Alex Ashe's story doesn't begin behind a camera. It begins with a battered lighting technician's manual clutched between takes, with sweat on his brow and questions on his tongue. From long nights rigging lights to quiet hours studying lenses, Ashe's climb through the grip and electric department shaped the sensibility he brings to the frame today. Now a cinematographer and director, his images carry that hard-earned precision and a belief that light is never neutral. In this episode, Ashe discusses the layered politics of light and shadow, from his work on Nosferasta, an anti-colonial Rastafarian vampire epic, to The Ballad of Suzanne Césaire, shot almost entirely on 16mm in the relentless Florida sun. His collaborations with artists like Madeleine Hunt-Ehrlich and Ira Sachs open a conversation about the deep trust between director and DP, where every decision—from pulling the exposure to choosing glass—is both a technical and philosophical one. But this is also the story of a filmmaker who questions images even as he makes them. Ashe grew up in the age of Netflix DVDs and arrived at cinema through theory, through The Battle of Algiers, through late-night rewinds. His education in Modern Culture and Media and Africana Studies taught him to interrogate the frame—and that mindset infuses all his work, whether shooting the surreal aftermath of a police shooting or chasing natural light in a cramped apartment. Visual Intonation is a show about how we see, and in this conversation, Ashe shows us how cinema can still be both a document and a dream. We talk risk, reverence, and the beauty of shooting on film. No gimmicks. Just a love for the image and the meaning inside it. Alex Ashe's Website: https://alexmashe.com/Alex Ashe's IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm5737742/Alex Ashe's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alexmashe/?hl=enSupport the showVisual Intonation Website: https://www.visualintonations.com/Visual Intonation Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/visualintonation/Vante Gregory's Website: vantegregory.comVante Gregory's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/directedbyvante/ To support me on Patreon (thank you): patreon.com/visualintonations Tiktok: www.tiktok.com/@visualintonation Tiktok: www.tiktok.com/@directedbyvante

El protagonista del Collita pròpia de març és Agus Izquierdo, crític de cinema de capçalera a Núvol i amb qui desgranem la seva trobada amb Ira Sachs, cineasta estatunidenc i icona del cinema independent LGTBIQ+ que ha visitat Barcelona com a convidat d'honor del Festival Americana.Izquierdo explica on va ser la trobada, com la intimitat i l'homosexualitat han marcat la trajectòria cinematogràfica de l'autor i com ha evolucionat el cinema de Sachs des del seu debut a 'The Delta', el 1996. L'entrevista porta com a titular 'La masculinitat ja no s'amaga, però continua sent violenta'.Entrem a la roda de recomanacions, ja que Izquierdo cita l'article 'La ‘femme fatale' del segle XV', de Sofia Vilella, una crítica de 'La Belle Dame sans merci', un poema del segle XV d'Alain Chartier traduït al català per Francesc Oliver i que publica l'Editorial Barcino. L'autora ens fa cinc cèntims del llibre i, de passada obre, com diu ella, un meló que no menciona al text.Vilella Pujol recomana l'entrevista que Berta Coll ha fet a Eulàlia Bosch, escriptora, professora i comissària que publica 'En terra de meravelles', un recull de textos a cavall de l'autobiografia i la crítica d'art. L'entrevista es titula 'Cal ser molt valenta per encarar la mort amb curiositat'. Coll també comenta la conversa amb l'escriptora al pòdcast.A la secció de pòdcasts culturals ens transportem al 1938 per conèixer la història de Pere Esclar, un jove soldat anarquista de Sallent que va abandonar la seva unitat per emprendre el camí de l'exili. Ho fem gràcies al pòdcast 'Sentir l'arxiu', que publica l'Arxiu Nacional de Catalunya.Un dels articles més destacats del mes de març ha sigut 'Dret a emocionar-se', de Daniel Casanovas, escriptor teatral i fundador de la companyia Grop, que treballa a l'Empordà i Girona. L'autor planteja que hi ha una desigualtat geogràfica a Catalunya per accedir a la cultura i al Collita pròpia explica qui s'ha posat en contacte amb ell arran de la publicació.Després, la indicatiu ens interpreta un fragment d'un capítol inèdit de la mítica sèrie 'Polseres vermelles'. El podeu recuperar a Núvol.Finalment, tornem a la redacció amb el crític de cinema Agus Izquierdo amb el consultori podcaster per conèixer la dieta informativa cultural dels convidats que passen per aquest programa.I ens acomiadem amb la lectura del conte 'Rosalia', de Xavier Padrissa, llegit per l'actriu Berta Giraut.

