"Ânsia de amar" (carnal knowledge) - mubi.

O Mubi educadamente avisa que um filme na sua lista vai sair do catálogo e esse está pra ir embora. Assim, vamos ver. De 1971, com Jack Nicholson e dirigido por Mike Nichols que tinha lançado antes "Primeira noite de um homem" (the graduate), longa que me agrada bastante.

depois de ver: filme de 1971, mas os homens continuam bestas. aqui já se vê a masculinidade frágil. lindo elenco feminino e me espantou ver o Garfunkel (ele mesmo, da dupla com Simon) como ator.

Carnal Knowledge (Mike Nichols, 1971) Cast: Jack Nicholson, Ann-Margret, Art Garfunkel, Candice Bergen, Rita Moreno, Cynthia O'Neal, Carol Kane. Screenplay: Jules Feiffer. Cinematography: Giuseppe Rotunno. Production design: Richard Sylbert. Film editing: Sam O'Steen. Carnal Knowledge begins as a light comedy of manners set in the late 1940s, when college students were supposedly less casual and more poorly informed about sex. Jonathan (Jack Nicholson), who claims to be more sexually experienced than his Amherst roommate, Sandy (Art Garfunkel), gives Sandy some advice on how to approach Smith College student Susan (Candice Bergen) at a mixer. The scene has some of the keen ear for awkward attempts at communication found in screenwriter Jules Feiffer's cartoons and in director Mike Nichols's comedy routines with Elaine May. Eventually, Sandy and Susan get together, with Jonathan still coaching Sandy on sex, until Jonathan himself makes his own moves -- unknown to Sandy -- on Susan. He succeeds, in an excruciating scene in which Susan's confusion about the loss of her virginity plays across her face, partly obscured by the grunting Jonathan on top of her. And from then the film becomes increasingly sour, as the years pass and the misogynistic Jonathan continues to meddle in Sandy's life but also makes a mess of his own relationships with women. He takes up with Bobbie, a model played by Ann-Margret, for what begins as a passionate fling and ends in misery. By the end of the film he is being serviced by Louise (Rita Moreno), a sex worker whom he hires to perform a routine designed to give him an erection, and he abuses her when she doesn't follow his plan. It's a sad, rather hopeless film that despite fine performances from all the actors never quite convinces us that its characters are anything but puppets of the writer and director. Jonathan and Sandy seem incapable of change and growth. Something makes me think that Carnal Knowledge would have been a better film if it had been told from the women's point of view, that it would have made a more telling point about the male ego and about the great gulf between the sexes if we had seen Jonathan and Sandy through Susan and Bobbie's eyes. We get glimpses of that, but Susan disappears from the film after she marries Sandy and he, egged on by Jonathan, drifts into mid-life affairs. Bobbie's entrapment into Jonathan's world leads to a failed suicide attempt, after which she, too, vanishes from the story. Feiffer and Nichols never make it clear whether their film is a satire on sex in modern society or just a particularly bleak story about unhappy people.

Carnal Knowledge (1971). Chronicling the lifelong sexual development of two men who meet and befriend one another in college.

I enjoyed this movie a lot more than I was expecting. While its gender politics are certainly dated, it’s elevated by a uniquely paced script and some really charismatic performances across the board. The result is something both charming and evocative, compelling and jarring – the movie building relationships that hold a lot of weight and none at the same time. It’s a pretty interesting exercise and a pretty interesting film.

I Hope You Had the Time of your Life, Kade Martin

Kade Martin, 25, of Chattanooga, Tennessee died Sunday, November 22, 2020 in Woodstock, GA tragically taken by an impaired driver.

Kade was born on April 23, 1995, in Chattanooga to Lt. Gary R. and Lisa (McDowell) Martin.

They graduated from East Hamilton High School. Kade graduated with honors from Chattanooga State Community College with an Associate’s Degree in Journalism. 

They were a Community Manager for High Road Craft Ice Cream, where they even had a hand in creating a signature flavor for GRiZ - DJ, songwriter, and electronic producer. 

Kade’s creativity, love of live music, and talent for writing and photography made them an asset to ConcertHopper.com. For the website, Kade interviewed artists such as Cherub and Maddy O'Neal, and covered music festivals and concerts such as Suwannee Hulaween. Kade also combined their love of food and music festivals to create and manage ConcertHopper.com’s Bars & Bites column.

ConcertHopper.com will be setting up a memorial Music Festival/Music Camp Scholarship in Kade’s honor. With this scholarship they hope to give someone the opportunity to experience the joy and community that Kade felt while enjoying music. The fundraising and application process will begin early in 2021.

Kade was an active supporter of and participant in the arts, especially photography. Kade was a gifted guitarist. They were plucked from the crowd two different times while seeing their favorite band, Green Day in concert.The second time they took the stage, they actually played guitar with Green Day!

They enjoyed cooking and sharing food with others. They also enjoyed hiking, camping and kayaking.

Kade was the loudest cheerleader for everyone lucky enough to call them a friend. Kade carried the spirit of Camp Kulabunga with them everywhere after attending in 2019. Camp Kulabunga is focused on creating a safe space of radical inclusion, community, self-empowerment, and wellness.

