    Content: The world sometimes seems divided into two camps: those who recall their teenage years as having been an exhilarating dream, and those who remember them as having been an infernal, nightmarish hell. So it might do to describe "Passe ton bac d'abord" [Graduate First / "Pass Your Bac First" as Maurice Pialat's "The Best Years of Our Lives", while bearing in mind all that such a description might suggest: an unsparing portrait of the era when the words ĺsixteen candles' still might have first conjured the image of flames. A group of young actors including several local unknowns - Philippe Marlaud, Bernard Tronczyk, Patrick Lepczynski, and Sabine Haudepin (once the little girl of Truffaut's Jules et Jim), among others - make up the cluster of friends adrift beneath the twilight of their school years. There's drama, violence, and pot-induced laughs - group holidays, indiscriminate sex, advances from teachers twenty-five years their seniors, attempted moves to Paris, and few prospects of passing the bac, the final set of exams French students take before embarking into the world to do what? Marking the last work of Pialat's turbulent cycle of films made in the 1970s, Passe ton bac d'abord" is the brilliant spiritual sequel to the great filmmaker's feature-debut L'Enfance-nue - with the action taking place in the same region as the earlier film, ten years on. The Masters of Cinema Series is proud to present Pialat's teenage drama in a beautiful new transfer for the first time on home video in the UK. (Covertext)
    Content: Extras: - New anamorphic transfer of the film in its original 1.66:1 aspect ratio - A 2003 video interview with Pialat collaborators Arlette Langmann and Patrick Grandperret, made by Serge Toubiana (former editor-in-chief of Cahiers du cinéma and director of the Cinémathèque Française) [11:00] - Après le bac [After the Bac] a 2003 documentary by Serge Toubiana and Sonia Buchman that catches up with the cast and location [26:00] - Original trailer for the film, and trailers for the six other Maurice Pialat features available from The Masters of Cinema Series - 52-page booklet containing a new essay by Craig Keller, three newly translated interviews with Maurice Pialat, and Pialat's responses to a 1981 "cinema survey"

    Series Statement: The masters of cinema series : [BD] 151
    Content: Named one of the ten best British films of the century by the British Film Institute, Ken Loach's Kes, is cinema's quintessential portrait of working-class Northern England. Billy (an astonishingly naturalistic David Bradley) is a fifteen-year-old miner's son whose close bond with a wild kestrel provides him with a spiritual escape from his dead-end life. Kes brought to the big screen the sociopolitical engagement Loach had established in his work for the BBC, and pushed the British "angry young man" film of the sixties into a new realm of authenticity, using real locations and nonprofessional actors. Loach's poignant coming-of-age drama remains the now legendary director's most beloved and influential film. (Criterion)

    Edition: Special Dual Format Edition
    Series Statement: The Masters of Cinema Series : [Medienkombination] 30
    Content: Based on an unpublished novella by John Steinbeck (written on commission expressly to provide treatment material for Hitchcock's screen scenario), Lifeboat found the Master of Suspense navigating a course of maximal tension - in the most minimal of settings - with a consistently inventive, beautifully paced drama that would foreshadow the single-set experiments of Rope and Dial M for Murder. After a Nazi torpedo reduces an ocean liner to wooden splinters and scorched personal effects, the survivors of the attack pull themselves aboard a drifting lifeboat in the hope of eventual rescue. But the motivations of the German submarine captain (played by Walter Slezak) on the eponymous craft might extend beyond mere survival. With a cast including Shadow of a Doubt veteran Hume Cronyn and the extraordinary, irrepressible Tallulah Bankhead, this "picture of characters", as François Truffaut aptly termed the film, oscillates dazzlingly between comic repartée and white-knuckle suspense - a perfect example of "the Hitchcock touch". The Masters of Cinema Series is proud to present the Oscar-nominated Lifeboat in a Dual Format edition (Blu-ray and DVD), accompanied by Hitchcock's two French-language wartime shorts, Bon voyage and Aventure malgache. (Eureka)
    Content: Extras: New high-definition master, officially licensed from Twentieth Century Fox ł New high-definition 1080p transfers of Hitchcock̷s little-seen French-language 1944 wartime films, Bon voyage (26 minutes) and Aventure malgache (32 minutes) officially licensed from the British Film Institute ł Optional English subtitles on all three films ł 20-minute documentary on the making of Lifeboat ł 12-minute excerpt from the legendary 1962 audio interviews between Hitchcock and François Truffaut, discussing Lifeboat and the wartime shorts ł PLUS: A 36-page booklet featuring new and exclusive essays on all three films by critics Bill Krohn, Arthur Mas, and Martial Pisani

    ISBN: 9780367355111 , 9780367355104
    Content: "The Shakespeare Masterclasses is a collection of rare interviews from many of the world's most renowned Shakespearean actors, exploring their varied approaches to topics including character creation, script analysis, acting for the stage and the camera, rehearsal, preparation, and collaboration. Ron Destro's insightful and revealing conversations with thirteen accomplished artists provide the reader with the invaluable experience of sitting in the classroom with each of these masters. A selection of Shakespeare plays including Hamlet, The Winter's Tale, King Lear and The Tempest are examined to explore antithesis, line-endings, rhyme and meter, method acting and the artistry of a good director. In addition to critical analysis of their vocation, the actors weave through personal and humorous anecdotes and favourite acting moments, and offer useful movement and vocal exercises. This book offers a lens into the creative process of world-acclaimed actors to expose an abundance of tips, tools and fascinating stories about the acting profession that will be of crucial interest to acting students, directors, drama teachers, Shakespeare performance scholars and general theatre fans more broadly"--

    Series Statement: Routledge research in music series
    Content: "Performing Arts in Changing Societies is a detailed exploration of genre development within the fields of dance, theatre and opera in selected European countries during the decades before and after 1800. An introductory chapter outlines the theoretical and ideological background of genre thinking in Europe, starting from Antiquity. A further fourteen chapters cover the performing genres as they developed in England, France, Germany, and Austria, and follow the dissemination and adaptation of the corresponding genres in minor and major cities in the Nordic countries. With a strong emphasis on the role that pragmatic and contextual factors had in defining genres, the book examines such subjects as the dancing-masters in Christiania (Oslo), circa 1800, the repertory and travels of an itinerant acrobat and his wife in Norway in the 1760s and the influence of Enlightenment ideas on bourgeois drama in Denmark. Including detailed analyses in the light of material, political, and social factors, this is a valuable resource for scholars and researchers in the fields of musicology, opera studies, and theatre and performance studies"--
