ABOUT THE FILMS: 2 OR 3 THINGS I KNOW ABOUT HER, 1967, Dir: Jean-Luc Godard, 87 Minutes, Janus Films, France. In French with English subtitles. In 2 OR 3 THINGS I KNOW ABOUT HER, Jean-Luc Godard beckons us ever closer, whispering in our ears as narrator. About what? Money, sex, fashion, the city, love, language, war: in a word, everything. Among the legendary French filmmaker’s finest achievements, the film takes as its ostensible subject the daily life of Juliette Janson (Marina Vlady), a housewife from the Paris suburbs who prostitutes herself for extra money. Yet this is only a template for Godard to spin off into provocative philosophical tangents and gorgeous images. 2 OR 3 THINGS I KNOW ABOUT HER is perhaps Godard’s most revelatory look at consumer culture, shot in ravishing widescreen color by Raoul Coutard. FORMAT: DCP TAXI DRIVER, 1976, Dir: Martin Scorsese, 114 Minutes, Sony Pictures Entertainment, USA. Martin Scorsese’s “savage, many-headed dragon of the American New Wave” (Michael Atkinson, The Village Voice) is still as potent as ever. Cabbie Travis Bickle (Robert De Niro’s seminal pistol-packing, insomniac loner) drives through the open sewer that is mid-1970s Manhattan with its pimps (Harvey Keitel), working girls (Jodie Foster), politicos (Cybill Shepherd and Albert Brooks) and other scummy creatures of the neon wilderness. With a ferocious script by Paul Schrader. FORMAT: DCP
