“Unless we take action on climate change, future generations will be roasted, toasted, fried and grilled.” Christine Lagarde

In 2022 we had a former Leader of the Tory Party, talking down the consequences of climate change and how we should respond to it.

“Net Zero has become a ‘new religion,’ says Ian Duncan Smith.”  (Independent: o9/03/22)

In the same year we had this statement from the World Health Organisation:

“Climate change is already killing us, but strong action now can prevent more deaths.”  (WHO: 07/11/22)

This year, with half the world, including Europe, in the grips of massive temperature increases, wild fires, possible water shortage and crop failures, we had this statement from the UN.

‘Hottest July ever signals ‘era of global boiling has arrived’ says UN chief.. “Climate change is here. It is terrifying. And it is just the beginning,” said the UN chief, warning that the consequences are as clear as they are tragic: “children swept away by monsoon rains, families running from the flames (and) workers collapsing in scorching heat.”’ (UN.org: 27/07/23)

The UK government response has been all too predictable. Sunak has stated he is issuing “hundreds", yes hundreds, of new licenses for the extraction of oil and gas from around our shores. He is planning on curbing clean air measures in our cities, and has signalled he will abandon green policies that come at a cost to consumers. “Get rid of all green crap” seems to be the new Tory mantra. Votes, it seems, are of far greater importance than lives. I’m not sure how many people would rather save a few hundred pounds than see their children’s very existence threatened but there will undoubtedly be some. Lets hope they don’t live to regret it for all our sakes.

ALL YOU CAN EAT BOUDDHA d’Ian Lagarde : Poulpe Fiction

Une proposition assez radicale, surréaliste, quasi expérimentale. Un lieu d’abord, un tout-inclus dans les Caraïbes - mais présenté par le scénariste et réalisateur Ian Lagarde (qui signe son premier long métrage) comme un endroit étrange, voire lugubre. Relativement peu de dialogues, mais des ambiances sonores riches créées par Jean-Sébastien Beaudoin-Gagnon, Hans Laitres et l’oscarisé Sylvain Bellemare. 

La présence imposante de Ludovic Berthillot dans le rôle du gros Mike, dont l’appétit n’a d’égal que ses mystérieux pouvoirs. Différents employés du complexe hôtelier joués par Sylvio Arriola, Yaité Ruiz, David La Haye. Surtout, des images remarquablement composées par Lagarde et son directeur photo John Londono et adroitement agencées par le monteur Mathieu Grondin, qui utilise notamment des surimpressions pour créer des effets inusités.

Un film qui récompense la patience du spectateur par des moments fort mémorables, comme ces incroyable séquences avec le poulpe. Et que dire du troisième acte, avec la détérioration progressive des décors (du superbe travail de la directrice artistique Joëlle Peloquin), la tempête qui gronde, l’annonce d’un “changement d’administration”, le climat de fin du monde... Cette finale au son de la musique de Colin Stetson!

2018 est encore jeune, mais All You Can Eat Bouddha s’inscrit déjà comme une des oeuvres québécoises qui devraient marquer l’année. 

All You Can Eat Bouddha prendra l’affiche ce vendredi 16 février.

All You Can Eat Buddha, A Movie Review

There's more to All You Can Eat Buddha than its topical delight and watching a big man eat. It's a #spiritual journey #moviereview. Hope @vicfilmfestival offers additional helpings @victheatreyyj sooner than later

Spoiler Alert

The 2018 Victoria Film Festival is in full swing and every year, there’s at least one foodie themed piece of cinema for me to look at. This year’s offering is a very curiously named, All You Can Eat, Buddha. Writer / Director Ian Lagarde makes his feature-length debut with this work. According to actor Silvio Arriolawho plays Valentino, the manager of the Cuban resort El Palacio —…

Le RN arrive en tête avec 24% des voix, devant les listes LREM (22,5%), EELV (12,5%) et LR (8,5%), selon les estimations Harris Interactive-Epoka pour RTL et TF1-LCI. Suivent le PS (6,5%) et LFI (6,5%). Ces six partis envoient des élus au Parlement européen.

Un Rassemblement national (RN) grand vainqueur et des Républicains (LR) qui s’effondrent, sur fond de participation (50,4%) record. Comme en 2014, les électeurs ont placé le parti de Marine Le Pen en tête des élections européennes 2019, avec 24% des voix, selon les dernières estimations Harris Interactive-Epoka pour RTL et TF1-LCI. La liste de Jordan Bardella devrait donc envoyer le plus d’eurodéputés au Parlement européen (22 à 26, sur les 79 dévolus à la France).

