[schizografia]

Gli autori femminili, le registe, non devono la loro importanza a un femminismo militante. Conta innanzitutto la maniera con la quale hanno innovato in questo cinema dei corpi, come se le donne dovessero conquistare l’origine dei propri atteggiamenti e la temporalità che corrisponde loro come gestus individuale o comune (Cléo dalle 5 alle 7; L’une chante l’autre pas di Agnès Varda, Mon cœur est rouge di Michèle Rosier). Con Mur murs e Documenteur, Varda costruisce un dittico la cui seconda parte presenta gli atteggiamenti e i gesti quotidiani di una donna che si è smarrita a Los Angeles, mentre la prima parte mostrava, agli occhi di un’altra donna a passeggio nella stessa città, il gestus storico e politico di una comunità minoritaria, affreschi murali dei chicani dalle forme e dai colori esasperati.

Gilles Deleuze, L’immagine-tempo

movies from the year my mom was born (1969)

@midnightcowboy1969 :) and "kes"

biographic film

"the beaches of agnes"! which is a straightforward bio documentary, but she also did movies that had a lot of personal details and meaning in them. i saw "documenteur" in a theater screening recently and it's almost like a diary entry!

budget less than $1mil

almost all cassavetes movies (a woman under the influence, minnie and moskowitz, husbands, faces, shadows, love streams) and agnes varda movies qualify for this, and i would recommend them all, but i'd also recommend "a taste of honey" and "the loneliness of the long distance runner" ... i'm actually quite fond of most low budget drama films from the 60s-70s. like whenever i catch a random one i usually like it. i'm into quiet forceful realism...
