For nearly as long as we've been waging war, we've sought ways to chronicle it. “Warfare,” a new movie co-directed by the filmmaker Alex Garland and the former Navy SEAL Ray Mendoza, takes an unorthodox approach, recreating a disastrous real-life mission in Iraq according to Mendoza's own memories and those of the soldiers who fought alongside him. On this episode of Critics at Large, Vinson Cunningham, Naomi Fry, and Alexandra Schwartz discuss how “Warfare” 's visceral account brings us closer to a certain kind of truth, while also creating a space into which viewers can project their own ideologies. The hosts consider how artists have historically portrayed conflict and its aftermath—referencing Virginia Woolf's depiction of a shell-shocked soldier in “Mrs. Dalloway” and Vietnam-era classics such as “Apocalypse Now” and “Full Metal Jacket”—and how “Warfare,” with its emphasis on firsthand experience, marks a departure from much of what came before. “That personal tinge to me seems to be characteristic of the age,” Cunningham says. “Part of the emotional appeal is, This happened, and I'm telling you. It's not diaristic—but it is testimonial.”Read, watch, and listen with the critics:“Warfare” (2025)“Apocalypse Now” (1979)“Full Metal Jacket” (1987)“Beau Travail” (1999)“Saving Private Ryan” (1998)“The Hurt Locker” (2008)“Zero Dark Thirty” (2012)“Barry” (2018–23)“Mrs. Dalloway,” by Virginia Woolf“In Flanders Fields,” by John McCraeNew episodes drop every Thursday.

James is still absent while he devotes every waking hour to recovering from the Taylor Swift concert, so Boyd and Kay are joined by all-round legend Sophie Butcher, who recently compared Dating Naked UK and Love Island to Claire Denis' masterpiece Beau Travail.

This episode features Paolo Tizón and his documentary “Night Has Come”, which just won the Special Jury Award and the FIPRESCI (Critic) Award at the 58th Karlovy Vary International Film Festival. His main inspiration for the film: ‘Beau Travail' (1999) by Claire Denis.We discuss cinematic techniques used in documentaries, the importance of not knowing and being open to surprises while filming - how to listen to the material, editing and structuring a documentary, and the personal motivations behind making his film. We also touch on the connection between music and cinema, the importance of taking breaks during editing, and the value of test screenings.

In the second of three (or maybe even four!) episodes on Queer Cinema this month, Dhruv and Cris rhapsodize about Claire Denis' formally groundbreaking masterwork of queer and post-colonial cinema, "Beau Travail" (1999). Initially, we planned to make this a 25-30 minute "extra" episode because Cris' recent obsession with the film matched Dhruv's unwavering love for it. But the film, loosely based on Herman Melville's unfinished 1888 novella, "Billy Budd, Sailor," about male camaraderie that gives way to envy and jealousy, inspires a much longer discussion. Everything from the film's Godardian influences to Denis Lavant's staggering central performance to Agnès Godard's unforgettably haunting cinematography is discussed in detail here, with Dhruv and Cris recounting numerous instances from the film that continue to prove elusive even after three or four viewings. Listen to the full episode to hear us wax lyrical about Denis' subtle lyricism and her whole-hearted embrace of fragmented, elliptical storytelling. These formal and narrative transgressions, we argue, are what make "Beau Travail" an unforgettable, radical queer text.

This week we join the French Foreign Legion in Claire Denis' 1999 masterpiece, "Beau Travail." We discuss the film's influences including "Le Petit Soldat" and "Billy Budd, Sailor" as well as the film's beginnings as a TV movie. We then dive into the plot, interpreting and providing context to the story and imagery. Finally, we each pair the film with another for a pair of double bills!Thank you so much for listening!Created by Spike Alkire & Jake KelleyTheme Song by Breck McGoughFollow us on Instagram: @DoubleBillChillLetterboxd: FartsDomino44
Directed by Claire Denis and released in 1999, Beau Travail follows a Master-at-arms within the French Foreign Legion, named Galloup. He lives for the Legion and strives to be the perfect Legionnaire until one day a new recruit arrives, which raises doubts, questions, and unfamiliar feelings within Galloup. A love story about the Legion itself it is has been heralded as one of the great cinematic works of all time and one that continues to move and inspire audiences to this day.
We're considering the male form this week with two movies about masculinity. Representing the arthouse, it's Claire Denis's BEAU TRAVAIL (1999) and representing the mainstream, it's the breakout movie for Rob Schneider and Happy Madison Productions, DEUCE BIGALOW: MALE GIGOLO (1999). Which movie will enter the canon? And which will enter the trash canon and we can never watch it again for the rest of our lives??? Listen to find out!