» EN DIRECT - Suivez les dernières informations sur les élections européennes 2019

Derrière, avec 22,5% des suffrages et 20 à 24 élus, la tête de liste La République en marche (LREM), Nathalie Loiseau, semble échouer dans son objectif de «battre» le RN. À gauche, Yannick Jadot et sa liste Europe Écologie-Les Verts (EELV) apparaissent comme la première force (12,5%, 11 à 14 élus). Une percée (+3 points par rapport à 2014) qui permettrait au parti écologiste de devancer Les Républicains (LR, ex-UMP). La liste de droite, menée par François-Xavier Bellamy, s’effondrerait à 8,5% et recueillerait 7 à 10 élus. Il s’agirait du pire résultat de la droite (RPR ou UMP) depuis les premières élections européennes au suffrage universel, en 1979.

LFI et le PS à égalité

Suivent, à égalité, la liste Parti socialiste (PS)-Place Publique-Nouvelle Donne, emmenée par Raphaël Glucksmann, donnée à 6,5% des voix (5 à 8 élus), et la France Insoumise (LFI) de Manon Aubry (6,5%, 5 à 8 élus). Un soulagement pour le PS, qui parvient à dépasser la barre fatidique des 5%, mais qui divise par trois son score de 2014 (16,88% des voix cumulées avec Nouvelle Donne). Un échec pour l’état-major de la France Insoumise, auquel les récents sondages laissaient espérer 9 à 10% des suffrages. Ces six listes (RN, LREM, EELV, LR, PS, LFI) envoient donc des élus au Parlement européen.

En queue de peloton, seules deux listes atteindraient la barre des 3%, qui ne suffit pas à faire élire des eurodéputés mais permet le remboursement des frais de campagne: Debout la France (DLF) de Nicolas Dupont-Aignan (3,5%) et Génération.s de Benoît Hamon (3%).

Ils devanceraient le Parti communiste (PCF) de Ian Brossat (2,5%), l’Union des démocrates et des indépendants (UDI) de Jean-Christophe Lagarde (2,5%), Urgence Écologie de Dominique Bourg (2%), l’Union populaire républicaine de François Asselineau (1%), Lutte Ouvrière de Nathalie Arthaud (0,5%), Les Patriotes de Florian Philippot (0,5%), l’Alliance Jaune de Francis Lalanne (0,5%).

Les 21 autres listes candidates à ce scrutin cumuleraient 3,5% des suffrages exprimés. Les bulletins blancs et nuls se chiffreraient quant à eux à 2,3%, pour une abstention totale autour de 49,6% des inscrits.

Station Vu : À TOUS CEUX QUI NE ME LISENT PAS de Yan Giroux

On pouvait s’interroger sur la pertinence de tenter de transposer la poésie écrite au grand écran, mais ce portrait d’Yves Boisvert parvient admirablement à être plus cinématographique que littéraire. Yan Giroux, qui signe son premier long métrage, rend pratiquement chaque plan étonnant, inspirant, stimulant via ses compositions visuelles élaborées avec le directeur photo Ian Lagarde, incluant plusieurs amples mouvements d’appareil. Ce film sur les aléas de la vocation d’artiste dispose par ailleurs de l’arme de moins en moins secrète qu’est Martin Dubreuil, un de nos meilleurs acteurs, qui brille en artiste à la dérive, poussé par le vent, comme un chien errant, pauvre, mais bon vivant malgré tout. 

À tous ceux qui ne me lisent pas est présenté chez Station Vu ce vendredi soir à 19 h 30 en présence de Yan Giroux et du co-scénariste Guillaume Corbeil. Le film sera présenté à nouveau le jeudi 17 janvier à 15 h. stationvu.com

