4:00 PM · Vivre sa vie · Pacific Film Archive (Berkeley) · film · rating 6
bampfa.org · details Vivre sa vie depicts Nana (Anna Karina), a naive shopgirl, at the brief, flickering moment when she takes responsibility for her life. Nana takes to the streets, becoming a prostitute and a student of human emotions. Brechtian in its use of twelve dispassionately announced tableaux, Vivre sa vie is also intensely personal. Nana’s crucible is Jean-Luc Godard’s existential epiphany: Nana struggles to see, and say, things as they are, bravely concluding, “All is good.”
6:30 PM · Kwaidan · Pacific Film Archive (Berkeley) · film · rating 6
bampfa.org · details Breathtakingly photographed on hand-painted sets, Kwaidan is at once a Japanese woodcut writ large, and an abstract wash of luminescent colors that seem to come from another world. An electronic soundtrack by avant-garde composer Toru Takemitsu plays hauntingly with natural sounds—crickets, rain, the cracking of wood, the loud silence of snow. Yet the stories—four of Lafcadio Hearn’s ghostly tales—strangely contradict this plastic splendor in their simple, aching humanity.
