A personal essay about the United States, viewed through the life and work of a movie actor. Henry Fonda and the roles he played merge into a dazzling and conflicted figure. A very private man who thought he had “no good answers to anything” becomes the unlikely motor of a parallel history. His voice, recorded during his last interview in 1981, and his onscreen avatars guide us through America’s past and present – on a road trip from the village of Fonda, NY, across the Midwest to the Pacific; from 1651 to the 1980s and the presidency of another movie actor. It takes many places and times and characters to imagine an invisible republic – the United States of Fonda.
Building on our opening-night picks, the theme of our first weekly repertory series is movie theaters. During the construction of Partizanfilm, we had occasion to think about what they mean to us and to revisit some of the films whose narratives include them prominently.
Do we go to the movies for solitude or for community? To enter life through art or to escape it through entertainment? And for how much longer will we have a chance to do either?
Burlington wasn’t the only town that lost its moviehouse in recent years — the number of film auditoriums in the United States has declined by several thousand since the pandemic. But COVID-19 wasn’t the motion picture exhibition industry’s first killer. It has heard a variety of death knells over the last 75 years: first, television; then, VCR; and finally, streaming. It’s been dying almost as long as it’s lived.
Every cinema is a dreamworld — one always senses reality’s wrecking ball around the corner. Partizanfilm is our own tiny utopia, and we hope you’ll want to fight for it with us. Join us every Wednesday for a well-loved classic or a forgotten gem.
The Long Day Closes (1992) - Drama - 85 min. - United Kingdom - English - Director: Terence Davies - Tickets
Wed. 12/10 - 6:55
The Long Day Closes is the most gloriously cinematic expression of the unique sensibility of Terence Davies, widely celebrated as Britain’s greatest living filmmaker. Suffused with both enchantment and melancholy, this autobiographical film takes on the perspective of a quiet, lonely boy growing up in Liverpool in the 1950s. But rather than employ a straightforward narrative, Davies jumps in and out of time, swoops into fantasies and fears, summons memories and dreams.
Mary Jane’s Not a Virgin Anymore (1996) - Comedy - 95 min. - United States - English - Director: Sarah Jacobson - Trailer - Tickets
Wed. 12/17 - 8:30
Sarah Jacobson's punk-spirited DIY films from the 1990s combine B-movie aesthetics and riot grrrl feminism, standing as a testament to the vision, determination, and raw talent of the Queen of Underground Cinema. Her only feature is a vibrant and vital antidote to every phony Hollywood teen picture, bringing lo-fi realness to the coming-of-age genre.
Targets (1968) - Thriller - 90 min. - United States - English - Director: Peter Bogdanovich - Tickets
Wed. 12/24
After unhinged Vietnam vet Bobby Thompson (Tim O'Kelly) kills his wife and mother, he goes on a brutal shooting spree. Starting at an oil refinery, he evades the police and continues his murderous outing at a drive-in movie theater, where Byron Orlock (Boris Karloff), a retiring horror film icon, is making a promotional appearance. Before long, Orlock, a symbol of fantastical old-fashioned scares, faces off against Thompson, a remorseless psychopath rooted in a harsh modern reality.
A Useful Life - Comedy - 67 min. - Uruguay, Spain - Spanish - Director: Federico Veiroj - Trailer - Tickets
