"Tornado" is the latest film from director John Maclean, who previously directed "Slow West" a decade ago. The western film follows Tornado (Kōki), a young woman who vows to seek vengeance for her father against a notorious gang and forge her own destiny by stealing their ill-gotten gold. The film additionally stars Tim Roth, Jack Lowden, Takehiro Hira, and Joanne Whalley and received positive reviews after its world premiere at the 2025 Glasgow Film Festival.

Un luogo in cui le parole possono essere letali quanto le pallottole, il progresso una minaccia e la Morte una garanzia. Uno scenario di atti crudeli ma anche di nobili gesti. Questo e molto di più è il Western cinematografico. Godiamocelo! Non è certamente facile rinnovare un genere cinematografico così longevo e importante come il Western. Ma nemmeno impossibile e negli ultimi anni ci sono stati registi e autori che hanno voluto offrire la loro personale visione del mito della frontiera. Tra i titoli più originali c'è sicuramente il breve ma affascinante film di John Maclean "Slow West", una sorta di crudele e visionaria fiaba popolata da cowboy malinconici, assassini filosofi e giovani ancora troppo ingenui riguardo la vita e la follia dell'esistenza umana.
Heiko und Marco haben wieder ein Double-Feature eingeplant - doch bei der Umsetzung zeigt sich die Filmkammer des Schreckens mal wieder von ihrer garstigsten Seite, denn die Filme der heutigen Folge sorgen für Streit und Enttäuschung! Im britischen Horrorfilm "The Appointment" (1981) gerät ein Geschäftsmann unter den Bann einer unsichtbaren, bösen, übernatürlichen Macht, und unheimliche Vorahnungen plagen ihn und seine Familie. Was braut sich da zusammen? Gesichtet als britische Blu-Ray von BFI. Im italienischen Horrorfilm "Maya" (1989) erwacht eine unsichtbare, böse, übernatürliche Macht in einem alten alten mexikanischen Tempel und macht sich auf, unsympathische Menschen zu dezimieren. Was eigentlich ganz praktisch klingt, wird für den Zuschauer zur Geduldsprobe! Gesichtet als US Blu-Ray von Vinegar Syndrome. außerdem gesichtet: Light Sleeper, Das erste Omen, Gray Lady Down, The Seven Ups, Violent City, Mister Majestic, The Getaway, X-Men Apocalypse, 65, Marooned, Slow West, The Most Dangerous Game, Unterstützt uns mit einer Spende oder werdet Mitglied in der Filmkammer des Schreckens! https://ko-fi.com/filmkammer Weitere Links zu unseren Websites und Social Media https://linktr.ee/filmkammer Emails könnt ihr uns an filmkammer@buddelfisch.de senden Hört die Filmkammer überall wo es Podcasts gibt!

Interview with Jed Kurzel This week on Sync Music Matters I'm talking to Australian singer-songwriter, guitarist and film composer Jed Kurzel Jed originally started out as the singer and frontman of the blues rock duo The Mess Hall before turning his attention to composing for film. He won the Screen Music Awards Film Score of The Year for his debut film Snowtown. The film which gained international recognition, explores the relationships between the murderous gang members behind a spate of killings in Adelaide, Australia in the 1990s Jed has since gone on to score feature films like The Pope's Exorcist, The Babadook, Slow West and Macbeth to name but a few. In this interview with Jed Kurzel we chat about his childhood obsession with sport and somewhat unplanned foray into scoring film. Listen to Jed Kurzel on Spotify

To wrap up our Westerns 101 series, Alex and Jonathan take a look at the current state of the western genre through Rango (2011), Slow West (2015), and Hell or High Water (2016). We talk about ways to take the tropes of an established genre and exaggerate them for comedic effect, how to take the setting of the west and present a story with modern sensibilities, and how the themes of the classic west can be transposed on the modern day. Skip to: (11:40) – Rango (35:00) – Slow West (51:03) – Hell or High Water (1:11:52) – Overall (1:25:14) – Coming Attractions Coming Attractions: After a break in June we'll be back in July with Pinocchio (1940) Pinocchio (2019) Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio (2022) For more information, visit the blog:https://thefilmlings.wordpress.com/2023/05/24/modern-west Join us on Discord for ongoing film discussion:https://discord.gg/MAF6jh59cF
A huge portion of the modern idea of what a western is can be traced back to an Italian director with an appreciation for samurai films, Sergio Leone. Today Alex and Jonathan look at his influence on the spaghetti western sub-genre with For a Few Dollars More (1965), Once Upon a Time in the West (1968), Duck, You Sucker! (1971). We discuss how Leone uses backstory and pacing to build tension, the specific tropes and identifiers of the spaghetti westerns, and the increasing scale of the themes that underlie the common elements. Skip to: (21:18) – For a Few Dollars More (47:21) – Once Upon a Time in the West (1:04:38) – Duck, You Sucker!

