We went to see a musical version of “Aniara.” After that, she had a stroke and ended up in this huge hospital. I was by her side and reading the poem out loud to her. As she was getting better, we started to role-play. This enormous hospital was the big spacecraft. All the patients were passengers and the doctors: they were the crew. My grandma was this artificial intelligence called Mima.

We went to see a musical version of “Aniara.” After that, she had a stroke and ended up in this huge hospital. I was by her side and reading the poem out loud to her. As she was getting better, we started to role-play. This enormous hospital was the big spacecraft. All the patients were passengers and the doctors: they were the crew. My grandma was this artificial intelligence called Mima.

The big screen is the best way to appreciate Tribe’s photographer’s eye, while the installation experience brings out the newspaper-feature quality of various vignettes and characters—an ecologist, an urban farmer, a trailer-park resident (and his young daughter), an admirer of a long-dead hobo graffiti artist—that Tribe gracefully strings into a wending urban tale.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In sync with the filmmaker’s approach, the title evokes the Surrealist game of creating a text out of the random contributions of different people. It’s also a pretty fair description of the lengthy concrete corridor bisecting the Southern California landscape that hardly ever carries more than a couple inches of water (let alone serves to provide protection against flooding) in the 21st century.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A thinking- (and feeling-)person’s travelogue, \u003cem>Exquisite Corpse\u003c/em> is observational rather than critical, and evocative rather than activist. Tribe showers the viewer with a steady stream of pleasures, from sublime urban snapshots to snippets of slice-of-life interviews, that coalesce into a contemplation of the resilience and creativity of people surviving in the middle of a megalopolis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>You’re most likely to hear the magic words “live cinema” at experimental-film venues and (paradoxically) top-tier film festivals. The phrase typically refers to a creative presentation of images (i.e., dual asynchronous projectors) or live musical (or verbal) accompaniment to a completed film.

But what made you think of casting her as Dickinson?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s casting where the performer connects with a deep truth inside of them as a person. Emily Dickinson had an original mind and Molly Shannon is one of a kind. If you don’t think of Molly as Emily Dickinson before you see the movie, you certainly do think of her as Emily Dickinson after you see it. One of the shocks for me wasn’t just finding out about her romantic life, but it was finding out that, actually, Emily Dickinson had a sense of humor and was very funny and warm. Molly brings to light who the true Emily was.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Although the film is set in the 19th century, you wrote the script with contemporary colloquial expressions. Did you want to avoid the trappings of a period piece?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I’ve been really moved, if that’s the right word, by \u003cem>\u003ca href=\"http://www.cc.com/shows/drunk-history\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Drunk History\u003c/a>\u003c/em>. It’s shown us that historical pieces, when they’re stripped of all the pretension that we associate with them, are really about people in situations dealing with ideas. When I was reading Dickinson’s letters, I was surprised by how contemporary so much of the language was. It shocked me: jokes and things that you would never think someone in the 1800s would say. So I didn’t want the actors’ attention on presenting the period. We’ve seen that in a million films. I was interested in everyone focusing on what each person felt in that situation, the connections with other people and what they were struggling with.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13855059\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/04/Emily-Molly-Shannon-thinking-at-her-desk-WILD-NIGHTS-WITH-EMILY-Courtesy-of-Greenwich-Entertainment.jpg\" alt=\"Emily (Molly Shannon) thinking at her desk in 'Wild Nights with Emily.'\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13855059\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/04/Emily-Molly-Shannon-thinking-at-her-desk-WILD-NIGHTS-WITH-EMILY-Courtesy-of-Greenwich-Entertainment.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/04/Emily-Molly-Shannon-thinking-at-her-desk-WILD-NIGHTS-WITH-EMILY-Courtesy-of-Greenwich-Entertainment-160x90.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/04/Emily-Molly-Shannon-thinking-at-her-desk-WILD-NIGHTS-WITH-EMILY-Courtesy-of-Greenwich-Entertainment-800x450.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/04/Emily-Molly-Shannon-thinking-at-her-desk-WILD-NIGHTS-WITH-EMILY-Courtesy-of-Greenwich-Entertainment-768x432.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/04/Emily-Molly-Shannon-thinking-at-her-desk-WILD-NIGHTS-WITH-EMILY-Courtesy-of-Greenwich-Entertainment-1020x574.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/04/Emily-Molly-Shannon-thinking-at-her-desk-WILD-NIGHTS-WITH-EMILY-Courtesy-of-Greenwich-Entertainment-1200x675.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Emily (Molly Shannon) thinking at her desk in ‘Wild Nights with Emily.’ \u003ccite>(Courtesy of Greenwich Entertainment)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Before I read her poetry, I grew up with the image of Julie Harris as Emily Dickinson in the one-woman show \u003cem>The Belle of Amherst\u003c/em>. Did you?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oh, of course. The thing to remember about Julie Harris and \u003ca href=\"https://archive.org/details/thebelleofamherst\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cem>The Belle of Amherst\u003c/em>\u003c/a> is that Emily Dickinson wrote those letters [that the play is based upon] when she was in her early teens. Having a middle-aged woman perform those sentiments as if they were current, made her into a weird adult child. There was a gap between what she was expressing and the age she was at, which added to that feeling of, “There’s something wrong here.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I definitely had that \u003cem>Belle of Amherst\u003c/em> idea in my head. And it wasn’t appealing to me as someone growing up in the 1970s. What first made me interested in Emily Dickinson was Philip Weiss’ \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/1998/11/29/magazine/beethoven-s-hair-tells-all.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">article\u003c/a> in the \u003cem>New York Times\u003c/em> that we reference in the end credits. I hadn’t had any interest in Emily Dickinson and that article floored me. Martha Nell Smith, who wrote \u003cem>\u003ca href=\"https://utpress.utexas.edu/books/smirow\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Rowing in Eden: Rereading Emily Dickinson\u003c/a>\u003c/em>, was profiled about using spectrographic technology to look at the erasures in Emily’s letters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>That article referenced an unexpurgated letter from Emily to her sister-in-law Susan.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dickinson wrote out this whole long letter that was so passionate and so clearly the letter of someone in love. I thought, that letter was never erased or marked up and it’s just been sitting out there a few years? It was hiding in plain sight. Emily’s letters to Susan were published in 1998.

