All nine episodes from the fourth series of the BBC comedy starring
Matt LeBlanc, Stephen Mangan and Tamsin Greig. Sean and Beverly
Lincoln (Mangan and Greig) are co-writers of American sitcom
'Pucks!' with the lead role played by Matt LeBlanc (as himself). In
this series, Sean and Beverly are summoned back to LA to film six
more episodes of 'Pucks!' as they also try to launch new show 'The
Opposite of Us'. Meanwhile, Matt experiences financial troubles
after being conned by his accountant and, as a result, considers
remarrying his ex-wife.
Intervening at the crossroads of philosophy, politics, and cinema,
this book argues that the career of Robert Guediguian is the result
of one of the most original and coherent projects in contemporary
French cinema: to make a committed, historically-conscious cinema,
in a local space, over a long period of time, but most especially
with friends. The account starts with in-depth consideration of
friendship and its relation to philosophy, politics, time, and
space. The book chronologically traces this project as it begins in
Guediguian's hometown, the Communist-leaning Marseille. It further
unfolds through the political transformations of the 1980s Left and
the local activism and utopias of the 1990s, and spreads into
Guediguian's varied explorations of genre and register. Close
analysis is accompanied with historical and social
contextualization, but also with a consistent return to the
underlying, radical and philosophically rich project. -- .
For well over a decade, Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne have produced
highly original and ethically charged films that immerse their
audiences in an intense and embodied viewing experience. Their work
has consistently attracted international recognition, including the
rare feat of two Palmes d'Or at Cannes. In this first book-length
study of the Belgian brothers, Joseph Mai delivers sophisticated
close analyses of their directorial style and explores the many
philosophical issues dealt with in their films (especially the
ethics of Emmanuel Levinas). Mai discusses the Dardennes' varied
and searching career from its inception in the late 1970s, starting
with the working-class political consciousness and lost utopias of
their documentary period; passing through their transition toward
fictional narrative, experimental techniques, and familial themes;
and finishing with a series of in-depth and philosophically
informed interpretations of the brothers' more recent work. In such
highly influential films such as La promesse, Rosetta, The Son, and
The Child, the brothers have recast filmmaking through what Mai
calls a "sensuous realism"--realism capable of touching the
audience with the most compelling problems and moral dilemmas of
contemporary society. This volume also features an interview in
which the Dardennes discuss their approach to film production and
the direction of actors.