In the past year, triangular love stories have loomed large in cinema - Past Lives, Challengers and Passages all had different angles on the spiky geometry of three-cornered relationships. Since Casablanca, these complicated love affairs have fascinated filmmakers and audiences alike. They can be the subject of romantic comedies, at the centre of a melodrama or the motive for murder in a thriller - the relationships can be gay or straight and the budgets big or small.Jean Luc Godard's iconic new wave robbery tale Bande à part is 60 this year. It seems that each generation has its iconic love triangle movie - The Philadelphia Story, Sabrina, The Graduate, Blood Simple, Y Tu Mama Tambien, The Notebook and My Best Friend's Wedding - the films could not be more different but the dynamics are always rich and provocative. Mark Kermode and Ellen E Jones ask where love triangles have taken us over the years and how they reflect the sexual politics of the times.Guest interviews include Ira Sachs, director of the acclaimed Passages, and writer and critic Anne Billson.Producer: Tom Whalley A Prospect Street production for BBC Radio 4

Veteran independent filmmaker Ira Sachs is known for a body of work marked by beauty, nuance, and intimate portrayals of people and their emotional lives. He is driven, he says, by a deep curiosity about freedom and its limits - both in his characters and in filmmaking itself. This is part of the reason why Taxi Zum Klo (Taxi to the Toilet), a radical portrait of personal and sexual freedom, blew his mind. The semi-autobiographical story of writer/director/star Frank Ripploh takes us into his separate lives - devoted school teacher by day and enthusiastic cruiser of Berlin's gay scene by night. Explicit and bold, it was hailed by the Village Voice as “the first masterpiece about the mainstream of male gay life,” when it premiered in the early 1980's. We learn how Ira discovered the film, despite the fact that it's nearly impossible to find today, and how it inspires him to push the boundaries of his own work. Plus, Cooper shares his experience seeing Taxi Zum Klo when it played the New York Film Festival in 1981, and Tabitha dives into questions about the value of art as a provocation. Hosted on Acast.

Kelsi and Trey explore the complex power dynamics of Yorgos Lanthimos' Poor Things and Ira Sachs' Passages. We begin our conversation by discussing our complicated relationship to the Emma Stone odyssey and end with the self-destructive Franz Rogowski love triangle.

On this episode, I spoke to the writer and director of Passages, IRA SACHS. Passages, one of my favorite films of 2023, stars Franz Rogowski, Ben Whishaw and Adèle Exarchopoulos It's a movie that I'm relishing as an adult, and yearned for as a kid. I can imagine some queer teenager telling their mom they were seeing the latest latest summer blockbuster, only to actually be sneaking into this hyper-fluid world. At least… that's what I would have done. I got to talk to Sachs about that exact feeling while watching Passages, an honor and privilege I won't soon forget. Other films from Sachs include Frankie, Little Men (Grand Prix, 2016 Deauville American Film Festival), Love is Strange, Keep the Lights On (Teddy Award, 2012 Berlinale), Forty Shades of Blue (Dramatic Grand Jury Prize, 2005 Sundance) and his first feature, The Delta.

This episode kicks ass. Today we discuss the latest Fort Worth Film Club screening, 'You Won't Be Alone.' along with Goran Stolevski's follow-up film, 'Of an Age.' We also take a look at 'Passages' the new Ira Sachs' film starring Franz Rogowski, Ben Wishaw, and Adele Exarchopolous. Among other things, Jason expresses his affinity for novelty rap made for movies and performed by Oscar winners. This episode is worth every penny. Next time we're digging into 'Killers of the Flower Moon,' 'Anatomy of a Fall,' and 'Dry Ground Burning.'     Keep in touch and read more at whydoesthewilhelmscream.com on instagram @whydoesthewilhelmpod and twitter @whywilhelm Find out more about upcoming Fort Worth Film Club screenings and events at fortworthfilmclub.com and @fortworthfilm Support the next generation of film lovers at reelhousefoundation.org and on facebook reelhousefoundation Artwork by @_mosla_

We discuss the new film 'Passages' by Ira Sachs. We geek out a little/a lot about Franz Rogowski and all the performances, the differences between European and American movies. Then we do a little analysis of Ingmar Bergmans 'After the Rehearsal'. Then we get into the real meat of the episode... Do actors play the role of societies designated bisexuals? And do all leading men need a little heir of bisexuality to succeed?

