Some excellent films I saw in Vienna
While showing The Dinner Table to an Austrian (among others) audience was a blast, even more exciting was seeing some great shorts from around the globe.
A few highlights:
IL CAPO by Yuri Ancarani
A mesmerizing, beautifully shot aesthetic/character study of the foreman of a marble quarry in Italy. If you loved to watch big construction equipment moving as a kid (or as an adult) this will be poetry.
ZUCHT UND ORDNUNG (Law and Order) by Jan Soldat
A touching, hilarious look at the romantic and sex life of an elderly, sadomasochistic couple from Berlin. Shot with just the right amount of respectful distance from its subjects. (NB: some explicit imagery in this one)
Ozu Interior #40 / Ozu Exterior #40
Good Morning - Yasujirô Ozu - 1959
Nobody shoots empty rooms better.
Another great short doc made in China, this one by our A.C./Gaffer and longtime collaborator Trevor Joyce.
