Cannes Classics: A full bill of features starts at 3
Five rarely seen features screening at Cannes Classics
Cannes Classics, the section of the Festival devoted to landmark films of the past, will screen two films in cooperation with the World Cinema Foundation at 3 pm in Salle Buñuel today. The first of these features is Images from the Playground by Stig Björkman, made from fully restored prints of never-released "home movies" shot by director Ingmar Bergman while making each of his films. The second, Redes (The Wave), was made by Mexican directors Emilio Gómez Muriel and Fred Zinnemann in 1936. At 5 pm, a restored print of the 1982 film by Austrian director Axel Corti, God Does Not Believe in Us Anymore, set in 1938 Vienna, will be shown. Then, at 8 pm, there is a showing of Pietro Germi: The Good, the Beautiful, the Bad, a documentary by Claudio Bondí about the personality and career of a filmmaker who never deserved to be forgotten, Pietro Germi. Germi showed seven of his films in Competition at the Cannes Festival, winning the Palme d’Or in 1966 for Signore E Signori (The Birds, the Bees, and the Italians). A new print of this comedy, scheduled for re-release in French theaters next July 29th, will top off the evening of rare treats.
