It’s so much easier to stab somebody and walk away — because if you get in a fight, if I sock you, you’re going to sock me back, and then we’re going to tussle and then [the guards are] going to shoot us.

The world-renowned Iranian director’s refusal to be categorized was apparent from his neorealist masterpieces, such as \u003cem>Taste of Cherry\u003c/em> and \u003cem>The Wind Will Carry Us\u003c/em>, that employed novice or nonprofessional actors to blur the parameters signifying (and separating) fiction and nonfiction. However, although the art house world recognized Kiarostami as an iconoclast and a humanist, his predisposition to experiment often went unnoticed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His final film, \u003cem>24 Frames\u003c/em>, completed under the supervision of his son Ahmad after Kiarostami’s death in July 2016, spotlights both the filmmaker’s acuity with short filmmaking and his fascination with nature photography. Working primarily from his own pictures of landscapes and wildlife, Kiarostami used CGI to depict what could have happened before or after the moment of exposure. The result is two dozen exquisitely shaped shorts that range from ephemeral episodes to esoteric experiments to meditative interludes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13826976\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1200px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/03/29399id_004_1200.jpg\" alt=\"Still from Abbas Kiarostami's '24 Frames,' 2017.\" width=\"1200\" height=\"680\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13826976\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/03/29399id_004_1200.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/03/29399id_004_1200-160x91.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/03/29399id_004_1200-800x453.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/03/29399id_004_1200-768x435.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/03/29399id_004_1200-1020x578.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/03/29399id_004_1200-1180x669.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/03/29399id_004_1200-960x544.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/03/29399id_004_1200-240x136.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/03/29399id_004_1200-375x213.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/03/29399id_004_1200-520x295.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Still from Abbas Kiarostami’s ’24 Frames,’ 2017. \u003ccite>(Courtesy of the Roxie)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>24 Frames\u003c/em>, opening Friday, March 16 at the \u003ca href=\"http://www.roxie.com/ai1ec_event/24-frames/?instance_id=26056\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Roxie\u003c/a>, is a rare and rarefied filmgoing experience.

"content": "\u003cp>In the hands of a cynical genius like Billy Wilder or a wily craftsman like Steven Soderbergh, \u003cem>Gringo\u003c/em> might’ve become a satire for the ages, a mordant document that people of the future could study to understand this morally vacuous moment in the life of our republic. Alas, this bloody farce was directed by one Nash Edgerton — a stuntman and prolific music video director, and the big brother of star Joel Edgerton, who can currently be seen in the even-gnarlier spy drama \u003cem>Red Sparrow\u003c/em> in the theater down the hall. The elder Edgerton is a competent storyteller: \u003cem>Gringo’\u003c/em>s Byzantine plot mostly scans, and he keeps its sardonic tone consistent throughout. But just because a movie hits all the notes doesn’t mean it sings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://youtu.be/AAFRI12Cxb0\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s too bad, because \u003cem>Gringo\u003c/em> has a lot going for it, including some occasionally sharp dialogue (by either Matthew Stone or Anthony Tambakis, who contributed to the bonebreaking and tearjerking Joel Edgerton /Tom Hardy MMA drama \u003cem>Warrior\u003c/em>) and a quartet of funny performances from players not primarily known for bringing the yuks: L’il Edgerton, Charlize Theron in full \u003cem>femme fatale \u003c/em>mode and beardy heavy Sharlto Copley.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The best and most surprising of the four is David Oyelowo, the versatile British actor who rose to the occasion to embody Martin Luther King, Jr. in \u003cem>Selma\u003c/em>. Here he plays Harold, a decent but all-too-credulous immigrant from Nigeria who works as a manager in the Chicago pharmaceuticals firm of which Edgerton and Theron are co-CEOs. (They make a habit of office trysts during business hours.) Harold is an honest man who sees the best in everyone, which in this genre means that everyone from his accountant to his bosses to his wife (Thandie Newton, in a truly thankless part) walks all over him. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When Harold learns he’ll soon be pushed out in a merger, he decides to extort a severance package of sorts by faking his own kidnapping, \u003cem>Fargo\u003c/em>-style. But just like hapless William H. Macy in that Coen Brothers classic, he’s unknowingly allied himself with dim-bulb crooks whose stupidity makes them \u003cem>more\u003c/em> dangerous, not less. There’s also a subplot involving Harry Treadaway and Amanda Seyfried as a small-time dealer and his pushover girlfriend who take a criminal errand to Mexico City that feels fully disposable.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Did I call this thing a satire? With its ready embrace of stereotypes — Oyelowo’s hardworking immigrant, Edgerton’s sleazy Pharma bro, Theron’s backstabbing man-eater, Seyfried’s virtuous hanger-on, plus Carlos Corona as a Beatles-quoting Mexican cartel kingpin known as, um, The Black Panther — \u003cem>Gringo\u003c/em> often borders on pantomime. What redeems it, sort of, is Copley of all people. The South African actor and filmmaker has played trigger-happy psychos or gun-toting beardos in too many so-so films to list. The minor variation this time is that is that his mercenary character — the estranged brother of Edgerton’s swaggering CEO, because sure — has renounced his life of violence and dedicated himself to humanitarian relief work. So when Edgerton calls upon Copley’s Very Particular Set of Skills to try to rescue Harold rather than pony up the ransom money, \u003cem>Gringo\u003c/em> taps into its only genuine vein of suspense: Oyelowo is a fed-up, still-mostly-good man trying desperately to break bad, while Copley is a reformed killer trying to get his new leaf to stick.

"content": "\u003cp>Danny Elfman is a multi-talented musician and composer who started his career as the leader of the Los Angeles world music/performance art ensemble Oingo Boingo, taking over for his older brother Richard. In the 1980’s, Elfman began pursuing a parallel career composing music for film and television, scoring 16 Tim Burton films, the theme for \u003cem>The Simpsons, \u003c/em> with its ingenious choral opening and manic beat, and, most recently, the score for the three \u003cem>Fifty Shades of Gray\u003c/em> films. But Elfman has also dabbled in writing symphonic music, sounding a bit like Mason Bates or John Adams at times; Bartók at others. And we have a chance to hear those efforts at Stanford, when the Stanford Symphony performs the US premiere of Elfman’s violin concerto \u003cem>Eleven Eleven\u003c/em>, a co-commission by the Czech National Symphony Orchestra, Royal Scottish National Orchestra and Stanford Live.