But what made you think of casting her as Dickinson?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s casting where the performer connects with a deep truth inside of them as a person. Emily Dickinson had an original mind and Molly Shannon is one of a kind. If you don’t think of Molly as Emily Dickinson before you see the movie, you certainly do think of her as Emily Dickinson after you see it. One of the shocks for me wasn’t just finding out about her romantic life, but it was finding out that, actually, Emily Dickinson had a sense of humor and was very funny and warm. Molly brings to light who the true Emily was.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Although the film is set in the 19th century, you wrote the script with contemporary colloquial expressions.

It’s shown us that historical pieces, when they’re stripped of all the pretension that we associate with them, are really about people in situations dealing with ideas. When I was reading Dickinson’s letters, I was surprised by how contemporary so much of the language was. It shocked me: jokes and things that you would never think someone in the 1800s would say. So I didn’t want the actors’ attention on presenting the period. We’ve seen that in a million films. I was interested in everyone focusing on what each person felt in that situation, the connections with other people and what they were struggling with.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13855059\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/04/Emily-Molly-Shannon-thinking-at-her-desk-WILD-NIGHTS-WITH-EMILY-Courtesy-of-Greenwich-Entertainment.jpg\" alt=\"Emily (Molly Shannon) thinking at her desk in 'Wild Nights with Emily.'\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13855059\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/04/Emily-Molly-Shannon-thinking-at-her-desk-WILD-NIGHTS-WITH-EMILY-Courtesy-of-Greenwich-Entertainment.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/04/Emily-Molly-Shannon-thinking-at-her-desk-WILD-NIGHTS-WITH-EMILY-Courtesy-of-Greenwich-Entertainment-160x90.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/04/Emily-Molly-Shannon-thinking-at-her-desk-WILD-NIGHTS-WITH-EMILY-Courtesy-of-Greenwich-Entertainment-800x450.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/04/Emily-Molly-Shannon-thinking-at-her-desk-WILD-NIGHTS-WITH-EMILY-Courtesy-of-Greenwich-Entertainment-768x432.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/04/Emily-Molly-Shannon-thinking-at-her-desk-WILD-NIGHTS-WITH-EMILY-Courtesy-of-Greenwich-Entertainment-1020x574.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/04/Emily-Molly-Shannon-thinking-at-her-desk-WILD-NIGHTS-WITH-EMILY-Courtesy-of-Greenwich-Entertainment-1200x675.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Emily (Molly Shannon) thinking at her desk in ‘Wild Nights with Emily.’ \u003ccite>(Courtesy of Greenwich Entertainment)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Before I read her poetry, I grew up with the image of Julie Harris as Emily Dickinson in the one-woman show \u003cem>The Belle of Amherst\u003c/em>.

