‘Come Back to the 5 and Dime, Jimmy Dean, Jimmy Dean’ Kicked Off Robert Altman’s Most Underrated Decade

My favorite ever movie about a President is Secret Honor, a one-man film of Philip Baker Hall who has never been better as Richard Nixon drunkenly monologuing into a tape recorder about his life and career, giving a picture of a complex if ultimately evil person. Directed by the great Robert Altman. Re-watching now, in a #Criterion DVD.

Roman Polański, Mia Farrow – „Rosemaries Baby“ (1968)
In einem Jahr, das auch filmhistorisch zwischen Aufbruch und Abgrund lag, hat dieser Film Roman Polański 1968 endgültig zu einer Schlüsselfigur des internationalen Kinos gemacht. Zuvor hatte der in Paris geborene und in Polen aufgewachsene Regisseur schon mit „Das Messer im Wasser“ (1962) und „Ekel“ (1965) gezeigt, dass er das Spiel mit psychologischem Druck und räumlicher Enge meisterhaft beherrscht. Mit diesem Horrorfilm gelang ihm dann der Sprung nach Hollywood – und gleichzeitig wurde es der Beginn seiner lebenslangen Ambivalenz zwischen Genie und moralischem Skandal. (ARD, Wh.)

Susan Kendall Newman, ‘I Wanna Hold Your Hand’ Actress and Daughter of Paul Newman, Dies at 72
#MovieNews #Movies #JoanneWoodward #Obituaries #PaulNewman #RobertAltman -
"In celebration of what would have been his hundredth birthday, the Criterion Channel is currently featuring an extensive series of films by maverick auteur Robert Altman, who became so renowned in the 1970s that the term “Altmanesque” got bandied about regularly among critics and cinephiles. According to The Big Picture’s Sean Fennessey, whose video essay on Altman accompanies the Criterion series, “Altmanesque” refers to “the subversion of all expected modes in narrative storytelling — in genre, in filmmaking style, in performance.”
And for a director with a tendency toward “the undoing of everything we expect from a Hollywood movie,” Altman had an incredibly robust Hollywood career. His idiosyncratic approach to filmmaking treated the script as a “diagram” that provided loose guidelines but need not be adhered to while going through the process of “actors finding character and story finding itself.” In keeping with an approach that was virtually designed to oppose classical Hollywood production practices and drive producers and studio executives crazy, he favored intensive collaboration with actors.
Altman loved actors, and they almost uniformly adored him. He not only recruited great talent for film, such as Shelley Duvall, Lily Tomlin, and almost the entire supporting cast of M*A*S*H, whom he drafted from the American Conservatory Theater (ACT) in San Francisco, but also guided such favorites as Duvall and Elliott Gould to repeated flights of idiosyncratic brilliance."

@MagentaRocks 🧵Altman recommendations? #movies
Altman has 90 movie and TV director credits, with early TV series and late filmed adaptations of plays worth exploring on IMBD. I’d ask for #bucketlist recommendations, not chronological.
Your two are high on my #RobertAltman list, I’ll add:
Nashville - maybe my #1 movie
McCabe and Mrs Miller
Short Cuts
Secret Honor - adapted play
Popeye - antic world building
A Wedding - Altman black farce
Tanner ‘88 - 11 episode series with Gary Trudeau -
Over 20 Robert Altman films are now on the #Criterion Channel. Prêt-à-Porter was almost universally panned on its release in '94. Having watched it with little in the way of expectations, however, I found it a lot of fun. Certainly, coming immediately after The Player and Short Cuts, two of his absolute best, he's allowed some light slapstick and non-profundity. #film #movie #movies #robertaltman

Well, I know what *I’m* going to be watching most of this month… 23 movies and 18 episodes of Tanner ‘88.
“Born one hundred years ago, Robert Altman made movies that play like the cinematic equivalent of jazz—elastic, improvisational, and thrillingly alive to chance and happenstance... Imitated by many, matched by none, Altman’s films are worlds unto themselves, teeming with more humanity than a single story can contain.”

#TheLongGoodbye
#ilLungoAddio#RobertAltman prende un classico dei "gialli" come l'ispettore Marlowe e ne fa quasi una satira del genere.
Lento, apparentemente inconcludente, ironico e ipnotico...ti conquista senza che tu te ne accorga.📝Voto: 7 /10
"The long goodbye" di Robert Altman, 112 minuti, 1973.
-L'investigatore privato Marlowe non crede che il suo amico Lennox, imputato di uxoricidio, si sia suicidato in Messico e inizia perciò un'indagine personale che si rivela però ben presto tortuosa e pericolosa. Un pericoloso bandito inoltre lo bracca…- da themoviedb.org -
