director’s note I can say without a doubt that this year’s Festival program is one of our best yet. Its strength and diversity is reflected in both our prestigious honorees and our incredible slate of films from around the world. It is well documented that Albert Maysles and his late brother, David, transformed the documentary genre. Involved in cinema verité before the term was even invented, Albert Maysles applied his approach to nonfiction filmmaking, developing what he ultimately called direct cinema, using spontaneity, mobility and invisibility to lead the documentary genre in a new direction. In addition to these innovations, the Maysles brothers’ sensitivity and unique talents have made them legends in the field. To say that MVFF and its audiences are fans of director Mike Leigh’s work is an understatement. Nearly all of Leigh’s feature films have screened here. A world-class director whose filmmaking perspective and process are unique, Leigh creates complex, fresh films that are courageous and entertaining. At press time, it was announced that Leigh’s new film, Vera Drake, which will be presented as part of our Tribute program to Leigh, had won the Gold Lion in Venice for best film and best actress for its star, Imelda Staunton, who will also be joining us to salute this fine filmmaker. Perseverance pays off! I can’t remember how many times over the last two decades we have attempted to honor Gena Rowlands at MVFF. Years ago Rob Nilsson (former MVFF Tributee) asked on our behalf, and my colleague Ron Henderson, director of the

Denver Film Festival, also contacted Ms. Rowlands, but each time there was a glitch that prevented it from happening. Why have we been so determined to have Ms. Rowlands as a Tributee? It wasn’t just the two best actress Oscar nominations for Woman Under the Influence and Gloria, or the Emmy for her portrayal of the First Lady in The Betty Ford Story or the Golden Bear she received at the Berlin International Film Festival for her starring role in Opening Night. To put it succinctly, Rowlands epitomizes the great indie actress—a woman way ahead of her time who has been part of a family (both on and off the screen) that has breathed and lived cinema. “My God, who is this woman?” I asked myself after the premiere of You Can Count on Me at MVFF in 2000. I wasn’t alone: Laura Linney’s performance in that film touched a nerve and touched the heart, elevating her to stardom and a well-deserved Oscar nomination. This year we honor Linney in a special Spotlight program, acknowledging her immense talents and her superb roles in two new and extraordinary films, P.S. and Kinsey. Albert Maysles, Mike Leigh, Gena Rowlands and Laura Linney—just four reasons why the 27th Mill Valley Film Festival may be the best ever! But don’t stop there—there are nearly 200 more reasons to take time off from work, prepare yourself for an allpopcorn diet and map out a three-film-a-day schedule for the next 11 days. Our skilled and experienced programming team has put together an incredible line-up of 90 feature films, 100 shorts and 27 premieres from 37 different countries. This year’s Festival features an especially strong showing of work from the Middle East, Eastern Europe and Asia, as

well as several new films from Iran. Documentaries, which have become the unexpected box office draws in mainstream theaters this year, are another strength of this year’s Festival, with a full 25 percent increase in documentary programs being offered over last year. The 27th Mill Valley Film Festival also features a milestone in children’s programming, celebrating the 10th anniversary of our beloved Children’s FilmFest. MVFF officially inaugurated the Children’s FilmFest in 1995 to serve a young audience that craved quality programming. In the last decade, we have filled that need with an annual eclectic mix of international films, shorts, animation, silent films with live music, parties, seminars, ice cream socials and an extensive hands-on workshop program that has taught hundreds of kids how to make fiction, documentary and animated films. This year’s Children’s FilmFest promises to be just as fun, enlightening and entertaining, with more films, workshops and surprises in store for audiences of all ages and sizes. Once again, a huge and sincere thank you to the individuals, foundations, businesses and many others who have contributed so generously to the Mill Valley Film Festival. To our Board, staff and hundreds of tireless volunteers—please know that it cannot happen without you!

IN MEMORIAM

The 27th Mill Valley Film Festival Is Dedicated To Our First Tributee

DAVID MYERS

Cinematographer May 8, 1914–August 26, 2004

Photo credit: Cyndy Waters

David Myers had the eye and heart of a true artist, one whose instinct was in perfect synchronicity with his craft. His legacy of music films is unrivalled and includes, most notably, the documentary of that greatest outdoor rock concert ever, the Oscar-winning Woodstock. The film is as legendary as the event, and Myers’ part in capturing its essence was extraordinary. The film’s director, Michael Wadleigh, recalls “how swift Dave was and how alert to ironies, societies and values,” and he cites him as “a cameraman-director, incredibly intelligent, inventive and creative.” His roster of subjects is incredible: Bob Dylan (Hard Rain) and Joni Mitchell (Shadows and Light), not to mention Elvis, Dolly Parton and Johnny Cash. Other Myers features include Zoot Suit, Human Highway and two recent re-releases, George Lucas’ first feature, THX 1138, and The Grateful Dead Movie (the latter will be featured at this year’s MVFF. See page 86). At the Mill Valley Film Festival, we have a special affection for David Myers. He was our first tributee. And with his wife, Barbara, he lived for many years in Mill Valley. His graceful presence and insightful wit and his brilliance as a raconteur—as well as his signature black cowboy hat—have long been an important part of our daily life in the village square. We will miss him, and we honor his presence in our lives.