Original Air Date: Monday 11 March, 9 pm Eastern Description: Because Phil is traveling, he and Dean pre-recorded this week's show on Sunday morning BEFORE the Oscars, so there will be scant little Academy Awards conversation on the episode. Instead, Dean and Phil re-visit some of the more troubling aspects of the legacy of "The X-Files" and examine two other television series: The acclaimed "The Bear" and the divisive season 4 of "Star Trek: Discovery" (including friend of show Luke Y. Thompson's hilarious review of season 4). Last week's "Live Event of the Week" gets re-visited thanks to an email from the subject of that segment! We will learn more about the great dancer and teacher Fujima Kansuma and Dean and Phil will ponder the possibility of someday taking a "deep dive" into the art of Kabuki on the show! Two fascinating films get discussed: Wim Wenders' 1993 Wings of Desire sequel, Faraway, So Close! and the 7th greatest film of all time according to the Sight and Sound Poll, Claire Denis' 1999 masterpiece Beau Travail (which is having a 25th anniversary re-release). "Celebrity Deaths" includes a bit of a quiz for Dean about a legendary Japanese artist and Canada's First Lady of Jazz, before a great Italian filmmaker, an influential and controversial British playwright, and a beloved "entertainer" all get their turn in the spotlight.

This week we're using a part to represent the whole and the whole to represent a part as Wrestling Brain's Josh Custodio joins us to go deep on the human condition with 2008's Synecdoche, New York, written and directed Charlie Kaufman, starring Philip Seymour Hoffman, Samantha Morton, Michelle Williams, Catherine Keener, Tom Noonan, Hope Davis and Dianne Wiest. Kaufman's directorial debut, coming hot on the heels of Eternal Sunshine, is at once an absurdist comedy and a devastating tragedy, with Hoffman giving what might be a career-best performance in a life that was full of great ones. Plus: losing faith in streamers, playing the same song on repeat, Jesus on the radio, movie-going as therapy, and how to get hooked on pro wrestling. Beyond the wider screenwriting resume of Charlie Kaufman, other works discussed in this episode include Annihilation, You Springin' Springsteen On My Bean?, Pokemon GO, Fishing with John, The Leftovers, Beau Is Afraid, TMNT: Mutant Mayhem, Bottoms, Aquaman, Joker, The Prestige, Arrival, Children of Men, Upgrade, There Will Be Blood, Beau Travail, Napoleon Dynamite, Mad God, and Walk The Line 2: Joaq The Line. If you want to watch the movie before listening to our discussion, you will have a hard time streaming it legally. So go buy it on physical media. It's a great movie, we promise you won't regret it. And be sure to catch Josh and Zubes every Wednesday night for A-E-Double-Dudes on the Wrestling Brain channel on Twitch, those guys are the best. We'll be back next week doing lord knows what! Follow us on Twitter @ADHDDVDpod to find out.

