CBC Arts Presents: The 50 Greatest Films Directed by Canadians
Favs/dislikes: 0:0. First published in June 2023. Near, far, wherever you are — these directors have shaped not only Canadian film but the entire art of cinema around the globe. What is the greatest film ever directed by a Canadian? It’s a trickier question than it seems, and one that perhaps stokes the flames of a long and storied divide: the one between the filmmakers who have stayed in Canada to help build up our own industry… and those who left for greener pastures (at least the money kind of green). But there's no denying how significantly Canadian filmmakers have shaped the art of cinema — no matter where they’re working. There have been many lists centered around the best “Canadian films,” as there should. Canadian films — those made within our own systems of production — are a distinct representation of our artistry that deserve to be celebrated as their own entity. But why should we narrow ourselves when we’ve also done so much for cinema everywhere? What happens when we look at every single movie ever made by a Canadian filmmaker — anytime, anywhere — and stack them up against one another? So what is the greatest film ever directed by a Canadian? That’s the question we posed to film critics, programmers, and journalists to create the ultimate list. Responses poured in from across the country, and these were the 50 films that topped their ranks. The results may surprise you, or maybe they’re exactly what you expected. But either way, they make it extraordinarily clear that when it comes to the art of cinema, nothing quite compares to the Canadians lens. How was this list tabulated? We asked participants to rank the best full-length feature films directed by Canadians from 1 to 10, with film #1 being worth 10 points, #2 worth 9 points, and so on, all the way up to #10 for 1 point. 83 participants submitted ballots by the time of our deadline, voting for a total of 230 different films. The criteria for the selections were as follows: they must be directed by a filmmaker who identifies as Canadian, fully or partially, either by birth or naturalization; they could be produced or set in any country at any time; they must have a runtime of 60 minutes or over. Any films that did not meet this criteria were disqualified. Once the ballots were submitted, we added up the point totals for each film and arranged them from highest to lowest. For films that had the same number of total points, we used two tiebreaking factors. First, we looked at which film received the most Top 3 placements; the film with the most Top 3 placements won. If the films had the same number of Top 3 placements, we then looked at the total number of people who voted for each of them; the film with the highest number of votes won. Honourable Mention: [url=https://www.icheckmovies.com/movies/wavelength/]Wavelength[/url], directed by Michael Snow Michael Snow's avant-garde 1967 film received a total number of votes that tied it for 50th place, but at a runtime of 45 minutes, the film did not meet our criteria for inclusion on this list. -

Chantal Akerman's Une Cinémathèque Imaginaire
Favs/dislikes: 7:0. “If that’s what cinema is, then I want to make films!” Chantal Akerman, on Pierrot le fou. This list stems from interviews with the filmmaker* and additional information provided by her close collaborators: editor Claire Atherton; cellist Sonia Wieder-Atherton; producer Marilyn Watelet; and her sister, Sylviane Akerman. * Mainly: - “Une Cinémathèque imaginaire de Chantal Akerman”, interview by Frédéric Strauss for La Cinémathèque française (2000) : https://www.cinematheque.fr/article/1152.html - “Chantal Akerman: The Pajama interview”, by Nicole Brenez (2011): http://www.lolajournal.com/2/pajama.html -
Charles and Ray Eames Filmography
Favs/dislikes: 1:0. Wife and husband artists, Ray and Charles Eames were an artistic team who worked in multiple mediums, and are most famous for the furniture they designed. They also happened to be quite prolific with their film output as well, as seen below. I found a source that said they created 125 films, but IMDB only lists 108, and I can't find a filmography more complete than that, so when/if more films show up on a better filmography, I will add to this list. Not listed on IMDB, but listed on the Eames' website: Babbage’s Calculating Machine or Difference Engine (1968) - ???? The Leading Edge (1966) Merlin and the Time Mobile (1978) Newton’s Method of Fluxions: An Introduction to Differential Calculus (1974) Polavision Vignettes: Bicycles (1977) A Report on the IBM Exhibition Center (590 Madison) (1978) Sumo Wrestler (1972) Time and Life International Building Lobby (1959) -

