FILM-ON-FILM
Programmed by Miriam Bale

Jacques Rivette – The Night Watchman
(Jacques Rivette - Le veilleur)
Dir. Claire Denis in collaboration with Serge Daney, 1990, France, 125 min.
In this superb introduction to Rivette's work, commissioned for the magnificent Cinéma, de notre temps series, Denis (his one-time assistant director) & the great film critic Daney question him in a variety of quintessentially Parisian locales. Interspersed with clips from his films, the eloquent filmmaker discusses mise en scène, art & ethics, the early days of the French New Wave & working with actors. This exploration takes place in two parts "The Day" & "The Night" revealing a multifaceted, fascinating & articulate artist. With cinematography by Denis regular Agnès Godard & featuring actors Bulle Ogier, Jean Babilée & Jean-François Stévenin.