Having a middle-aged woman perform those sentiments as if they were current, made her into a weird adult child. There was a gap between what she was expressing and the age she was at, which added to that feeling of, “There’s something wrong here.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I definitely had that \u003cem>Belle of Amherst\u003c/em> idea in my head. And it wasn’t appealing to me as someone growing up in the 1970s. What first made me interested in Emily Dickinson was Philip Weiss’ \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/1998/11/29/magazine/beethoven-s-hair-tells-all.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">article\u003c/a> in the \u003cem>New York Times\u003c/em> that we reference in the end credits. I hadn’t had any interest in Emily Dickinson and that article floored me. Martha Nell Smith, who wrote \u003cem>\u003ca href=\"https://utpress.utexas.edu/books/smirow\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Rowing in Eden: Rereading Emily Dickinson\u003c/a>\u003c/em>, was profiled about using spectrographic technology to look at the erasures in Emily’s letters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>That article referenced an unexpurgated letter from Emily to her sister-in-law Susan.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dickinson wrote out this whole long letter that was so passionate and so clearly the letter of someone in love. I thought, that letter was never erased or marked up and it’s just been sitting out there a few years? It was hiding in plain sight. Emily’s letters to Susan were published in 1998. Other material like \u003cem>The Riddle of Emily Dickinson\u003c/em>, about Emily and Kate Anthon [another possible lover], was published in 1951.

This year, a \u003ca href=\"https://sffilm.org/event/warpaint-live-score-films-by-maya-deren/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Castro Theater event on April 19\u003c/a> pairing live music with silent films is typically inspired. It matches live music from Warpaint’s Theresa Wayman and Stella Mozgawa with the immortal Maya Deren’s amazing mid-century works of avant-garde ethnography: \u003cem>At Land\u003c/em>, \u003cem>Meshes of the Afternoon\u003c/em>, \u003cem>Ritual in Transfigured Time\u003c/em> and \u003cem>The Very Eye of Night\u003c/em>. Entrancing, transporting and not to be missed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of my more memorable, and confounding, experiences at the San Francisco International Film Festival was the 2000 press screening of \u003cem>Wisconsin Death Trip\u003c/em>. I recall James Marsh’s genre-defying adaptation of Michael Lesy’s 1973 cult-fave compilation of 19th century photographs and newspaper accounts of Midwestern self-destruction and suffering as an amalgam of black-and-white poetry, historical curiosity, death tourism (Marsh is British) and bullet-punctuated eulogy. Decide for yourself on Saturday, April 20, when \u003ca href=\"https://bampfa.org/event/wisconsin-death-trip\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cem>Wisconsin Death Trip\u003c/em> screens at BAMPFA in Berkeley\u003c/a> as part of the Mel Novikoff Award presentation to editor and executive producer Anthony Wall of BBC Arena, the long-running strand of stellar arts documentaries.

