From MPR News, Art Hounds are members of the Minnesota arts community who look beyond their own work to highlight what's exciting in local art. Their recommendations are lightly edited from the audio heard in the player above. Want to be an Art Hound? Submit here. Click hereGrief without words Theatermaker Kurt Engh saw The Moving Company's performance of “SPEECHLESS” in 2017, and he's thrilled the show is back again. The show opens Friday and runs through Nov. 10 at the Jungle Theater in Minneapolis. As the name implies, the play is entirely without words, but the emotions run deep. Kurt explains: Someone passes away in the play, and that person is ironically or symbolically named Hope. I think it's intentionally left to be ambiguous. The play is about five people going through grief in this very melodramatic but real way, and they find that the only way forward is to support themselves, but also support each other. The play shows how people are able to support each other when they don't even know what to say, when they're so upset and they're so at a loss, truly, that they move forward through physical kindness to each other. The collaborators of this production have been working together for many years. They are my favorite theater company in the Twin Cities, and this was voted as a best play of the year in 2017 by the Star Tribune. There are performances on Wednesdays that are pay-as-you-are starting at $15.— Kurt EnghA smorgasbord of short films — or hot dish, if you will Rachel Coyne of Lindstrom is looking forward to seeing the Franconia 5 Minute Film Fest, a short film festival featuring works from Minnesota and Wisconsin artists. The top 15 judge-selected films will be screened at Franconia Sculpture Park this Saturday, Oct. 5 at 7 p.m. and at the Trylon Cinema in Minneapolis Thursday, Oct 10. The Franconia screening is free with a suggested $10 donation. Seating on benches is limited, so Rachel recommends bringing a blanket or lawn chairs. Rachel adds: There's a claymation artist, some live film, some animation. In the years in the past, when I've gone, you know, it's kind of like eating like a really pungent spice. You're just like, wow, that's an idea, and it hits you over the head, and then before you know it, you're onto the next film.Given that the filmmakers are all from Minnesota and Wisconsin, Rachel adjusts her metaphor: It's more hot dish. So there's peas, there's carrots, there's tater tots and there's probably even some mushroom soup in there. — Rachel CoyneDid you hear that classic Irish epic about the cow? Anna Maher is a classically trained singer and actor living in the Twin Cities, and she's glad that one of her favorite theater companies, Clevername Theatre, is remounting a fan-favorite from the 2022 Minnesota Fringe Festival. “Connor's gonna tell: The Tain Bo Cuailnge” is a one-person recounting of the “Táin Bó Cúailnge,” an old Irish epic tale about a cattle raid. See it at Bryant Lake Bowl & Theater in Minneapolis, Fridays, Oct. 4 and Oct. 11 at 7 p.m. and Sunday, Oct. 13 at 3 p.m. Anna says: It's kind of like the Irish Odyssey. It's an epic, and it chronicles a war that was waged between two factions, and then there's a hero. And the whole thing, the whole fight, revolves around a cow. And so, Connor will tell the story. He uses different voices. There are some different outfits that happen. There's a mask, there's a little bit of puppetry involved. And then he has a mandolin player who accompanies him for the entire show.” (Note: Anna Maher works for American Public Media Group, the parent company of MPR News.)— Anna Maher

Energy and climate issues play out across our society—in books and film, institutions of higher learning, our democracy, and in the very air we breathe. Once again, this July, Thursdays were Fresh Energy summer webinar series days! Many special guests joined Fresh Energy each Thursday for four fun and engaging discussions about the many facets of energy in our lives.  From science fiction to popular Hollywood films, energy and climate are part of the arts today. How accurate are these depictions, and can they spur action? Fresh Energy's Anjali Bains, lead director of energy access and equity, sat down with writer Naomi Kritzer, Olga Tchepikova-Treon with the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities' department of cultural studies, and artist Ben Weaver.  P.S. Want a taste of our electric future? Register to join us at the Fresh Frolic on August 24 at The Market at Malcolm Yards for an all-electric end-of-summer celebration! Meet the Panelists: Naomi Kritzer | she/her | Writer Naomi Kritzer has been writing science fiction and fantasy for over twenty years; her fiction has won the Hugo Award, the Lodestar Award, the Edgar Award, and the Minnesota Book Award. Her newest book is Chaos on CatNet, which is a sequel to Catfishing on CatNet, and is set in Minneapolis. She lives in St. Paul, Minnesota, with her spouse, two kids (when the college kid is home from college) and four cats. The number of cats is subject to change without notice. You can find Naomi online at naomikritzer.com or on Twitter as @naomikritzer. Olga Tchepikova-Treon | she/her | University of Minnesota, Twin Cities Olga Tchepikova-Treon is a doctoral candidate and graduate instructor in the UMN cultural studies department, where she is writing a dissertation on disability aesthetics in alternative film cultures. Currently finishing up a Fellowship at the Smithsonian American Art Museum and National Museum of American History, her ongoing research looks at the ways medical films are used in art cinema contexts. To Olga, teaching film as cultural and historical commentary is one of the best things about working in the university environment. Her favorite place in the Twin Cities is the Trylon Cinema, where she volunteers at the box office. Ben Weaver | Artist Ben is a poet, songwriter, letterpress printer/book maker, public speaker, and endurance cyclist. Ben creates work that breaks down the emotional and systemic structures separating humans from the ability to feel our connections to the greater web of life and each other. The songs and poems he writes and performs work to dispel illusions of division. They hold open space for the wisdom that sits within the trees, rivers, rocks, plants and animals to reignite the inherent stories of wildness and mutuality living inside us all. This webinar was made possible by Great River Energy (Gold Sponsor) and Sunrun (Bronze Sponsor).

