Art City 1 Making It in Manhattan
Unlike any art movie you've ever seen, Making it in Manhattan is informed 'entertainment' about the people who make contemporary art. Artists, collectors, and dealers bring to life the art capital of the world, New York, as it plunges into the 21st Century. Presenting a cross-section of artists, the film discusses inspiration, aesthetics, and the meaning of success. With Louise Bourgeois, Brice Marden, Chuck Close, Neil Jenney, Elizabeth Murray, Ashley Bickerton, Gary Simmons, Ursula von Rydingsvard, Rirkrit Tiravanija, St. Clair Cemin, Ivan Karp, Jay Gorney, Matthew Marks, Jerry Saltz, Herb & Dorothy Vogel, and others. From abstraction to figuration, from installation to conceptual art, from the privacy of the doctor's office to the posh gallery opening, Making it in Manhattan captures the reality of a special world. Music by Tom Waits, Don Braden Ryuichi Sakamoto, George van Eps, Piero Umiliani with Chet Baker.
Джонни Мнемоник
Director
В насквозь кибернетизированном будущем самый ценный товар - информация, доставляемая курьерами в самом надежном месте - в их собственном мозгу. Для того чтобы преуспеть в этом бизнесе, Джонни (Киану Ривз) «стер» воспоминания детства и расширил память с помощью сверхсовременных компьютерных приспособлений. Но и этого оказалось мало для информации, которую он взялся доставить. Если ее вовремя не «сгрузить», то Джонни погибнет. Ставки велики, и информацию из головы (можно и с головой, но без Джонни) желает заполучить вездесущая японская мафия, подключающая к столь тонкому делу Проповедника (Дольф Лундгрен). Спасаясь от преследования, Джонни преодолевает препятствия не только в реальном мире.
