See this film: 35 Shots of Rum @ the HFA
Two of the most brilliant
women in film teamed up to make 35 Shots of Rum (2008) a
bittersweet, meditative, and visually sublime study of the changing
relationship between an aging father and his adult daughter as the former
retires and latter gets the itch to move on. Director Claire Denis captures the
mood and rhythms of her mentor, Yasujiro Ozu, and Agnès Godard's cinematography
sets the story intimately in the world of working class, multi-cultural
Parisians. It's part of the Harvard Film Archive retrospective "Agnès Godard's
Inexhaustible Landscapes," and Godard herself will attend the screening. The
Archive is in the Carpenter Center, 24 Quincy St, Cambridge | 7 pm | $12 |
