Until December, films such as “Killers of the Flower Moon”, the Cannes winner “Anatomy of a Fall”, Ridley Scott’s film “Napoleon”, the drama “One For the Road”, a documentary about Vermeer and two films by Wim Wenders are attracting people to the cinema .

von Patricia Batlle

The 77-year-old director Wim Wenders is bringing two films to the cinema in autumn: the masterful documentary in 3D about the artist Anselm Kiefer (“Anselm”) and a quiet everyday study of a happy person in Tokyo, “Perfect Days”. Its leading actor Koji Yakusho received the Palme d’Or for best actor at the film festival. The latter is even Japan’s Oscar hope in the “best international film” category and opens shortly before Christmas. Both also screened at the recently concluded Hamburg Film Festival in the presence of Wenders – and received great applause in the sold-out screenings.

Further information

They share a vintage and have known each other for decades: Wim Wenders and Anselm Kiefer. Wenders’ 3D documentary allows Kiefer’s work to be experienced sensually. more

Fans of legal thrillers can particularly look forward to the French Cannes winning film by Justine Triet. Sandra Hülser shines in “Anatomy of a Case” from November 2nd as a German writer who lives in the mountains with her French husband and her visually impaired son. After a few scenes, the husband dies – and then the writer Sandra (that’s also the name of the character in the film) is suspected of murder and has to defend herself in court.

Frederick Lau previously played a construction manager with Nora Tschirner in Markus Goller’s film “One for the Road” who has a big problem with alcohol. One day he loses his driver’s license and then makes a bet not to drink alcohol again. Not an easy task in this society.

Further information

The actress received the Hamburg Film Festival’s award at the German premiere of the legal thriller “Anatomy of a Case”. more

“Killers of the Flower Moon – Epos von Martin Scorsese mit Lilly Gladstone

Martin Scorsese is collaborating again with Leonardo DiCaprio and Robert De Niro – for the literary adaptation “Killers of the Flower Moon”, an almost four-hour film with an unforgettable leading actress, 36-year-old Lily Gladstone. She embodies one of the rich women of the wealthy Osage people who enters into marriage with Ernest Burkhart, the nephew of an influential uncle (De Niro). There are a number of mysterious murders among the population and especially many Osage women. The drama celebrated its world premiere in May at the Cannes Film Festival.

Ridley Scott and Martin Scorsese with new cinema blockbusters

Veteran director Ridley Scott will present his latest film about Napoleon with Joaquin Phoenix and Vanessa Kirby, Timothée Chalamet will play the young Willie Wonka in “Wonka”, a prequel to “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” (director: Paul King). David Fincher is releasing the neo-noir thriller “The Killer” with Michael Fassbender in selected cinemas on a major streaming service. Bradley Cooper will show his biopic of composer and conductor Leonard Bernstein: “Maestro” – with himself and Carey Mulligan in the leading roles – in selected cinemas.

Falling Leaves: A Tragically Funny and Timeless Film by Aki Kaurismäki

by Chief editor of world-today-news.com September 11, 2023

written by Chief editor of world-today-news.com

As of: September 11, 2023 6:00 a.m

Finnish director Aki Kaurismäki’s films have their own distinctive style: tragically funny, laconic and somehow as if they had fallen out of time. “Falling Leaves” is no exception.

by Bettina Peulecke

Aki Kaurismäki has been making films for over 40 years, and “The Other Side of Hope” in 2017 was supposed to be his last. Apparently the director seems bored with being a pensioner. And that’s a blessing for his audience, to whom he once again gives a wonderful gift with “Falling Leaves”.

Kaurismäki almost always stages socially real melodramas. He portrays the eternal losers: desperate people, the unemployed, terrible musicians and criminals. His house band “Leningrad Cowboys”, 13 men in black suits, with their characteristic “unicorn” hair quiffs and very long, very pointed shoes, to which he also dedicated a film of the same name, plays weird punk, and Finnish tango is part of it him too most of the time.

Further information

Blockbusters such as “Killers of the Flower Moon”, “Wonka” and films by Wim Wenders and Charly Hübner will be attracting people to the cinema until autumn. more

Two lonely souls

After a karaoke performance, two men sit in one of those run-down bars that have apparently been seen countless times at Kaurismäki and utter monosyllabic sentences. Hollapa is an alcoholic, which is why he has already lost various jobs. A lonely soul who – this also sounds familiar – meets another lonely soul in this dreary place – a woman named Ansa. However, a few hurdles have to be overcome before the two find each other.

