There's a touch of Wes Anderson to director Susan Johnson's carefully composed frames, depicting the fetchingly smooth-featured suburbia in which Lara Jean lives, but the film's heart belong to another auteur whose perspective has always been firmly white: '80s teen movie maestro John Hughes.

Yes, the archetypal auteur who repeatedly wound up in the screenplay races (for Boogie Nights, Magnolia, There Will Be Blood, and Inherent Vice) but rarely in the Best Picture race (only once before, with There Will Be Blood) has now had the tables turned.

It is manifestly unfair to compare the work of a near-universally admired auteur to an odd, ambitious independent film, but "Knives and Skin" owes so much to David Lynch, particularly "Twin Peaks," that it feels wrong to pretend it exists in a vacuum.

The much beloved Oscar winner of 1942 has long posed a problem for strict auteurists, for whom the director Michael Curtiz is too indistinguishable from the next guy to cut it as a full-fledged auteur; Andrew Sarris put him in the "Lightly Likable" category.

The record's auteur hadn't released any more music since those 1993 recordings, and he wasn't playing any live gigs, but the tape developed a sort of cult fandom thanks to Shimkovitz's blog and the rapturous reception it'd begun to receive at his DJ gigs around the world.

Perhaps it's that a high-minded film auteur would not seem to possess a wacky enough personality to pair with a woman who earned a living parodying Beyoncé from Destiny's Child as "Britanica" from "Gemini's Twin"; perhaps it's that Maya Rudolph is not Daniel Day-Lewis.

His father's brother, for instance, threatened to sue him and his publisher after reading the manuscript of Book 1, insisting that all "errors of documentary fact" be removed — a demand that inevitably leads Knausgaard the auteur to ponder what a "fact" of a remembered life might be.

C.K.'s Glen idolizes Malkovich's auteur, much as C.K. reveres Woody Allen, and one way of looking at C.K.'s movie is as a kind of Manhattan answer record, extending and undermining that film's romantic portrait of a romance between a middle-aged man and a teenage girl.

Veteran filmmakers also factor into the mix: Festival-circuit darling Terrence Malick brings auteur firepower to Voyage of Time: Life's Journey, an ambitious documentary 30 years in the making that – in a typical Malick-ian excursion of existentialism and exposition – tackles the birth, past and future of the cosmos.

It takes just a glance at the visual aspects of the production — the vampire-white makeup on Mr. Baryshnikov's face would probably suffice, actually — to clock his collaborator in this misguided enterprise: Robert Wilson, the theater auteur known for his chilly and glacially paced, if often hypnotically beautiful, work.

Negativity isn't exactly O'Rourke's thing—he's more of a skateboard-in-a-parking-lot, air-drum-to The-Who kind of guy—so Houston native Richard Linklater stepped in fight back for him, taking a break from auteur cinema to try his hand at making a negative political ad.

Take the new version of "Company" opening on Broadway this month, in which the director Marianne Elliott (with Sondheim's encouragement — he's the least precious auteur ever) keeps the score pretty much as it is but flips the prototypical toxic bachelor Bobby to a biological-clock-watching woman named Bobbie.

|

Just as in True Detective when, by the end of the third episode, the viewer grasped the concept that the show was more than another police procedural, "Go for Broke" establishes Atlanta as something more than another drama from a comedian-auteur with artsy aspirations, more than a black comedy.

But it wasn't until that film's long-gestating sequel Aliens arrived in 1986, written and directed by future action auteur James Cameron, that Ripley truly emerged as an ass-kicking action heroine for the ages as she took on an entire hoard of the seemingly unstoppable invaders and their gargantuan queen.

Pop-punk duo Girlpool have released their first new single since last year's much-lauded Powerplant LP.

Katja Nicodemus, a longtime Berlinale observer who is a reporter and critic with Die Zeit, said in an email that this year's program seemed "intriguing and persuasively curated," but noted that, like Dieter Kosslick, the new doppelspitze had not been able to attract the top ranks of auteur filmmakers to Berlin.

The auteur knows how to build anticipation as well as any horror helmer, and he takes the time to establish the contentious rhythm between Elio and Oliver over the early weeks of the latter's visit, ratcheting up the sexual tension until their eventual union feels as explosive as it does inevitable.

