CHRONlCLE OF ANNA MAGDELENA BACH, which covers the years of Bach s Iife from his marriage to Anna Magdalena to his death in 1748, is at once a Iove story, a documentary, a socio-poIitical statement, and a fiIm of the music of Bach. SCILIlA! Based on EIio Vittorini s seminal 1938-1939 anti-fascist novel Conversations in Sicily, banned by the Fascists in 1942, SiciIia! is a four part fiIm which foIIows SiIvestro, an emigrant who is returning home after fifteen years spent in America. His conversations, with his mother, on the train, or on the price of oranges, as welI as the recurrent shot of arid Iandscape outside the train window, suppIy some of the most intense and memorable moments in contemporary cinema. UN VlSlTE AU LOUVRE. As the camera shows us some of the masterpieces held in the Louvre, JuIie Kotaï speaks the comments made about the paintings by Cézanne which were put into writing by the poet Joachim Gasquet. |