Bob Rafelson's third film, THE KING OF MARVIN GARDENS, plays out differently than you may think. For the most part, it moves like series of disconnected examples, testing characters like David (Jack Nicholson) and Sally (Ellen Burstyn) as Jason (Bruce Dern), David's brother, leads them on a doomed plot through post-settling, pre-gambling Atlantic City to get rich quick by buying an island off the coast of Hawaii. David seems to know it's a farce, like everything Jason's tried for 30 years; Sally's given herself completely to Jason; and Jessica – Sally's stepdaughter – falls prey to Jason's charming, scheming sleight-of-hand. The moving parts among this small cohort – compacted by Lewis (Benjamin “Scatman” Crothers), the crime boss bearing down on Jason – create a pressure keg of hopes, dreams, myths, and the harsh realities that pierce through them all. In this episode, we break down how the structure and approach of THE KING OF MARVIN GARDENS helps it stand out, even if those same things can make it harder to find something to hold onto.

Kelly Krantz (https://twitter.com/kransekage_) is back to discuss a doozy of a movie: Iván Zulueta's enigmatic, career-ending, post-Franco, quasi-horror film ARREBATO (also known as RAPTURE)! ARREBATO focuses on Pedro and José, two filmmakers seduced by art, heroin, history, and each other. As the mystery behind Pedro's enigmatic naivete unravels – recurring “raptures” that maybe take Pedro out of his body when he watches film – José and his girlfriend Ana find themselves pulled closer and closer to the dark heart of his obsession. It's about the fulfilling, soul-sucking enterprise of doing… well, anything worth doing! It's also a movie about preserving and reliving moments forever and, in a world already full of moments to be experienced, the inherent pull of the pause.

We're getting both A) loosey and B) goosey on this episode covering a 35mm themed Trylon double-bill of teen comedy cult classics: DON'T TELL MOM THE BABYSITTER'S DEAD (1991) and ADVENTURES IN BABYSITTING (1987)! Tune in for a discussion of the conformist themes running through DON'T TELL MOM as well as the cutely naive, pretty problematic depictions of inner city Chicago in ADVENTURES!

We hope you've enjoyed our series on Kon at the ‘Lon! It was a dream to see these on the Trylon's screen and to add to the conversation on these underseen anime classics. Our series closes with MILLENNIUM ACTRESS, Kon's sophomore feature and co-winner – with SPIRITED AWAY (2001) – of the 2001 Grand Prize in the Japan Agency of Cultural Affairs Media Arts Festival. MILLENNIUM ACTRESS is a distillation of Satoshi Kon's most prominent themes: discovery of the self against the experiences of life, the roles those experiences shape you into, and the person you become on the other side. It's full of the late director's hallmarks: realities created, fictions that replace them, and a keen awareness of its audience. At the same time, it's an affecting love story that centers an aging actress, the world she grew up in and the ways it changed her, and the people who want to share her story through film.

In a body of work that defined a subgenre, Satoshi Kon's PAPRIKA is something like a culmination. His final feature film realizes some of his longest-brewing concepts (identity, community, connection, division, reality, fiction) so well that it leaves others feeling somewhat unfulfilled – like the director's own career after his death at just 46 years old. As certified Konheads, we discuss PAPRIKA's trippy aesthetics, conflation of the digital world with the subconscious, the film's problematic aspects and author self-insertion, and where the various subplots do (and don't) serve the movie's larger thesis.