Inspired by the most recent Ari Aster release, the BAOLIT buds stretch the limits of their linguistic capabilities by constructing an episode theme entirely based on other movie titles they can mash up with Beau Is Afraid. and the results are predictably unhinged. Featured films:-Beau Is Afraid (2023)-Beau Travail (1999)-Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf (1966)-Wolf of Wall Street (2013)
Barrett Fisher and Sam Mulberry meet up in the video store to talk about the 1999 film Beau Travail and to get Barrett's film recommendation for next week. For more information about Video Store or to find all of our episodes, check out our website: https://videostorepodcast.wordpress.com/
Claire Denis had wowed us back in episode 45 when we reviewed her then-new-release, High Life, but it has taken our Sight & Sound catch-up journey to get us back to the writer/director's unique cinematic perspectives. To pair with her 1999 film Beau Travail (#7 on the 2022 poll), we look at one(!) of her two features from 2022, Both Sides of the Blade, starring BaaM faves Juliette Binoche (High Life) and Vincent Lindon (Titane) as well as Gregoire Colin, who also appears in Beau Travail. Its all about grown-up drama and cinematic style this week on BaaM, but you may want to put on your dancing shoes, just to be safe.
Kylie and Elliott talk about the movies they watched over the past week while searching for better cinematic dads. Along the way, they think about masculinity through slow cinema, encounter the brilliance of Spike Lee, delve deeper into Cronenberg, and take their niece to her first-ever movie theatre.This week's movies are: Beau Travail (1999), Do The Right Thing (1989), Videodrome (1983), The Father (2020), Spontaneous (2020), Paddington (2014).Follow along onInstagram: @baddad.raddadLetterboxd: kylieburton Letterboxd: ElliottKuss Hosted on Acast.

Jackie and Greg get into the rhythm of the night for Claire Denis' BEAU TRAVAIL from 1999. Topics of discussion include the film's use of movement, its unorthodox storytelling methods, an interpretation of the ending in the dance club, and why enigmatic films keep pulling you back into their orbit.#78 on Sight & Sound's 2012 "The 100 Greatest Films of All Time" list.bfi.org.uk/sight-and-sound/polls/greatest-films-all-time-2012#7 on Sight & Sound's 2022 "The 100 Greatest Films of All Time" list. bfi.org.uk/sight-and-sound/greatest-films-all-timeCheck us out on Instagram: instagram.com/sceneandheardpodCheck us out at our official website: sceneandheardpod.comJoin our weekly film club: instagram.com/arroyofilmclubJP Instagram/Twitter: jacpostajGK Instagram: gkleinschmidtPhotography: Matt AraquistainMusic: Andrew CoxGet in touch at hello@sceneandheardpod.comVisit our Patreon: patreon.com/SceneandHeardPod
On this episode, Wiz barrels through the Top 100 Films of All Time according to BFI Sight and Sound with his review of the beautiful "Beau Travail" directed by Claire Denis.
This week Carsten & Stephen scroll through the new Sight & Sound list of the top 100 films of all time, which stirred up the cineaste stew by unseating champions like Vertigo and Citizen Kane with Chantal Akerman's study in domestic intensity, Jeanne Dielman, 23 Quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles. This show takes a look at the two Akerman titles that appear on the list, including her documentary News From Home, plus titles that have as yet escaped their gaze like Claire Denis's Beau Travail; Roberto Rossellini's Journey to Italy; a landmark of African cinema, Touki Bouki; and a return to the realm of Iranian cinema with Abbas Kiarostami's Close-Up.

Michael and Louis take a look at Sight and Sound's critics poll of the Greatest Films of All Time, and venerated and prestigious institution that attracted some controversy this year. Should the critics have chosen as many recent films? Did they get the top ten right? What would Michael and Louis change about the list? Tune in to find out, and share your thoughts on Sight and Sound's poll with the two hosts by emailing them at contact@thepostrider.com.
The British Film Institute has revealed their once-in-a-decade Greatest Films of All Time list, and Scene Unseen is on the scene to let you know if they're worthwhile (they are (obviously)). First, Ben and Liam talk about the 7th ranked film, Claire Denis' meditative reflection on male aggression Beau Travail, before diving into the #1 ranked film according to thousands of critics: Chantal Akerman's 1975 slow cinema cult classic Jeanne Dielman, 23 quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles. Both are slow, both are beautiful, one is incredible (and probably both are). Join us! Follow us on Twitter Follow us on Spotify and Apple Podcasts Follow us on Letterboxd: Ben & Liam

