Telluride 2011: 'Into the Abyss' vs. 'Pina' in a Documentary Doubleheader

"Into the Abyss" Werner Herzog's Into the Abyss and Wim Wenders' Pina made for quite the double header Saturday afternoon. One probes the carnival of misery surrounding a triple murder and execution in Texas, the other is a 3D exploration of the otherworldly choreography of Pina Bausch. Strangely, the latter is the one that seemed overlong. Abyss, subtitled A Tale of Death, a Tale of Life, is a crushing account of the wreckage caused by two Texas teens who were convicted of killing three people over their desire to steal a car. Herzog alternates between chapter titles such as "Time and Emptiness" and "The Protocol of Death" with "A Glimmer of Hope" and "The Urgency of Life" to ultimately make his case for ending the death penalty, despite the violent destruction men can cause. The film is unrelentingly grim and full of sadness as no one connected to the crime is spared the psychological scars of the machinery of death - whether random and pointless or sanctioned by the law and the state. Herzog includes interviews and images that are as unshakable for viewers as they are for those affected, such as an imprisoned father's memory of riding a prison transfer bus handcuffed to his own son. PHOTOS: Telluride Film Festival: 12 Movies to Know The filmmaker neglects to ask a few obvious questions of his subjects, but he also manages to cut to the core of one priest's conscience with the question: "Tell me an encounter with a squirrel." The response, which begins the film, is devastating.Also to his credit, Herzog never makes explicit the economic and educational deficiencies that led to much of the wretched behavior on display. It didn't need to be said, and his own conscience knew that. During the introduction to his film at the Palm, Herzog was the first to admit that a great many of his films could have been titled "Into the Abyss," since much of his fiction and nonfiction work delves into the darker sides of humanity or the "new abysses that open up" when you really look into people's lives. Herzog also said that the world of incarceration and punishment is one that has fascinated him since his teens, when he first drew up plans to explore Straubing prison in Bavaria in the late 1950s.

George Harrison: Living in the Material World: Telluride Film Review

It's a wonder how he does it, but somehow between making The Departed and Shutter Island and Boardwalk Empire and Hugo and all his assorted other projects, Martin Scorsese has found time to create another epic music documentary. Comparable to his 2005 No Direction Home: Bob Dylan in length, scope and comprehensiveness, George Harrison: Living in the Material World proves nearly equally rewarding, even if its subject doesn't necessarily compel the same sort of automatic anticipatory excitement. Extraordinary footage from both the Beatles era and post-'60s period, along with revelatory, often beguiling commentary from a host of intimates and a treasure trove of musical delights, combine to create a personality portrait of welcome depth about a musical giant who often seemed to stand a bit in the shadows of his more exuberant peers. After festival exposure in Telluride and New York, this richly satisfying, two-part, experience will be available to viewers on HBO beginning Oct. 5.our editor recommendsCANNES: Martin Scorsese and Olivia Harrison discuss their in-progress documentary about George HarrisonTelluride Lineup Features 'A Dangerous Method,' 'The Descendants' and 'Shame' Scorsese doesn't try to make a case either for Harrison being as an important an artist as Dylan or his band mates John Lennon and Paul McCartney, or for his having been somewhat neglected. But that the film entirely commands full attention for 209 minutes is itself testimony not only to its quality but to the idea that the public may have underestimated this old schoolmate of Paul's whose voice wasn't that great, who wasn't as cute as the other two original Beatles, didn't contribute many songs at first and got into that weird Indian sitar stuff but had perhaps the most diverse and unusual life journey of any of them. PHOTOS: Telluride Film Festival: 12 Movies to Know Opening with fantastic World War II English victory celebration footage that's new at least to American eyes, the film zooms through the subject's Liverpool youth ("He was cocky," one of his brothers avers) to the point where George, at 17, went to play in divey Hamburg clubs with the original configuration of what was to become The Beatles. Wonderfully intimate interviews with Klaus Voorman and, especially, his then-girlfriend Astrid Kirchherr, who took striking early photographs of the lads, bring those grungy, heady days poignantly alive. Then Beatlemania hits, with first-hand descriptions by Ringo Starr providing an inside feel to a cascade of what, again, is not overly familiar footage. Joan Taylor, wife of the group's press officer, amusingly describes the boys' first acid trip-done, per Paul, in an environment of "controlled weirdness"--although George claims on an excerpted Dick Cavett Show appearance that they didn't know they were taking LSD the first time they had it. Whereas India, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi and the sitar were essentially passing fancies for the other Beatles, for George they became staples of his life, with Taylor suggesting that, for him, spirituality and meditation provided a route to meaning and the inner self beyond chemicals. Musically, the Eastern diversion, which occupies a fair amount of screen time, still seems just that, a sort of experimental dead end when grafted onto Western pop, but George's sincere dedication to it is undoubted. Part One, which runs 94 minutes, ends with Yoko Ono making her entrance upon the scene and tension mounting to a point that, per Harrison, "was stifling us. It had to self-destruct." Nothing less than "My Guitar Gently Weeps" would do to bring this chapter to a close. For some time, George had quietly been stockpiling songs (some of which had been rejected by John and Paul), which explains how, after The Beatles broke up, he was able to so quickly come out with a triple album, "All Things Must Pass," loaded with great material. What follows in the 115-minute Part Two is variously exhilarating (the Concert for Bangladesh, The Traveling Wilburys), bizarre (Eric Clapton's obsession with George's wife Pattie, whom he eventually married, an interlude described by Clapton in rather defensively jokey fashion), idiosyncratic (George's purchase of an enormous Victorian estate) and illustrative of his increasingly diverse interests (his outlay of $4 million to rescue Monty Python's Life of Brian from cancellation and the creation of the enterprising HandMade Films, his close friendship with Formula 1 driver Jackie Stewart). PHOTOS: Venice Film Festival: 10 Movies to Know One major coup is a rare, amply sampled interview with Phil Spector, obviously made before his 2009 murder conviction. A producer on "Let It Be," "All Things" and "A Concert for Bangladesh," Spector is sometimes hilarious and even more often insightful, a real plus for the documentary. George's second wife Olivia gradually enters the frame (she is one the film's three producers), then comes the troubled end, with recurring illnesses aggravated by the shocking home invasion and physical assault that may have considerably shortened his life. Editor David Tedeschi, who also cut the Dylan film, surely shouldered an enormous share of the responsibility for organizing the voluminous and diverse material that comprises this vast tapestry, to an end result that is consistently engaging and vital. Some construction seems puzzling--no sooner are the youngsters in Liverpool introduced at the outset than the film jumps momentarily to The Beatles breaking up, there's scarce mention of the lads' film work (might this not have helped spur George's later entry into the film business?) and family and other personal details are sketchily presented at best. But, then, if you want every i dotted and t crossed, you should read a biography; here is the man himself, reticent, cagey but open to life, his mind occupied with many things, and his music and friends as well, all up on the screen. It's not a film one particularly expected to be made but it's a vastly welcome one.

