Jim Jarmusch - USA – 1984 – fiction – black&white – 88’ – OV – STT FR / NL
A young Jim Jarmusch directs this accomplished film, at once laconic and funny. A young Hungarian woman turns up in the New York apartment of her cousin and his equally clueless mate. The three head for Cleveland, where Eva’s aunt lives, and then she leaves again, after an existential and geographic road movie where love timidly shows its face. The black-and-white photography is by Tom DiCillo, and it’s perfectly suited to Jarmusch’s charming brand of minimalism

Rainer Werner Fassbinder - D – 1982 – fiction – black & white – 104’ – OV – STT FR / NL
Fourth instalment in Fassbinder’s tetralogy about post-war Germany, shown through the portraits of four women (Lili Marleen, Maria Braun, etc). In this film the heroine is a former star of the film company UFA, now an alcoholic and drug addict facing a grim fate. Rosel Zech plays the lead, and Xavier Schwarzengerger’s black-and-white photography is remarkably well suited to the portrayal of this cold and cruel society with no place for generosity or dreams.

Martin Scorsese - USA – 1980 – fiction - black & white + color – 126’ – OV – STT NL / FR
Powerful evocation of the life and career of Italo-American boxer Jake La Motta and arguably one of Martin Scorsese’s best movies. A brilliant Robert De Niro plays the champion who wins in the ring while his private life disintegrates. Michael Chapman’s black-and-white photography is rich in contrasts and the fight scenes, filmed with rare intensity, are among the best ever.
With: Robert de Niro, Cathy Moriarty, Joe Pesci
