4 Shots From 4 Films: Special Pier Paolo Pasolini Edition


4 Shots From 4 Films is just what it says it is, 4 shots from 4 of our favorite films. As opposed to the reviews and recaps that we usually post, 4 Shots From 4 Films lets the visuals do the talking!

101 years ago, on this date, Pier Paolo Pasolini was born in Italy.  His controversial films and his mysterious death continue to inspire debate to this very day.  Both the man and his works were full of intriguing contradictions.  Pasolini was an atheist who made one of the best Biblical films ever made.  He was a communist who made films that celebrated individual freedom and who had little use for the upper class liberals who made up much of the European counterculture of the 1960s.  In the end, he was an artist unafraid to challenge all assumptions, whether they were found on the right or the left.  His final film, Salo, was the most controversial of his career.  It was also projected to be the first part of a trilogy, though those plans were ended by Pasolini’s murder.

4 Shots From 4 Films: Special Adrian Lyne Edition


4 Shots From 4 Films is just what it says it is, 4 shots from 4 of our favorite films. As opposed to the reviews and recaps that we usually post, 4 Shots From 4 Films lets the visuals do the talking!

Today’s the Shattered Lens wishes a happy 82nd birthday to the British director, Adrian Lyne!  Lyne was one of the many British director to start his career by making commercials.  (Alan Parker and Tony and Ridley Scott also followed a same career path.)  He brought the same technique that inspired people to buy products to his films and the enf result was some of the most stylish films of the 80s, 90s, and the aughts.  Lyne hasn’t directed many films but his lasting influence cannot be denied.

It’s times for….

4 Shots From 4 Films: Special Martin Ritt Edition


4 Shots From 4 Films is just what it says it is, 4 shots from 4 of our favorite films. As opposed to the reviews and recaps that we usually post, 4 Shots From 4 Films lets the visuals do the talking!

On this day, 109 years ago, Martin Ritt was born in New York City.  Like many of the Hollywood directors who came to prominence in the 1950s, he started his directorial career in the theater before moving over to live TV.  In 1952, his television career was derailed when he was accused of being a communist.  Blacklisted, it would be five years before Ritt could get another directing job.  When he did start to work again, he moved from television into the movies, starting with 1957’s Edge of the City.  Perhaps due to his own experiences, his films always had a social conscience and always defended the individual against corrupt corporations and governments.  In 1976, he directed one of the first films about the Hollywood blacklist, The Front.

As a director, Ritt was known for his skill with actors.  More than anyone, he played a huge role in making stars out of both Paul Newman and Sally Field.  He was also one of the few directors to understand how to harness Richard Burton’s self-destructive tendencies and, as a result, Burton gave one of his best performances in Ritt’s adaptation of The Spy Who Came In From The Cold.

4 Shots From 4 Films: Special Zack Snyder Edition


4 Shots From 4 Films is just what it says it is, 4 shots from 4 of our favorite films. As opposed to the reviews and recaps that we usually post, 4 Shots From 4 Films lets the visuals do the talking!

Today, the Shattered Lens wishes a happy 57th birthday to Zack Snyder!  Zack Snyder has been a favorite (and occasionally a not-so-favorite) of many of the people who have written for this site.  Speaking for myself, I loved Sucker Punch and disliked Man of Steel.  (Arleigh, for the record, liked both.) But Snyder is a filmmaker about whom no one seems to be neutral.  That’s definitely something of which to take some pride.  I was not a fan of the whole idea behind the Oscar Fan Favorite nonsense last year, there was something satisfying about both of those awards being won by films directed by a man who Hollywood has often tried to dismiss.

In honor of Zack Snyder’s birthday, here are….