Why are more people not celebrating Ira Sachs? That question led to this episode where we reflect on a truly independent filmmaker who has worked with many recognisable faces (such as Pierce Brosnan, John Lithgow, Rachel McAdams and Ben Whishaw) yet has never quite had his moment in the limelight himself. Ira has carved out his own brand of storytelling with films such as Married Life (2007), Keep the Lights On (2012), Love Is Strange (2014) and Passages (2023). It's a fascinating filmography and we can't wait for more. Join us as we reflect on Ira's film career and dream about this future projects... Follow us on social media to stay updated!

El plato fuerte internacional llega con la tercera entrega y broche final de la franquicia protagonizada por Denzel Washington y dirigida por Antoine Fuqua: ‘The Equalizer 3‘. Una historia llena de acción en la que el protagonista en esta ocasión se desplaza al sur de Italia para enfrentarse a la mafia. Con Ángeles González Sinde comentamos Passages, la última película de Ira Sachs protagonizada por un elenco formado por Ben Whishaw (‘El perfume’), y Franz Rogowsk (‘Ondina’) y Adèle Exarchopoulos (‘La vida de Adèle’). Una cinta con un cierto toque autobiográfico sobre las relaciones de poder y las consecuencias de la infidelidad. Completamos el resto de la cartelera con el drama ‘Notas sobre un verano' la película asturiana, dirigida por Diego Llorente y protagonizada por la también asturiana Katia Borlado, una película sobre la pasión, el amor y una generación que ha tenido que buscarse la vida fuera de su tierra natal. ‘Marco Polo‘ el debut en el largo de Pablo Riesgo. Una cinta basada en sus propias experiencias con un toque de comedia negra. Comentaremos y hablaremos con sus directores de la propuesta de animación de la semana ‘Me he tragado un extraterrestre' y no nos olvidamos de la película de aventuras ‘La guerra de los Lulus ‘, además de la sorpresa de la Berlinale ‘Memoryland‘. Todo esto además de las secciones habituales. Escuchar audio

This week's Empire Podcast sees the arrival of Chris Hewitt's pre-beloved The Equalizer 3, and that film's director, the delightfully sweary Antoine Fuqua, joins Chris to talk about that film, about the challenges of getting Denzel Washington to ride a horse (not for this film), and ultra-violence on the big screen. With blood and gore already covered off, our other guest, Passages writer/director Ira Sachs, talks about the challenges of shooting sex scenes, and battling censorship, for his new film, which sees Franz Rogowski, Ben Whishaw, and Adele Exarchopoulos engage in a love triangle. Then, in the podbooth, Chris is joined for a raucous episode by Helen O'Hara and James Dyer and, making her debut in the fourth chair, Australian author and massive geek Maria Lewis. She tells us all about her encounters with a brown snake, her upcoming book The Graveyard Shift, and chats with the podteam about their favourite numerical system when it comes to sequels and franchises, the week's movie news (such as it is), and even chips in during the reviews section, when the team take a look at The Equalizer 3, Cobweb, Passages, Vacation Friends 2 and You Are So Not Invited To My Bat Mitzvah. Oh, and the presence of an Australian in the podbooth can mean only one thing: hold onto your ears, the Aussie accents are coming out. Fair dinkum. Enjoy.