Our auteur—he did not want to be identified, and so I will not identify him—recognized what is arguably the most histrionic chunk of Celine Dion's historically overwrought "My Heart Will Go On," and further recognized that it would elevate just about any sports highlight into a soaring comic masterwork.

I would like to throw a 45th-birthday party for all the great writers who died at 44: F. Scott Fitzgerald, Anton Chekhov, Robert Louis Stevenson, Henry David Thoreau, D. H. Lawrence, Joseph Roth, Marvin Gaye and Billie Holiday (she did write a little and was an auteur of sorts).

He proudly wears his left-wing beliefs on his sleeve and continues to produce politically engaged cinema, from Oliver Stone's 2003 film about Fidel Castro ("Comandante") to a slick new documentary by the Spanish auteur Fernando León de Aranoa about the meteoric rise of the populist, anti-austerity party Podemos.
|
|
It reflects not only the persistence of "auteur theory," the popular idea that directors are the true "authors" of film — which first elevated men like Hitchcock and Howard Hawks to the level of respected artists — but the broader concept that greatness in cinema is necessarily tied to dominance over a film's production.

It was the second and final Friday of the 12-day Cannes Film Festival, where Jarmusch first made a name for himself as a prematurely gray but still quite young auteur in the mid 80s, and outside a private inn near the French Riviera, the northern Ohio native appeared right at home.

And whether or not you wish to make the case for Wyler as an auteur, his career offers its share of sophisticated pleasures, like the Sinclair Lewis adaptation "Dodsworth" (Wednesday and Thursday), from 1936, in which a retired industrialist (Walter Huston) sees his younger wife (Ruth Chatterton) drifting away from him in Europe.
|
|
Top of the Lake: China Girl is not as good as the first season of Top of the Lake, which felt like a once-in-a-lifetime melding of the talents of Jane Campion (the auteur behind The Piano and other films) and Elisabeth Moss (maybe the best actor of her generation).

" He focuses on a bumper crop of breakthrough, subversive, auteur-driven movies — virtually all of which were released theatrically in 1999 — quoting the actor Edward Norton (of 1999's "Fight Club"), who is hard pressed to name any other 12-month span "that had more really original young filmmakers tapping into the zeitgeist.

One of the prevailing approaches to drama here, a staging philosophy known as Regietheater, or director's theater, has been heavily influenced by the auteur theory of cinema and gives directors the artistic license to make their productions every bit as individual and distinctive as a film by Stanley Kubrick or David Lynch.
|
|
Owing much to Martin Scorsese's "Shutter Island" and Paolo Sorrentino's "Youth," the film is "a lustrous box of genre candy, the self-revealing work of an auteur who has laid bare not so much his psyche as his online streaming queue," A. O. Scott wrote in his review for The New York Times.

Ceux qui la mettaient le plus fortement en cause étaient les groupes ethniques minoritaires et les jeunes, qui se sentaient mis à l'écart par " une blancheur agressive symbole de la vieille Angleterre ", d'après Mark Leonard, directeur du Conseil européen des relations internationales et auteur, en 1998, d'un rapport qui préconisait de moderniser l'institution.

|
|
The reason Lynch is held up as an American auteur is both that his films feel like no one else's (to the degree that "Lynchian" is now an adjective that many spell checks won't flag) and that his concerns are so uniquely related to the particular strengths and pathologies of America itself.
|
|
He was proud that Mr. Dauman had allowed him to stick with a romantic notion of the film business — one that found a place for auteur-driven movies like "Silence" from Martin Scorsese and "Allied" by Robert Zemeckis — even as competing studios, adjusting to business realities, had shifted almost entirely toward fantasy tentpoles.

Adam Sandler, "Uncut Gems": Every few years, Sandler decides to forgo his string of mediocre comedies for something more auteur-driven and ferocious, and for "Uncut Gems," the directors Benny and Josh Safdie enticed him far out of his comfort zone to play a jeweler who's forever on the edge of financial ruin.

McBride and Hill have said that where the show's first season was more in the tone of high school auteur John Hughes, season two will align more with the blood-soaked, vengeance-strewn tales of Brian De Palma, and in the season's first seven episodes, this shift in direction is very clear.

The actress, now 67, has stepped away from the spotlight in recent years, but that hasn't diminished the imprint she's left — those curious wide eyes, that high-pitched voice, her signature slender frame — in films like Popeye and Annie Hall, and in her collaborations with auteur Robert Altman (Nashville, McCabe & Ms. Miller, 3 Women).

