Documentary filmmaker Mark Cousins follows in the footsteps of DH Lawrence in this dazzling road-trip through Sardinia.

A collection of films from an eclectic array of contributors commissioned to raise funds for the Bristol independent cinema The Cube.

As told through clips from 183 female directors, this epic history of the cinema focuses on women’s integral role in the development of film art. Using almost a thousand film extracts from thirteen decades and five continents, Mark Cousins asks how films are made, shot and edited; how stories are shaped and how movies depict life, love, politics, humour and death, all through the compelling lens of some of the world’s greatest filmmakers – all of them women.

Directed by Mark Cousins, My Name is Alfred Hitchcock re-examines the vast filmography and legacy of one of the 20th century’s greatest filmmakers, Alfred Hitchcock, through a new lens: through the auteur’s own voice.

紀錄片《電影的故事》與《奧森威爾斯：匠心繪眼》名導馬克庫辛思，新作《大製片家》描述有「監製中的監製」之稱的傑瑞米湯瑪斯，他曾與許多大師攜手催生多部影史經典，包括貝托魯奇《末代皇帝》、大島渚《俘虜》、大衛柯能堡《超速性追緝》。片中導演和傑瑞米湯瑪斯一同驅車前往坎城參加電影盛事，旅途中電影記憶翻飛，細數湯瑪斯過去四十載傳奇成就，宛如影痴版《末路狂花》，引領影迷一頭栽進傑瑞米湯瑪斯的電影風暴！

Through little-seen archival material and his characteristically cinematic analysis, Mark Cousins narrates the ascent of fascism in Italy and its fall-out across 1930s Europe. In The March on Rome, which is simultaneously an essay film and a historical document, Cousins contextualises history through the here and now, holding a mirror up to a political landscape marked by a creeping far right and manipulated media.

“I met a woman. She said that she is Belfast, the city in Northern Ireland where I grew up. The woman said that she’s as old as the city,” states Mark Cousins at the beginning of his meditative dialogue with the personification of Belfast. This cinematic essay abandons the parameters of classic documentary language, asking us to perceive the film as a magical-realist mix of reality, dreams, myths, and local storytelling.

不管你是藝術系哲學系還是電影系，請到此上這一課非一般東西方性別政治私房對話。卡辛斯（《電影史話》，36 屆）是電影學者、導演；雅芭莉是藝術家，涉繪畫至電影。他從蘇格蘭出發浪遊，她從伊朗出走自我放逐。他見到西方藝術勇於露體自行探索；她的東方女性成長伴隨着一件黑袍，裸露是底線。在散文電影的知性形式他們三度書信往來，從基阿魯斯達米的影片（雅芭莉是《10》的女主角），來回吳爾芙家門，Reza Abbasi 的畫，最後交織布拉姆斯的音符與Forough Farrokhzad 的詩句中。 A visual epistolary dialogue between filmmakers. Mark Cousins continues his personal essay approach to the life and creators of images, stimulated by an assignment to write liner notes for one of Mania Akbari's 20 Fingers. Akbari's contributions take on a different reflective tone as she traces her life in Iran, the stages of her exile and her experience with breast cancer and recuperation. The convergence of themes, subjects and love creates a cinematic fugue in two compelling voices.

Programme made for the 50th anniversary of classic movie I Know Where I'm Going by maverick film-making duo Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger, set on a Hebridean island and starring Dame Wendy Hiller and Roger Livesey.

The Story of Looking sees Mark Cousins prepare for surgery to restore his vision. Cousins explores the role that visual experience plays in our individual and collective lives. In a deeply personal meditation on the power of looking in his own life, he guides us through the riches of the visible world, a kaleidoscope of extraordinary imagery across cultures and eras. At a time when we are more assailed by images than ever, he reveals how looking makes us who we are, lying at the heart of human experience, empathy, discovery and thought. He shares the pleasure and pain of seeing the world, in all its complexity and contradiction, with eyes wide open. As the COVID-19 pandemic brings another dramatic shift of perspective, he reaches out to other lookers for their vision from lockdown, and travels to the future to consider how his looking life will continue to develop until the very end.

Seventy years ago this month the bombing of Hiroshima showed the appalling destructive power of the atomic bomb. Mark Cousins’ bold new documentary looks at death in the atomic age, but life too. Using only archive film and a new musical score by the band Mogwai, Atomic shows us an impressionistic kaleidoscope of our nuclear times: protest marches, Cold War sabre rattling, Chernobyl and Fukishima, but also the sublime beauty of the atomic world, and how X Rays and MRI scans have improved human lives. The nuclear age has been a nightmare, but dreamlike too.

by Mark Cousins is the first global portrait of children in the cinema.

A documentary produced by Mary Bell and Adam Dawtrey of BofA Productions.