This week, Dana is joined by Slate's books and culture columnist, Laura Miller, and senior editor Rebecca Onion (who are filling in for Julia and Stephen). The panel begins by unraveling Passages, the sexy but also, at times, repelling feature from director Ira Sachs about a complicated love triangle. The film received a controversial NC-17 rating from the Motion Picture Association. Then, they head to Detroit to discuss Justified: City Primeval, FX's revival of the Raylan Givens cult classic that ran for six seasons. Finally, the three consider Michael Oher's recent legal allegation that the Tuohy family (immortalized in the 2009 Oscar-winning movie The Blind Side) never really adopted him but instead, placed him in a conservatorship. It's a scandal at the fascinating convergence of exploitation, fame, race, and adoption.  In the exclusive Slate Plus segment, the panel examines nature writing and their relationship to the form, inspired by Jonathan Franzen's essay for The New Yorker, “The Problem with Nature Writing.”  Email us at culturefest@slate.com.  Endorsements: Laura: Her quest for a new detective series (that isn't stupid or cliché) is over: Laura endorses Deadloch, a Prime Video comedy set in Tasmania that's equal parts genuine mystery and delicious social satire.  Rebecca: Anya Liftig's memoir, Holler Rat, beautifully recounts her upbringing where she often felt caught between two worlds: the comfortable, upper-middle-class life in Connecticut where she lived, and the summers spent in Appalachia, her mother's home.  Dana: A behind-the-scenes video for, what could potentially be the song of the summer, “I'm Just Ken” has just been released. In it, we see Ryan Gosling rehearsing and cameos from Greta Gerwig, Simu Liu and co-writer Mark Ronson, and it's just super fun.  Outro music: “I Want a Change” by The Big Let Down.  Podcast production by Cameron Drews.

Ira Sachs' new PASSAGES centers on a relationship broadly similar to the one at the center of SUNDAY BLOODY SUNDAY, but approaches it with a different level of intimacy and intensity (one that earned it an NC-17 rating before the filmmakers opted to release it unrated). We're joined once again by freelance critic and friend of the show Noel Murray to talk through the different points of characterization and performance on PASSAGES' love triangle, before looking at how the two films compare and contrast in their critiques of hetero-monogamous normativity, their ideas about suppressed jealousy and art, and their frank, arguably “graphic” depictions of homosexual desire. And in Your Next Picture Show, we offer a mini-revisitation of another John Schlesinger film that is impossible to avoid when considering this pairing.  Please share your comments, thoughts, and questions about SUNDAY BLOODY SUNDAY, PASSAGES, or anything else in the world of film, by sending an email to comments@nextpictureshow.net, or leaving a short voicemail at (773) 234-9730.

Ira Sachs' new PASSAGES is treading ground that was broken in part by John Schlesinger's 1971 British drama SUNDAY BLOODY SUNDAY, which also concerns the tortured intimacies of an MMF love triangle, albeit with a bit more reserve. We're joined by freelance critic and friend of the show Noel Murray to talk over our responses to that reserved approach in relation to SUNDAY BLOODY SUNDAY as a product of its era and as a counterpoint to Schlesinger's previous film, MIDNIGHT COWBOY; how this portrayal of a love triangle balances desperation and dignity; and whether this movie actively hates kids, or if the Hodson children serve a greater thematic purpose. Then we reopen the BARBIE discussion with the help of a couple of listener comments in Feedback.

This week we're excited to present a conversation with director Ira Sachs, whose new film, Passages, is currently playing in our theaters. A masterful work of psychosexual intensity, the newest film from Ira Sachs offers one of the director's most cutting variations on desire and intimacy. Co-written by author and longtime collaborator Mauricio Zacharias, Passages follows Tomas (Franz Rogowski), a mercurial German filmmaker living in Paris whose commitment to his husband, Martin (Ben Whishaw), falls short when he pursues a dalliance with a young schoolteacher, Agathe (Adèle Exarchopoulos). Martin begins his own affair soon after, while Tomas swings between both relationships and unleashes a reckless succession of breakups and makeups. With fearless performances from Rogowski, Whishaw, and Exarchopoulos, Sachs crafts a cinematic rarity in which the white-hot pleasures and compulsions of a particularly dysfunctional amour fou are kept on par with ferocious honesty. This conversation was moderated by film critic, Esther Zuckerman.

(Mini) Episode #24 On this special episode of the Cine-Cast, co-managing editor Kat Sachs interviews filmmaker Ira Sachs in advance of his new film, PASSAGES, opening at the Music Box Theatre. The introductory theme is by local film composer Ben Van Vlissingen.