And, as with any boy band, each member had their role: Joe was the heartthrob, with architecturally flattened hair and doe eyes seemingly able to peer into a teen girl's soul, Nick was the group's cutely curly-haired auteur, Kevin was the random older one (Chris Kirpatrick played this role too perfectly on NSYNC).

LeEco put on a heck of a spectacle in San Francisco the other week, with a US debut that featured everything from bicycles and electric cars to a cameo appearance by beloved indie filmmaker Michael Bay, the auteur behind such mumblecore fare as Transformers 3 and Transformers 4 shot on the set of Transformers 5.

You can't underestimate the impact they have when you [ask their opinion] on set, and they're like, "let me think about that," and they give an honest answer, because they've been with you forever, so they aren't trembling in their boots because "Jeff Nichols The Auteur" is about to squirt out an amazing idea.

It's easy to wonder why Linklater hasn't directed more sports movies, at least until you remember that dark period in the mid-2000's, when Linklater was pegged as "the guy that brought you School Of Rock," instead of the understated auteur behind more personal work such as Slacker, Before Sunrise and Waking Life.

That ended the "match," at least until Wyatt entered the live arena; in a bit of Roger Corman–esque carelessness on the part of WWE producer/delusional auteur Kevin Dunn, he left the house at prerecorded night and entered the arena in live California sunshine, whereupon he was immediately waylaid by a teleporting Orton.

But for anyone with a moist, albeit mortifying, affection for the oeuvre of that great auteur Irwin Allen (guilty), and the K-Tel era of pop music (guilty), "Disaster!" will provide a rush of giddy nostalgia that's just as pleasurable, at times, as the more substantial rewards of the musical theater's higher-reaching shows.

In "Bird Talk" (on Friday), Xawery Zulawski directs a screenplay written by his father, the gonzo Polish auteur Andrzej Zulawski, who died in 2016; "On the Silver Globe," a science fiction allegory that the elder Zulawski completed in the 1980s after the Ministry of Culture halted production a decade earlier, screens the next day.

One of the two men I'm referring to is Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui—a highly esteemed Belgian dancer-come-choreographer, who, according to the Guardian, can twist himself "like a pipecleaner," and is now attempting to turn the works of political philosopher Noam Chomsky into a ballet, which he's titled Fractus V. He's a dance auteur.

The success of Oscar-bait indie films of The Weinstein Co., the auteur-led work of Roman Polanski or Woody Allen is predicated on the idea that "great artists" don't have to follow the rules: an idea that a growing number of women are pointing out is more self-serving than it is idealistic.

Fans of celebrated Canadian auteur Guy Maddin, whose work spans more than 50 short- and feature-length films, including The Saddest Music in the World and My Winnipeg, might be surprised to hear his latest project is a web-based, algorithm-driven assemblage, one that literally recombines itself newly for each viewer in a never-to-be-repeated incarnation.

If you needed someone to explain to you that Frank Underwood, the antihero of "House of Cards," owes something to Machiavelli; that "Mad Men" is "shorthand for Madison Avenue men"; that movie spectacles ask us to "switch off our brains"; and that modern television has exploded "the old idea of a single auteur," then by all means hunker down.

And though it's been seven years since the funky R. & B. auteur Raphael Saadiq released an album, the back-to-the-future style he's brought to the music of Solange Knowles and the TV show "Insecure" insures that his free show for Lincoln Center Out of Doors (July 25) will be one of the series' most anticipated. ♦

This film and its spinoffs shot her to cult stardom in Southeast Asia, Eastern Europe and the Middle East (lobby cards in many languages can still be found on eBay) — and it also captured the imagination of one future American auteur: Quentin Tarantino has said Uma Thurman's character in "Kill Bill" was partly inspired by Marrie's Cleo.
|
|
He crafted a reputation as an auteur — a performer so talented he was itching to write as well — and he cultivated the concomitantly sensitive/introspective persona implied by the new album's title; in an industry where pop stars usually sing, dance, and wear whatever masterminds at the label hand them, elementary notions of creativity are potentially a meaningful alternative.

Outside the omnipresent influence of Hollywood, there is cinéma populaire — commercially successful domestic genre films, often comedies so unsalable abroad it is as if they don't even exist (ever heard of "Alad'193," starring the young comedy sensation Kev Adams?) — and less expensive auteur films that an international fraternity of movie buffs and critics do like.