Listen to inspiring conversations about composition and hear works from Emmy, Grammy, and Oscar-winning film scores on the show. LUCY BRIGHT: Lucy Bright started out at Mute Records working with artists such as Nick Cave and Depeche Mode, before moving to Warner Classics for six years and then leaving to manage composer Michael Nyman. She joined the film and TV department of publisher Music Sales (now Wise Music) in 2008 and worked there for a decade. In 2020 she launched her own music publishing company, Bright Notion Music, signing the composers like Anne Nikitin, Jed Kurzel and Tamar-kali Brown. Lucy has supervised some of the most critically-acclaimed British films and TV shows in recent years including The Unloved, The Arbor, Slow West, Southcliffe, McMafia, This is England ‘90, Daphne, The Virtues, The Nest, Life After Life and BAFTA-winning short The Swimmer. Most recently, she has worked on Charlotte Wells' directorial debut AFTERSUN and Todd Field's TÁR, set within the world of classical music in which Cate Blanchett plays the first female conductor of a German orchestra. VOLKER BERTELMANN: Volker Bertelmann is an internationally acclaimed pianist, composer and experimental musician. His score for Garth Davis' Oscar-nominated film Lion, which he composed in collaboration with Dustin O'Halloran, and was nominated for multiple awards, including the 2016 Oscar for Best Original Score, the 2016 Golden Globes for Best Original Score, and Best Film Music at the 2016 British Academy Film Awards, or BAFTAs.

In 2022, he scored All Quiet on the Western Front for Netflix, the official Oscar-entry for Germany, and War Sailor, both of which were official selections at the Toronto International Film Festival. A uniquely innovative pianist, who in his solo work goes by the name Hauschka, Bertelmann has worked with, among others. the MDR Leipzig Radio Symphony Orchestra, where he was the artist in residence, and the Grammy-winning violinist Hilary Hahn. In 2018, he accepted an invitation to join the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.
Slow West was a 2015 A24 Western film written and directed by punk rock star John Maclean. Taking place in 1870 Colorado, young Jay Cavandish (played by Kodi Smit-Mcphee) treks into the wild wild west with help from a bounty hunter named Silas (played by Michael Fassbender) to find an unrequited love from his homeland of Scotland. On the way, he encounters all the dangers and thrills of the anarchy of the Rocky Mountains. The A24 Rocks gang discusses the screenwriting, directing, and costume design of the film while also debating who they would've been if they had lived in the U.S. in 1870. Slow West was critically-acclaimed and even won an award at the Sundance Film Festival, but does this outlaw gang of film reviewers agree with the critics? Tune in to find out.

This week, my guest is music supervisor Lucy Bright. Lucy started out at Mute Records working with artists such as Nick Cave and Depeche Mode, before moving to Warner Classics for six years and then leaving to manage composer Michael Nyman. She joined the film and TV department of publisher Music Sales (now Wise Music) in 2008 and worked there for a decade.

Most recently, she has worked on two forthcoming films: Charlotte Wells' directorial debut AFTERSUN, which is showing at this year's London Film Festival and then coming to UK cinemas via MUBI on 18th November, and I can testify it has a truly phenomenal soundtrack and Todd Field's TÁR, set within the world of classical music in which Cate Blanchett plays the first female conductor of a German orchestra.It recently premiered to critical acclaim at the Venice Film Festival and is one of my most hotly anticipated films of the year. We spoke about how Lucy got her start in the music industry and then gradually discovered the role of music supervision, getting her first credit as a music supervisor on Samantha Morton's TV film THE UNLOVED, how she collaborates with directors and other HoDs to build a soundtrack, why certain songs cost more than others, how needle drops happen and what song she is particularly proud of clearing for use in a film…

On this episode Mike and Pax discuss Slow West from 2015 starring Michael Fassbender, Kodi Smit-Macphee, and Ben Mendelsohn.
This week's interview was a real treat to record. Sam Joly, my guest, radiates joy and positivity, but what I got from this chat is the sense that that's a choice and one that sometimes takes work and so I hope you come away from it with a smile, but also a sense of how you can celebrate your personal achievements and maybe make that choice too. Sam is Head of Marketing and Publicity at the film and television production house See-Saw Films. These are the folks that made The King's Speech, Lion, Widows, Macbeth, Ammonite, Slow West, Top of the Lake, State of the Union and more recently Jane Campion's ferocious gothic Western The Power of the Dog and Andrew Haigh's riveting TV series The North Water. Sam started her career in documentary television before joining See-Saw in 2011 where she worked her way up from assistant. We spoke about many things to do with marketing such as poster design, creating trailers, what good publicity actually looks like and how involved directors are, as well as several more broad topics such as mental health on film sets, how you can better value and advocate for yourself, and that time Sam produced a Steve McQueen-directed music video for Kanye West… This is episode 95 of Best Girl Grip. Show notes Watch Sam's film recommendation Little Woods or Crossing The Line by Nia DaCosta on Amazon Prime.

