Dopo tanto tempo d’inattività, ho deciso di riprendere questa pagina. E per tastare il terreno lo voglio fare parlandovi del “nuovo” linguaggio delle serie TV. Prendo come “paziente zero” una serie televisiva di inizio secolo: “Six Feet Under”, che meglio rappresenta il nuovo corso della serie televisiva, denominato “la nuova era d’oro della Tv americana”, che poi come vedremo si estenderà in Europa e in altri paesi del mondo. Episodio pilota: Breve storia da “Telefilm” a serie televisiva e struttura narrativa. L’attenzione degli autori, dei registi e dei produttori cinematografici, nei confronti del format televisivo, ha permesso a quest’ultimo di evolversi e di avvicinarsi oggi, sempre di più, al linguaggio cinematografico. Quelli che una volta erano chiamati “Telefilm” oggi sono le “Serie Tv”. Dov’è la differenza? Prima di tutto nella struttura narrativa. Nei vecchi Telefilm, essa era costituita essenzialmente dalla cosiddetta “trama orizzontale”, ovvero da una scrittura che prevedeva il minor minutaggio possibile nel rappresentare la causa, lo svolgimento/evoluzione e la risoluzione dei fatti, come nel caro “vecchio” e sempreverde Paradigma di Syd Field. Quindi il tutto nasceva e moriva all’interno del singolo episodio, non c’era nessun concept narrativo volto a fidelizzare “il pubblico da casa”, che poi come vedremo diventerà spettatore in senso cinematografico. Per merito di David Lynch, autore e regista cinematografico “prestato” alla televisione, con “Twin Peaks” avviene la prima interazione tra “trama orizzontale” e “trama verticale”. Per problemi strettamente legati alla produzione, su questi termini “Twin Peaks” subisce un arresto, Lynch lascia momentaneamente il progetto e la serie assume tutti i connotati del vecchio “Telefilm”. Dove non è riuscita ad arrivare “Twin Peaks” ci è arrivata “Six Feet Under” “Six Feet Under” è una serie ideata da Alan Ball, (autore, produttore teatrale e cinematografico, co-sceneggiatore per “American Beauty” di Sam Mendes), prodotta dalla HBO dal 2001 al 2005 per un totale di cinque stagioni. È il dramma di una famiglia che gestisce un’impresa di pompe funebri, vittima della morte stessa, ma soprattutto della vita. È proprio in questa premessa che trova sfogo la struttura narrativa di cui vi ho parlato: la trama orizzontale è costituita dalla caratterizzazione dei personaggi secondari, il più delle volte terziari, che sono rappresentati dai decessi all’inizio di ogni episodio e che durante l’arco narrativo dello stesso, a loro volta caratterizzano i protagonisti di tutta la serie. In questo modo si sviluppa la “trama verticale” che è il concept fulcro della serie. Ecco la novità di “Six Feet Under”: l’interazione tra “trama orizzontale” e “trama verticale”, che caratterizzerà le successive serie come “Lost” e “Breaking Bad”,quest’ultima vero e proprio dispiego della tecnica cinematografica a servizio del “format televisivo”. Questo “episodio pilota” termina qui. Nei prossimi giorni vi parlerò delle tecniche di ripresa (video, audio e montaggio) nelle serie televisive, prendendo come riferimento “Six Feet Under”, “Lost” e “Breaking Bad”. Daniele Pieri

Uncle Frank, 2020, Directed by Alan Ball (Six Feet Under, True Blood). Uncle Frank is a story about being who you are and fighting the demons, internal & external, that are stopping you from being who you are. Paul Bettany plays Frank, a closeted gay man in the early 1970s. He takes his niece under his wing when she goes to the college he works at in New York. When his father, her grandfather, passes away, the two go on a road trip home with Frank’s longtime partner Wally in tow. Frank has to confront his past and learn to trust his family and himself in order to heal. It’s a very touching film with great performances from Bettany, Sophia Lillis as his niece Betty/Beth and Peter Macdissi as Wally. It also boasts a nice supporting cast of Steve Zahn, Judy Greer, Margo Martindale, Stephen Root and Lois Smith. Overall just a really good drama now available on @amazonprimevideo . #unclefrank #alanball #paulbettany #sophialillis #petermacdissi #movies #amazonprimevideo #nowshowingwithmikeandwayne Check out our podcast by clicking the link in our bio.

@Regran_ed from @alexanderskarsgard_archive - 10 years ago today [November 2, 2008] - @HBO aired episode 1.09 ‘Plaisir d’amour’. We got to see more of Alexander Skarsgård as Eric Northman and his protegy, Pam played by Kristin Bauer van Straten. Bill stakes a vampire in Fangtasia to save Sookie and Eric and Pam took their first trip to Merlotte’s in this episode. It was written by Brian Buckner and directed by Anthony Hemingway. Quotes (from @IMDb) Eric Northman: TruBlood, it keeps you alive, but it will bore you to death. ✴️ Eric Northman: Humans... honestly, Bill. I don't know what you see in them. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ✴️ Eric Northman: You killed a vampire, Bill. For a human. What are we gonna do about this? Bill Compton: What do you have in mind? Eric Northman: I'll take the girl. Bill Compton: No! [long pause] Bill Compton: You can have anyone you want. Why do you want her? Eric Northman: Why do *you* want her? You're not in love with her, are you? Bill Compton: [incensed] Sookie must be protected. Eric Northman: Now, that sounds like an edict. But it couldn't be, because I would know about that. Admit it. You love her. Bill Compton: If I hadn't done what I did, would you have let his disloyalty stand? Eric Northman: Whatever I did to Long Shadow I would not have done in front of witnesses. Especially not vampire witnesses. Not smart, Bill. Not smart at all. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Photos are my screen caps from HBO’s blu-ray of #TrueBlood - that last slide is of Eric not taking his eyes off of Sookie until the last second. 💕#AlexanderSkarsgard #AlexanderSkarsgård #Skarsgård #Skarsgard#EricNorthman @TrueBloodHBO #HBO #AlanBall #KristinBauervanStraten #PamelaSwynforddeBeaufort #EricandPam #ASkarsHistory #onthisday #10yearsago #OTD #vampires #Vampire #Fangtasia #sookiestackhouse - #regrann https://www.instagram.com/p/Bps2usHgQ8V/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1qm8nf81wwmyx