Featuring special guest Finn Odum (https://twitter.com/Finnematic)! DIABOLIQUE's gothic vibes, feminist undertones, iconic imagery, and twist ending are all great ways to remember this psycho-sexual-horror-noir classic. A husband's murder by his wife and mistress goes off the rails, sending the killers spinning looking for an explanation when the body goes missing after the deed's been done. The twisting tale that follows calls into question nearly everyone's motives, leading to one of the best-remembered twist endings Hitchcock never directed. With Minneapolis writer and Trylon-teer Finn Odum, we remember it through its characters (both on-screen and off) and all the ways we wish this story would've ended.

Featuring special guest Seth Zarate (https://twitter.com/snzarate)! When three homeless people – aging dad Gin, trans self-exile Hana, and confused young Miyuki – discover an abandoned baby in the trash on Christmas, the stage is set to reunite the child with its real parents. Before that, however, the unlikely family learns more about each other through their threatened attempts to care for the child, including run-ins with gangs, meeting other colorful characters of the Tokyo streets, and even a miracle or two. Other Satoshi Kon films have more spectacular premises than TOKYO GODFATHERS, but it doesn't feel like it's missing anything. In this episode, we talk about what makes this movie equally as viable as PERFECT BLUE (1997) or PAPRIKA (2006), even if it doesn't have the same flash.

“Theft is good, actually.” – Cody FILIBUS is a 1915 Italian silent film directed by Mario Roncoroni and written by Giovanni Bertinetti. It features Valeria Creti as Baroness Troixmonde and the titular Filibus, an Italian sky pirate and infamous burglar. In an attempt to cast off suspicion after her recent heist of the International Bank, the baroness enters a competition to find the culprit and frame investigating detective Kutt-Hendy (played by Giovanni Spano) himself as Filibus. The film follows the pirate's exploits staging new crimes to pin on the detective while disguised as a young nobleman, using her wits and various gadgets to maintain stay just one step ahead of the investigator – all while courting his sister Leonora (played by Cristina Ruspoli) in disguise. FILIBUS is often cited as an early pioneer of feminist fiction as well as queer representation, cross-dressing, genderfluidity, and science fiction. It played at the Trylon and was accompanied by a live score by pianist Katie Condon and was shown with the assistance of the University of Minnesota's Imagine Fund as part of the Twin Cities Silent Film Project.

Cody's away, so we spend like 10 minutes talking about video games at the top of this episode. The last of Kurosawa's samurai epics, RAN recontextualizes King Lear, widening the scope of Shakespeare's text to show the effect of karma on the world, not just its tragic players. In this episode, we discuss what it's like to know this is one of the greatest films ever made while also knowing it's not the best Kurosawa movie; the personality of the spaces in RAN and other Kurosawa classics; and how the women of RAN are built to embody the karmic imbalance of Hidetora's lifelong warmongering.

Featuring special guest Natalie Marlin (https://twitter.com/NataliesNotInIt)! THE THIRD MAN is often cited as one of the greatest movies of all time, an expressionist noir that mixes style, form, and zeitgeist to paint postwar Vienna with sharp chiaroscuro that spotlights wanton interventionist masculinity and hides sinister motivations in the shadows. It is also an incredibly entertaining watch today, which makes its twists and turns fun to follow some 70 years after its release. With Natalie, we search the nooks and crannies of this classic tale with a take that considers the men at the center of the story, the place that plays stage to their game of cat and mouse, and the people who wish to call it home again.

Featuring special guest Peter Hogenson (https://twitter.com/phogenson)! Kurosawa's KAGEMUSHA – “shadow warrior” – is more than a tale of double identity. It's an examination of the politics of identity, who we become when we assume social positions, and the absurdities of class, all with a distinctly Kurosawa touch. For this episode, we're joined by filmmaker Peter Hogenson, whose experience with the craft of filmmaking has given him a whole new appreciation for its grandiosity, believability, and heart. He even helped us play one of the most insidious, devilish editions of Cody's Noteys to date, so stick around for the fun! Peter's “Life Underground: an LGBTQ film set in WW1 trenches” is currently in production.

Content warning: This episode contains a brief discussion of attempted suicide. Coming later in Kurosawa's career and after his storytelling was thought to have gone out of vogue, DERSU UZALA is a comment on man's relationship with nature, himself, and the world around him. Based on a Russian memoir and shot on 70mm, it's a beautiful example of the humanist narratives for which Kurosawa became known and a stunning exhibition of the world's natural splendor – both within and without the people who seek to know it.

