Podcasts about valerie and her week of wonders

In the twenty-second episode of Season 7 (Fantastical Realities) Kyle is joined by editor/script supervisor Katy Baldwin and novelist Samuel Cullado to discuss the Czech New Wave non-linear fairy tale from Jaromil Jireš, the folk dreamscape of emerging womanhood that is Valerie and Her Week of Wonders (1970).

Improvisor Ronnita L. Miller joins us to repeatedly say things that are so insightful we just sorta think for 20 seconds and then say "I agree." Timestamps: Candyman- 00:04:12 Valerie and Her Week of Wonders (Tw: SA)-00:37:13 Young Frankenstien- 01:12:08

LEMORA: A CHILD'S TALE OF THE SUPERNATURAL (1974), directed by Richard Blackburn and starring Cheryl Smith and Leslie Gilb. VALERIE AND HER WEEK OF WONDERS (1970), directed by Jaromil Jires and starring Jaroslava Schallerová. Quite by happenstance I watched both of these films recently and was struck by their similarities. Two young girls, Lila Lee in the American South and Valerie in Czechoslovakia, are each experiencing the perilous journey into womanhood. Both are pursued by lecherous clergyman, amorous lady friends, relatives, and vampires within dark fairy tale landscapes. Will one or both succumb to the temptations laid before them, or emerge with their purity in tact?

This month, designers Brandon Schaefer and Sam Smith look at the iconic and unsung film posters created for Janus Films in the 70's by Dot Graphics, the award-winning Denver-based design team of Lee Reedy and Robert Clayton. Across over two-dozen posters, Dot Graphics created bold and powerful key art for masterpieces of foreign cinema, showcasing their skill in typography, illustration, and art direction, old-school and computer-free. Years before the launch of the Criterion Collection, Reedy and Clayton foreshadowed a new graphic approach to film advertising in the arthouse industry. PLUS: a look in the Flat File at Dot's one-sheet for KING KONG and the many other posters for the 1933 classic. SHOW NOTES & LINKS Connecting the Dots: Dot Graphics and Janus Fims Lee Reedy Agatha Christie illustrations by Tom Adams Music selections: “Bass on Titles” opening theme, “The Magic Yard” from the VALERIE AND HER WEEK OF WONDERS original soundtrack by Lubos Fiser; KING KONG original soundtrack by Max Steiner.

Bill speaks with Exhumed Films co-founder and Diabolik DVD co-owner Joseph A. Gervasi about how the DIY ethos of hardcore punk informed his endeavors in film culture. They discuss the origins of his various projects, from early ventures like The Cabbage Collective and Bizarre Videos to later efforts like The Valerie Project and the ongoing Loud! Fast! Philly! series. Other topics addressed include Phil Hardy’s Overlook Film Encyclopedia, entitled genre film collectors, CAFÉ FLESH, the subtle homage to Joseph’s father on the Criterion Collection edition of VALERIE AND HER WEEK OF WONDERS, and how declining nude modeling opportunities can negatively impact the distribution of one's fanzine.

On this ILLUSTRIOUS episode we discuss DAISIES, THE CREMATOR, and VALERIE AND HER WEEK OF WONDERS with poster master mind and great friend of the show, Justin Miller (Hauntlove)!!!     This episode is a LONG ONE! Interesting that the number one complain Justin has about the show is that, at times, the WACK AND ON TRACK section of the show can run too long, and his was 45 minutes! That was AFTER I cut out a story about his old nick name “Fred Nasty” which was his old screen name on Centerfuse! The world is a weird place. We also talked a good deal about all kinds of other things, from DEADPOOL to GOOSEBUMPS, to Justin getting hit during his favorite band AMERICAN NIGHTMARE! I talked to much as usual, and it is a real bummer, but this episode was GREAT and Justin was an awesome guest we cannot wait to have on again! I should include all kinds of links, like to that upcoming JOHN CARPENTER SHOW  but for real editing 2 hours of show gets old. In fact, here we go with sound notes SOUND NOTES The sound turned out pretty cool, though eventually we need spit guards and shit on our mics so we have less weird mouth stuff going on. Sorry about all of that. Recently, on both shows I edit, I have been trying to cut out all the dead air and weird vocal ticks we have. I did some of that on this episode at first, but honestly I got discouraged by the length of the show, so the last hour or more is just raw feed. That is what we sound like. It sucks, I know. Sorry.

VALERIE AND HER WEEK OF WONDERS,1971 (Valérie au pays des merveilles) du cinéaste Tchèque Jaromil Jires. Cette semaine au 7ème Antiquaire on reçoit Alexandre Fontaine Rousseau pour nous guider dans un voyage surréaliste avec un film qui ouvre une porte vers cette zone confuse entre l'innocence de l’enfance et l'impureté de l'âge adulte, tout en parlant en parallèle d'un autre passage important que vécu la Tchécoslovaquie durant cette période. Va y avoir des fleurs, des vampires, des rituels et des menstruations (on sera pas trop loin de Wicker Man pour les intéressés).
