Very cool example of an interactive film where the audience interacts with the character in the movie.

Un Prophète.

I just saw Un Prophète, the new film from Jacques Audiard. The first film I saw from this true author was Sur Mes Lèvres, which was very nice. Then I saw De Battre Mon Coeur S’Est Arrêté, which was beautiful. And then came Un Prophète, which is une vrai chef-d’oeuvre. After jacking the Grand Prix in Cannes, it’s predestined to win an Oscar.

Exit-exit-exit..

It seems we have yet another movie to look out for.. Exit Through The Giftshop. The trailer does not look THAT good but still I’m very curious about the actual movie. Banksy rocks. I love his work and he (?) made one of my all-time favorite books. Yep, this artist is most definitely…

This is the End

To close out 2009 in style Christian Annyas decided to update his Movie title stills collection with ‘The End’ of Warner Bros. A series dedicated to the ‘The End’ title screen, all taken from Warner Bros’ movies. Besides the evolution it’s also nice to see the typography.

Turbo polyp

Sometimes the characters appearing in the dutch/belgium television show Man bijt hond are making me think of Arjan Ederveen’s Borreltijd. Almost can’t believe this is real.

On the road.

This weekend’s edition of NRC featured an inspiring interview with Cervélo founder/owner Gérard Vroomen. By spending more money on research rather then on marketing, Cervélo quickly became a trusted manufacter of high-tech speedrace bikes. Check out the worthwhile and well done behind the scenes documentary about their professional cycling team’s first season.

Coney Island Dream

New York City is one of the most photogenic places there is. Its beach area; the neglected resort of Coney Island, looks scary, sad and beautiful at the same time. Joshua Brown and his 5D captured the atmosphere quite well.

Family Guy vs star wars

This is pretty funny: The makers of Family Guy made a parody of (the best) Star Wars, Episode V – The Empire Strikes Back. The trailer looks promising. I hope it is going to be as funny as this Family Guy episode.

The Mill

Another impressive reel from The Mill, i’m sure most of you are familiar with some of the work that’s shown. It’s impressive how much work they make and how well the lovely shots mix with top notch motion graphics and visual effects.

B etwe en

A shortfilm by Via Grafik’s Tim Bollinger with cinematographer Daniel Meinl and sound design by Michael Fakesch. The three combine for something that’s beautiful and eerie at the same time. If you like this you might like Antichrist aswell, although i must warn you; it’s quite heavy. So try this first, on Vimeo or below.

SPOTLIGHT

Last year, Fresh Paint made a nice compilation of old movie clips in an active filmstudio setting for TCM. This year they did it again with exactly the same concept and music. If an idea is good I think it’s worth to recycle. What do you think? (Thanks to Idents.tv).

Wes Anderson made a stop-motion movie of the book “Fantastic Mr. Fox” by Roald Dahl. I loved the book when I was a little rascal, and now I digg the style he has chosen to animate it. The movie will be first shown at the London Film Festival, and us dutchies have to wait untill December. In the mean time enjoy the trailer!