They are survived by their parents, Lt. Gary R. and Lisa Martin; grandparents, Judy and Melvin McDowell of Chattanooga, and Frances Jenkins of Chattanooga; aunts, Karen McDowell of Ooltewah, Karen (Glenn) Gass of Chattanooga, and Debra (Lonnie) Essex of Virginia; an uncle, Lt. Brian McDowell of Chattanooga; and her cousins, Drew, Ashlyn, and Abbey McDowell, Nicholas Gass, and Cassie Essex.

They also leave behind their best friend, Austin Adderholt, two cats, Fink and Nala, and a chosen family of Camp Kulabunga campers, concert hoppers, and artists all over the country.

Kade is preceded in death by their great-grandparents, Cynthia Tripp, James Monroe Tripp, and Willie McVeigh; and their grandfather, Ray Jenkins.

Music-vid helmer Director X remakes the 1972 blaxploitation pic with Trevor Jackson in the lead.

For many of us who discovered blaxploitation decades after its brief heyday, the appeal was not cinematic but musical. Though significant at the time for putting black protagonists onscreen, and occasionally in the director's chair, the movies were often made by cynics who thought their audience couldn't tell good scripts and acting from bad, and would buy anything containing a few surefire plot ingredients (guns, cash, naked ladies) and music by big stars. Some of the era's most brilliant artists lent their gifts to these cheap Film-to-watchonline s: Marvin Gaye and Curtis Mayfield arranged entire scores for Trouble Man and Super Fly; theme songs by Bobby Womack and Isaac Hayes were easily the most enduring elements of Across 110th Street and Shaft. So now that it's possible (albeit difficult) to get a serious Film-to-watchonline about black characters made, the occasional prospect of remaking one of these movies is greeted not with an indignant "how could you!" but a bemused "why would you?"

The latter question was easy to answer in 2000, when an ascendant black director (John Singleton) was paired with a star, Samuel L. Jackson, whose matchless charisma had already been contextualized, in Quentin Tarantino's Film-to-watchonline s, as ideal for grind house extremes. It's much harder to answer with the new Superfly, which plays like a feature-length (and then some) version of the most superficial genre of rap video and boasts a star (Trevor Jackson) who wilts in the light of his more skilled costars. Beyond the obvious complaints about objectification of women, this second feature from the Canadian who calls himself Director X is just a bore.

Jackson, sporting an upswept shock of straightened hair, plays Priest, a coke dealer whose success depends on knowing his rivals' secrets. In a hard-to-swallow introductory scene, we watchonline him confront three men with guns and disarm them simply by airing their dirty laundry.

In raspy voiceover, Priest explains that he's been hustling since 11, building his little empire by knowing what others don't and giving people jobs. If you think this is the beginning of a subtext weaving real-world issues into genre conventions, hold your applause until you see the nature of those jobs. In the next scene, we enter a vast strip club where Priest's two girlfriends do his bidding without question. In the 1972 Film-to-watchonline , Priest had two women (one black and one white) who didn't know anything about each other; here, he lives in a happy threesome with girlfriend-employees, treating the black one (Lex Scott Davis' Georgia) nearly like a sentient human and keeping the Latina (Andrea Londo's Cynthia) as an accessory, unseen until it's time for a threesome in the shower. (That scene may be literally steamy, but its cheesy soft-core vibe made the New York preview audience giggle.)

More an equal in Priest's coke-slinging operation is Eddie (Jason Mitchell), who seemingly oversees most of the business while Priest is tending his hair and squinting at people. They've made piles and piles of money, but a violent encounter with a gang called Snow Patrol — not the Irish rock band, but a group of drug dealers who wear white parkas in the Georgia heat — convinces Priest it's time to leave the gang. He wants to make one last huge deal, then retire.

The man who supplies Priest with his drugs, Michael Kenneth Williams' Scatter, isn't about to facilitate that big score by introducing Priest to his wholesaler. So Priest goes around him, hunting down the head of a Mexican cartel (Esai Morales) and impressing him with his knowledge of soccer. Soon, Priest and Eddie are up to their necks in blow, triggering a product-moving montage set to "Pusherman," one of Mayfield's original Super Fly songs.

The usual complications ensue, with gang warfare on one side, corrupt cops on another, and occasional cameos from an Atlanta mayor played by Outkast's Big Boi. Coming as he does from the world of music videos (having directed Drake's "Hotline Bling," among others) Director X brings surprisingly little visual style to the action. Aside from Priest's hair, the most eye-catching thing about the Film-to-watchonline is the exotic array of guns its gangsters wield.

A lack of style would be no problem if the Film-to-watchonline breathed life into its tired glitz-gangsta tropes. But it drags its feet through the motions, hobbled in part by Jackson's failure to convince us that Priest is as smart as he thinks he is. Four decades from now, he may look less laughable than Ron O'Neal's original Priest, with his upholstery trench coats and regrettable hair. But that's assuming anyone 40 years from now will even know this flick existed.
