BAM TO UNVEIL NEW GODARD PRINT
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.
