Abstraktní pohádkový příběh vypráví o pravidelném setkávání koček z Jellica na výročním bále, kde vždy jedna vyvolená kočka získává možnost dalšího života. Každá kočka se samozřejmě snaží o to být ona vyvolená, a tak divák v průběhu představení poznává mnoho kočičích hrdinů rozličných jmen i charakterů.

Snímek Monty Python: Smysl života postrádá hlavního hrdinu je to přece svět viděný rybami skrz sklo akvária a v rozbitém světě pro něj není práce. Není se s kým ztotožnit, s kým a pro co trpět. Z lidskosti zbyly jen okamžiky, kdy smolaři jednotlivých miniosudů stojí tváří v tvář své opuštěnosti. Z hlavního hrdiny minulých filmů zbyla jen tvář Briana na kříži (opuštěná maminka na sále jen s přístrojem, který dělá pink, udivený pan Kreozot po výbuchu, synek, kterému dle všeho umřela maminka, taťka bez práce s osmaosmdesátým dítětem na cestě). Je to podobné, jako když se Gogolovu Revizorovi vyčítalo, že postrádá kladného hrdinu, a on si v dopisu příteli smutně postěžoval, že tam byl, jen si ho nikdo nevšiml že jím je přece smích. Zde jako poslední naděje lidstva.

Citově oddělený mladý Brooklyňan proplouvá nevýraznými dny a nocemi. Ani její vztah s mírně nezajímavým starším domem v BDSM, ani její nevýrazná práce ve firmě jí nepřinášejí žádné uspokojení a její vztah s nepříjemnými newyorskými rodiči jen umocňuje únavný koloběh její rutiny.

Glimpses of Chaucer penning his famous work are sprinkled through this re-enactment of several of his stories.

Various experiences of childhood are seen in several sequences that take place in the small town of Thiers, France. Vignettes include a boy's awakening interest in girls, couples double-dating at the movies, brothers giving their friend a haircut, a boy dealing with an abusive home life, a baby and a cat sitting by an open window, a child telling a dirty joke, and a boy who develops a crush on his friend's mother.

Tis the season for the cheer and charm of the Peanuts kids - and this delight special offers five segments full of unforgettable moments. Snoopy works as a bell-ringer to raise money and tries making peace with the ferocious cat next door. Linus strives to strike the right tone in his letter to Santa - and his friendship with an indecisive girl at school. Sally's idea about gift giving and the identity of Santa may be unusual - but her strange notion about how to obtain a Christmas tree surprisingly does the job. Lucy tries awfully hard to be nice...and still coax everyone around her to buy her presents. Charlie Brown and Sally wait up for Santa (a surprisingly short man), who spreads Christmas gift cheer further than they had thought. Make merry!

Some of 2011's stand-out film actors appear in "a video gallery of cinematic villainy" for New York Times Magazine.

November 25, 2013

For this year's Movies Issue, The New York Times Magazine commissioned lines from an eclectic and talented group of screenwriters — writers responsible for some of the best scripts of 2013. We asked them each to write a single line for us — not a scene, a script or a scenario, but simply an intriguing, amusing or captivating line of dialogue. Then we gave these lines to one of the great movie artists of our time: the cinematographer Janusz Kaminski, a two-time Oscar winner. Kaminski used these lines as inspiration to create 11 original (very) short films. Each short evokes a style or genre of the cinematic past and stars an actor who gave an especially memorable performance in 2013.
