Sunday August 21st start 5.30pm
Exploring Photography, ‘The Image’ UK 1978, colour, 25minutes, 16mm
British Council film, several photographers talk about their work.
Blow Up UK 1966, colour, 111 minutes, 16mm
Director Michelangelo Antonioni
Cast David Hemmings, Sarah Miles and Vanessa Redgrave
In swinging London a trendy photographer enlarges a photograph that may or may not prove that a murder has taken place. Questioning the maxim that the ‘camera never lies’, a film that exhibits wonderful camerawork combined with a strangely gripping story.
Saturday August 27th start 5.30pm
Ansel Adams: Photographer USA 1968, colour, 20 minutes.
A short film that tells the life work and view of the famous American photographer.
Rear Window USA 1954, colour, 112 minutes, 16mm.
Director Alfred Hitchcock.
Cast James Stewart, Grace Kelly, Thelma Ritter and Raymond Burr.
To Hitchcock, this was the visual construction of a mental process and most revealing of the man himself. A freelance photographer laid up in bed during a hot summer draws the audience into the process of solving of a murder. Rarely does his camera stray from his side closely aligning with point of view. What it intimately reveals is the dirty linen, broken dreams and cheap death of life in a New York tenement block. Read Window is always refreshing and thrilling to watch.
Sunday August 28th start 5.30pm
Wynn Bullock: Photographer Australia 1978, colour, 24 minutes, 16mm.
A visual portrait of the photographer using footage gathered during the last 6 months of his life.
Proof Australia 1996, colour, 86 minutes, DVD.
Director Jocelyn Moorhouse.
Cast Hugo Weaving, Russell Crowe and Genevieve Picot.
The story of a blind photographer who tests the honesty of people surrounding him, this film has some very powerful and original scenes that use the camera to distil the complexity of life. As Andy, the photographer, says, ‘everyone lies, but not all the time’.
Saturday September 3rd start 5.30pm
Imogen Cunningham: Photographer Australia, colour, 20 minutes, 16mm.
A sensitive portrait of Imogen Cunningham, the pioneering portrait photographer, who died in 1976.
Raise the Red Lantern China 1991 colour, 124 minutes, DVD.
Director Zhang Yimou.
Set in China during the 1920s, the enclosed world of the manor house seems timeless, but intrigue, jealousy and strategy are at play. This is a film composed with the utmost precision using symmetrical compositions in tableaux like sequences - a film that every photographer should see.
