WHO'S CAMUS ANYWAY?
Written and directed by Mitsuo Yanagimachi
Cast: Shuji Kashiwabara, Hideo Nakaizumi, Ai Maeda
Japan | 2005 | 115 min | Beta | Color | In Japanese with English subtitles
Yanagimachi's new film, after a 10-year break, is a brainy, playful Altmanesque portrait of the psyche of modern Japan. He follows a group of film students (many played by hot young Japanese TV stars) as they prepare to make a movie about a seemingly gratuitous murder. As it examines the students' bickering, betrayal, and sexual cruelty, the film offers a witty portrait of a younger generation so steeped in Western culture that its touchstones are film noir, Michel Houllebecq, and, of course, The Stranger . This brilliantly made film explodes with cinematic energy, from a sly opening sequence that riffs on The Player to a powerful finale that reveals depths as dark and mysterious as anything in Camus. - New York Film Festival 2005
The New York Times says the film "bristles with ferocious energy and wit." Read the review here.

THE BLOSSOMING OF MAXIMO OLIVEROS
Directed by Auraeus Solito
Philippines | 2005 | 105 mins | English, Tagaglo w/ES
The film centers on Maxi, an adolescent who is deeply devoted to his family of petty thieves. He cleans house for them, cooks for them, washes their underwear, mends their tattered jeans, and when necessary, covers their tracks. His world revolves around his father and his two brothers, who love and protect him in return. Until Maxi meets Victor, a handsome policeman, that he is drawn to. The two become fast friends — much to the disapproval of Maxi‚s family. The Philippines’ Official Entry to 2007 Academy Awards Best Foreign Film. |