Its awesome. Hes loving The Voice, Miranda told Access Hollywood of Blakes reality show, during an interview with her new group, Pistol Annies, in Beverly Hills on Monday. We would pile on the [tour] bus and watch it and I was kind of a fanatic about it, like, Dont talk during The Voice! But [Blake] didnt tell me any inside [info] I didnt want to know, she continued. I liked to watch as a fan, as a viewer. Blakes Voice experience has continued to live on, despite the show currently being on hiatus, as Miranda said theyve adopted his two favorite aspiring The Voice singers into their fold. Definitely weve taken on two new family members Dia Frampton and Xenia from the show, she told Access, adding that she and her new band are planning to write music with the two former Voice contestants. Pistol Annies is trying to get in on some of The Voice action. As for Blakes at-home antics, Miranda and bandmates Ashley Monroe and Angaleena Presley, said Blakes prank-loving goofy ways are not just for show. Hes pretty much the same all around, Miranda told Access. He likes to grab phones, Ashley revealed. Hes memorized my password and he likes to send some not nice messages to random people just for fun. He thinks its real funny. If I get a message from Miranda that like, makes me cry, Ill be like, BLAKE! Angaleena added, laughing. Mirandas and the Pistol Annies girls whose debut album, Hell on Heels hits stores on Tuesday have a long-running friendship, and both singers were part of Mirandas bridal party when she and Blake married in May. However, The House That Built Me singer revealed she and her now-husband chose not to have a maid of honor or best man at their nuptials. Blake and I didnt do that. We have such great friends, she explained. We had friends in the wedding that were from childhood and then friends from adulthood. So, we said that they were all maids of honor and best men because theyre all that close to us. Its hard to make new friends in this business so we cherish our friendships, she added. As for married life, Miranda said shes enjoying being a wife, but said having children is not an immediate priority. We have seven rescue dogs. So, no, Miranda told Access when asked if she and Blake are ready for children. Every time we get a new puppy we realize were not ready for a child! Copyright 2011 by NBC Universal, Inc.

