SUMMARY:SUNDAYS AT THE U WITH MOVIES: "THE GLEANERS AND I" (2000)
DESCRIPTION:BUY TICKETS HERE\nJoin us at 1 p.m. Sunday\, Sept. 8\, for a screening of Agnes Varda’s “The Gleaners and I” (2000)\, a self-reflexive documentary in which the French cinema icon explores the world of modern-day gleaners: those living on the margins who survive by foraging for what society throws away. The movie ranked 69th in the 2022 Sight and Sound poll of the 100 greatest movies ever made. \nTHE GLEANERS AND I | 2000) | WRITER-DIRECTOR: Agnes Varda | RUNNING TIME: 1H 22M | IN FRENCH WITH ENGLISH SUBTITLES | UNRATED No offensive material | PROJECTED in 2K DCP format \nEmbracing the intimacy and freedom of digital filmmaking\, Varda posits herself as a kind of gleaner of images and ideas\, one whose generous\, expansive vision makes room for ruminations on everything from aging to the birth of cinema to the beauty of heart-shaped potatoes. \nBy turns playful\, philosophical\, and subtly political\, “The Gleaners and I” is a warmly human reflection on the contradictions of our consumerist world from an artist who\, like her subjects\, finds unexpected richness where few think to look. \n\n  \n“In “The Gleaners and I\,” Varda has a new tool–a modern digital camera. We sense her delight. She can hold it in her hand and take it anywhere. She is liberated from cumbersome equipment. “To film with one hand my other hand\,” she says\, as she does so with delight. She shows how the new cameras make a personal essay possible for a filmmaker–how she can walk out into the world and without the risk of a huge budget simply start picking up images as a gleaner finds apples and potatoes. \n“My hair and my hands keep telling me that the end is near\,” she confides at one point\, speaking confidentially to us as the narrator. She told her friend Howie Movshovitz\, the critic from Boulder\, Colo.\, how she had to film and narrate some scenes while she was entirely alone because they were so personal. In 1993 she directed “Jacquot de Nantes\,” the story of her late husband\, and now this is her story of herself\, a woman whose life has consisted of moving through the world with the tools of her trade\, finding what is worth treasuring.” — Roger Ebert \nTickets are $5 and available at link above. Students use code UMSTUDENT at checkout for free admission (must show Cane card at the door).

SUMMARY:SUNDAYS AT THE U WITH MOVIES: "BLACK NARCISSUS" (1947)
DESCRIPTION:BUY TICKETS HERE\nJoin us at 1 p.m. Sunday\, Septermber 15\, for a screening of 1947’s “Black Narcissus.” This explosive work about the conflict between the spirit and the flesh is the epitome of the sensuous style of co-directors Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger. \nBLACK NARCISSUS | 1947 | DIRECTORS: Michael Powell\, Emeric Pressburger | WITH: Deborah Kerr\, Kathleen Byron\, Flora Robson | RUNNING TIME: 1H 41M | UNRATED no offensive material | PROJECTED IN 2K DCP \nA group of nuns—played by some of Britain’s finest actresses\, including Deborah Kerr\, Kathleen Byron\, and Flora Robson—struggle to establish a convent in the Himalayas\, while isolation\, extreme weather\, altitude\, and culture clashes all conspire to drive the well-intentioned missionaries mad. A darkly grand film that won Oscars for Alfred Junge’s art direction and Jack Cardiff’s cinematography\, Black Narcissus is one of the greatest achievements by two of cinema’s true visionaries. \n\n  \n“Black Narcissus is a film about people who try and fail to remake the world to their specifications\, and it was paradoxically made by people who control every square inch of the environment being represented—every sliver of light\, every quavering breeze—in order to render its effect on frozen consciousness as vividly and dramatically as possible. \n“The sisters in Black Narcissus are taken aback to find their buried memories and unfulfilled yearnings spontaneously conjured to life as they contemplate the apparently limitless horizon. “I think you can see too far\,” observes Sister Philippa (Flora Robson\, who gives the film’s most delicate and underrated performance)\, by way of explaining the sudden intrusion of past experiences into her heretofore perfect spiritual life. \n“in Black Narcissus\, the growing affection and understanding between David Farrar’s Mr. Dean and Deborah Kerr’s Sister Clodagh\, both fixed in their solitude\, remain unremarked and unfulfilled\, a matter of quick glances\, sympathetic exchanges\, and poignantly masked surges of feeling.” — Kent Jones \nTickets are $5 and available at link above. Students use UMSTUDENT for free admission (must show Cane card at the door).

SUMMARY:SUNDAYS AT THE U WITH MOVIES: "ONE FALSE MOVE" (1991)
DESCRIPTION:BUY TICKETS HERE\nJoin us at 1 p.m. Sunday\, September 22 for a screening of “One False Move” (1991)\, the suspenseful thriller about the collision course between a small-town sheriff and a group of dangerous killers. \nONE FALSE MOVIE | 1991 | DIRECTOR: Carl Franklin | WITH: Bill Paxton\, Billy Bob Thornton\, Cynda Williams\, Michael Beach | RUNNING TIME: 1H 45M | RATED R for strong violence\, language and drug content | 4K DIGITAL PROJECTION \nA small-town police chief (Bill Paxton) concealing an explosive secret. A pair of ruthless drug dealers (cowriter Billy Bob Thornton and Michael Beach) who leave a bloody trail in their wake as they make their way from Los Angeles to Arkansas. And an enigmatic woman (Cynda Williams) caught in the middle. \nThe way these desperate lives converge becomes a masterclass in slow-burn tension thanks to the nuanced direction of Carl Franklin\, whose haunting film travels a crooked road across America’s most fraught divisions—urban and rural\, Black and white—while imbuing noir conventions with a wrenching emotional depth. \n\n  \n  \n“One False Move is many things. A stunning nineties neonoir. A tragedy. A movie that says more about race and class without being didactic than many others that try hard to say something. A road picture. A lovers-on-the-run tale. A flawless encapsulation of the desperate energy and desperate deeds that fuel real crime. It feels timeless. It’s a structural marvel. A study in tension and pacing. \n“Having moved from Brooklyn to Mississippi over a decade ago\, I feel like I understand the film in ways now that I couldn’t have previously. It’s a complex portrait of the South. The awful weight of history and tradition. Kindness often masking complicity. Buried secrets. The atmosphere misted over with sins of the past. Attempts to smile through pain and yearning. Cycles of poverty and grief and near escape. Dark humor. \n“More than thirty years later\, watching One False Move brings me back to being the kid I was when I first saw it: trying to understand the world\, seeking art that tells the truth\, and finding something this urgent and poetic and haunting.” — William Boyle \nTickets are $5 and available at link above.