Directed by Ira Sachs, Passages follows the exploits of Tomas (Franz Rogowski), a filmmaker whose marriage to Martin (Ben Whishaw) is struggling. After his latest feature wraps, Tomas encounters Agathe (Adele Exarchopoulos), a stunning young schoolteacher that immediately charms him. After a night of passion together, Tomas finds himself eager to explore the potential of this new sexual relationship, sending shockwaves into his marriage. But when Martin begins to find love in the arms of another man, Tomas is the one who feels spurned and begins to re-pursue is husband. In this 1on1, we speak to Sachs about what it means to be happy and whether or not we can ever 'know' another person.

The writer and director discusses his provocative new movie, the hurdle of its NC-17 rating, and how seeing 197 movies over the course of three months changes his life.

On this special episode of The Letterboxd Show, Mitchell Beaupre speaks with filmmaker Ira Sachs about his latest feature Passages, in theaters worldwide now from MUBI. This delicious love triangle follows Tomas (Franz Rogowski), a narcissistic filmmaker whose marriage to Martin (Ben Whishaw) hits the rocks when Tomas starts up an affair with Agathe (Adèle Exarchopoulos). Mitchell and Ira give you a taste of what to expect in Passages, a self-described “very horny film,” while diving deep into some of Ira's personal favorites, including Dodsworth, The Innocent, Taxi Zum Klo and Je, Tu, Il, Elle. Note: this interview was conducted as the WGA and SAG-AFTRA unions are on strike for better working conditions and fairer compensation for their work. Passages was an entirely independent production, shot in Europe with European actors, and is being released by an independent distributor that is isn't in the AMPTP, and therefore is not a struck company. We will never ask anyone to cross a picket line.

"Let's just say I wanted to make a liberated film. I felt like...am I allowed to say 'f*** it?' Like, 'f*** it.'" So says legendary indie filmmaker Ira Sachs about PASSAGES, his seriously sexy Sundance hit about an insatiable artist in a messy modern love triangle.In this special episode, Sachs tells host Rico Gagliano how his all-star cast (Ben Whishaw, Franz Rogowski, and Adele Exarchopoulos) liberated their characters, and why he and Hollywood are on the outs.PASSAGES opens in theaters on August 4 in New York and Los Angeles and arrives in cities nationwide throughout August.

Ira Sachs visits the pod to talk about his new film Passages, in which the marriage of a gay couple (Franz Rogowski & Ben Whishaw) is thrown into disarray when one of them begins a passionate affair with a woman (Adèle Exarchopoulos). The stylish, sexy drama is one of the hottest films of the summer, not least for its expert direction and impeccable cast. Sachs talks to Screen Slate's Jon Dieringer about mentorship, his strategy of not rehearsing with actors, the influential films on his cinematic “cheat sheet,” censorship, and filming heated love scenes.Support the showThe Screen Slate Podcast is supported by its Patreon members.

If you're a follower of contemporary world cinema, chances are, you're a fan of Franz Rogowski. Known for his distinctive screen presence and extraordinary physicality, the German actor has blazed a trail through some of the most well-regarded movies of the last few years, including Michel Haneke's Happy End, Christian Petzold's Transit and Undine, Terrence Malick's A Hidden Life, Angela Schanelec's I Was At Home, But…, to name only a few. His latest role is as the lead in Passages, a new film by Ira Sachs. Rogowski stars Tomas, a diva-esque filmmaker and very indecisive queer man, who vacillates erratically between his husband, played by Ben Whishaw, and a new love interest, played by Adele Exarchopoulos. It's a role of chaotic contradictions that seems made for Rogowski: Tomas is self-absorbed, brilliant, repulsive, sexy, vulnerable, and malicious all at once—and Rogowski brings to him a truly unselfconscious, combustible sense of humanity. For today's episode, Film Comment co-editor Devika Girish called up Rogowski on Zoom to chat about his inspirations as an actor and how he crafted his firecracker performance in Passages. Please note that because Rogowski is not a member of SAG-AFTRA, he is not currently on strike.

Ahead of this week's release of Ira Sachs' Passages, we're discussing perhaps Sachs' most lauded film, 2014's Love is Strange. The film stars John Lithgow and Alfred Molina as a newly married couple forced to live apart in New York City when one of them is fired from his Catholic school job for being gay. … Continue reading "249 – Love is Strange"
