          What a haunting movie this is... a riveting thriller made by director Joseph Losey, containing a delirious performance by Alain Delon. In my eyes, it's the best role of his career. And yet it is a film that was pushed away and largely deleted in cinema history. This is pretty shocking in terms of culture, especially since there is so much junk kept in the history books, while gems like this are forgotten.
          Right from the start, this flick is absolutely riveting. The story takes place during the German occupation of France in 1942, and centers on an art dealer called Robert Klein (Delon). Since Jews are being rounded up and sent to the death camps, it meant Jewish homes would be ransacked by the locals after Jews were deported (the same thing happened on a widespread scale here in Amsterdam). Since our main character Robert is an art dealer, it means he can get stolen art for bargain prices. And of course there are other Jews who haven't been dragged to the camps, but are being hunted down and need cash to escape, and desperate enough to sell everything they have. All in all, the Jewish persecution is great for Robert's business, until mysterious events begin to occur and Robert becomes aware there is another man going around Paris, using his name, but who is a Jew. The movie then unravels from this otherworldly premise...
          This existential thriller has a strong Kafka vibe, and director Joseph Losey certainly knew what it was like to be hunted. He had been accused of being a Communist during the 'red scare' of the 1950s in the United States, was forced to go underground, and eventually escaped to Europe where he made some dazzling works of art like The Servant, and this film. The cinematography is overcast in a poetic way, flowing with muted colors and deep shadows. It unfolds almost like a lucid dream, as we watch our main character's life fall apart, while at the same time exploring themes like persecution, mysterious doppelgängers, the dark side of collaboration, and war-profiteering. And let's be clear; this is not just a movie about something in the past, it is about our modern lives today also. The script is by Franco Solinas (Battle of Algiers). Besides Alain Delon, the film features Jeanne Moreau and Juliet Berto.
          One of the great aspects of this movie is how it fuses together delirium with historical facts... a surreal, psychological masterpiece. At the time it came out, it won the César Awards for Best Film and Best Director.

                    Tap dancer Marije Nie met tabla player Tarang Poddar in 2023 in a unique project called 'Book of Premonitions', where more than 200 students from the IVKO school in Amsterdam were invited to collectively create a 'libretto' based on their visions on the future. They made texts, but also scultures and drawings. Working from their materials, the artists of the collective then created a unique, one-off 'opera' that was performed at De Doelen, Korzo and Muziektheater. In this collaboration, Marije and Tarang found a resonance between taps and tablas, which led to this evening in which they will explore the connections between tabla and tap in an improvised dialogue, after which Tarang will present his concert Jelle x Tarang.

                    Jelle X Tarang have been developing rhythmically intricate instrumental music built around grooves, odd metres, and shifting rhythmic perspectives — technically demanding yet completely accessible to the untrained ear. Drawing from jazz, African musical influences, Indian classical music, and electronic aesthetics, the duo constructs acoustic music that constantly mutates, where repetition, silence, and sudden breaks shape the flow like an evolving machine. Using electric guitar, live processing, tabla, and percussion, they blur the line between acoustic and electronic sound while creating a highly distinctive and contemporary musical language.

                    Jelle Roozenburg layers melodic fragments, rich contemporary harmonies, and looping textures into compositions that blur the line between acoustic and electronic sound. Within these shifting
                    structures, Tarang Poddar — a seasoned artist whose stage presence holds the room with the same focused economy as his playing — navigates polyrhythms, metric modulations, and hybrid
                    percussion textures through a combined tabla and percussion setup; deeply rooted in Indian classical music, his varied influences bleed into one another in unexpected ways, while the tabla
                    itself is pushed toward unfamiliar sonic territory, creating a highly distinctive and contemporary aesthetic to the instrument.

                    Marije Nie is a Marije Nie is a tap dancer and theatre maker. She began her career as a musician with her feet—a tap-dancing percussionist—before expanding her practice as a theatrical performer, dramaturg, educator, researcher and facilitator.

                    Dieser Film, in dem eigentlich nur gesprochen wird, funktioniert nur über den Klang, Rhythmus, Akzent und das soziale Wissen, das über die Sprache in seine Figuren eingeschrieben ist. Sie ist kein Transportmittel für die Geschichte, sondern ihr eigentliches Material. Da ist die synchronisierte Fassung in der ARD-Mediathek nicht nur unbefriedigend, sondern konzeptuell eigentlich völlig verfehlt. Sie gibt zwar den Plot wieder, entzieht dem Werk aber all seine künstlerische Substanz. Nirgendwo ist die Abwesenheit der (englischsprachigen) Originalversion mehr zu beklagen als hier. (ARD, Wh.)

                    In 1964, Buster Keaton came to Canada to make his final silent film. It was The Railrodder, a 25 min comedic travelogue produced by the National Film Board.

                    NFB filmmaker Gerald Potterton had the idea of making a film about a man going across Canada in a motorized rail cart.

                    Keaton agreed to be in the film because he loved trains and wanted to experience riding the rails in Canada.

                    Production began in the late-summer of 1964, and the movie was filmed in chronological order from east to west. Keaton turned 69 during filming and did all of his own stunts.

                    Various towns across the country held celebrations and screenings of Keaton's films, and he was treated to dinners nearly every single day.

                    The film was released in October 1965. Audiences loved the film, which became a beloved classic. The NFB sold the TV and film rights to 43 international markets.

                    Keaton died on Feb. 1, 1966.

There are millions of children working, meaning child labour. All of these things are intertwined" - Seemab Gul discusses Ghost School eyeforfilm.co.uk/feature/2026-

                                      das bild ist eine schwarz-weiß-fotografie aus der vogelperspektive und zeigt eine geometrische komposition an einer küste.

oben sieht man das dunkle, leicht unruhige meer, das an eine betonmauer grenzt. die flache mauer verläuft diagonal nach rechts oben, wo sie an der rechten bildkante einen knick nach unten macht.
eine große, helle und leere fläche, die durch feine linien in rechtecke unterteilt ist, dominiert das bildzentrum.
ein mit unregelmäßigen steinen gepflasterter boden ist durch ein dunkles geländer von der hellen fläche getrennt und schließt das bild nach unten ab. diese ist durch ein geländer nach oben abgetrennt. die trennlinie verläuft ebenfalls in einer zickzacklinie.
in der linken unteren ecke stapelt eine person helle liegestühle.

                                          Still a bit low energy from this week's chemo session, but feeling bit better today, so I am going to take myself out for a couple of hours to one of my favourite places, the Filmhouse, to catch up on a film I really wanted to see but missed in cinemas the other year (Perfect Days, by Wim Wenders, whose work I have loved for many decades).