EMMYS: Q&A With Scott Buck Of 'Dexter'

Six-time Emmy nominee Scott Buck had writing and creating stints on HBO's Six Ft Under and Rome before joining the Showtimeserial-killer-with-a-heart-of-gold drama Dexter because of its second season in 2007. He's labored his in place from co-executive producer toshowrunner (he was named last December) prior to shooting the shows sixth season thatpremieres on October second.Dexter arrived its4th consecutive Outstanding Drama Series Emmy nomination this time around around the firstShowtime series to accomplish this particular task. Buck spokewith Deadline TV Contributor RayRichmond: DEADLINE: So Dexter had its greatest rankings ever throughout Season Five. You averaged a lot more than 5 million audiences per week between regular TV as well as on-demand. But a big change is perfect for Season Six and you are elevatedto showrunner. Why? SCOTTBUCK: Yes, we'd just came off an excellent year. However the reveal that I had been arriving to operate had gone through lots of changes due to in which the story was alone. I suppose someone thought that the time had come for achange and Id gained the promotion. Though as Ive never operate a show before,it is not employment I take gently. Im swimming as quickly as I'm able to to chop lower on thelearning curve. DEADLINE: Usuallythese transitions arentsmooth. BUCK: Thatsprobably true. Personally i think fortunate for the reason that regard. It had been kind of a mixture ofmy being drafted and volunteering. Ive already found how different it isrunning a show from becoming an professional producer. During my previous job, theresponsibility was wholly writing. With this particular, Im supervisory the writing andeverything else. So its much more responsibilityand a bit more money. Letme just state that it wasnt a situation which i eagerly went after.I waspretty happy doing things i did before. Managing a show is definitely an entirely differentanimal. Its greatly a learning process, and Im doing the very best I'm able to.Thankfully, Im working with many different very wise, very skilled people. DEADLINE: Now Dexter makes Showtime Emmy history. BUCK: I had been because a author and executiveproducer, which Emmy nominations arent something which anybody around heretakes as a given. Your day the nominations emerge is definitely a large cause of celebrationand heading out for drinks. DEADLINE: Though itwould most likely be even cooler if everyone finally won within the dramacategory. BUCK: Ofcourse. But getting nominated each year is not too shabby, either. DEADLINE: How didyou arrived at Dexter in the 2ndseason? BUCK: I had been working onRome at that time when get married all heard the concept that Showtime could be doing ashow in which a serial killer was charge. It appeared just like a absurd idea thatno you ought to take seriously whatsoever. I am talking about, it simply seemed so hokey. But whenI heard Michael C. Hall could be starring, it got my attention, because I reliable hisjudgment.Its interesting how a concept has morphed. The Dexter characterhas developed a lot season after season. Hes remarkably different now than hewas at first. We'd the authors all re-watch Season One before we gotstarted this season of Season Six. We wanted to return to a number of that fun theyhad throughout the very first season. It startled us just how much Dexter themself had changedfrom individuals first couple of episodes. DEADLINE: So what can we expect for Season Six? BUCK: Weskipped ahead annually this year and washed the slate, and Dexter is finallydone grieving losing his wife in the finish of Season 4. Hes largely dealtwith that now in Season 6. Hes place it previously, and now be seeing astronger Dexter than in the past. And hopefully, we will not be killing off anymajor character this year. But head to feet, from your cast to the crew, weall feel especially excited and vitalized and motivated this season. DEADLINE: You have to getasked constantly when Dexteris finally likely to wrap like a series. BUCK: To beperfectly honest, it hasnt show up yet for discussion.Imean, counseled me confident that it'll show up. But weren't working towardthe finish at this time. How youll wrap may be the type of factor you'd like to learn atleast a season ahead of time, and that we havent talked about it yet whatsoever, so thatshould let you know something. Everybody may wish to sign in and theyll all do itwith a rather different concept of what ought to be done. And well definitelyhear everyones ideas. DEADLINE: So yourerunning a democracyon Dexter as opposed to a dictatorship? BUCK: Iguess I'm.

John Moore Might Take On Die Hard 5

And can it be occur Russia?Though everything has been fairly quiet about the Die Hard franchise front, the most recent development happened in Feb, with word that Noam Murro have been drawn on by twentieth century Fox to create John McClane to the giant screen.

And based on their sources, The Omen/Max Payne guy John Moore continues to be offered the gig. At this time, Moore has apparently learned that the opportunity to make McClane's existence tough once again is his to consider or turn lower, there is however naturally been no official confirmation of this. But Twitch also mentions the fifth instalment will discover the grouchy hero going to Russia to tangle with local forces alongside his boy. Skip Forest was the author most lately credited with bashing out a draft, but you never know the number of cooks happen to be introduced directly into focus on that broth?For the time being, all of this is rumour, there is however an opportunity we're able to soon learn more by what John McClane might depend on later on. Presuming Bruce Willis signs off onto it all...
