John Boorman – „Der Schneider von Panama“ (2001)

Klassisches britisches Kino. Obwohl es ein durch und durch amerikanischer Film ist. Doch wenn ein englischer Großregisseur ein Drehbuch des Großmeisters John le Carré mit einem Iren in der Hauptrolle besetzt, der gerade noch als 007 das Empire und die Welt retten durfte, dann kommt das eben dabei heraus. Ein kleines, selbstironisches Kunstwerk, das tagespolitisch aktueller kaum in die Zeit passt. (ZDF, WH)

It Is Happening, While It’s Happening

The words of playwright Harold Pinter’s 2005 Nobel Prize acceptance speech speak volumes about outlets like Consortium News and the anti-disinformation industry. “It never happened. Nothing ever happened. Even while it was happening it wasn’t happening. It didn’t matter. It…

Thanks to whoever here that recommended I read Harold Pinter's Proust Screenplay if I continued having trouble reading Proust. I've been stalled on vol. 2 forever but I just devoured the screenplay in less than a day. I think I shall continue trudging through the novel. (Also, I very much appreciated the lack of the madeleine in the screenplay.)

"I don't write with any audience in mind. I just write. I take a chance on the audience."

Just back from seeing David Tennant starring ‘Good’ at the Harold Pinter theatre last night. And… what a strange and frustrating play. The principal actors - Tennant, Sharon Small, Elliot Levey - were all jaw-droppingly good. I enjoyed the direction for the most part - it turned dialogue into physical theatre, and used one bare room’s capability to become everywhere. But the play itself was one of those better described as ‘important’ or ‘urgent’ than well written, or emotionally or intellectually satisfying. I can see why actors of this calibre want to be part of it - it’s an actors’ showcase, forcing them to switch roles, physiques, accents, voices, moods, on an instant’s seamless segue in time, space and viewpoint. And they do it amazingly - Sharon Small is someone I will never forget seeing devour her challenging portfolio of roles. But yeah. The play. Nice idea if not that original. But the writing. Oh gawd. Bit like those people from Hackney Wick Theatre Workshop who came to our junior school to do a piece in which one dressed in green and blue and called himself The Earth and we all had to ask how he felt about people building mines and houses on his face, then sing ‘Look What They’ve Done To My Song, Ma’ but replacing ‘song’ with ‘Earth’. The writer’s long passed, and was apparently astonishingly prolific, so no shade. But like ‘A Normal Heart’ at the National a couple of years ago - same director, same jukebox agit prop approach - it’s best approached with an eye for amazing theatre craft - and it’s genuinely special for that - and engagement with the issues. And not with any expectation of being a great play in itself.
