In the early 1970s, while in the midst of making his Trilogy of Life, Pier Paolo Pasolini publicly remarked that a kind of “cultural genocide” had overtaken his home country of Italy. Essentially, he pointed his finger at the overwhelming dominance of consumerism that he believed had begun to erase the positive values instilled by the nation’s history of peasantry.
Even decades removed, many will still find this statement heavily contentious, as it seems representational of a debate that’s raged in film culture — that, of course, over “aestheticizing poverty,” or, in some cases, romanticizing it. Among the many figures in contemporary world cinema who can be branded with this label, Pasolini’s countryman of a different generation, Roberto Minervini, certainly embraces the act while still complicating it.

With a seemingly endless amount of streaming options — not only the titles at our disposal, but services themselves — we’ve taken it upon ourselves to highlight the titles that have recently hit the interwebs. Every week, one will be able to see the cream of the crop (or perhaps some simply interesting picks) of streaming titles (new and old) across platforms such as Netflix, iTunes, Amazon Instant Video, and more (note: U.S. only). Check out our rundown for this week’s selections below.
Embrace of the Serpent (Ciro Guerra)
With its focus on the effects of exploration by white men on foreign lands, Ciro Guerra’s Oscar-nominated Embrace of the Serpent will inevitably be compared to Werner Herzog’s stories of savage nature, and while Guerra is investigating some of Herzog’s most well trodden themes, the chaos of man exists in the background, while the unspoiled sit front and center here.

“So one thing from another rises ever; and in fee-simple life is given to none, but unto all mere usufruct.” – Lucretius, On the Nature of Things, Book III
The above quote was once used by great Italian documentarian Franco Piavoli to open his masterful 1982 film, The Blue Planet. In that instance, it is deftly applied to the fragility of mother nature; her various granting and reclaiming of life, but can just as easily be applied to the figures followed by Roberto Minervini, an Italian based in the United States whose acclaimed Texas Trilogy – The Passage, Low Tide and Stop the Pounding Heart – was followed up at Cannes this year by The Other Side, which shifts the director’s gaze slightly eastward to the state of Louisiana. One must assume that Minervini, despite blazing his own trail that has led him through the Philippines and Spain en route to America’s Southern states,...

The Heart She Holler: Minervini Caps Texas Trilogy With Christian Corset
A hybrid of documentary aesthetic and subdued narrative happenings, the third film in a Texas set trilogy from Robert Minervini, Stop the Pounding Heart, most certainly is not for all tastes. Already referred to as Bressonian in its articulation of daily rituals in an isolated Christian community, the film follows The Passage (2011) and Low Tide (2012). But while some may claim it echoes the deliberate aesthetic of a Robert Bresson, its objectivity often feels like a grim purveyor of ignorance, and cynical audiences won’t be able to disguise their smirks towards such archaic rituals, nearly aligning it with earlier works by Harmony Korine.
The film focuses on the Carlsons, a family of goat farmers that sell their dairy products at farmers’ markets. The parents, Leeanne (Leeanne Carlson) and Tim (Tim Carlson) have twelve children, all of whom they’ve...

We have The Guest, with Stevens; The Zero Theorem by Gilliam; Smith’s Tusk; Tracks, the latest from the producers of The King’s Speech; and Cave’s doc 20,000 Days On Earth.

Just to fill out the marquees, we also have Tribeca-winning doc Keep On Keepin’ On; Flamenco, Flamenco; Hector And The Search For Happiness; Iceman; Hollidaysburg; and Not Cool.

You keep waiting for catastrophe to strike in Roberto Minervini's taciturn Stop the Pounding Heart. The handheld camera drifts without judgment through scenes of home-schooled children in forced prayer, shirtless trailer-park boys riding a makeshift mechanical bull, those same boys mounting a dangerously unqualified elementary-school kid on the bull. But nothing wrenching happens, just unforgettable moments of piercing isolation and sadness. Stop the Pounding Heart is part of what Minervini calls his "Texas trilogy" (the two other films, The Passage and Low Tide, are not sequels but feature some of the same cast and themes; all three will run between September 19 and 25 at Lincoln Center). There's scant plot or dialogue, just glimpses of the...

Syndicado is pleased to announce the acquisition of a slate of new films from Doc and Film, including writer-director Robert Minervini’s three indies "Stop the Pounding Heart," "Low Tide" and "The Passage." The deal includes a number of other documentaries and features for VOD, with "Stop the Pounding Heart" planned for theatrical release in Canada.
The new acquisition follows Syndicado’s recent move into theatrical releasing in both the Us and Canada, while entrenching its position in VOD internationally.
“We’re delighted to further our relationship with Doc and Film for both narrative films and docs, as they continue to attract talented filmmakers under their banner. Minervini’s close up docu style in all three of his rural Texas shot pics coupled with his light directorial hand with talent drew us to this trilogy’esque series.” said Greg Rubidge, President of Syndicado. “Bringing great indie films to the theatre and major VOD outlets worldwide is what we love and we’re proud to be able to release these titles and more with Doc and Film.”
The deal includes all rights in Canada for Minervini’s films, plus digital for other English speaking territories ex-usa. Rounding out their existing partnership, Syndicado adds seven more documentaries for VOD/Svod across all major English markets.
"We’ve seen great traction through a lot of hard work and innovation from Syndicado since our initial partnership, and we’re delighted to extend our deal for more documentary titles as well as supporting their new theatrical direction,” says Daniela Elstner, President of Doc and Film International. “VOD is a growth area for us that compliments our successful growth in TV and distribution sales.”

