Fear and Moviegoing in Toronto – Winter 2020: TIFF Cinemathèque – Let's Dance: The Films of Angela Schanelec – The Dreamed Path (2016) and I Was At Home, But… (2019)

For our first COVID-19-era Lightbox retrospective episode, we look at the enigmatic cinema of Angela Schanelec. We focus on her two most recent films, THE DREAMED PATH (2016) and I WAS AT HOME, BUT... (2019). Then, in our final, presciently-named Fear and Moviegoing in Toronto segment for "the duration", it's the last Bressons of TIFF's anniversary retrospective that we were able to see (LANCELOT DU LAC, A GENTLE WOMAN, and his only (?) comedy, FOUR NIGHTS OF A DREAMER), plus we celebrate the emotional generosity of Coppola's PEGGY SUE GOT MARRIED.   Time Codes: 0h 01m 00s:          Schanelec Prolegomenon 0h 07m 21s:          The Dreamed Path [German title: Der traumhafte Weg] (2016) 0h 39m 13s:          I was at Home, But… [German title: Ich war zuhause, aber] (2019)                          1h 22m 28s:          Pre-Quarantine cinemagoing: Une femme douce (1969); Quatre nuits d'un rêveur (1971); Lancelot du lac (1974) [all Dir: Robert Bresson]; Peggy Sue Got Married (1986/dir: Francis Ford Coppola) @ The Revue +++ * Check out our Complete Upcoming Episode Schedule * Find Elise's latest published film piece "Making America Strange Again: Gangs of New York" in issue #80 Bright Wall/Dark Room* *And Read Elise's Writing at Bright Wall/Dark Room, Cléo, and Bright Lights.* Follow us on Twitter at @therebuggy Write to us at [email protected] Theme Music: "What's Yr Take on Cassavetes?" – Le Tigre