Christian Marclay's The Clock
Favs/dislikes: 2:0. The Clock (2010) is an art installation by video artist Christian Marclay. It is a looped 24-hour video supercut (montage of scenes from film and television) that feature clocks or timepieces. The artwork itself functions as a clock: its presentation is synchronized with the local time, resulting in the time shown in a scene being the actual time. Missing in IMDB: How a Watch Works (1949) What Makes a Fine Watch Fine? (1947) San Francisco: Market Street and Ferryboats (1937) Bulova Clipper Conquers Niagara Falls (1956) under construction https://theclock.fandom.com/wiki/Timeline -

Christopher Nolan Presents: Films That Inspired Dunkirk
Favs/dislikes: 0:0. Christopher Nolan curates BFI Southbank season of influences on new film Dunkirk Personally curated by the award-winning director, Christopher Nolan Presents will offer audiences unique insight into the films that influenced his hotly anticipated take on one of the key moments of the Second World War. 24 May 2017 BFI Southbank is delighted to present a season of films that have inspired director Christopher Nolan’s new feature [url=https://www.icheckmovies.com/movies/dunkirk-2017/]Dunkirk (2017)[/url], released in cinemas across the UK on Friday 21 July. Christopher Nolan Presents, which will run from 1-31 July, has been personally curated by the award-winning director and will offer audiences unique insight into the films that influenced his hotly anticipated take on one of the key moments of the Second World War. The season will include a special preview screening of Dunkirk on Thursday 13 July, which will be presented in 70mm and include an introduction from the director himself. Nolan is a passionate advocate for the importance of seeing films projected on film, and, as one of the few cinemas in the UK that still shows a vast amount of celluloid film, BFI Southbank will screen all the films in the season on 35mm or 70mm. In 2015 Nolan appeared on stage alongside visual artist Tacita Dean at the BFI London Film Festival to discuss the importance of celluloid as an artistic medium, and he consistently shoots on film despite the industry’s move toward digital. Here, Nolan sums up his programming choices for this exclusive season: “You might expect a season of films leading up to a screening of Dunkirk to be a selection of war movies. But I chose to approach Dunkirk more as survival story than war film. One look at James Jones’ essay on ‘Phony War Films’ (in which he takes down several of my old favourites) immediately shows you the perils of taking on real-life combat in a dramatic motion picture. In Jones’ estimation All Quiet on the Western Front (Lewis Milestone, 1930) said it first and best: war dehumanises. Revisiting that masterpiece it is hard to disagree that the intensity and horror have never been bettered. For me, the film demonstrates the power of resisting the convention of finding meaning and logic in individual fate. “Most of the other films in this series fall into two different but overlapping categories. From established classics of tension like The Wages of Fear (Henri-Georges Clouzot, 1953) and Alien (Ridley Scott, 1979) through to the more recent ticking-clock nail-biters Speed (Jan de Bont, 1994) and Tony Scott’s final film, the relentless Unstoppable (2010), our season explores the mechanics and uses of suspense to modulate an audience’s response to narrative. “Other titles explore the possibilities of purely visual storytelling, whether literally, in the case of the silent epics – Stroheim’s Greed (1924) and Murnau’s Sunrise (1927) – or in part, like the thrilling windswept beaches and crashing waves of Ryan’s Daughter (David Lean, 1970). The relationship of geographical spectacle to narrative and thematic drive in these works is extraordinary and inspiring. Pure cinema. “The Battle of Algiers (Gillo Pontecorvo, 1966) is a timeless and affecting verité narrative, which forces empathy with its characters in the least theatrical manner imaginable. We care about the people in the film simply because we feel immersed in their reality and the odds they face. The visual splendour, intertwined narratives and aggressively anachronistic music of Hugh Hudson’s Chariots of Fire (1981) combined to create a masterpiece of British understatement whose popularity rapidly obscured its radical nature. “Finally, no examination of cinematic suspense and visual storytelling would be complete without Hitchcock, and his technical virtuosity in Foreign Correspondent’s (1940) portrayal of the downing of a plane at sea provided inspiration for much of what we attempted in Dunkirk. All the films are screened on 35mm or 70mm prints. I hope you will enjoy the rare opportunity of seeing these incredible movies in their original analogue glory, as nature intended.” Presented in Chronological order.
