Mr. Smith Goes To Washington directed by Frank Capra.

Abstract: Naive and idealistic Jefferson Smith, leader of the Boy Rangers, is appointed on a lark by the spineless governor of his state. He is reunited with the state's senior senator--presidential hopeful and childhood hero, Senator Joseph Paine. In Washington, however, Smith discovers many of the shortcomings of the political process as his earnest goal of a national boys' camp leads to a conflict with the state political boss, Jim Taylor. Taylor first tries to corrupt Smith and then later attempts to destroy Smith through a scandal.

Le Mepris / Directed by Jean-Luc Godard.

Abstract: On Capri, an Italian crew makes a German film of Homer's "Odyssey"; Fritz Lang directs with American money. Jeremy Prokosch, the producer, with his sneer and his red Alfa Romeo, holds art films in contempt and hires writer Javal to help Lang commercialize the picture. Against this backdrop, we watch the breakup of Javal's marriage to Camille, a young former typist. It opens with the couple talking in bed, she asking for assurance that he finds her attractive. Later that day, he introduces her to Prokosch and, unawares, blunders unforgivably. The rest of the film portrays her, in their apartment and in public, expressing her hurt and change of heart and his slow grasp of the source of her contempt.

Leonardo's incessant Last Supper / Leo Steinberg.

New York : Zone Books, 2001.

Abstract: A picture universally recognized, endlessly scrutinized and described, incessantly copied, adapted, lampooned: does Leonardo's near-ruined Last Supper still offer anything new to be seen or to be said? This book is a resounding Yes to both questions. With direct perception -- -and with attention paid to the work of earlier scholars and to the criticism embodied in the production of copyists over the past five hundred years -- Leo Steinberg demonstrates that Leonardo's mural has been consistently oversimplified. This most thought-out picture in Western art, painted in the 1490s on the north wall of the refectory of Santa Maria delle Grazie, Milan, is a marvel of compressed meanings. Its subject is not one arrested moment, but successiveness and duration. It is not only Christ's announcement of the forthcoming betrayal, but in equal measure the institution of the Eucharist. More than the spur of the moment animates the disciples, and more than perspective determines their housing. Though Leonardo's geometry obeys all rules, it responds as well to Christ's action at center, as if in emanation from the prime mover. The picture is simultaneously narrative and sacramental. As its protagonist is two-natured, as the twofold event of this night is both human submission and divine dispensation -- -so the entire picture is shown to have been conceived in duplexity: a sublime pun.Meanwhile, the unending disagreement as to what exactly is represented, what the depicted actions express, how and where this assembly is seated -- -all these still-raging disputes are traced to a single mistaken assumption: that Leonardo intended throughout to be unambiguous and clear, and that any one meaning necessarily rules out every other.As Steinberg reveals an abundance of significant interrelations previously overlooked, Leonardo's masterpiece regains the freshness of its initial conception and the power to fascinate.

The Last Samurai / by Edward Zwick

Abstract: In the 1870s, Captain Nathan Algren, a cynical veteran of the American Civil war who will work for anyone, is hired by Americans who want lucrative contracts with the Emperor of Japan to train the peasant conscripts for the first standing imperial army in modern warfare using firearms. The imperial Omura cabinet's first priority is to repress a rebellion of traditionalist Samurai -hereditary warriors- who remain devoted to the sacred dynasty but reject the Westernizing policy and even refuse firearms. Yet when his ill-prepared superior force sets out too soon, their panic allows the sword-wielding samurai to crush them. Badly wounded Algren's courageous stand makes the samurai leader Katsumoto spare his life; once nursed to health he learns to know and respect the old Japanese way, and participates as advisor in Katsumoto's failed attempt to save the Bushido tradition, but Omura gets repressive...

James Turrell : Geometrie des Lichts / herausgegeben von Ursula Sinnreich = James Turrell : geometry of light / edited by Ursula Sinnreich.

Ostfildern : Hatje Cantz, 2009.

Abstract: Il progetto artistico che il volume illustra consiste nella realizzazione, all'interno di un cratere vulcanico spento, situato nel Painted Desert nel nord-est dell'Arizona, di un insieme di camere ipogee, collegate da tunnel e predisposte per accogliere la luce desertica, diurna e notturna, offrendola ai visitatori secondo modalità sperimentate in vitro da James Turrell nelle sue celebri installazioni luminose. Lo scopo dell'artista è quello di indurre una dilatazione degli organi sensoriali così che il visitatore sappia farsi ricettivo ad ogni presenza fotonica, sia che essa giunga dal sole, dalla luna o da stelle lontane anni luce; ma anche ad ogni suono, proveniente sia dai dintorni terrestri, sia dall'immenso spazio siderale che lo circonda. Il volume documenta il progetto e i singoli ambienti che lo costituiscono attraverso modelli digitali in grado di prefigurare non solo il compiuto aspetto finale, da un punto di vista architettonico e paesaggistico, ma anche la funzione di osservatorio di particolari eventi astronomici visibili ad occhio nudo.
