Kill List

Part of the BAMcinématek series Sneak Previews from IFC Films & Sundance Selects

Fri, Oct 21, 2011 at 9:30pm
NY Premiere!

Directed by Ben Wheatley
With Neil Maskell, Michael Smiley

(2011) 95min

“All at once funny, thrilling, mysterious, shocking and tragic.” —Sight & Sound

“Wheatley might be the most idiosyncratic and exciting
filmmaker the UK has produced since Shane Meadows.” —Time Out London

One of the biggest independent openings in the UK ever and quickly snatched up by IFC at its premiere at this year’s SXSW, Kill List marks the arrival of an “arthouse horror” auteur whom the British press has compared to such disparate local heroes as Mike Leigh, Harold Pinter, Ken Loach, and Alan Clarke.

Eight months after a disastrous job in Kiev left him physically and mentally scarred, Iraq veteran turned contract killer Jay is pressured by his partner Gal into taking a new assignment. As they descend into the dark, disturbing world of the contract, Jay begins to unravel once again—his fear and paranoia sending him deep into the heart of darkness. This white-knuckled thriller and “future classic” (Little White Lies) is definitely not for the faint of heart. An IFC Midnight Release.

The Forgiveness of Blood

Part of the BAMcinématek series Sneak Previews from IFC Films & Sundance Selects

Fri, Oct 21, 2011 at 6:50pm
Q&A with director Joshua Marston

NY Premiere

Directed by Joshua Marston
With Refet Abazi, Tristan Halilaj

(2011) 109min

“The contrasts between unspoiled countryside and urban development and the clash between rural intransigence and youthful impatience add depth to an accomplished and suspenseful drama.” —Hollywood Reporter

Winner of the Silver Bear at the Berlin International Film Festival, Marston’s follow-up to the critically acclaimed Maria Full of Grace follows Albanian teen Nik and his brother as they become the targets of a blood feud (a six-centuries-old law in Albania, still in place today) when their father kills their neighbor and goes into hiding. With the brothers unable to leave the house for fear of death, their 15-year-old sister takes over their father’s business, while Nik struggles with his incarceration. This tense, superbly acted drama is a plangent exploration of the clash of traditional values and those of the modern world. A Sundance Selects release.

Friday + Saturday, July 9-10
Q+A - 7PM show

This Father’s Day, the IFC Center is hosting a special screening of Josh and Benny Safdie’s acclaimed film DADDY LONGLEGS, one of the richest and most complex depictions of fatherhood in recent memory. Divorced and alone, Lenny (played by Ronald Bronstein with a startling mix of charm and self-absorption) is the father of two young boys who he gets to see a couple of weeks a year. He cherishes these days with the kids, being both stern parent and lovable buddy, inventing myths and somehow living them, all while working overtime in the big city. When the going gets tough, Lenny uses some unusual, perhaps even hazardous, techniques to keep the kids safe from the world. With a fluid style, the Safdie brothers capture the magic of parenthood, invoking memories of their inventive dad from their own childhood.

“Viciously amusing.” - The New York Times
“Terrific… ingenious.” - Movieline
“Pure comic genius… LOVERS OF HATE, very simply, deserves to be seen in any way possible.” - Cinemablend

In this savage comedy about deceit and sibling rivalry, two estranged brothers, Rudy and Paul, have nothing in common but their love for the same woman. When Paul whisks her away to a romantic mountain retreat, the lovers have no idea that Rudy has made it there first. From the shadows of the posh chalet, he tries desperately to sabotage the relationship in director Bryan Poyser’s brilliantly executed game of cat and mouse.

“[A] lovely hair-raising film”–A.O. Scott, The New York Times

“Darkly funny.”–Rob Nelson,Variety

“Utterly real and daringly intense.”–Richard Brody, The New Yorker

Lenny (Bronstein in a performance that The New Yorker called brilliant and audacious), a divorced dad with the maturity of Peter Pan and the playful streak of an imp on acid, has custody of his two young sons for two weeks. What begins as an anarchic lark descends into chaos and dangerous living as Lenny continues to heed lower Manhattan’s call of the wild while juggling his job as a movie theater projectionist with the demands of parenthood, falling earnestly and amazingly short of the mark all around. Directors Josh and Benny Safdie, who loosely based the story on their own childhood experiences, bring hilarity and terror to this saga of life on the edge. 35mm. (BS)

Directors Josh Safdie and Benny Safdie will be present for audience discussion at all screenings on Friday and Saturday.

“An impressive experiment in genre in more ways than one: a pulp fiction of troublesome dames and distinctly costumed villains, wedded to conversational comedy, while also a subtle exploration of friendship… Nobody does unspoken tension and unforced sensuality quite like Aaron Katz.” —LA Weekly

When his life in Chicago implodes, forensic science graduate Doug gives up his pursuit of science and returns to Portland, Oregon to work in an ice factory, read Sherlock Holmes novels, spend time with his sister, and generally mope around. Yet, just as director Aaron Katz lures the viewer into expecting another study of 20-something ennui, he turns the plot on its head when Doug’s ex-girlfriend mysteriously disappears. With sublimely lyrical visuals by cinematographer Andrew Reed, Katz (Dance Party, USA) ratchets up the suspense while playfully riffing on the standard mystery genre tropes, casting Doug’s sister as the Watson character and reimagining that relationship as an exploration of familial communication.

“Does a superb job of tapping into a lot of our worst nightmares with some dark, intelligent comedy, and then completely screws us over by making it relatable and believable.” —Cinematical

In the dog house with his wife, sleeping in his car, and working as a census taker, 30-something Rudy (a hilariously deadpan Chris Doubek) sees his life go from bad to worse when his brother (Alex Karpovsky), the author of a successful Harry Potter knockoff, rolls into town and vies for his ex. Bryan Poyser’s dark comedy mines the rich terrain of sibling rivalry with a flurry of caustic one-liners. Yet it’s the film’s melancholic undercurrent—an evocation of the bitterness engendered by a lifetime of small failures and petty jealousies—that imbues Lovers of Hate with an unexpected resonance.
