Seeing is bereaving - film article

Lobo Pasolini dissects Andrea Arnold's Cow, and he finds a tragic life robbed of freedom, motherhood and dignity; there is nothing "humane"

My article on the superb observational documentary Cow, by Andrea Arnold.

Frederick Wisemanのドキュメンタリー『CITY HALL（邦題：ボストン市庁舎）』公共の中核である市役所と市政をもとに上映時間約5時間を思わせない淡々さ。市民や職員など、いろんな立場の人から「gap（邦訳でもギャップ）」という言葉がよく出て、「gap」の表現が多様で印象的だった。

駐車違反の審理室でのやりとり、大麻の店についての市民集会、教育委員会、交通センターのプロ仕事、お問合せセンター（最後の音声のみのシーンがなお良い）、言葉発さずとも読めてしまいそうな人の顔模様、風景や街の音の表情が面白かった。

出演者でもあるマーティン・ウォルシュ市長は、任期中にバイデン政権で労働長官に任命され、現市長は同市史上初の女性／有色人種のミッシェル・ウー市長。映画を観てからだとなお感慨深いものがある。

#Venezia79: con #Uncouple (A couple) il regista #FrederickWiseman da voce ai diari e ai carteggi che Leo e Sofia Tolstoj si scrivevano anche se vivevano nella stessa casa. Un racconto evocativo sulle gioie e i dolori della loro vita insieme, tra conflitti e riconciliazioni. "Un couple è stato girato in ventitré giorni, nel maggio del 2021, nel giardino La Boulaye, sull’isola di Belle Île. La troupe consisteva di sei persone e un’attrice. Le scene sono state girate sulle scogliere, sulle spiagge e nel giardino in piena fioritura primaverile. Gli animali, gli insetti, i fiori, gli alberi e i suoni del giardino sono anch’essi protagonisti del film, che altrimenti è un monologo." #VeniceFilmFestival #BiennaleCinema2022 #Concorso #SalaGrande #PalaBiennale #SalaDarsena #SalaPerla https://www.instagram.com/p/CiAZW0Esefy/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The movie includes footage from these bizarre performances by the blank-faced or bewildered inmates (just one of many ways the institution thrust them into awkward or demeaning situations). Frederick Wiseman, a lawyer, spent nearly a month filming at Bridgewater, where he often brought his law students from Boston University to observe a complex aspect of the justice system. Although Wiseman secured all the necessary permissions while shooting, the state of Massachusetts ultimately went to court to block the film’s release, citing patient privacy. Just as likely, Wiseman argued at the time, was that the state hoped to prevent outcry over inhumane treatment by the facility’s guards, social workers and psychiatrists. In 1968, a judge ordered all copies of the film destroyed. Wiseman appealed that decision to the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court and, as a result, only medical, legal and social worker professionals or their students could legally view the film for more than two decades. “Titicut Follies” became the first film banned in the United States for reasons other than obscenity or national security. It was finally released publicly after yet another court decision in 1991. Despite being banned for 22 years, the film inspired reforms in Massachusetts and beyond. It helped officials recognize that people with mental illnesses should never be warehoused."
