If you loved Lumière & Company, try A ciascuno il suo cinema
Un ponte tra un film che hai già visto e uno che quasi nessuno ha incrociato. Questo è ciò che condividono, e ciò che il secondo fa che il primo non fa.
Cosa condividono
Both films are directed by Abbas Kiarostami, Andrei Konchalovsky, Claude Lelouch, David Lynch, Raymond Depardon, Theo Angelopoulos, Wim Wenders, Youssef Chahine, Zhang Yimou, and they both carry the cerebral, playful mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Lumière & Company, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What A ciascuno il suo cinema is
A collection of shorts, then, each director offering what amounts to a cinematic shrug. Thirty-three filmmakers respond to the prompt of what cinema means to them. The result is a mixed bag, though at least it's reliably brief.
