There's been a slight (and pretty cool) epidemic, as of late, of world class filmmakers slipping their movies completely under the radar until they are edited and finished and premiering at festivals (see: Noah Baumbach). The latest director to add to that list is one Paul Thomas Anderson whose mysterious India exploits with Jonny Greenwood were actually the fruits of his first-ever documentary.
That's right... PTA made a documentary! The film is called Junun and will premiere at the 53rd New York Film Festival in the Special Events category. It comes in just under an hour long and here's NYFF website has to say about it:
Notably, as you'll see in the photographs in the above link in this post, PTA shot this one (at least in part) digitally. We can't wait to see what his first outing in that format yielded. With Pinocchio potentially getting underway soon, the fact that PTA has kept busy with this and the Joanna Newsom music video is very exciting. Stay tuned!Paul Thomas Anderson, USA, 2015, DCP, 54mEnglish, Hindu, Hebrew, and Urdu with English subtitlesEarlier this year, Paul Thomas Anderson joined his close friend and collaborator Jonny Greenwood on a trip to Rajasthan in northwest India, where they were hosted by the Maharaja of Jodhpur, and he brought his camera with him. Their destination was the 15th-century Mehrangarh Fort, where Greenwood (with the help of Radiohead engineer Nigel Godrich) was recording an album with Israeli composer Shye Ben Tzur and an amazing group of musicians: Aamir Bhiyani, Soheb Bhiyani, Ajaj Damami, Sabir Damami, Hazmat, and Bhanwaru Khan on brass; Ehtisham Khan Ajmeri, Nihal Khan, Nathu Lal Solanki, Narsi Lal Solanki, and Chugge Khan on percussion; Zaki Ali Qawwal, Zakir Ali Qawwal, Afshana Khan, Razia Sultan, Gufran Ali, and Shazib Ali on vocals; and Dara Khan and Asin Khan on strings. The finished film, just under an hour, is pure magic. Junun lives and breathes music, music-making, and the close camaraderie of artistic collaboration. It’s a lovely impressionistic mosaic and a one-of-a-kind sonic experience: the music will blow your mind. World Premiere

ReplyDeleteHow to Write 'first documentary ever':
ReplyDeleteRight: first documentary ever.
Wrong: first-ever documentary.
Wow! You did well in English. Good job! We're all very impressed. Not everybody does well in English. Some are Math people. Not you!
DeleteBut you know, there are millions of other websites on the internet, and they might not be aware of how well you did in English. Maybe you should go let them know, since we get it at this point. I'm sure it eats you up inside knowing there are all these other sites with readers just begging to read your worthwhile critiques. Take your ego up on it, and go make the rest of the internet world the better place you've made this.
Both are acceptable. Bush league trolling.

Wrong: PTA
How to Make an Insufferable Comment on Just About Every Cigs and Red Vines Story:
DeleteSee: Mongolophile
Annoying isn't it? Stop treating everybody as your supposed pupil. What you've been doing is far more obnoxious than whether or not the above poster put a dash here or a period there.
Right: DICK
DeleteWrong: D.I.C.K
NASA is an acronym. PTA is an initialism. Punctuation is optional.

ReplyDeleteJust a side note regarding Pinnochio I haven't seen mentioned anywhere.
ReplyDeleteCoppolla was working on an adaptation for Warner Bros in the 90's that fell apart.....
Seeing as PTA knows Coppolla I wonder was he influenced to take up the project based on some of his ideas.
And there's AI, of course. Another WB movie.
DeleteYes but A.I was eventually made. Coppolla's Pinnochio fell apart and he sued Warner Bros and won 80 million in court. Maybe Paul will be taking on board some of Coppolla's ideas.
Deletehttp://www.nytimes.com/1998/07/10/us/coppola-awarded-80-million-for-unmade-pinocchio-movie.html
Right, gotcha. I thought you were just talking about Pinocchio movies by filmmakers he admires :P
DeleteCould be but somehow I feel like this is an entirely different thing. Would be interesting, though. The more I think about this Pinocchio thing, the more it intrigues me.
Thanks for sharing this great article! That is very interesting I love reading and I am always searching for informative information like this.

I was diagnosed as HEPATITIS B carrier in 2013 with fibrosis of the
ReplyDeleteliver already present. I started on antiviral medications which
reduced the viral load initially. After a couple of years the virus
became resistant. I started on HEPATITIS B Herbal treatment from
ULTIMATE LIFE CLINIC (www.ultimatelifeclinic.com) in March, 2020. Their
treatment totally reversed the virus. I did another blood test after
the 6 months long treatment and tested negative to the virus. Amazing
treatment! This treatment is a breakthrough for all HBV carriers.
Very interesting read. I've suffered with herpes ever since I was a child but it's only been the last few years that I discovered that I have genital herpes. So I started looking for a way to cure this deadly virus. I visited so many hospitals in search of a solution but it never worked out.so I started searching for a cure to my herpes virus.
ReplyDeleteFew month ago I came across a site where a lady was sharing a testimony about Dr OHIKHOBO about how he cured herpes and all kinds of diseases with is natural herbs so I decided to give it a try so I email the Dr he told me how I was going to get the herbs so I did as he instructed few days later I received the herbs and I started taking the herbs as instructed by the Dr.
I was shocked two weeks after when my doctor told me that I was free from herpes so I decided to let the world know how I was cured from herpes by Dr OHIKHOBO. you can reach him through his email: drohikhoboherbalcenter@gmail.com if you also want a cure for your herpes or any of the diseases listed below because the Dr says he also has a cure for them.CÁNCER
