THE NEW TALKIES's Film Bio
|
| Influences | "The film of tomorrow appears to me as even more personal than an individual and autobiographical novel, like a confession, or a diary. The young filmmakers will express themselves in the first person and will relate what has happened to them. It may be the story of their first love or their most recent; of their political awakening; the story of a trip, a sickness, their military service, their marriage, their last vacation...and it will be enjoyable because it will be true, and new...The film of tomorrow will not be directed by civil servants of the camera, but by artists for whom shooting a film constitutes a wonderful and thrilling adventure. The film of tomorrow will resemble the person who made it, and the number of spectators will be proportional to the number of friends the director has. The film of tomorrow will be an act of love." - Francois Truffaut | | Directors |

About me:
"THE TRUE SPIRIT OF INDEPENDENT AMERICAN FILM IS BACK!" - THE GUARDIAN
Sometimes tagged "mumblecore," a new group of prolific, young filmmakers has emerged from the festival circuit over the last few years, making intimate, improvisational, collaborative films. These truly independent features are both something entirely new, and at the same time reminiscent of the spirit and aesthetic of Cassavetes, Jarmusch and even Rohmer. Steeped in a hyper-wired world, they tell achingly real stories of twentysomethings struggling with love, work and life -- all on the most modest of budgets.
Described as "a nascent movement on the fringes of American cinema, combining a severe and often unscripted naturalism -- with an indie-rock ethic of self-help, self-distribution (as necessary) and community building," by Salon's Andrew O'Hehir, these films have had little theatrical exposure so far. As this strand of independent cinema becomes more established, garnering critical attention and attracting new talents, "The New Talkies: Generation DIY" surveys this fresh direction in American moviemaking with a look at both key works and new examples.
