Roberto's doorstep in the Bronx


Pictures of a shoot

I've just finished working on a film shoot for french TV. A documentary about the film "King Kong", the 1933 version.

Preparing a set for an interview, we had the windows of this flat cleaned just before the shoot

Alice Guy Blaché

Until January 24th at The Whitney Museum of American Art.
"This is the first comprehensive retrospective of the films of Alice Guy Blaché (1873-1968), a key but unsung figure of the early years of cinema, the first woman director, and the first woman to establish and preside over her own film studio. Between 1896 and 1920, first in France and then in the United States, she wrote, directed, supervised, and/or produced more than 1,000 films. These ranged from short films of less than a minute's duration to full-length multi-reel features and include some hand-tinted in color, and more than one hundred films with synchronized sound made between 1902 and 1906, some twenty years before sound revolutionized motion pictures as we now know them."
