Claude Goretta, a Relentless Gentleness The Swiss Cinémathèque has undertaken a digital restoration of all Claude Goretta’s films, and will be mounting a full retrospective of his work in the autumn. A fine initiative that will soon enable us to revisit the work of one of the greatest of Swiss filmmakers.

This rediscovery begins at Locarno with the screening of three of his best films

Mr. Proiezionista “E piano piano si srotola, di questo film la pellicola...” cantava Paolo Conte.

Quarantuno anni di servizio in cabina significa averne srotolata tanta, di pellicola.

Anche se adesso si è passati dai chilometri di poliestere ai pixel del DCP. Migliaia e migliaia di film, di ogni lunghezza, di ogni nazionalità. Giuntar per la prima volta i rulli di un film in anteprima mondiale, l’emulsione ancora fresca di laboratorio, o proiettare un classico dei classici da archivio di cineteca, mandato a memoria.

Ed è stato proprio durante lo storico An American in Paris di Minnelli che è avvenuto ieri sera l’ultimo “cambio” della carriera di Mario Pini, figura storica del Festival e proiezionista a Locarno nelle ultime 41 edizioni. Che dire: non possiamo che far altro che ringraziarlo, da spettatori, per la sua dedizione.

(La Dentellière, L’Invitation, La Provinciale), the world première of Lionel Baier’s moving and humorous documentary Bon vent Claude Goretta and the presentation of a Pardo alla carriera to the filmmaker during the festival’s closing ceremony.

Isabelle Huppert’s brilliant performance in La Dentellière (adapted from a Pascal Lainé novel) launched her career, and displays all the qualities characteristic of Goretta’s films: precision of mise en scène, sensuality, political awareness.

Timid Pomme discovers sensual pleasure with her first lover, François, who she meets at the seaside. The couple decide to live together. But Pomme is a lowly and uneducated shampooist while François is a student from a bourgeois intellectual background.

He subsequently dumps her quite shamelessly. Passively she accepts their break-up, but cannot get over it.

Beneath its apparent mildness, La Dentellière is a violent film, locating the class struggle in the context of a love affair, and demonstrates here as elsewhere how irreconcilable they are: a harsh and painful acknowledgement.

(Olivier Père)

I grazie e i mille Piacevole condanna: sono i numeri, animati dai giri di giostra Pardo Live, che ci obbligano a dire grazie. Come avete visto, a scortare il Festival nelle sue curve informative, quest’anno non c’era soltanto l’edizione cartacea, ma una piattaforma multimediale con web-tv e sito internet aggiornato in tempo diretto.

Ebbene, i dati definitivi arriveranno più avanti, ma qui basti ricordare che si sono avuti picchi come quello di lunedì scorso – il giorno–Depardieu – di 16.000 visitatori.

Che è un po’ come moltiplicare altre due Piazze Grandi, allargando la visibilità vicina e lontana del Festival. Un orizzonte reso possibile dalle tante professionalità che ci hanno lavorato. Da chi ha creato le impalcature economiche degli sponsor (Timbal) a quelle della linea grafica (Jannuzzi), passando per il solido team della redazione. Senza dimenticare dirette tv (Boillat, Gugliuzza), foto (De Maria, Lambours, Bertoglio, Pizzelli) e i video degli studenti del CISA (capitanati da Robbiani, Schrade, Ghielmini, Lanfranconi) che si sono mossi come scafati professionisti.

Se a questo aggiungiamo grafici e webmaster (Spinosa, Baylaender, Smeraldi) che, per restare fedeli alle concezioni live, hanno praticamente dormito in redazione…

What was your reaction when you received the good news?

Well, I couldn’t believe it, also because I wasn’t the one to directly receive the call. When I was told, I hung up and then rang back straight afterwards to check if it was true and if I had understood correctly. And then, OK, it was happiness. It’s difficult to find

character film, so the story couldn’t rely on anything but the realistic strength of their acting. And I have to say that all actresses, in the work done before the shoot, have given a vital contribution to the development of their characters – the big sister still attached to her development, the little sister who’s enigmatic and elusive, and the middle sister who instead rebels because it’s harder for her to find her place in the world.

Milagros Mumenthaler 5 questions to She’s the director whose film opened doors and windows to the Pardo d’oro 2011.

words when you receive a prize like this for your first film.

So let’s talk about this intimate Abrir puertas y ventanas, which circles around the bereavement and the relationship between three women.

The focus point was just the relationship between the three, which, once the family pillar is fallen, with the grandmother’s death, have to take responsibility and make decisions, and this slowly makes them move from an adolescent world to a adulthood.

Each one of them takes a different path, because when facing the void left by the loss, it was inevitable that their communication would have been touch by misunderstandings.

The many psychological facets are fully rendered by your trio of actresses.

It’s not by chance that Maria Canale also won the prize for Best Actress.

