In this third video roundup, you’ll find new video clips that will take you to original universes, some of them being clearly inspired by the cinema. English electronic band Hot Chip have unveiled the video clip for their new single ”Night & Day”. It’s an electro dance song, quite similar to what Hot Chip got us used [...]

The Color Wheel Dir. Alex Ross Perry [Cinema Conservancy; 2011] by Jeff Rovinelli Rating: Director Alex Ross Perry’s last film, Impolex , transposed the literary play of Pynchon’s novel Gravity’s Rainbow into an aesthetic that resembled a film made by a 14-year-old who was somehow endowed with the ability to operate a 16mm camera, to unexpectedly effective, if minor, ends. His most recent film, The Color Wheel , makes something of the opposite move, taking the markers of the fast-decaying “mumblecore movement” — shitty camerawork, non-actors talking constantly about almost nothing, the lives of twenty-somethings, humor of the most uncomfortable ...

Right now, it's still unclear if the fairy tale movie is really going to end up being a potent force. While "Once Upon A Time" and "Grimm" have found fans on the small screen, in the cinema, "Alice in Wonderland" aside (and that's a film that's only really a fairy tale by the loosest definition of the word), none of the live-action reboots of classic folklore material, from "Red Riding Hood" to "Mirror Mirror," have gotten much traction with audiences. That could (and we suspect will) change in a couple of weeks when "Snow White And The ...

In 1958, the American idea of the teenager hit Britain. Pathé News caught early examples of this strange new breed at large in London's Soho This may seem very familiar. That's because it's been chopped and edited into dozens of historical documentaries, as a seminal piece of documentary footage. And rightly so: although burdened with the customary, clunky voiceover that Pathé reserved for youth in this period – all that tired "hepcat" jabber – it gives a clear overview, and some fabulous shots, from the dawn of British pop culture. Journalistically, Pathé was right on time: 1958 was the ...

Awesome mashup from Zedd featuring himself and Skrillex. Not much more to be said about it. Listen, enjoy, download.   MP3: Zedd vs. Skrillex – “Don’t Slam The Cinema” (Zedd Mashup)

Hi hi. Welcome back to The 405 Film Digest, in the week that most of you finally got to go see Avengers Assemble and swell its frankly super box office success, the week in which the majority of my Twitter timeline filled up with Homeland-finale excitement followed by glee and the subsequent post-season depression, and the week in which all manner of political controversy riled up the populace so much that a great swathe of London couldn't even face the stress of the polling booths. Anyway, read on for Jake's great feature centred around the recent Oldboy casting ...

Tim Burgess knows a thing or two about festivals. Lead singer of The Charlatans, the frontman has spent the best part of two decades entertaining crowds across the UK, Europe and beyond. Gaining more than a few memorable stories along the way, Tim Burgess recently put down some of his more intriguing anecdotes into an autobiography. Logically titled 'Telling Stories' the book is available to buy at all good book shops. To celebrate, ClashMusic invited Tim Burgess to curate his Dream Festival - here's what he came up with... - - - The first thing I was thinking when putting together the line ...

A lot of time and effort has been put into making cinema a more visceral, more immersive experience, whether through 3D and IMAX. Art collective 85A’s Chernozem: Kino goes way beyond that - although, technically it’s silent and black and white - by expanding the nature of cinema itself, going back to its roots in the cinema of attractions from the side show and the carny. The film itself is, as mentioned, silent and monochrome, in the grand German expressionist style, shot on antique video cameras, most of which died during the shooting. This is a film, however, where the ...

“We are still coming to terms with Robert Bresson, and the peculiar power and beauty of his films,” Martin Scorsese said in the 2010 book “A Passion For Film,” describing the often overlooked French filmmaker as “one of the cinema’s greatest artists.” But while he may be revered by some as the finest French filmmaker bar Jean Renoir, outside hardcore cinephile circles he and his films are virtually unknown (perhaps regarded as too opaque or nebulous). Just consider the fact that almost every definitive book on the elusive director was published during the aughts to feel the full truth ...
