Unseren Geburtstagsfilm für Meister Polanski, der heute 90 wird, hoch soll er leben, jawohl, konnten wir immerhin rechtzeitig unterbringen, die erfrischend nicht personalintensive Venus im Pelz, einem bewundernswertem, erfindungreichen, vor Intelligenz prickelndem Film (Le Monde), das ist doch schön.

Has there ever been a more perfect pairing of medium and story than Julian Schnabel‘s The Diving Bell and the Butterfly? Cinema, an optical art form whose audience views scenes that they are powerless to change, is here used to emulate the first-person perspective of the true-life Jean-Dominique Bauby (Mathieu Almaric), a man who, after suffering a stroke, was diagnosed with locked-in syndrome. This extremely rare disorder causes head-to-toe paralysis, leaving only sight, hearing, and thought unaffected. In other words, Bauby was condemned to viewing his life as a movie, flashing before his eyes in vibrant, fleeting moments he couldn’t touch.

Our retrospective on the best films of 2007 continues with The Diving Bell and the Butterfly, a profoundly cinematic exercise in empathy.

Wir sind seit der anläßlich Casino Royale hier aufgeworfenen Frage, ob unsere Neubewertung der Daniel-Craig-Bonds, nun da wir nostalgisch auf ihn als ehemaligen Bond-Darsteller zurückblicken, wohl mit Quantum of Solace auch funktioniert, vergleichsweise lange in uns gegangen. Wenn wir in diesem Tempo weitermachen, sind wir Ende 2027 fertig; Die nächsten kosten allerdings wahrscheinlich weniger Überwindung. Quantum of Solace, wenn man das schlimmste annimmt, vermag dann sogar fast positiv zu überraschen. Es ist halt irgendwie zappelig und unfokussiert. Aber, da muß ich mich korrigieren, allemal besser als Diamonds are Forever.