“Dīvāna kinozāles” epizodē savos filmu ieteikumos dalīsies kinokritiķi Dmitrijs Rancevs un Kristīne Simsone. Kinokritiķis Dmitrijs Rancevs pēdējā laikā pārskata režisores Kiras Muratovas filmas, kuru dēvē par izcilu meistari un norāda, ka viņas filmas ir vērts skatīties vēl un vēl. Mūsu sarunā Dmitrijs īpaši izceļ viņas 2004. gadā uzņemto filmu “Skaņotājs”. Filma “Skaņotājs”/ “Nastrojščik” saņēmusi gan Zelta Ērgļa, gan Nikas kinobalvas, gan Krievijas Kinokritiķu ģildes apbalvojumus. Aktrise Renāta Ļitvinova to piedāvā noskatīties savā YouTube kanālā. Nākamais Dmitrija Ranceva ieteikums: neovesterns “Lēnie rietumi” / “Slow West”. Sandensas kinfoestivāla Lielo Kritiķu balvu saņēmusī laikmeta drāma vēstī par 16gadīgu skotu jaunekli, kurš dodas bīstamā ceļojumā lai satiktu savu mīlestību, kura kopā ar tēvu bēguļo pa Mežonīgajiem rietumiem, jo abi ir nepatiesi apsūdzēti noziegumā. Ceļā jauneklis sastop tā vēl vienu “ārpus likuma esošu” klejotāju Maikla Fasbendera veidolā – viņš jauneklim piedāvā turpināt ceļu kopā. Trešā afiša “Dīvāna kinozāles” vitrīnā – režisora Aleksandra Hanta diplomdarbs, 2017. gadā absolvējot Viskrievijas kinematogrāfijas institūtu jeb VGIKu. Arī šeit nolasāms ceļa filmas jeb "road movie" žanrs, un vispirms jau izteiksmīgajā darba nosaukumā: “Kā Vitja Ķiploks Ļohu Dūrēju uz ivalīdu namu veda”. Galvenais varonis Vitja ir jauns vīrietis, kurš strādā mazpilsētas atkritumu pārstrādes uzņēmumā, kopā ar sievu cenšas audzināt dēliņu, bet pa īstam tomēr nespēj iekļauties normālā dzīvē – iespaidu uz viņa rīcību atstājuši 12 gadi pavadītie gadi bērnu namā, kur viņš bija spiests uzturēties pēc savas mātes pašnāvības. Pagriezienu stāstā veic viņa tēva piepešā parādīšanās. Cilvēcisko pārmaiņu stāstam Krievijas nomalē varat novērtēt, apmeklējot vietni kino-teatr.ru. Kinokritiķe Kristīne Simsone vēl arvien, pašas vārdiem, nēsā līdzi galvā rumāņu režisora Kristi Puju laikmeta drāmu “Malmkrogs”, kas veidota pēc krievu dzejnieka Vladimira Solovjova darba “Trīs sarunas par karu, morāli un reliģiju”. To bija iespējams skatīt Rīgas Starptautiskajā kinofestivālā pērn, un šobrīd tas izdarāms platformā MUBI.com. Vēl viens ieteikums no Kristīnes Simsones, kuru atrast platformā MUBI.com – tā dēvētā grieķu “weird wave” jeb “savādnieku viļņa” virziena redzamākā pārstāvja Jorga Lantima īsfilma “Mimic”. Kristīne te norāda uz zināmu līdzību ar Pjēra Paolo Pazolīni filmu “Teorēma” un tajā attīstīto Svešinieka tēlu, kura ierašanās izjauc pirms tam noteiktu un ierastu kārtību. Trešā filma atrodama Kino Bizes mājas kinoteātrī, vietnē kinobize.lv. 1953. gada filma “Stopotājs” jeb “Hitchiker” ir balstīta uz patiesiem notikumiem un stāsta par kādu sērijveida slepkavu, kurš ir nolaupījis un tur gūstā divus draugus, kuri devušies makšķerēt. Kristīne piebilst, ka šo mēdz uzskatīt par pirmo “film noir” filmu, kuru režisējusi sieviete, proti, Aida Lupino.
My guest this week is Parisa Taghizadeh - who goes by the name Tag - and she is a stills photographer for film and television. This is a job that I was so curious to find out more about - because stills are often the very first glimpse we get of a film. We might hear whose been cast or that production is underway, but when that photograph is released it’s our first visual of what that film might look and be like and so it’s a really important role. Tag has an extensive and varied career working with directors such as Jane Campion, Sally Potter, Michael Winterbottom, Edgar Wright and Steve McQueen on both studio and independent productions such as Top of the Lake, Killing Eve, Slow West, the Small Axe anthology and upcoming films Last Night in Soho and Last Letter from Your Lover. We talk about Tag’s career from art school to getting her “big break” in inverted commas, as well as the mechanics of the role and how she’s able to get those shots and why being both discreet and pushy are key traits on set.

