Bamcinématek has a great line up for this summer including some rare films by
Chris Marker and a brand new print of
Jean-Luc Godard's Pierrot le fou.
On June 11th BAM will screen
The Loneliness of the Long Distance Singer, a cinematic essay on French icon
Yves Montand. Along with this BAM will screen two largely unseen shorts:
The Embassy and
The Sixth Side of the Pentagon. With the upcoming Criterion release of
La Jetée/Sans Soeil this screening is a perfect complement.
Speaking of Criterion, Janus films has acquired a new, restored print of Godard's crime/comedy
Pierrot le Fou which BAM will host from June 15th -26th. A Criterion DVD with all the goodies is promised later this year. More details at
ioncinema.com.
