When Marnie Was There at the SIFF Egyptian

In what is quite possibly to be the last film produced by the legendary Studio Ghibli, director Hiromasa Yonebayashi (The Secret World of Arrietty) adapts the lush hand-drawn animation style of founder Hayao Miyazaki to the world of English Gothic literature. Half ghost story, half romance, half coming of age tale, it’s as close as Ghibli has ever come to capturing the spirit of Val Lewton. Curse of the Cat People is I think its closest analogue, though Mike suggests Joseph L. Mankiewicz in Our Preview.

A Better Tomorrow at Scarecrow Video

John Woo, Chow Yun-fat and Tsui Hark revolutionized the modern crime film with a barrage of bullets, driving rain, brotherly bonds and slow-motion melodrama. Woo’s breakthrough film after a decade kicking around Hong Kong, it’s the film that made Chow an international icon. Also featuring Shaw Brothers superstar Ti Lung, up and coming genius Leslie Cheung and Waise Lee. We’ll be discussing the film this weekend on The George Sanders Show (along with Michael Mann’s Blackhat), but until then: Our Preview.

La Sapienza at the Northwest Film Forum

Oddball expatriate Eugène Green’s latest rumination on life, love and the Baroque comes to the Film Forum this week for an exclusive run. Fabrizio Rongione (Two Days, One Night) plays a depressed architect on vacation with his also depressed wife, a social worker. When the couple meet a young brother and sister, the four bond over a shared anachronism, in love with old buildings, wasting sickness and the Chaldeans of the Ninevah Plain. Our Preview.

Clouds of Sils Maria at the Seven Gables

Juliette Binoche and Kristen Stewart headline the latest from director Olivier Assayas, opening this week at the Seven Gables. Binoche plays a middle-aged actress reluctantly taking on the role of the older half of a poisonous relationship in a play she performed the younger role in in her own youth. Stewart is her steadfast assistant as the two discuss the play, acting in general and internet gossip in the Swiss Alps. Our Preview.
