RIP Peter Bogdanovich

He was one of my heroes, form very early when I first read about him. His life was more than a movie, more than the films he directed. He was a part of the Hollywood Elite, more than an insider, a cinephile and most of all, a survivor of that jungle. Targets, The last Picture Show,What's Up Doc, Paper Moon, Nickelodeon, Saint Jack, They all Laughed, Noises Off, The Cat`s Meow, the documentaries about his heroes whom he met and befriended. John Ford, Howard Hawks, Orson Welles. He was part of Welles unifinished mythical The Other Side of the Wind (that you can seee now on Netflix). He was an occasional actor too, the psychiatrist in The Sopranos. Peter Bogdanovich died on January 6th 2022. He was 82.

“There are no “old” movies-only movies you have already seen and ones you haven't” -Peter Bogdanovich

Examen (2003)

 Filmul de debut al lui Titus Muntean,  Examen (iesit in 2003, filmat si intrerupt in 1999) e in sfirsit, remasterizat, pe netflix. L-am revazut si ma simt legat de el,  de acei ani, de premierea si de povestea dramatica din spatele filmului. Am scris cronica pentru Golan, ca recomandare, si ama vut feedbackuri, am stat de vorba cu Titus dupa ce nu ne-am mai vazut de citiva ani si mi-a repovestit amintirile sale legate de proiect , dar nu am apucat sa postez aici linkul, asa cum e fair, cronica ramine deocamdata exclusiv online pe Golan. Va recomand sa (re)vedeti filmul, care astazi a devenit si mai valoros,  sunt uimit de cita lume nu are habar de existenta sa :( Merita !

A ieșit un articol mare și complex cu motive pentru care mulțumește și dezamăgește filmul lui Villeneuve, la care au contribuit Dan Stăiculescu (scenarist & copywriter), Ioachim Ciobanu (actor & regizor), Cristian Lăzărescu (regizor & fizician), Bogdan Movileanu (arhivist Arhiva Națională de Film), Sega (scriitor) și Ionut Constantin aka Yokko (muzician).