The third and final chapter of a trilogy by Us-based Italian director Roberto Minervini entirely dedicated to the study of rural Texas, Stop the Pounding Heart tenuously walks the line between documentary and fiction. It follows the day-to-day life of 17-year-old Sara Carlson ("star" of Minervini's The Passage) and her goat-farming family as she goes through a crisis of faith and identity in the midst of an extremely religious - fundamentalist, even - family for which the Bible sets all rules for life, and forms a subtle bond with bull-riding Colby Trichell (also seen in Minervini's other film Low Tide). This strange and intimate portrait, shot on the Carlson home with the actual family, defies classification and snaps a privileged, rare depiction of these people's...

Last week we called your attention to occult-oriented retro rockers Blood Ceremony (sweet new record, check out the review here), and it so happens they're currently touring in support of Kylesa, a well-established unit formed in Georgia back in 2000 and well known for their dark, swampy psychedelic mode of metal. Kylesa's sixth studio record Ultraviolet hit the street around the same time as Blood Ceremony's The Eldritch Dark, and it's about time we dropped our needle on this band's ominous new offering. Blending rough-edged stoner sludge with the mood and textures of gothic & doom metal, Kylesa have made a few mods to their sound since their gritty, punk-infused 2010 breakthrough Spiral Shadow, which laid down corrosive power-riffs, anthemic chants and a thundering rhythmic assault (courtesy of dual drummers Carl McGinley and Eric Hernandez), scoring the band their highest props to date. On Ultraviolet, their sound is still effectively aggressive, but now incorporates more subdued,...

Michel Gondry’s Mood Indigo (L’écume des jours) was a surprise no-show in Cannes this year (his film debuted theatrically in France the previous month) but the stage is set for an opening gala opening ceremony for the 48th Karlovy Vary International Film Festival. Among the slew of titles that were announced today, at the top of must see list we find Ben Wheatley’s A Field in England making its world premiere in the Main Competition category, a pic we thought would end up showing on the Croisette. Another item we had short-listed for a Cannes showing but will be shown in the Spa village backdrop, we have János Szasz’s The Notebook, and making it’s international debut after a stellar Tribeca debut, Lance Edmands’ Bluebird will compete against a pack that also includes hometown favorite Jan Hřebejk and his his psychological thriller Honeymoon.

Rating: 1.5 out of 5 stars
Cannes invariably offers the opportunity to see some weird and wonderful projects that might not otherwise grab the attention, and Roberto Minervi’s neo-realist documentary style Stop The Pounding Heart is one such film. Following a young girl (Sara Carlson) in a deeply religious territory of Texas, the film seeks to offer a glaringly realistic portrayal of her struggles with lust and religion, when she meets a trainee rodeo rider from a neighbouring family (Colby Trichell) and becomes immediately drawn to him.
This story plays out over the backdrop of Sara’s family life, showing her familial duties, and the tasks required of her on the family goat farm, as well as the fervent religious dedication of her family, and how that impacts on her individuality and the various relationships between characters.

Surprise, surprise! We have Venice Film Festival winners and as usual, we’re here to share the complete list of winners with you!
Now, about that surprise part, here’s the strangest thing in the world of festivals so far. We all knew that Paul Thomas Anderson’s The Master was one strong contender for the festival’s top prize, so I guess we were (and still are) all shocked when the jury decided to give Golden Lion to Kim Ki-Duk and his Pieta.
And all that because, well…apparently Philip Seymour Hoffman and Joaquin Phoenix were just too good in The Master and they both received that acting award a.k.a. Volpi Cup.
That leads us to Festival’s new rule where one film can not win more than two major awards, which basically means only one thing – Thomas Anderson goes home with the Silver Lion for best director.

Venice, the festival that acts more like your elementary school tee-ball league than you may have realized. Due to the dozens upon dozens of awards given, pretty much everyone gets at least a “good try”-esque pat on the back — well except maybe Brian De Palma and his poorly received erotic drama Passion.
While you likely only care about the first handful of awards — in which Kim-Ki Duk‘s drama following a debt collector, Pieta, has won the top prize and The Master took home top acting prizes — nearly everyone from Harmony Korine to Robert Redford to Spike Lee have been awarded honors.
In interesting tidbit, THR also reports that Paul Thomas Anderson‘s The Master was set to win the top prize of Golden Lion, but due to a rule change, a film can’t win more than two major awards. So, the jury had to deliberate again (I...

★★★☆☆ Roberto Minervini's accomplished feature, Low Tide (2012), is set in the badlands of Texas and focuses upon a boy and his mother one long, hot summer. The Boy (brilliant newcomer Daniel Blanchard) is a Huckleberry Finn of the contemporary USA: he enjoys the timeless boyish pursuits of catching frogs, fishing and exploring the countryside but these are minor interludes between backbreaking errands, cleaning up after his mother (the excellent Melissa McKinney) and earning a living. A little less Twain and a lot more Dickens.

With the line-up for the Toronto International Film Festival dropping a few days ago and the list for Venice out today, the festival circuit has arrived!
The lead stories for the Venice line-up aren't nearly as exciting as those coming out of Toronto. Harmony Korrine's "Spring Breakers" with James Franco and Selena Gomez will make its debut, as will Brian De Palma's "Passion" with Noomi Rapace and Rachel McAdams.
Perhaps the biggest headline here is the absence of Paul Thomas Anderson's "The Master," a film that was expected to appear here. Skipping Venice is just more proof that the rumors of a Fantastic Fest debut may be true.
