    Renowned Director Atom Egoyan discusses Amanda Seyfried and his new film SEVEN VEILS

    A new Atom Egoyan film is cause for excitement among arthouse moviegoers. A stylish, self-assured filmmaker, his return to US screens is a welcome reunion for those who appreciate how he uses a non-linear plot structure to explore complex themes of fractured families, voyeurism, and obsession. After several highly regarded early films, his charged erotic drama, EXOTICA was a career breakthrough, winning the international Federation of Critics award at Cannes. His follow-up film, THE SWEET HEREAFTER earned him even greater acclaim garnering two Academy Award nominations. His new film SEVEN VEILS starring Amanda Seyfried, mixes the filmmakers' love of opera and cinema. In it, art imitates life, and this visually stunning film feels like a fever dream that sweeps you away. Atom Egoyan remains one of the most challenging and talked-about directors on the international scene, and we got to sit down with him, to discuss his new film, SEVEN VEILS.

    A Cinematic Event The Fishing Place conversation with Rob Tregenza

    A new movie lands in theaters, called THE FISHING PLACE, directed by the indie maverick Rob Tregenza. The FISHING PLACE has drawn high praise with rave reviews from Richard Brody in The New Yorker calling it, "Spectacularly conceived,” and that Tregenza is “An artisan of the highest order.” Manohla Dargis of The New York Times calls Tregenza, "An Authentic Independent who holds you rapt.” Rob Tregenza has done a bit of everything in the world of arthouse cinema. As a distributor, he brought to US cinemas works by Michael Haneke, Jacques Rivette, and Jean-Luc Godard. As a cinematographer, he shot Bela Tarr's WERCKMEISTER HARMONIES. And, as a director, his films TALKING TO STRANGERS, INSIDE/OUT and GAVAGAI drew so much critical praise that he received a retrospective tribute from the Museum of Modern Art in New York City. As THE FISHING PLACE rolls out to theaters across the US, we asked Rob to join us for a wide-ranging conversation about art and the search for meaning and beauty in cinema.

    20th annual Oscar® Nominated Short Films Theatrical Release with Carter Pilcher

    If you like filling out an Oscar contest ballot, you know how important it is to have seen all the nominated films in a given category. For a long time though, actually getting to see the nominated animated, documentary, and live-action shorts was nearly impossible ...even IF you were an Academy member. But not now. For the past 20 years, Shorts International has been compiling the nominated shorts into programs that screen at theaters across the US and around the globe. After starting in just a few markets, the Oscar Shorts program now screens in over 600 theatres, all pretty much during the few weeks between the nominations and the Oscars presentation. This program is one of the highest-grossing limited-release programs at the North American box office annually, so art house operators are looking forward to the February 14 launch with anticipation. In today's episode, we talk with Carter Pilcher from Shorts International, to take a look behind the curtain to see how the program is put together, and discuss the impact a nomination can have on the life of an up-and-coming filmmaker. "The 20th annual Oscar® Nominated Short Films theatrical release, presented by SHORTS, is coming to cinemas starting February 14, 2025. The release, only available in theaters, will contain all of the short films nominated in the categories of Best Live Action, Best Animated and Best Documentary short film.

    Where Jazz & Espionage Collide Oscar Nominated Soundtrack To A Coup D'Etat director Johan Grimonprez

    A sensation when it premiered at the Sundance Film Festival, SOUNDTRACK TO A COUP D’ETAT is where jazz and world politics collide. Cultural icons like Louis Armstrong, Dizzy Gillespie, Maya Angelou, Max Roach, Nina Simone, and Walt Disney get entwined in a forgotten episode of the Cold War. This story of the undermining of African self determination feels like a John Le Carre spy thriller. But sadly, it's all true. And that action from the early 1960's is still being felt today, as we see a country again racked by violence and instability. From filmmaker Johan Grimonprez, this audacious film, SOUNDTRACK TO A COUP D’ETAT is now nominated for an Oscar Award for Best Documentary. Join us as we welcome Johan Grimonprez on INSIDE THE ARTHOUSE, starting now. @kinolorber @laemmle @InsidetheArthouse #movie #arthouse @laemmle @InsidetheArthouse ​@inside_Arthouse www.facebook.com/insidethearthouse

    Dispelling the Myth of Hollywood’s First Nepobaby: Liza Minnelli Documentary with Bruce David Klein

    You think you know Liza Minnelli But you don’t Behind the tabloid headlines, there is a person. The product of a tumultuous marriage. Someone who had to deal with the early and tragic death of their mother. A performer who had to deal with the expectations of being the child of one of the most legendary performers of Hollywood's Golden Age. In today's climate where nepotism and privilege draw such intense scrutiny, it can be hard to remember that expectation can also be a crushing weight. But Liza survived it all. In LIZA: A TRULY TERRIFIC ABSOLUTELY TRUE STORY, filmmaker Bruce David Klein pulls back the curtain and allows Liza's friends to reveal how she was able to use a coterie of collaborators and mentors to reach the highest peaks of stardom, even as her personal life did not always match that success. After seeing the film, you will undoubtedly have a greater appreciation for this talented performer and complex individual. Join us as we welcome director Bruce David Klein to INSIDE THE ARTHOUSE. @zeitgeistfilms and @atlasmediacorp #LizaDocFilm

    Small Things Are Very Big in Every Little Thing with director Sally Aitken

    When is a documentary about Hummingbirds more than just another educational nature documentary? In the case of Sally Aitken’s new movie, EVERY LITTLE THING, we discover that small things are very big things— and you will be more than a little surprised. Hummingbirds’ wings beat fifty times per second, and with astounding high speed photography, they float like gossamer on the screen, captured like small magic sprites. Terry Masear, the films subject, runs a Hummingbird Rescue and she too, is magical and surprising. No bigger than your little finger, these remarkable birds become bigger than life, as we discover Terry’s care, attention, wisdom, and affection for these little beings. It’s a film that will stay with you long after you leave the theater. EVERY LITTLE THING is big and wide and will leave you thinking about how small acts of kindness, expressed to the tiniest of creatures, can have giant impacts. Join us for a discussion with the film’s director, Sally Aitkin, right now—on Inside the Arthouse. --- Hosted by Greg Laemmle and Raphael Sbarge, Inside the Arthouse is an “insider’s” perspective podcast on filmmakers & people responsible for films appearing on arthouse screens across USA.