Ansa works in a supermarket in Helsinki. She empties the shelves, sweeps the floor and occasionally puts an expired sandwich in her purse that would be thrown away anyway. She gets fired for that. At home, she listens to news about the Ukraine war on her kitchen transistor radio. Finally, Hollapa takes courage and asks Ansa if she will go to the cinema with him. You’re watching Jim Jarmusch’s zombie comedy “The Dead Don’t Die.”

A relationship without a future

After going to the cinema, Ansa even gives Hollapa her phone number, but he immediately loses it. And so a while passes before the two meet again. Then Ansa even goes one step further and invites Hollapa to her home:

“Nice apartment. However, the bed is quite narrow.”
“You’re pretty cheeky. It’s enough for one person. I inherited the apartment from my aunt and painted it myself.”
“So you’re an heiress.” Dialogue from the film

An heiress whose father and brother drank themselves to death and who therefore shows no tolerance for Hollapa’s alcoholism. The relationship seems to have no future and Ansa’s friend makes the basics clear:

“You’re not saying anything. Is it because of this guy?”
“First he thinks my apartment is a bar. And then he doesn’t even call to apologize. I just thought he would be different.”
“In what way?”
“Somehow different.”
“They were all cast from the same mold. Unfortunately it was cracked.”
“You said that well.” Dialogue from the film

A classic Kaurismäki dialogue: not a word too many and always with an accurate punch line. “Falling Leaves” is another unmistakable part of the Finnish auteur’s oeuvre, who walks between cult and everyday poetry like no other.

Falling leaves

Genre: Drama Year of production: 2023 Country of production: Finland Additional information: With Alma Pöysti, Jussi Vatanen, Janne Hyytiäinen and others Director: Aki Kaurismäki Length: 81 minutes Rating: from 12 years old Cinema release: from September 14, 2023

Independent Film ‘Last Evening’ Wins Big Festival Prizes: Lukas Nathrath’s Journey to Success

by Chief editor of world-today-news.com August 27, 2023

written by Chief editor of world-today-news.com

Status: 08/26/2023 11:00 p.m

His short film “Kippa”, Lukas Nathrath’s graduation film at the Hamburg Media School, has already received several awards. The young director shot his first feature film “Last Evening” in Hanover without any financial means. Now he’s winning big festival prizes.

by Bettina Peulecke

A hit, big Hollywood film said: The strongest weapon you can have is an idea. In any case, the director and author Lukas Nathrath had shown strength when he stuck to his idea of finally shooting again after the Corona break. Even if nobody wanted to support the project financially. That’s how “Last Evening” became an independent film, says Nathrath: “It’s an independent film that hardly exists in Germany in this form, and that’s why we didn’t really have any references,” says the young director. “But we knew we really wanted to shoot this August, when it was possible again, and then we asked various funding bodies. They said: No, no, no, this is all far too short notice, you can do it so soon before don’t ask that.”

Nobody wanted to invest

So he didn’t ask any more, he just did it. Together with his friend and one of the actors, the theater actor Sebastian Jakob Doppelbauer, Lukas Nathrath developed the story, which was then shot in seven days in an empty apartment in Hanover. “Last Evening” is about a couple who moves from Hanover to Berlin and whose farewell dinner gets out of hand with invited and uninvited guests. Film role models are “The Festival” by Thomas Vinterberg or “Hannah and her sisters” by Woody Allen.

An idea becomes a worldwide success

The film received the First Look Award at the Locarno Film Festival. Thus began the journey of a small film around the big world: to festivals in Rotterdam, Shanghai, Melbourne. At home he received the Max Ophüls Prize for best director. In addition to the merits, there were also monetary benefits: “We received prize money,” says Nathrath happily, “but that in turn is being invested in the theatrical release now. So far we haven’t earned anything from this film. Actually, everyone took part for free. We hope, of course that at some point something will come back through the theatrical release.”

Lukas Nathrath personally brings his audience to the cinema

The chances are not bad, the film has already been sold internationally in twelve countries. Lukas Nathrath and his team are currently on a cinema tour in Germany to promote the film and to attract people to the cinema. A few days ago they were able to arouse so much enthusiasm in a pedestrian zone with a song played live and the distribution of flyers that Lukas Nathrath took a fundamental boost of motivation with him.

Best prospects for the cinema landscape

“In fact, in Karlsruhe, when it was 30 degrees, we brought 20 people to the cinema for an early evening screening,” says the director proudly. “I really thought to myself, someone should tell me that cinema is dead. If it works like that and you can inspire people like that, that’s great. They stayed and were totally touched by the film, they agree approached us with thanks. Then I thought to myself: There is still hope for cinema. And for German cinema. And for arthouse cinema!”
