#Bales2023FilmChallenge July 28: playing soccer on #NationalSoccerDay
A lot of #soccer there's not, in #WimWenders' Die Angst des Tormanns beim Elfmeter (1972). An early, perfect example of Neue Deutsche Film, cinematic thanks to #RobbyMüller's observant eye and Handke's precise language. And a very slow burning road movie, a Taxi Driver in reverse if you will, that doesn't suffer the neurotic showmanship of its Hollywood counterpart > https://write.underworld.fr/settima/die-angst-des-tormanns-beim-elfmeter-1972

#ThisNightIllWatch your Blu-ray release from #Criterion
of #JimJarmusch's DEAD MAN (1995). Vividly remember seeing this on its first release. #RobbyMuller's cinematography is a dream.
The Criterion disc includes a lovely gallery of production stills, + the readings of #WilliamBlake's poetry by Mili Avatal, Alfred Molina, + Iggy Popo accompanied by Jarmusch's evocative black-and-white production recce stills are superb. I adore this film, though GHOST DOG is still my fave Jarmusch
