#Bales2023FilmChallenge April 7: A #television production in a #movie on #PublicTelevisionDay

The global TV audience of #Mondo-Vision, a live broadcast #TimeTravel experiment, determines through their emotional investment in the lead's screened experience what the man's destination will be. Even so, the spectators' collective energy should serve as a powerhouse, enabling a televised leap into the future. The man whose faith determines it all is Terence Stamp – played by the actor with the same name. He agrees to partake in the hope that enough emotional energy can be harvested for him to travel back in time so he can reunite with his lost love.

While definitely taking a cue or two from Resnais' Je t'aime, je t'aime (1968), Jérôme Laperrousaz's Hu-Man (1975) has a much grimmer feel to it. The seventies were not a time of or even for optimism, including Stamp's career and personal life. Noun Serra's dizzying editing and the real-world danger both the in-movie actor and real-world actor are exposed to makes Hu-Man a much more self-referential and personal experience for this future's reality-fatigued viewer.

A young, introverted butterfly collector (Terrence Stamp) in a secluded big house with a separate cellar, moves up his territory when he kidnaps a pretty art school student (Samantha Eggar). After begging and pleading and escape attempts, they sort of agree on their terms - he will let her go after 4 weeks, hoping she will fall in love with him.
With only two principal actors (plus one small character in the middle), this John Fowles adaptation feels more like a play. Young Stamp is intense, playing the role of creepy, shy man with chips on his shoulders. Is it sex that you want from me? Miranda the art student asks him. No. He wants to respect her as a proper woman. There is a big confrontation over Catcher in the Rye. Their class differences are highlighted and the gap between them is obviously too wide. Intriguing psychological drama. #thecollector #williamwyler #terencestamp #samanthaeggar #adaptation #johnfowles

Not quite thoroughly a modern woman, Bath is conflicted by her ever shifting feelings. No one in Madding Crowd is truly evil or has harmful intentions. Who gets her heart at the end? Trusty servant/long time friend whom she can always depend on? A dreamboat who stirs fire in her? A wealthy, kindly benefactor who'd tolerate her equivocation til kingdom come? #JulieChristie is very lovely indeed. #johnschlesinger #alanbates #peterfinch #terencestamp #thomashardy #adaptation #farfrommaddingcrowd

Theorem (1968)
Pier Paolo Pasolini

Finally saw this. In a pornographic film there is often this flimsy plot device to connect the scenes were different characters feel compelled to have sex with the main protagonist. Here Pasolini removes the explicit sex scenes. It isn't even clear that the main protagonist is the protagonist and the result is this strange enigma that has something to do with miracles and class struggle.

Última noche en el SOHO

Este filme es diferente: Mezcla el thriller, trastornos psicológicos , actividad lparanormal y viajes en el tiempo.

Una joven llena de sueños que padece dificultades sociológicas y visiones con su madre muerta, se va a Londres para iniciar sus estudios en la moda. La chica proviene de una modesta familia en un lugar campestre en donde reside con su abuela.

Las cosas no salen como espera con sus compañeras de cuarto así que debe buscar donde vivir y trabajar.

Renta una habitación y allí experimenta una serie de sucesos escabrosos en medio de un viaje en el tiempo durante sus horas de sueño.

Precisamente a ella, le son revelados los eventos que vivió una joven aspirante a cantante en los años 60 en donde se muestra la realidad de un Londres crudo y muy cruel con las jóvenes de esa época.

El SOHO es el escenario que da vida a esta trama mostrándonos una historia interesante enlazando dos vidas, una en el pasado y otra en el presente.

La banda sonora no te dejará indiferente.
