanon, a Hurt Locker-ish view of war from inside an Israeli tank during the 1982 invasion of Lebanon. The film will play at the forthcoming NY Film Festival and screen for press two days hence -- can't wait. The idea would be to position Lebanon as a contender for the 2009 Best Foreign Language Feature Oscar, assuming that Israel submits it as an...

[Animation Nation 2009 Prelude] Waltz With Bashir (Vals Im Bashir)

Whirlwind The trouble with memory, is more often than not, over an extended period of time, it tends to be faulty. We recall certain key scenes suspended momentarily in time, but with nary a clue how they move forward or backward, akin to knowing presence of the dots, but lacking the details to connect them up. Traumatic experiences may cause chunks to be buried deep and repressed into the subconscious,...

Samuel Maoz: Victory Out of Desperate Times

In September, a former IDF soldier took the top prize at the prestigious Venice Film Festival for a harrowing drama based on his traumatic experiences during the 1982 Lebanon war. Samuel Maoz won the Golden Lion just over a year after fellow Israeli Ari Folman's elegant animated account of his attempt to understand his role in the war, Waltz with Bashir, surprisingly failed to win anything at

Israeli film ‘Lebanon’ takes top prize in Venice

It’s ironic that just as a group of well-known actors and filmmakers, among them Jane Fonda and Danny Glover, are calling to boycott this year’s Toronto International Film Festival because one program there will be devoted to films set in Tel Aviv to mark that city’s centennial, an Israeli film walked off with top honors [...]
