CINEASTE,~VO'L. XXXV, NO.3, SUARTICLESDVDs:A New Form of Collective Cinephiliaby Jonathan RosenbaumThe seeming displacement of the theatrical viewing experience by the home theatricalone is cause for alarm in certain quarters. Rosenbaum argues that the "theatricalexperience" has its own drawbacks and compromises, and that more options createopportunities to encourage viewership of films that are otherwise difficultto see.
CIN
The Best DVD Audio Commentaries by DouglasPrattAudio commentaries have been around since the LaserDisc era in the early 1980s, butsome talk is cheap. Pratt, who has been on the home-theater scene since that time,picks some of his favorites, ones where filmmakers and film experts "present theirwork in its best light, or to explain and embellish the context of its creation." Thosewith the gift of gab-Ridley Scott, Francis Ford Coppola, and Peter Cowie. 17
New Lives on DVDfor Nontheatrical Films by DavidSterrittHome theater is unearthing a hidden world of films never intended for theatricalexhibition, a catch-all category that includes certain kinds of documentaries andnewsreels, avant-garde cinema, industrials, and propaganda. Compensating for theskimpy packaging is a robust amount of material, as Sterritt explores African,American and European documentaries, literary bios, and avant-garde cinema.
Movies it la MOD by James NeibaurThe waves 'of extras-laden catalog releases on standard DVDfrom the Hollywoodmajors have slowed to a trickle. Enter the Warner Archive and Manufacturing onDemand (MOD),which makes available online previously un released titles on DVD-R,from AIJolson vehicles to Jodie Foster in 1980's Carny. Other studios have dippedtheir toes into the same waters, which are muddied by high prices, uneven quality,and other concerns, but may be the last best chance to open up studio vaults. 28
Make Way for Blu-ray by JenniferA. WoodGreat picture, great sound-the only thing that's lacking for the hot high-definitionformat is great movies, besides today's blockbusters. But there are reasons foraficionados to go Blu, as the status quo is beginning to change. Falling prices forplayers, the durability of the format, and increased demand by viewers is bringingthe likes of Antonioni's Red Desert, Godard's Contempt, and Mackendrick's TheLadykillers to a market dominated by Twilight and The Hangover.
How to Become a IIRegion-Free" DVD Viewerby Gary Crowdus
INTERVIEWSAnAuteur in Spite of Himself:An Interviewwith Alain Resnais by GaryCrowdus and RichardPortonEvenbythe standards of Hiroshima mon amour, Last Year at Marienbad, and Muriel, WildGrassis awildly unconventionalfilm.Resnais,whoturns 88in June, says he is alwaysdrawnto experimenting,and WildGrassis givenoverto joyouslycomplicatedgenrehopping, elegantly photographed and eclectically scored. The filmmaker discusses hisworking relationships with writers, why he prefers studio shoots to going on location,and how time and not critical reception judges his cinematic innovations.
A Death in the Family:An Inteaviewwith Mia Hansen-Leve byRichardPortonThesuicideof Frenchfilm producer Humbert Balsan is the real-life mystery behind thefictional The Father of My Children, which also delves into the conundrums of filmmaking,cinephilia, and family ties. "I wanted to make a film that gives you both cruelty and thebeauty of life, the happiness along with the sadness," says Hansen-LllIve, who knewBalsan, and intended her movie as a tribute to the art cinema he championed.
The Most Dangerous Man in America:An IntelViewwith Rick Goldsmith byDanLybargerThe codirector of this documentary about Daniel Ellsberg found in his subject a film thatwent beyond his leaking of the Pentagon Papers to the press, a turning point in theVietnam War. Relating Ellsberg's story as a political thriller, Goldsmith retraced the stepsthat led the MIT professor to his fateful decision, including a painful family history. 37Cover: Members of the Recchi clan in Luca Guadagnino's I Am Love.

Welcome. With his Palme d'Or for the visionaryUncleBoonmeeWho CanRecallHis PastLives,
Thailand's Apichatpong Weerasethakul (left withCannes festival director Thierry Fremaux) joins aselect band of Asian directors to have won theaward - including, of course, this month's coverstar Kurosawa Ak:ira(far left, and P.32),whosecentenary this month we mark with an I I-pagespecial. As a counterweight to the array of freshtalent revealed in our in-depth Cannes report(p.I 6),we offer two more elder statesmen, bothstill producing unique new work - Alain Resnais(P.44)and two-time Palme d'Or-winner FrancisFord Coppola (far left with Kurosawa and GeorgeLucason the set ofKagemusha,and p.28).Throwin rediscovered gems from the shifting sands oflate-I 960s and 1970SBritish cinema (p.I2 and p.26)and you'vegot arich bouillabaisseworthy oftheCote d'Azur itself. Tuck in. -0-NickJames
