.: . Fuego (1969) đź“Ľ
Died on this day aged 89: Argentine actress, winner of Miss Argentina 1955 and the first woman to appear fully nude onscreen in an Argentinian film - Isabel Sarli (née Hilda Isabel Gorrindo Sarli, 9 July 1929 - 25 June 2019)! For cult cinema connoisseurs, Sarli is celebrated as the kitschy sex goddess leading lady of sexploitation movies directed by Armando Bó, routinely described as “the Argentinian Russ Meyer.” (Sarli and the married Bó were lovers and artistic collaborators for years - they made an astonishing 27 films together between 1956 and 1981 - but he remained married to his wife throughout). If you only see one of their movies, make it Fuego, an outrageously lurid 1969 melodrama about the agony and ecstasy of nymphomania. “Isabel Sarli squeezes more sexual frisson into the space between breathing in and breathing out than most of us could spread over a lifetime of ordinary lovemaking,” Roger Greenspun of the New York Times raved of her lustful performance. Forever caressing her fur coat and squeezing her breasts together, Sarli stars as Laura, a seemingly independently wealthy socialite bedevilled by gnawing, voracious horniness. Laura yearns to meet “the man who can satisfy all my desires” and hopes she’s found him in suave businessman Carlos (played by Bó himself. Prepare for extended sequences of Bó and Sarli endlessly, hungrily sucking face and pawing each other). Perhaps unsurprisingly, John Waters is an ardent fan. Many of the costumes and hairstyles worn by Dawn Davenport (the unrepentant bad girl played by Divine in Waters’ 1974 classic Female Trouble) are a deliberate tribute to Sarli in Fuego. (There’s an adorable clip of a suitably worshipful Waters and Sarli meeting at a Buenos Aires film festival in 2018. At 88, Sarli was still ultra-glam with bouffant mane of teased hair, impressive décolletage and false eyelashes still intact). By 2012, Sarli was deemed respectable enough for President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner to designate her an ambassador of Argentine popular culture – and rightfully so!

Birdman or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance) was released in a limited number of theaters on 17 October 2014, before wider release in November.
Alejandro Iñárritu initially conceived of the film as a single shot taking place in a single location (a theater). Almost everyone told him that the single shot idea was not worth pursuing, including his co-writers (Armando Bó, Alexander Dinelaris Jr., and Nicolás Giacobone), who had worked with Iñárritu before. Also, including the adaptation of a Raymond Carver story (as the play within the film) was risky, as they did not own the rights (Carver's widow, Tess Gallagher, loved the idea and allowed the writers to proceed).
As the writing proceeded it became evident that while the one location idea needed to change, the one-shot idea became the unifying aspect. "We wrote everything thinking of this one shot, and a lot of decisions that would mostly be taken in the editing room were taken before shooting," Bo said.
According to Iñárritu, Michael Keaton was not who they had in mind while they were writing, by the time they had finished, he was the clear choice.
Cinematographer Emmanuel Lubezki and Iñárritu worked through the script (with minimal sets and stand-ins) to see if it were feasible to shoot, and once they determined it was, they began rehearsing with the cast and crew. "Every movement, every line, every door opening, absolutely everything was rehearsed," Iñárritu said.
While the goal was to give the impression that the film is a single, continuous shot (like Alfred Hitchcock's 1948 film Rope, or Alexander Sokurov's Russian Ark, released in 2002), it is not, with the editors (Douglas Crise and Stephen Mirrione) "stitching" the shots together (Crise was onset every day, unusual for an editor).
Birdman was a commercial and critical success, receiving 9 Academy Award nominations, including Best Actor (Keaton), Best Supporting Actor (Edward Norton), Best Supporting Actress (Emma Stone), Best Sound Editing, and Best Sound Mixing.
Birdman received Oscars for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, and Best Cinematography.
