We open with stories of one man's brilliant idea to remake the science fiction classic, _Fly, The (1958)_, into a whole new entity. The end result was David Cronenberg's _Fly, The (1986)_ that revolutionized the genre. Nearly every aspect of the filmmaking process is covered in this mammoth documentary, and in great detail. Sadly, the only thing missing here are some new interv...
In an unspecified future, a man prepares to kill himself in a cinema toilet. Two unseen radio commentators say he is the last Jew in the world, and that this is the last cinema, slated for destruction. They are not sorry to see it go.
Surgery is the new sex, 18th-century style. In David Cronenberg’s wry, surrealist miniature, four anatomical female wax models—taken from the collection of Florence’s 250-year-old science museum La Specola—lie in uncanny repose as the camera dreamily caresses their detachable organs, exposed body cavities, and glossy ceroplastic flesh. Under the director’s inimitable gaze, obje...
Truthfully I'm not absolutely certain whether this came before or after Shivers. I see the dates listed but you know how production dates can be and so on.

In 1982, Wim Wenders asked 16 of his fellow directors to speak on the future of cinema, resulting in the film Room 666. Now, 40 years later, in Cannes, director Lubna Playoust asks Wim Wenders himself and a new generation of filmmakers (James Gray, Rebecca Zlotowski, Claire Denis, Olivier Assayas, Nadav Lapid, Asghar Farhadi, Alice Rohrwacher and more) the same question: “is ci...
This black and white short (roughly 13 mins) is simply brilliant, in my humble opinion. Shot in a darkened bathroom, it concerns a surreal dialogue between two very strange men sitting in a bath (that probably counts as a spoiler for this film). One man is camp and talkative, while the other is a nervous nutter, concerned that a bathplug be placed in the 'drain end of the tub' ...

国际影坛最富争议性、最成功的导演之一。一九七五年的处女作〈THEY CAME FROM WITHIN〉,以及之后的〈RABID〉,〈VIDEODROME〉都是恐怖片,一般公认这些作品都隐含了丰富的社会议题。柯能堡是加拿大人,善于探讨虚幻与现实,以及外力对这一切造成的影响。新片〈X接触-来自异世界〉结合紧张的动作场面,以及幻想与现实模糊的界限,是柯能保截至目前最有野心、最挑的作品