Cautela persiste e bolsas de NY operam em queda em meio a balanços de tecnologia

Resultados das gigantes do setor são recebidos de forma distinta, enquanto investidores mantêm no radar avanço dos casos de covid e eleição presidencial Os índices acionários em Nova York iniciaram esta sexta-feira em queda, refletindo a cautela persistente que predominou nos mercados ao longo da semana. Na sessão de hoje, os investidores avaliam os resultados corporativos das empresas de tecnologia, divulgados após o fechamento do pregão de ontem, mas mantêm no radar o aumento acelerado dos casos de covid-19 nos Estados Unidos e a proximidade da eleição presidencial americana. Por volta de 11h20, na Bolsa de Valores de Nova York (Nyse), o Dow Jones operava em queda de 0,72%, aos 26.467,95 pontos, enquanto o S&P 500 recuava 1,03%, aos 3.276,14 pontos. O índice eletrônico Nasdaq perdia 1,84%, aos 10.979,55 pontos. Apple, Amazon, Alphabet, Facebook e Twitter reportaram seus resultados corporativos do terceiro trimestre após o fechamento do pregão de ontem. Todas elas superaram as estimativas de lucros, mas a reação dos investidores a seus balanços foi distinta. ‘Big Techs’ aumentam receita com mudança de comportamento na pandemia Mark Lennihan/AP A Apple reportou uma receita recorde de US$ 64,7 bilhões, mas a ação da companhia caía cerca de 4% nos primeiros negócios do dia. Investidores receberam mal a queda na venda de iPhones e o fato de a companhia não ter divulgado projeções, em meio às incertezas provocadas pela pandemia. A Amazon reportou que os lucros triplicaram no terceiro trimestre, para US$ 6,3 bilhões, mas mesmo assim a ação da companhia caía mais de 3%, com os agentes financeiros demonstrando frustração com as projeções de receita para o quarto trimestre. O Facebook reportou uma alta de 29% nos lucros do terceiro trimestre, mas a ação recuava perto de 4%. Os papéis do Twitter são especialmente castigados, recuando cerca de 17%, mesmo depois de a companhia ter reportado lucros acima do esperado. Os investidores se concentram no alerta da empresa de que o comportamento dos anúncios publicitários pode ser imprevisível antes da eleição. Segundo o chefe de pesquisa da London Capital Group, Jasper Lawler, os grandes nomes da tecnologia vinham impulsionado todos os ganhos do mercado de ações nos últimos meses, com a ideia de que seus desempenhos também eram imunes - ou mesmo beneficiados - pela pandemia. "Os lucros superaram as expectativas, mas, ao carregar todo o peso do mercado, as ações de tecnologia estavam precificadas à perfeição", afirmou. A dinâmica segue a lógica da atual temporada de balanços corporativos, em que as empresas que superam as estimativas de lucros não são recompensadas com ganhos no preço das ações, já que a atenção dos investidores está voltada às eleições e à pandemia de covid-19. Na contramão, as ações da Alphabet disparam 5% após a companhia ter reportado uma alta de 59% nos lucros do terceiro trimestre, a US$ 11,25 bilhões. A pandemia continua avançando nos Estados Unidos. O país está prestes a registrar 100 mil novos casos hoje, pela primeira vez, segundo o economista-chefe da Pantheon Macroeconomics, Ian Shepherdson. "Infelizmente, isso não será um evento único; esperamos mais 100 mil amanhã também. No fim da próxima semana, os novos casos diários provavelmente estarão acima dos 100 mil todos os dias", afirmou. Nesta semana, o avanço rápido da pandemia de covid-19 na Europa culminou na adoção de novas medidas de restrição à atividade econômica por autoridades do continente. O fato provocou pânico nas bolsas globais na quarta-feira, impulsionando a volatilidade a níveis não vistos em meses. Há o temor de que o descontrole da crise sanitária ameace a recuperação rápida que vinha ocorrendo na economia global durante o terceiro trimestre. Hoje, na Europa, o dado do Produto Interno Bruto (PIB) indicou um crescimento de 12,7% no terceiro trimestre, superando a expectativa de consenso, de alta de 9,4%. A presidente do Banco Central Europeu (BCE), Christine Lagarde, disse ontem, porém, que espera uma desaceleração significativa no quarto trimestre, mesmo se houvesse uma surpresa positiva nos dados de hoje. Cautela persiste e bolsas de NY operam em queda em meio a balanços de tecnologia

Evan Rachel Wood Wins Best Performance at Whistler Film Festival

A Worthy Companion, starring Westworld's Evan Rachel Wood, dominated prize-giving at the Whistler Film Festival on Sunday.

The lesbian-obsession thriller, which marks the feature-length debut of Montreal-based photographers Carlos and Jason Sanchez, sees Wood playing a troubled woman who forges a dangerously close bond with a teenage girl. A Worthy Companion earned the actress the best performance prize at the fest, and the movie came away with the best cinematography award and shared the top Borsos competition prize with Ian Lagarde's All You Can Eat Buddha. The pic bowed at the Toronto International Film Festival in September.

In other prize-giving in Whistler, Kyra Sedgwick's Story of a Girl earned the Special Jury EDA Award.
