Alain Tanner
Among the last lions of the heroic age of the European art film,
the Geneva-born Tanner burst onto the international cinema scene
at age 40 with his debut feature, 1969’s Charles, Dead or Alive,
completed after stints with the merchant navy and the British Film
Institute, where he became charged with the unquiet spirit of the
Free Cinema movement. Back home, the fired-up Tanner would
forge a radical body of work that bristles at the numbing neutrality La Salamandre screens Sunday, March 25, at 2 p.m.
and status-quo monotony of his native country, a cinema full of
rebels, outcasts, and dropouts, where the presiding mood is one of
driftlessness and anxious ambivalence, and a filmography ripe for the rediscovery. This touring series has
been organized by UW Cinematheque and New York City’s Metrograph. Special thanks to Jake Perlin and
Marcel Müller.

Reinventing Hollywood
This lineup of great entertainments draws its inspiration from
David Bordwell’s new book, Reinventing Hollywood: How 1940s
Filmmakers Changed Movie Storytelling. The book and this series
focus on just some of the storytelling methods that made the ’40s
period exciting, in particular the outrageous and outlandish use of
flashbacks and subjective viewpoints, as well as an exploration of
character psychologies and neuroses.