A DEVILISHLY HAUNTING NEW EPISODE OF CINEPUNX IS HERE TO LURE YOU TO YOUR DOOM!… The post Cinepunx Episode 155: BEAU TRAVAIL & LET THE SUNSHINE IN (Our Claire Denis Jawn) appeared first on Cinepunx.
Die erste Folge mit neuem Konzept ist da! Ab sofort gibt es uns alle zwei Wochen zu hören, und im Gegensatz zu den vorherigen Folgen sprechen Leon und Ronja über bereits gestartete Filme und Serien bei Netflix und Co. Die neue Netflix-Miniserie Clark hätte Ronja am liebsten nach 15 Minuten ausgeschaltet, während Leon sie tatsächlich ganz gut fand. Beau Travail hingegen konnte Ronja auf beinahe allen Ebenen überzeugen, und Leon findet sowieso, dass die Schlussszene des Films von Claire Denis eine der besten Szenen überhaupt ist. Außerdem hat Ronja eine spannende Geschichte über ein U-Boot zu erzählen, das ihr während ihres Praktikums begegnet ist.Hier geht's zum erwähnten Artikel über den wahren Clark Olofsson: Spiegel.deEs geht künftig nur noch um Inhalte und nicht mehr um Starttermine, ihr könnt alles sofort streamen, über das die beiden Redakteure in der aktuellen Folge sprechen.Hier die Kapitelmarken und die Titel der empfohlenen Highlights:Topthemen01:35 Clark (Netflix)13:30 Beau Traivail (Arte Mediathek)Schnelle Streaming-Tipps: 22:10 Netflix:Constantine Workin' Moms23:45 Amazon Prime:WunderBeverly Hills Cop Shazam!

We're back from our hiatus! We're coming back to an arthouse favorite, Beau Travail.

Ben Phillips & Matt Waters present 25 of their favourite movies from the 1990s. It took until our penultimate episode for us to finally dip our toes into World Cinema, but we figured we'd make up for it by closing the volume out with Claire Denis' Beau Travail. Obviously this sparks conversation about homosexuality, literature, foreign policy and what's to come from your hosts in 2022. Music courtesy of Goldblume.
We talk about porch pirates, safe for work stories, and bad friend moves. Weekly Challenge: Movie – Beau Travail, Album – The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars.
Auf den Straßen Londons und in der Wüste Dschibutis begegnet unser Filmdoppel bei seinem vorletzten Streifzug zwei erstklassigen Streifen, die ihre Hauptfiguren sich ständig selbst betrachten lassen - mit fatalen Folgen. Wann wird (die eigene) Reflektion zur Folter für alle anderen? Hypnotische Bilder von Mike Leigh und Claire Denis lassen Fabian und Ralf in existenzielle Abgründe blicken, an Dynamiken am Arbeitsplatz verzweifeln und die eine oder andere Dancepop-Einlage genießen. This is the rhythm of the night!

Inspired by the Herman Melville novella Billy Budd, and shot on a small budget and in defiance of the French Military, the production of this movie saw more combat than actually ended up on the screen. But this tale of bitter obsession in a unit of the French Foreign Legion is as beautiful as it is confounding. Directed by Claire Denis with Cinematographer Agnes Goddard behind the camera, next week we try our hand at our first bona fide Art Film. Available as a Criterion disk or on their streaming service (free 14-day trial). Next Episode: Argo (2012) Feel free to contact us with any questions or comments!

'But it's impossible to fight just for an ideal. An ideal that just keeps changing. You know what I mean?' Claire Denis's Beau Travail and Mark Jenkin's Bait are films which use the ocean as a central motif. Since Homer's Odyssey, the sea has represented both metaphysical freedom as well as harsh material constraint. Both are about people who are at odds with their times: their work is the sea and the sea is their life and they cannot reach it. We ask how work and the sea are linked in these films, and what they can reveal to us about human desire and self-worth. We compare the regimented lives of modern disenfranchised Cornish fishermen to those of the colonial French navy, and analyse how Denis and Jenkin film the sea in relation to them. We also relate these films to the relationship through history between work and the sea, a relationship which goes on obscured to this day... Follow us on Twitter

The film centres on a group of French legionnaires serving in Djibouti. The second is High Life (2018), starring Robert Pattinson and Juliette Binoche.

This week we talk French Melville—no, not Jean-Pierre, but two temperamentally polar 1999 films by French auteurs based on works by Herman: Claire Denis's Beau Travail and Leos Carax's Pola X, based respectively on Billy Budd, Sailor and Pierre, or the Ambiguities. We ask such questions as: Why fascist aesthetics? Why opera-scored Tai Chi? Why incest? Why unsimulated sex? These are just the kinds of questions that come up when you're dealing with adaptations of classic American literature of the 19th century.