Courtesy photo by Justin Vorndran "The Last Time 6" by Hilary Greenstein is among the works in the eight-artist exhibit at the Anderson Center in Red Wing, Minn. Most of us could use a dose of bright colors by this point in January. The bold palettes are what Heather Lawrenz of Red Wing Arts is seeking when “Vivid Survival” opens Friday. The eight-artist exhibit at the Anderson Center was curated by Lindsey Cherek Waller, who has a studio at the Anderson Center. The forms vary from giant paintings to wearable creations. The strong colors allow viewers to consider survival during the pandemic. There is a free artists' reception on opening night from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. The exhibit runs until March 26. Mary Fox of Renegade Theater Company in Duluth, Minn., says she was deeply affected by her visit to the “Like Me, Like You” exhibit at the Duluth Art Institute. The Twin Ports Asian Pacific Islander Desi American (APIDA) Collective mounted the exhibit. Fox loves the way the show opens, with APIDA's logo of a golden rice stalk transformed into a 3D sculpture strung with origami. The show is a “cultural explosion [of] voices of Asian Americans and their lived experiences,” said Fox. Photography gives way to poetry printed on a bright yellow wall, set alongside handmade clothing, film, podcasts, and painting. At the end, visitors can write their takeaways on a ribbon and tie it to a tree. “Like Me, Like You” is free and runs through the end of March. Film publicist Peter Schilling of the Heights Theater plans to head to the Trylon Cinema in Minneapolis Friday for an action film from 1915 that's getting new life with local music. He describes the “Filibus: the Mysterious Air Pirate” as a film about an elegant baroness who dresses as a man and lowers herself from an iron dirigible into Italian Riviera mansions to steal their valuables. While the special effects may appear primitive to an audience more than a century later, Schilling says early cinema magic creates a visceral experience. Pianist Katie Condon performs her original score to accompany the film at each of the four showings. The screenings were organized by University of Minnesota cultural studies professor and author Maggie Hennefeld. The show runs Friday and Saturday at 7 p.m. and Sunday at 3 p.m. and 5 p.m. Masks and proof of COVID-19 vaccination are required. Correction (Jan. 28, 2022): A previous version of this story called "Filibus: the Mysterious Air Pirate" a black-and-white film. The story has been corrected.

Based on Patricia Highsmith's novel, “The Talented Mr. Ripley,” PURPLE NOON conducts itself naturally as it winds along the Italian coastline and within the exploits of the titular Tom Ripley, a low-class jack-of-all-trades tasked with fetching the tactless dauphin Mr. Philippe Greenleaf. Greenleaf, made from money he didn't earn, has the life Tom wants. Not just the money: The existence. The status. The stature. The lack of burden. The life. Tom's plot to assume and absorb Greenleaf's very being starts with murder and only gets more sordid from there. In this episode, we discuss how Tom's own aspirations square against his violent behavior toward the bourgeoisie, how the movie contrasts Tom to his environment, and what it takes to live the good life – even when it's not yours.

Here's a special bonus episode for y'all – a wonderfully frank discussion with Jonathan Hertzberg, founder of boutique repertory film label Fun City Editions (and its self-proclaimed one-man-show). Two of the films he helped re-release were screened at the Trylon in January 2022: WALKING THE EDGE (1983) and RADIO ON (1979). With Jonathan, we dive into the freedom of running his own label after working in Kino Lorber's theatrical distribution, what it takes to sell a movie nobody's ever heard of, and the comfort of knowing there's always an audience for something. - Pre-order Fun City Editions's January 2022 release, a 2K Blu-ray restoration of Lynn Ramsay's MORVERN CALLAR (2002), here: https://vinegarsyndrome.com/collections/frontpage-partner-labels/products/morvern-callar-fun-city-editions - Learn more about Fun City Editions and browse the catalog on their website: https://www.funcityeditions.com/ - Shop Fun City Editions releases and merch through Vinegar Syndrome: https://vinegarsyndrome.com/collections/fun-city-editions - Follow Fun City Editions on Twitter at https://twitter.com/FunCityEdition Special thanks to John Moret, film programmer at the Trylon Cinema, for connecting us with Jonathan.

A Wes Anderson double-header to close out Season 5 of Film Trace. Chris and I return to our roots as teenage film nerds. Wes Anderson was our first love as budding cinephiles, and despite the tumultuous last 20 years (Darjeeling anyone), we still get a jolt of excitement with every new Anderson film. The French Dispatch is Anderson's first portmanteau film, and the results are whimsically mixed as expected. We also cover one of Wes's best films, The Royal Tenenbaums as it hits the 20-year mark. The snowglobe world of Royal has aged incredibly well. It is a rich literary yarn woven of the finest pure cinema fibre, dyed millennial pink of course. Joining us for the Season 5 Finale is Harry from the Trylove podcast, an awesome podcast dedicated to the wonderful The Trylon Cinema in Minneapolis.

