GME STREAMLINE PRESENTS BERNARDO BERTOLUCCI’S THE CONFORMIST NOW AVAILABLE FOR DIGITAL SITE LICENSING

April 05, 2021/ Jon Gartenberg

Continuing our release of GME Streamline titles from the Kino Lorber collection, we are excited to now offer Bernardo Bertolucci’s cinematic masterpiece, THE CONFORMIST (1970). This film is both a searing study of sexuality and politics set in 1930’s Italy and a triumph of opulent visual storytelling. Bertolucci combines a flawless aesthetic with a deep emphasis on composition, design, and camerawork to slowly build a devastating portrait of the kind of personality that allows fascism to flourish. The protagonist, Marcello (played by Jean-Louis Trintignant), spends much of the film being followed by fascist henchmen who are shadowing him to ensure he carries out his orders.

GME STREAMLINE PRESENTS CURTIS HARRINGTON’S NIGHT TIDE STARRING DENNIS HOPPER

March 25, 2021/ Jon Gartenberg

Harrington's debut feature, NIGHT TIDE (1961), stars a youthful Dennis Hopper in his first leading role, as a sailor who falls in love. Set in a seaside amusement park in Venice, California, Harrington blends a romantic mystery story with elements of film noir and the horror genre. The characters, locations, motifs, and themes present in Harrington's PICNIC (1948) – an amorous couple, parental authority, the seaside locale, the presence of sea monsters, and death – are transformed by Harrington in NIGHT TIDE from an experimental vision into a suspenseful narrative. The location photography by Vilis Lapenieks, the studio cinematography by Floyd Crosby (HIGH NOON, 1952), and the jazzy, melodic score by David Raksin (LAURA, 1944), all enrich the brooding atmosphere of the film.

Philippe Garrel's THE SALT OF TEARS (2019) Streaming from Film Forum

January 18, 2021/ Jon Gartenberg

“Philippe Garrel, a prodigy of the French cinema (whose work was first included in the New York Film Festival in 1970, when he was twenty-two), has developed a spare method, a self-imposed classicism of dramatic intimacy… [THE SALT OF TEARS] rises very high with its fusion of brusque candor and unspoken yearnings…feels like a revisitation of the austerities, aspirations, and humiliations of an earlier age, a return to primordial experiences and artistic ambitions… The film also happens to have one of the best dance scenes in the recent cinema.”