This year, a \u003ca href=\"https://sffilm.org/event/warpaint-live-score-films-by-maya-deren/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Castro Theater event on April 19\u003c/a> pairing live music with silent films is typically inspired. It matches live music from Warpaint’s Theresa Wayman and Stella Mozgawa with the immortal Maya Deren’s amazing mid-century works of avant-garde ethnography: \u003cem>At Land\u003c/em>, \u003cem>Meshes of the Afternoon\u003c/em>, \u003cem>Ritual in Transfigured Time\u003c/em> and \u003cem>The Very Eye of Night\u003c/em>. Entrancing, transporting and not to be missed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of my more memorable, and confounding, experiences at the San Francisco International Film Festival was the 2000 press screening of \u003cem>Wisconsin Death Trip\u003c/em>. I recall James Marsh’s genre-defying adaptation of Michael Lesy’s 1973 cult-fave compilation of 19th century photographs and newspaper accounts of Midwestern self-destruction and suffering as an amalgam of black-and-white poetry, historical curiosity, death tourism (Marsh is British) and bullet-punctuated eulogy. Decide for yourself on Saturday, April 20, when \u003ca href=\"https://bampfa.org/event/wisconsin-death-trip\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cem>Wisconsin Death Trip\u003c/em> screens at BAMPFA in Berkeley\u003c/a> as part of the Mel Novikoff Award presentation to editor and executive producer Anthony Wall of BBC Arena, the long-running strand of stellar arts documentaries. (James Marsh, incidentally, went on to win the Best Documentary Oscar for \u003cem>Man on Wire\u003c/em> before segueing to narrative features.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>The spaceship hurtling away from Earth is staffed with men and women sprung from death row to aid in a mysterious science experiment. The once-condemned crew believe they’ve been given a chance to redeem themselves and do one final good deed for humanity. Only later, as their signals to Earth begin to go unanswered and their true mission comes into focus, do they realize they have in fact been condemned twice. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>High Life \u003c/em>is strange and wondrous, less a traditional sci-fi film than it is a seductive journey into the long, black night of death. For many Americans it will also be a wormhole into the work of French director Claire Denis, who’s been active in cinephile circles for three decades but has never before helmed a movie entirely in English. Of course, having the hipness cred of A24 and Robert Pattinson providing the rocket fuel doesn’t hurt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://youtu.be/AtOwfo1ypOw\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A prologue that wouldn’t be out of place in a Tarkovsky film shows Pattinson’s human guinea pig Monte in the aftermath of something horrible, wandering alone on the deck of this rocket to nowhere, with only a mysterious baby keeping him company. It’s a great hook — \u003cem>what the hell happened here? \u003c/em>— shot at Denis’ familiar meandering pace, proving that even lightspeed won’t rush her story. It’s also a mission statement. As he hurtles toward oblivion, Monte’s acts of paternal care exist in a kind of vacuum. Maybe life and love are possible within a universe of infinite cruelty, and it’s up to the individual to determine their worth.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Flashbacks soon fill in some of the story, though not all of it. For much of the mission Monte (minus the baby) has been in the company of several other inmates. They’re all beholden to Dr. Dibs, the ship’s sexpot mad scientist, played with ecstatic camp glee by Juliette Binoche. Dibs, like Dr. Frankenstein before her, is obsessed with conjuring life from nothing, and the thriving greenhouse on the ship, combined with the turkey basters she employs with surgical precision, give a clue as to what she might want from her captives … or perhaps more specifically from Monte, whom she clearly lusts after. (Pattinson is terrific in this, playing Monte as someone who’s practiced at the art of concealing his true soul from the world.) But Dibs’ other subjects are less than cooperative. Some have a streak of sexual violence you might expect of the circumstances that brought them onboard, while the powder-keg Boyse (Mia Goth) simply resents the idea of becoming someone else’s experiment, even with the limited options she has available to her at such a prematurely late stage of life. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Denis grew up in colonial French Africa, where she’s staged many of her films, and it often feels like every landscape is a form of outer space to her. Over output as disparate as the Djibouti-set military-exercise symphony \u003cem>Beau Travail\u003c/em>, the deeply unsettling cannibal horror “romance” \u003cem>Trouble Every Day \u003c/em>and well into this brave new foray, she demonstrates an eerie, clinical fascination with the human body in moments of both monotony and crisis. What do our routines, our thoughtless movements, tell us about ourselves? And what are we capable of doing to each other’s bodies, or to our own, when given the chance? \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Maybe such a description of Denis’ work is necessary to newcomers because otherwise something like \u003cem>High Life\u003c/em>, with its cloudy, elliptical narrative, uncomfortable sex stuff and spats of truly nasty behavior, could be… well, an alienating experience. The film frames the cosmos not as a new frontier of exploration, a land of wonder and hope, but as a delayed death sentence: No return from the undiscovered country. And our brief glimpses of Earth don’t fare much better. Through the eyes of the prisoners, we can only see a world that neglected and abandoned them until it was too late, and then formally expelled them from its orbit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another trademark of Denis, the salacious imagery, becomes \u003cem>High Life\u003c/em>‘s clearest bond to Earth: Humans are creatures of sex and violence, after all. There’s an inky black chamber on the ship that’s equipped only for self-gratification. There’s some business with sperm that will make you think less of eroticism and more of an animal testing lab. There’s a shocking attack involving glass shards. All of this is made even more uneasy because the ship (designed with muted tones and a chilling sterility by sculpture artist Ólafur Eliasson) throws off our equilibrium, its close quarters making mincemeat of the idea of personal space. \u003cem>High Life \u003c/em>confirms something we’ve long expected in the movies: From \u003cem>2001 \u003c/em>to \u003cem>Alien \u003c/em>and beyond, every spaceship inevitably becomes a prison. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are moments when it seems the film isn’t grandiose enough for its vision, leading to some underdeveloped characters (like André Benjamin’s soft-spoken gardener Tcherny) who feel like afterthoughts. All the same, \u003cem>High Life \u003c/em>has hard things to say about our species, and about what it means to push people beyond the point of no return. In those outer limits we find pain and life, and a singular filmmaker unafraid of the dark. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>Copyright 2019 \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">NPR\u003c/a>.\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\n",