Not only did Glover's win for Outstanding Actor in a Comedy Series mark the first time a black man won that category since Robert Guillaume won for Benson in 1985, but his triumph in comedy directing — which he insisted on sharing in spirit with Atlanta auteur Hiro Murai — made him the first black man to win that category, ever.

He was an auteur in every sense of the word, a multidisciplinary genius who rewrote the rules of stardom and astounded even the people around him with his skill and passion; he was a contemporary folk hero, one who flailed against record labels and the internet and served up theoretical pancakes on Chappelle's Show like some kind of magical purple elf.

What has audiences so eager this time is in part the combination of an auteur African-American director (Ryan Coogler of "Fruitvale Station" and "Creed"), a heavyweight cast (Chadwick Boseman, Michael B.

In a Forbes piece about the upcoming cinematic Dune adaptation (also directed by 2049 auteur Denis Villeneuve), writer Scott Mendelsohn points out that many of these movies are very pricey when they don't need to be, using last year's Jumanji spinoff as an example of a blockbuster that was "cheap enough to not have to break records" and thus a hit.

While you might not see any direct connection between his comic beginnings and his current status as a critically acclaimed genre auteur, if we take a closer look, it's easy to see just how much of an overlap there is between Peele's past and present work — and just how well Key & Peele prepared him to take his explorations of genre conventions and tropes to the next level.

Directed by Finding Neverland's Marc Forster and written by indie film auteur Alex Ross Perry (with reported polishes from Spotlight's Tom McCarthy and Hidden Figures' Allison Schroeder), Christopher Robin has a lot in common with the anglophilic whimsy of the recent Paddington pictures, combined with the 1991 "adult Peter Pan" adventure Hook, among other stories about business-folk pushed by circumstance into reconsidering what's important.

I could barely make it through this one—not even the allure of Dane DeHaan (who landed in a much better movie later in the year, Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets, which some of you didn't like and I don't really care if you did, so there) and quasi-weirdo Hollywood auteur-ish guy Gore Verbinski could drag this one out of the morass.

It's a glimpse at what could have been, and also a preview into Kojima's future post-Konami, where he would be lauded as an auteur and given free reign to create the strange and singular Death Stranding, a game that would prominently feature Norman Reedus and Guillermo del Toro, both of whom were set to collaborate with Kojima on the Silent Hill game that never was.

The result is a film that is as engaging as it is mystifying, a lyrical, impressionistic take on a genre with the emotions left in HD. Anytime a comparatively low budget genre film comes up on the radar, the film world braces itself for a fresh auteur to be crowned prince of the next multimillion dollar franchise film — at one point, Nichols himself had been in talks to director DC's Aquaman.

From the beginning, it was the TV show as auteur vision, in the tradition of Deadwood's David Milch and The Wire's David Simon and The Sopranos' David Chase—all the Davids who made it OK to love TV. By now, it's clear that Girls wasn't about injecting female-driven sitcom with millennial relevance, but about redefining prestige television and the kinds of lives it can make us care about.

The last 15 years have given us "28 Days Later" and its sequel; a remake of "Dawn of the Dead"; the parodies "Shaun of the Dead" and "Zombieland"; three genre entries from the "Night of the Living Dead" auteur George A. Romero, who has since gone to the grave himself; the TV series "The Walking Dead" and "Fear the Walking Dead"; and the zombie-adjacent "Maze Runner" movies.

Last fall at St. Ann's Warehouse in Brooklyn, where his stripped-down, boldly revisionist, ecstatically reviewed staging of "Oklahoma!" had sold-out crowds tapping their toes to sparkling bluegrass orchestrations of Rodgers and Hammerstein gems, Mr. Fish could often be spotted watching a bit grimly from a seat by the control booth, his tightly crossed arms and legs pretzeled into a pose a yoga teacher might call Extremely Anxious Auteur.

Although I hesitate as a music fan to complain about overproduction — on principle, one wants more rather than less music in the world, no matter what it is — the Dylan industry's apparent need to expel his table scraps bespeaks a dubious flavor of auteur worship — the kind of adulation that has always attached itself to Dylan and won't stop until every second of the man's life has been examined and documented.

" Ryzik notes that the actress and the director are now dating (saying Aronofsky "bristled at the suggestion that the screen dynamic might be perceived as mirroring that of auteur and megastar in real life"), but her piece also describes what Bardem sees as the key to the chemistry between the duo on set: "She can telegraph pain on screen without needing hurt in real life; he can depict psychosis and remain steady himself.

