[CINÉ-DÉBAT] Love Meetings (VOSF)
[CINÉ-DÉBAT] Love Meetings (VOSF)
Love Meetings (Comizi d’amore) est un documentaire de 1964 réalisé par Pier Paolo Pasolini. Il explore les attitudes des Italiens à l’égard de l’amour, du sexe, du mariage et de la morale à travers des entretiens spontanés menés dans la rue à travers tout le pays. Mêlant curiosité et provocation, Pasolini dresse un portrait révélateur des normes sociales et des tabous dans l’Italie d’après-guerre. 🗓️ LUNDI 20 AVRIL de 19H à 21H30 📍 58 rue Richer 75009 Paris 🔴 entrée = 1 boisson 🌐 visitez www.thedissidentclub.org pour plus d’informations

Robert Capa. Photographe de guerre - Musée de la Libération
Chers tous ! Le Musée de la LIbération organise une exposition autour de Robert Capa : "Robert Capa a inventé un style : le photographe de guerre, l’œil rivé à l’objectif, le scoop toujours à l’esprit. Témoin engagé, son regard a marqué durablement l’histoire du photojournalisme et a façonné la figure nouvelle du photographe de guerre. Le musée de la Libération de Paris - musée du général Leclerc - musée Jean Moulin propose, avec la collaboration exceptionnelle de Magnum Photos, une relecture contextualisée de son oeuvre. Plus de soixante tirages de presse d’époque sont présentés aux côtés de magazines, ouvrages, documents et objets personnels. Ensemble, ces cent soixante pièces retracent ainsi le parcours d’un jeune immigré hongrois devenu une icône de la photographie moderne." Musée de la Libération Pour acheter votre billet (créneau 14h30) : https://www.billetterie-parismusees.paris.fr/content# Puis, pour ceux qui le souhaitent nous irons dans une brasserie dans les alentours pour discuter, boire, manger, échanger... Enfin, assurez-vous, je vous prie de vos intentions de participation. Belles escapades artistiques et à bientôt ! Jélila PS : j'enverrai la veille tous les détails pour se retrouver. Aussi, vous pouvez prendre le créneau avant ou après si celui de 14h30 est épuisé.

Option 1 (and the one I'll be seeing) is the top-reviewed comedy-drama, THE CHRISTOPHERS! The film is set in the art world and follows the estranged children of a former artist who hire a forger. It is directed by Steven Soderberg, stars Ian McKellen and Michaela Coel and has been earning rave reviews on the indie circuit. Option 2 is the latest action-thriller starring Bob Odenkirk, NORMAL!

It is directed by Steven Soderbergh and stars Ian McKellen, Michaela Coel, Jessica Gunning and James Corden. BUZZ & ACCLAIM: The film is earning an excellent 97% positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes where critics call it a “dynamic, emotional and surprising journey” and a “compelling chamber piece that works like intellectual comfort food.” Others call the film, an “incredibly funny, comedy drama with plot reversals that make it feel like it’s on the verge of a thriller!” TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H79-EqzmdwY&t=20s NORMAL: This action-crime-thriller follows a man who comes to the sleepy town of Normal, Minnesota to serve as the temporary sheriff.