Cet épisode portrait sera consacré à une artiste bordelaise aux identités musicales multiples puisque quand elle n’officie pas dans le duo Génial au Japon ou celui de Pyramid Kiwi, elle s’exprime également et intimement à travers un projet musical personnel intitulé ROSELAND, que nous découvrirons à travers sa protagoniste : il s’agit d’Emeline Marceau. Son premier album To Save What Is Left est aussi puissant par ces compositions mélancoliques, que vulnérable par l’intimité qu’elle livre d’elle-même à travers ses paroles, même si certes, écrites en anglais. Certaines critiques n’hésitant pas à dire de cet album qu’il s’adresse aussi bien, je cite “au coeur qu’au cerveau”.

MONOS, Alejandro Landes’ awe-inspiring third feature, is a breathtaking survivalist saga set on a remote mountain in Latin America. The film tracks a young group of soldiers and rebels -- bearing names like Rambo, Smurf, Bigfoot, Wolf and Boom-Boom -- who keep watch over an American hostage, Doctora (Julianne Nicholson). The teenage commandos perform military training exercises by day and indulge in youthful hedonism by night, an unconventional family bound together under a shadowy force known only as The Organization. After an ambush drives the squadron into the jungle, both the mission and the intricate bonds between the group begin to disintegrate. Order descends into chaos and within MONOS the strong begin to prey on the weak in this vivid, cautionary fever- dream. With a rapturous score by Mica Levi (only her third, after UNDER THE SKIN and JACKIE), director Alejandro Landes examines the chaos and absurdity of war from the unique perspective of adolescence, recalling LORD OF THE FLIES and BEAU TRAVAIL in a way that feels wholly original. Landes brings together a diverse young cast of both seasoned professionals (including Hannah Montana's Moisés Arias) and untrained neophytes and thrusts them into an unforgiving, irrational and often surreal environment where anything can happen — even peace. Director Alejandro Landes talks about the grueling production challenges of shooting in a jungle, working with a young cast and how his collaboration with screenwriter Alexis Dos Santos and composer Mica Levi helped to create an intense, high-wire cinematic journey.

With Claire Denis' outer space epic High Life hitting UK cinemas at last, what better time to evaluate the French auteur's work and her 1999 classic, Beau Travail? With the robust support of Joseph Owen ( @josephowen30 ) on board, we dissect Denis' depiction of the body, science fiction, the post-colonial gaze... and that's before we even get to the 'fuck-box'. This episode is part of The ‘99 Project, where we review movies released in that year, and explore their legacy 20 years on.

The big day is here 5 films, a 12 hour marathon. Starting off with a Claire Denis retrospective Beau Travail. We cover two Troma adjacent films Assassinaut and Mutant Blast, all hail Lloyd. We would never miss a fresh Rick Alverson movie especially one starring Goldblum. UWE BOLL says "Fuck You All" to the critics and fans alike, but he seems like an interesting man in the documentary about his life.
Pour cet épisode, nous recevons notre ami et partenaire Gautier Raguenes, aimant “fabriquer” des films, et étudiant la production cinématographique.Dans cet entretien, ce cinéphile préférant souvent sa chambre aux salles obscures nous explique en quoi les films lui permettent de visiter les maisons d’autres cinéastes, que cela soit agréable ou non. Il nous raconte son goût tant pour les films-somme presque monstrueux (Magnolia ou Southland Tales) que pour des gestes de cinéma plus simples et intimes (Tant qu’il nous reste des fusils à pompe) et jette des ponts entre des oeuvres aussi différentes que Spider Man 1 et Beau Travail. Il n’oublie pas non plus de parler de ce qui le laisse froid (le cinéma d’Haneke) et de ce qui lui donne faim (Les Affranchis). Questions et films cités :1 - PORTRAIT : 04:29 Des mains de cinéma : Celle de Mary Jane (Kirsten Dunst) dans Spider Man 1 (Sam Raimi), 04:29 Des danses de cinéma : Denis Lavant dans Beau Travail (Claire Denis), Boogie Nights (Paul Thomas Anderson), 06:22 2 - CIRCONSTANCES, CONDITIONS DE VISIONNAGE… 08:40 Un film à (peut-être) oublier : Mulholland Drive (David Lynch), 08:54 Etre seul ou accompagné pour voir un film / Etre chez soi ou en salle ?, 11:26 Un film pour (bien) s’endormir : Magnolia (Paul Thomas Anderson), 16:28 Un film oublié, à l’exception d’un détail : Les amants du Pont-Neuf (Leos Carax), 18:41 CARTE BLANCHE : Les Affranchis, 20:02 3- Cinéma & Transmission, 23:14 Film détesté mais recommandé : Le ruban blanc (M.