Indeed, the two most exciting things happening in TV comedy right now, to my mind, are the more experimental and auteur-driven cable and streaming comedies that explore particular points of view (often through filmmaking with a dose of surrealism, à la Atlanta or Insecure or Master of None), and the recent swath of terrific multi-camera sitcoms, which are using the inherent limitations of the format as a kind of challenge.

On the other side of the camera were directors whose vision came to us from all parts: Jacques Rivette, the French New Wave auteur, with his convention-defying meditations on life and art; Abbas Kiarostami, the Iranian master, with his searching examinations of ordinary lives; Andrzej Wajda, a rival to Ingmar Bergman and Akira Kurosawa in some critics' eyes, with his haunting tales of Poland under the boot first of Nazis and then of Communists.

Hear some smooth, color-soaked synth, electric piano lines, and soft thwacking drums, and the U.K. musician and producer probably had something to do with it (recent years have seen him work with everyone from Carly Rae Jepsen to Debbie Harry, Mac Miller to Empress Of, not to mention his own records.) But his second album under the Blood Orange moniker, 203's Cupid Deluxe, was what really cemented him as not just an artist, but an auteur.

France, Germany and the Soviet Union are all associated with pioneering schools of cinema, but this retrospective suggests that Czechoslovakia nurtured some of Europe's most innovative filmmaking before World War II. The lineup makes a case for the canonization of the auteur Gustav Machaty, perhaps best known for his early sound feature "From Saturday to Sunday" (April 14-15 and 22) and for "Ecstasy" (April 14 and 20), scandalous for footage of a skinny-dipping Hedy Lamarr.

There was J. Hoberman, the film critic who had inherited the section from Andrew Sarris and Jonas Mekas, the two critics who helped put auteur theory and indie and experimental film on the map; there was Greg Tate and Nelson George, two of the pre-eminent voices on black music and hip-hop culture; and Richard Goldstein, the executive editor, who had been with the paper for more than 25 years and had been credited with the invention of rock criticism.

There's virtuoso, which usually refers to a person with extraordinary technical ability; there's prodigy, which refers to a young genius; there's auteur, which refers to a skillful artist whose works demonstrate a consistent aesthetic vision; there's savant, which is someone whose genius seems innate, even if that genius is related to a disability or neurological impairment; and in music, there's maestro, which is a term of commendation given to an exceptional conductor or composer who has reached a level of mastery.

While this did accomplish an even coating—God, did it—the end result was decidedly unappealing to the eyes, with large red chunks sitting in a powder and pineapple juice concoction that looked alarmingly like blood—I'd even say it'd be a fine special effect recipe for the slasher auteur on a budget, were it not for, you know, the actor's eyes—all combining to the effect that I appeared to be eating the poorly rendered remains of a '90s first-person shooter victim.

The highlights include "La Tía Alejandra" (Friday), in which the Luis Buñuel protégé Arturo Ripstein offers his take on witchcraft; "Cronos" (Friday), Guillermo del Toro's feature debut, centered on an antique dealer (Federico Luppi, who died last week) who acquires an appetite for blood; "Santa Sangre," the 1989 comeback feature of Alejandro Jodorowsky, the midnight-movie auteur of "El Topo"; and "El Vampiro," which brings the Dracula legend back to Mexico (where it had already been for a Spanish-language version of the 1930s Universal film).

In the movies and television, this tension led to an extended reworking, deconstruction and reinvention of classic American genres (the Western, the war movie, the gangster flick, the sitcom), something that happened first in cinema and then extended more gradually into TV. What we often think of as two golden ages — the auteur years in 1970s Hollywood, and then the more recent golden age of television — are really part of the same generational takeover; it just took longer for boomer influence to work itself out on the small screen.

The temporal leap does suggest a stability in the sex business, which seems to have been lucrative for everyone we know who's involved: The mob empire has expanded into more brothels and a Lincoln-a-year habit for Rudy Pipilo (Michael Rispoli); Paul (Chris Coy), like Abby, has settled into a managerial role at a popular bar; Chris Alston (Lawrence Gilliard Jr.) has graduated from beat cop to full detective; and Candy has become a true adult-film auteur, starring and directing and editing elevated smut in 16mm.
