By Hillary Weston Verified| criterion.com@ Some say there’s no better place to fall in love than New York City. Human interaction is constant here but connection is rare, and yet everyday existence amid the hustle and bustle can feel enchanting, especially when heightened by the thrill of infatuation. The city excites the senses, and the local history of romance, as immortalized in countless works of art, is palpable.
By Hillary Weston Verified| criterion.com@ Since the early 1980s, when she emerged from the downtown New York arts scene, filmmaker Sara Driver has honed her gift for finding a sense of the hypnagogic and phantasmagoric in the rhythms of everyday life. Now regarded as a landmark of independent cinema, her work draws on everything from ancient mythology and classical fairy tales to American B movies and the French cinéma fantastique.
By Sean Gilman, Hillary Weston Verified| criterion.com@ Most accounts of Hou Hsiao-hsien’s early career hinge on a book, the autobiography of the celebrated Chinese author Shen Congwen. Sometime around 1983, the writer Chu T’ien-wen, who would later become one of Hou’s closest and most frequent collaborators, gave the filmmaker a copy, thinking that he shared a certain sensibility with Shen.