The 70 year-old French director of "Beau Travail," "35 Shots of Rum" and last year's "Let the Sunshine In" is having a moment. After 30 years of critically-acclaimed work, Claire Denis remains largely unknown in the U.S. That could change with her latest, HIGH LIFE, an existential sci-fi film starring Robert Pattinson and Juliette Binoche. Denis was in Chicago for a recent screening of the film, giving Adam and guest host Scott Tobias a rare chance to sit down with Denis and talk about how "High Life" fits into her sensuous and provocative body of work and how, among other things, Stephen Hawking's writing contributed to the universe she created on screen. She also plays along with the Filmspotting Five, where she admits to loving ok-maybe-not-your-least-favorite-Wes-Anderson-movie-but-few-people's-favorite (not even Josh's). Also on the show: Adam and Scott join the chorus of critics - and moviegoers - who have found themselves surprisingly charmed by the DCEU's SHAZAM.

In episode forty of movies imo., Ben, Brandon, and Daniel yell over each other about Claire Denis' transcendent romantic comedy LET THE SUNSHINE IN then get out their best shirts to iron in the desert and discuss other Denis favorites including 35 SHOTS OF RUM, WHITE MATERIAL, THE INTRUDER, TROUBLE EVERY DAY, and BEAU TRAVAIL. Ben hails the film for its open emotional borders and bestows upon it early frontrunner status for his best of the year, Daniel obsesses over the hallways and humanism of 35 SHOTS OF RUM, and Brandon decides who does and does not have Big Dick Energy in the Claire Denis Extended Universe.

This week we welcome the return of one of our favourite directors, Claire Denis, whose comedy-drama Let the Sunshine In features a career-best turn from Juliette Binoche. Also up for discussion is The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society – is it as clumsy and convoluted as its title suggests? James Richardson, David Jenkins and Sophie Monks Kaufman have their say, plus the gang revisits Denis' abstract odyssey from 1999, Beau Travail, for Film Club. And as we're celebrating a year since the very first Truth & Movies, some of the team pick their favourite films from the last 12 months. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
We are joined for this extended conversation about the work of filmmaker Claire Denis by Dr. Felicity Gee. Felicity, a previous guest of the show, provides some wonderful insight into and thoughts on the work of the French filmmaker whose new film Let The Sunshine In is released by Curzon/Artificial Eye this Friday, April 20th. The episode covers a range of topics including aesthetics and feminism, the canonisation of Beau Travail, as well as the new film and how it fits into her body of work. Music in the episode comes from some of the collaborations Denis has undertaken with the band Tindersticks. Music: Opening (from 35 Rhums) / The Black Mountain (from L’intrus) / Children’s Theme (from White Material) / Train Montage (from 35 Rhums) / Trouble Every Day (from Trouble Every Day).

NF. Postscript 2: I apologise for all the rummaging you hear on the episode. Due to Dario and Felicity being in the same room we couldn't record using headphones over Skype so their mic picked up my fidgeting. NF.

On the outside, Claire Denis' Beau Travail (1999) is slathered with homoeroticism, which is exactly why the French Legion wasn't too happy that she made it. However, it's really a film about alienation and one man's downward spiral into isolation, insanity, and tragedy. (And, yes, I've just described every other French film prior to 2000 ever made.) The film is currently available on DVD, and those of you who frequent speciality shops (or want to drop $30 for a copy of your own) may be able to find it.
