Director Choosing
1. Bernardo Bertolucci
Featured Movie The Conformist (1970) Last Tango in Paris (1972) La luna (1979) The Last Emperor (1987) The Sheltering Sky (1990) Stealing Beauty (1996)
Bernardo Bertolucci is an Italian film director and screenwriter. In recognition of his work, he was presented with the inaugural Honorary Palme d’Or Award at the opening ceremony of the 2011 Cannes Film Festival. Bertolucci initially wished to become a poet like his father. With this goal in mind, he attended the Faculty of Modern Literature of the University of Rome from 1958 to 1961, where his film career as an assistant director to Pasolini began. Shortly after, Bertolucci left the University without graduating. In 1962, at the age of 22, he directed his first feature film, produced by Tonino Cervi with a screenplay by Pasolini, called La commare secca. Bertolucci increased his fame with his next few films, from 1900. In 1987, Bertolucci directed the epic The Last Emperor, a biographical film telling the life story of Aisin-Gioro Puyi, the last Emperor of China. At the 60th Academy Awards, The Last Emperor won all nine Oscars for which it was nominated: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Writing, Screenplay Based on Material from Another Medium, Best Cinematography, Best Film Editing, Best Costume Design, Best Art Direction-Set Decoration, Best Music, Original Score and Best Sound. The Last Emperor was the first feature film ever authorized by the government of the People’s Republic of China to film in the Forbidden City. Bertolucci had proposed the film to the Chinese government as one of two possible projects. The other film was La Condition Humaine by André Malraux. The Chinese government preferred The Last Emperor, and made no restrictions on the content. The Last Emperor became the first western film made in China and about the country to be produced with full Chinese government cooperation since 1949.

The Pillow Book (1996)
Peter Greenaway is a British film director. His films are noted for the distinct influence of Renaissance and Baroque painting, and Flemish painting in particular. He was born in Wales and educated in London. He is trained as a painter for four years, and started making his own films in 1966. He has continued to make cinema in a great variety of ways, which has also informed his making of installations for the Palazzo Fortuny in Venice, the Joan Miro Gallery in Barcelona, the Boymans -van Beuningen Museum in Rotterdam, the Louvre in Paris, the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, the Hoffburg in Vienna, the Brera in Milan and the Armory in New York. He has collaborated with the composers John Cage, Philip Glass, Michael Nyman, Wim Mertens, Louis Andriessen, Goran Brekovic, Giovanni Sollima and David Lang, and toured the world with his Tulse Luper Suitcases VJ Show. He has regularly been nominated for the Film Festival Competitions of Cannes, Venice and Berlin. He had published fictions, film-scrips and catalogues, written for the theatre and opera, held numerous painting shows and participated in many installations. In 2006, Greenaway began an ambitious series of digital video installations, Nine Classical Paintings Revisited, with his exploration of Rembrandt’s Night Watch in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. On 30 June 2008, after much negotiation, Greenaway staged a one-night performance ‘remixing’ da Vinci’s The Last Supper in the refectory of Santa Maria delle Grazie[6] in Milan to a select audience of dignitaries. The performance consisted of superimposing digital imagery and projections onto the painting with music from the composer Marco Robino.

Film Career Following this experience, Sofia retreated from the spotlight, enrolling in the fine arts program at the California Institute of Arts, concentrating on her photography, experimenting with costume and fashion design and contributing to her brother Roman’s film efforts. In 1993, however, she began writing the screenplay adaptation of Jeffrey Eugenides’ The Virgin Suicides. Starring James Woods, Kathleen Turner and Kirsten Dunst, the subtle, haunting film was an overwhelming critical and art house success. Coppola made headlines again in 2003 when she debuted Lost In Translation, a film she both wrote and directed. With veteran comic actor Bill Murray as her muse, the film tells the story of two Americans strangers: one a young new wife, the other an American movie star turned whisky pitchman struggling to find kinship and meaning in life during a chance meeting in a hotel in Japan. In 2004, Coppola won an Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay for the film. Sofia Coppola’s Wnext film wasn’t as universally well received as its predecessor. Coppola wrote, directed and produced the imaginative reinvention of a classic figure from French history in 2006’s Marie Antoinette. Starring Kirsten Dunst as the title character, the film earned some positive reviews, but it failed to catch on with movie audiences. It was praised its stunning visuals, rock soundtrack and Dunst’s portrayal of the self-absorbed teenage royal. The film was nominated for an Academy Award for Outstanding Achievement in Costume Design.