Get ready for a trinity of existentialist absurdism... Yet again we managed to pick three movies that are weirdly similar: A masterful study of the many kinds of breakups we have to endure, by David Lowery, Charlie Kaufman's epic confusion and an A24 western that you have probably never heard of by John Mclean. An absolute tour de force.

Michael Fassbender and Ben Mendelsohn amp up ex-Beta Band, John Maclean's directoral debut. Good, if a little more mainstream and less transgressive or memorable than the raft of extremely dark modern westerns.
En este episodio seguimos con nuestro podcast de cine volcado hacia el streaming, esta vez en Netflix y Amazon Prime Video, y conversamos sobre “Good Will Hunting” (En Busca del Destino) de Gus Van Sant, “Slow West” de John Maclean y “Da 5 Bloods”, la nueva película de Spike Lee.
One of my rituals when I go to the cinema (remember the cinema? The place with the big screen where you sit in the dark next to lots of people and have a collective experience?) Well, when I go I like to sit through all the credits at the end because I'm always amazed at how many people it takes to make something that's 90 minutes long. It's such a vast network of vital, interconnecting people. And one of those vital people is a music supervisor. I like to think of them as a DJ or selector for a movie but of course it's far more complicated than that. Which is why I have on today's episode, Lucy Bright to tell us more about it.With a degree in History of Art, Lucy started out at Mute Records during her gap year Mute records represent the likes of Nick Cave, New Order, Depeche Mode, and Goldfrapp. She then moved to Warner Classics for six years before leaving to manage acclaimed composer Michael Nyman - he wrote the music for the Oscar winning film The Piano & The 2018 Alexander McQueen documentary amongst many others. She was at music publishing company Music Sales for 10 years overseeing an extraordinary roster of film composers including Gabriel Yared (Cold Mountain,The English Patient), Ludovico Einaudi, Philip Glass, Nico Muhly (The Reader), Hildur Guðnadóttir (the woman who won the Oscar and every award going this year for her scoring of Joker). This year Lucy is starting a new venture with the launch of her own music publishing company, Bright Notion Music.Lucy has music supervised some of the most critically-acclaimed British films of recent years: Samantha Morton's directorial debut The Unloved, Lynne Ramsey's The Swimmer, John Maclean's Slow West, Justin Kurzel's Assassin's Creed, Michael Almereyda's Marjorie Prime and Sean Durkin's The Nest starring Jude Law and Carrie Coon which premiered at Sundance Film Festival 2020. Her work in television is equally renowned including Southcliffe, McMafia and Shane Meadows's This is England ‘90 and The Virtues. She is currently working on TV drama Little Birds for Sky Atlantic and LIFE for BBC One (jointly with Catherine Grieves).We talk about her journey into music supervision, what inspires her, the role of a composer within the context of film, the under-representation of female composers in the film industry, and the lessons learned along the way.Guest: Lucy BrightTitle: The artist is the film director and you are there to serve their visionInstagram: @lightlightbrightAlbums/Artists on playlist: Bob Dylan Oh Mercy, Leonard Cohen, Memories from the album Death of a Ladies' Man and Rob Simonsen ReveriesTo support the podcast click here See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED 03/05/2020 Katie is back to talk about a movie from one of her favorite genres: a good old fashion Western. But does this movie hold up when compared to other modern Westerns? "Slow West" is the story of a young Scotsman in search of his lady love. Directed by John Maclean and starring Michael Fassbender, Ben Mendelsohn, and some kid named Kodi Smit-McPhee.
Jacob and Chris field a listener request and set out on a long journey to review John Maclean's Slow West. Does this Fassbender flick capture the spirit of the Western genre and score a direct hit? Or is it just left to bleed out on a dusty wooden floor? PLUS - The guys give their take on the girl with the metal cuffs in a micro-review of Wonder Woman.