It’s something that makes me really happy, because this is basically a

Tutto si ambienta in una casa di Buenos Aires, ma senza claustrofobia: porte e finestre ci fanno capire che fuori c’è comunque una vita che continua

There’s another main character in the story: the white house in Buenos Aires where the sisters live. A place made of “doors” and “windows” which open and close relationships, gazes and emotions.

In the end the house in nothing else but the metaphor of the grandmother who’s no longer there. It’s the familiar space that nourishes all their relationship, but without turning into a claustrophobic place. It was important to let openings that would allow to enter and exit the house, because out there, for all of them, life still goes on.

And it was also a way to let us in on the story, discovering it all bit by bit…

When someone enters a stranger’s house, you don’t understand all internal relationships straight away, but you have to move through the cues that come from different characters, behaviors, motivations. You proceed slowly, just like spectators identify with the story a bit at the time.

Libération, France

Locarno espère jouer gagnant sur tous les écrans Cinéma. En Suisse, le plus petit des grands festivals alterne jusqu’au 13 août œuvres radicales et populaires. (...) On a pu noter l’an passé avec quelle ambition Père s’y était pris pour redorer la robe du Léopard tessinois, dotant tout d’abord le festival de ce qui lui manquait le plus : un marché du film concentré sur quatre jours Locarno devenant soudain cinéphile et concurrentiel. Puis il a fait ce qu’il sait faire le mieux : un dosage d’œuvres radicales croisées à des films de genre grand public, et une pincée de glamour.

Screen International

Wenn am Samstag mit der Verleihung der Goldenen Leoparden das 64. Festival del film Locarno zu Ende geht, kann Olivier Père zufrieden sein: Dem künstlerischen Direktor ist es gelungen, das Filmfest am Lago Maggiore weiter aufzuwerten.

Mit einem hochwertigen Angebot ist er dem Ziel nähergekommen, Locarno aus der Außenseiterrolle zu holen und als gleichberechtigt neben den drei wichtigsten europäischen Filmfestivals in Berlin, Cannes und Venedig zu etablieren.

Il Fatto Quotidiano, Italy

A Grande adventure It’s only Olivier Père’s second year as Artistic Director of the Festival del film Locarno and already the programme is looking more robust than it has in some years.World premieres from fascinating filmmakers such as Julia Loktev, Emmanuel Mouret, Adrian Sitaru and Luca Guadagnino sit alongside studio extravaganzas Super 8 and Cowboys & Aliens in a line-up that should keep both industry and audiences happy. Tha’s not to mention international premieres from Mia HansenLøve, Azazel Jacobs and Shinji Aoyama. It’s a programme that at first glance would intrigue any cinephile.

Puntuali come da elvetica ovvietà, alle 21.30 si spengono le luci e si accende Piazza Grande. La più famosa e immensa platea cinematografica del mondo.

Una sala open air a misura di popolo, metafora del cinema che vive con e per la gente. Coincidente col cuore di Locarno, è definita dai frequentatori un “luogo magico”, dove da 40 anni celebrati proprio in questa edizione, l’emozione compie il miracolo di autentica democrazia, agendo tanto sui divi hollywoodiani quanto sugli occupanti dell’ultima fila delle 8mila sedie davanti al più grande schermo d’Europa: 26 per 14 metri.

À ses débuts en 2010, le Français a radicalement aminci la programmation, en permettant au Festival del film Locarno de trouver sa propre respiration, plus ample et profonde. Mais à l’ouverture de l’édition 2011, le directeur artistique Olivier Père est hors d’haleine.

En d’autres termes, la sélection de la 64e édition du rendez-vous cinématographique international est un coup de maître. Surprenante mais sans triomphalisme, parce que le vrai triomphe est dans les contenus et dans les faits: un retour des «blockbuster» américains, mais pas seulement. Il y a aussi les vedettes du cinéma d’hier et d’aujourd’hui. Olivier Père, qui propose une conception cohérente et vivante du cinéma, est revenu aux origines du Festival: un rendez-vous mondial pour le film d’auteur, indépendant, émergent, sans oublier la grande histoire du cinéma.

I’m writing from the 64th Festival del film Locarno, one of the oldest cine-events in the world.

The festival’s repute isn’t based on the distinct glamour like the three major fests – Cannes, Venice, Berlin – but in its usually sharp, adventurous film selection (though Euro-heavy) and especially in the mythical Piazza Grande screening, where a mass of humanity sits hypnotised, hugged by rows of 18th century architecture, as a slim beam of atomised light is magnified into towering, moving pictures.

Today the winner is: Gysin Gilda, 6883 Novazzano Pick up your prize at the UBS branch, Largo Zorzi, Locarno.

Final Prize: Wettgrube Andrea, 6648 Minusio

Commedie come «Tutti pazzi per Mary» con Ben Stiller e Cameron Diaz favoriscono sensibilmente l’irrorazione sanguigna.

Storie tragiche come il film di Spielberg «Salvate il soldato Ryan» la influenzano invece negativamente.