Shelter (1970, again with Zwerin), a chilling rock-and-roll nightmare that some pundits have used rather simplistically to define the end of the ’60s. Begun as a behind-the-scenes chronicle of a Rolling Stones concert at the Altamont Speedway, in Tracy, California, the film took a nasty turn when a man was stabbed to death in front of the stage—while the band was playing—by one of the Hell’s Angels who were inexplicably hired as security. Gimme Shelter boasts the most revealing footage ever shot of Mick Jagger, a man whose sneering self-confidence has rarely deserted him. But it did onstage at Altamont: Helpless to calm the ugly vibe and regain control of the crowd, suddenly ridiculous in his Sympathy for the Devil cape, Jagger resembles a boy whose game of scary dress-up has been interrupted by werewolves. Maysles’ credo seems emblazoned on Jagger’s face: “To me, the unique power of the documentary is filming someone else’s experience.” The most memorable sequence, however, and the one that confirms for all time Maysles’ gift as an unobtrusive cinematographer, captures Jagger, Richards and the band reviewing the killing on monitors in an editing suite. The stabbing is replayed, slowed down and blown up (an homage to Antonioni’s Blowup), while the chastened musicians take it all in. In this passage, Maysles accomplishes the toughest trick in documentary: capturing transformation on film. The viewer is well aware of the filmmaker’s proximity, but the focus is inarguably on the Stones. “As a psychologist, I understand that we make judgments according to our frame of reference. But if you make the effort, you can distance yourself from your point of view. ‘The great thing about Shakespeare was that he could distance himself from his point of view,’” Maysles says, citing a lecture he once heard. Never was that tougher for the Maysleses than when they shot Grey Gardens (1975, made

Grey Gardens with Ellen Hovde and Muffie Meyer). An American classic, this notorious portrait of Jackie Kennedy’s reclusive aunt and cousin in their rundown Hamptons mansion is a mortifying primer of mother-daughter relationships. The “star” of the film is “Little” Edie Beale, who flirts with the Maysleses, performs for the camera and assiduously smears the line between character study and home movie. Grey Gardens remains controversial for the way it shatters the time-honored notion of observational or “objective” documentary (and, some argue, violates its subjects’ privacy). Maysles can still quote from memory from The New York Times’ negative review, which included sophisticated objections such as “Why are they showing us all this flabby flesh?” But the Beales didn’t object to their portrayal. When Mrs. Beale was dying, not long after Grey Gardens was released, Little Edie asked her, “Maybe there’s something more you want to say?” “No,” her mother replied. “It’s all in the film.”

Grey Gardens “Human behavior is very complex,” Maysles muses, “and I think that one of the strengths of the film is that it captures their relationship and all of its complexity. Some of their relationship is destructive but I think, overall, it’s a beautiful love relationship.” After Grey Gardens the Maysleses returned to famous subjects, such as Muhammad Ali, Christo and Vladimir Horowitz, until David’s death in 1987 ended their partnership. Albert has continued to make revelatory films about musicians and the creative process, and he’s on [54]

board, with D.A. Pennebaker, to document the series of get-out-the-vote concerts that Bruce Springsteen, James Taylor, R.E.M. and others are playing in swing states this month. He also made three highly regarded social-issue documentaries, Abortion: Desperate Choices (1992); Letting Go: A Hospice Journey (1996) and LaLee’s Kin: The Legacy of Cotton (2001, with Susan Froemke and Deborah Dickson). Maysles has a full slate of projects these days. The Jew on Trial, which revisits a 1913 blood libel case in Russia, marks his first historical documentary. (He’s talking with legendary director Arthur Penn about re-creating scenes from the trial, which would no doubt add to Maysles’ legacy of sparking debate.) Maysles is also about to begin editing a film on the Dalai Llama, and he is primed to shoot Christo covering the walkways of Central Park next year. Closest to his heart, perhaps, is In Transit, a film that he’ll shoot on long-distance trains around the world and which derives from Maysles’ ability to instantly gain the trust of complete strangers. With cameras so ubiquitous in daily life and with reality TV placing a premium on heightened behavior, it seems impossible for filmmakers to capture authentic, natural experience. Not so, Maysles asserts. “There are fundamental reasons in the makeup of human beings that allow the cameraperson access no matter what the culture and no matter what the times. People have the greater impulse to disclose than to keep a secret.”

tribute to ALBERT MAYSLES But that trust must be honored, Maysles believes. “I get annoyed when some of the better-known documentary makers back away from taking the responsibility of being factually correct, and say, ‘Well, it’s just a film.’ When you’re dealing with real people’s lives, you have to be factually correct.” And what of the postmodern argument that nonfiction films don’t convey an objective truth so much as reflect the point of view of the filmmaker? “Then let’s not call it a documentary,” Maysles declares. “Say at the end, ‘We weren’t up to that task. You want to really know these people and have a fine understanding of what’s going on? You’ll have to wait for that.’” Maysles breaks into laughter, but rest assured he’s not backing down.