Featuring Trylon film programmer John Moret! The Trylon Cinema (née "Microcinema") celebrates its 10th birthday this month with a day-long surprise movie marathon. Trylon film programmer John Moret calls it a rare "ritual space" – perhaps the only one in the Midwest – that celebrates the act of GOING to the movies rather than just SEEING one. For this episode, we were thrilled to welcome John in to chat about the origins of the Trylon, how he chooses movies, how the Trylon balances the desire to show obscure films with the need to make money, and many more incredible insights into what makes the Trylon experience so special.

Forget what you heard about FARGO (1996): BARTON FINK is actually the Coens' most autobiographical movie. Telling the bizarre odyssey of self-righteous playwright-turned-Hollywood screenwriter Barton Fink, the film was scripted during a bout of writer's block while making MILLER'S CROSSING (1990) – and counting the rings of this script, that adds up. It indicts Barton himself (no small feat in a movie where John Goodman does what he does in this one) by questioning any writer's ability, intent, and responsibility to write for "the common man". This episode is the sixth and final in our short series on a selection of Coen Brothers films screened at the Trylon Cinema in 2019. Theme: "Raindrops" by Huma-Huma/"No Smoking" PSA by John Waters.

The Coen Brothers' 2009 existential dramedy A SERIOUS MAN trades on their Jewish upbringing to paint a larger picture about the voices that take over amid the inescapable silence of organized religion. As Harry says, it's a movie about "paying more attention to the people in your life." With eternal suffering the only constant in human existence, inaction is a recurring motif – the line, "I didn't do anything!" is meant in a different way each time it's spoken – as an increasingly untenable excuse in the woebegone life of St. Louis Park physics professor and cuckolded family man Larry Gopnik. This episode is the fifth in a short series on a selection of Coen Brothers films screened at the Trylon Cinema in 2019. Theme: "Raindrops" by Huma-Huma/"No Smoking" PSA by John Waters.

Featuring special guest Eric Leith! In Tom Reagan's gritty gangster world, caring is a quick way to get yourself shot. It's too bad, then, that he cares very much about Leo O'Bannon, his Irish mob boss, and Verna Bernbaum, the woman they both think they love. When Verna's brother runs afoul of the rival Italian mafia, Tom is forced to reconcile the charge of his position, his loyalty to Leo, and the pain in his heart. "What heart?"

Featuring special guest Eric Leith! Aren't we all H.I. "Hi" McDunnough, trying to prove to ourselves and those we care about that we can change despite all odds? Fighting against the ghosts of our past while squaring with the geist of our present, occasionally scraping our knuckles on the popcorn ceiling of prescriptive social rhetoric? And whom among us can claim to not be former cop Edwina "Ed" McDunnough, whose career and lifestyle ambitions seem increasingly at odds with the realities afforded to her in the shadow of late stage capitalism? It's a comedy. This episode is the third in a short series on a selection of Coen Brothers films screened at the Trylon Cinema in 2019.

CW: Discussions of suicide as plot. Listening advisement: Harry's track ended up sounding bad. Sorry. While watching THE MAN WHO WASN'T THERE, it's easy to see why it's one of the Coen Brothers' relatively overlooked films: nested between box office smashes O BROTHER, WHERE ART THOU? (2000) and INTOLERABLE CRUELTY (2003), it failed to break even on its modest budget and has become a cult classic in a filmography full of cult classics. From its period setting to its black-and-white presentation to its Camus-like reckoning with the absurd, it also sometimes feels like it purposefully evades scrutiny. That didn't stop us!

Featuring special guest and honorary Minnesotan Emily Csuy! FARGO is probably a non-Minnesotan's first impression of Minnesotans, but how essentially Minnesotan is it? Why is it set here, and what does that choice reveal about the Coen Brothers' attitude toward their home state? How often does a Minnesotan actually say "you betcha"? Is FARGO secretly a case study for the Second Noble Truth of Buddhism? Now, you know, none of us are scholars of Eastern religion, but all of us live in Minnesota, so we thought we'd give these questions a try anyhow. Real good, then.

Right down to the unexpectedly explosive climax!Join us as we look at the auteurism of '70s cinema, discuss the value of Rotten Tomatoes, talk rooting for Dirty Harry, explore the Variety archives, John talks the post-Vietnam American crossroads, Aaron pitches a Bud Cort double feature, and we reveal the existence of the real travelling executioner himself, Jimmy "Dr. Zogg" Thompson!This show could easily be described as "tone-deaf to its own ridiculousness"!
