hal hartley dialogue

It’s funny, I had a conversation with Atom Egoyan a couple of years ago in Toronto. I control the rights. Matthew: Yeah. I met her after Purchase. But we knew each other quite well.HH: I didn’t know her at Purchase. I lived in Germany for five years, because I had work there. That was really the base, the Film Forum, and Anthology Film Archives. I know, I know, I still need to get the cast names in there and I'll be eternally tweaking it, so if you have any corrections, feel free to drop me a line. Der Dialog wird dann viermal wiederholt (mit einer kleinenVariation am Ende), in einerflotten,aberauch ausdrucksarmen Art und Weise. If you were to watch his new film, "Amateur," without being able to hear the dialogue, you would think it was a slice of life about urban crime and isolation.

I remember the first reading with everybody around the table at the same time, and it was really hilarious. Adrienne Shelly (Audrey) & Robert John Burke (Josh) in The Unbelievable TruthHH: It was 60, and then we got another 15, so it was 75 altogether. We started and graduated at the same time. Even recognizing that when I was watching them, if I had to make a film right now I wouldn’t make a film this way.

Finally, the Simple Men script is here for all you quotes spouting fans of the Hal Hartley movie. Hal Hartley[1] (born November 3, 1959) is an American film director, screenwriter and composer, who became a key figure in the American independent film movemen... t of the 1980s and 1990s.

There have been benefits and I’m happy, but it is a lot of work.

Everybody took to it right away. Still playful after all these years, catching up with HH: I think when the opportunity came, that I could make a 35mm feature film for $60,000, I thought to myself, “Well, we probably stand as good a chance as anyone at the moment.” The big hope was just getting it distributed. Without having really experienced much of that as theater, really just reading the plays. I don’t know.HH: I don’t own them completely. But still, you don’t have to pursue that 100% all the time. Plötzlich bekam der Film The Unbelievable Truth, den ich mir ansah und der der erste Spielfilm eines damals noch unbekannten, 29-jährigen Regisseurs war, einen neuenKlang. And he was going to be the lead actor in my senior thesis film at Purchase, but for various reasons he wasn’t allowed to. It was 75 with all the deferrals, so it was really 60. I’m an experienced craftsman who could probably be of use to these usually younger people who are making their first film. You know, “This will work there; have you thought about taking this part out?” And I enjoy that kind of craft. That hadn’t happened in those couple years I had been living in New York and watching films all the time.

The earlier films I made for the kinds of people they were about. Maria: What for?

At the same time, you have all this craft and experience. Or how do distributors and sales agents, how do you sustain an industry where there’s so much product?

Voila! We were always talking about film and we were always going to the Film Forum. Hal Hartley: No, I let Julian Antos and his associates at the Chicago Film Society oversee the whole 35mm printing project. If somebody needed a commercial I’d say, “I’m your man. I’m not trying to hit a very specific audience, a demographic of young people or middle-aged people. I always do.HH: Yeah, because they fostered less of a professional training school type of thing. So, Moliere was a huge influence on me. I didn’t know if I was going to come back. This script is a transcript that was painstakingly transcribed using the screenplay and/or viewings of No Such Thing. Or at a Loews cinema. Know the lines, say the lines, do what Hal asks you to do in terms of physicality, which is pretty simple. Maria: No, I mean, why do you carry it around with you all the time? The other complicated part, which other people have to figure out is how do you make money, how do you make a living being a filmmaker?

Somebody’ll figure it out.

And everybody recognized, without having to talk about it, that it resided in the dialogue. When I’m teaching or running a workshop I don’t think about it any other way. I own it with another individual, a group of individuals, but I’m in charge of marketing and all that. We were hoping for that and that’s what we focused on. But I was very excited about them, that the characters could be a little open-ended too, they didn’t have to be as clearly defined as a more conventional drama or comedy wants them to be.HH: I don’t remember that. So just trust the dialogue. So that was quite an influence. Youth. I mean, it was a lot simpler than, say, HH: No, I don’t think I said that, but it did look that way. You can catch his reviews here at H2N and over on his site Cinema Echo Chamber.

Just tell me what you want and I’ll manufacture it for you, I’ll do it.” It was really funny, they were like, “Oh, we really want a Hal Hartley image, we really want a Hal Hartley attitude.” I’m like, “Dude, I don’t really know what that is, but if you tell me what you’re expecting, I could probably work backwards and kind of retro-fit the image to what you need.” [I’ve also spent a lot of time teaching and a lot of time doing workshops and stuff where I’m really a mechanic who comes in and works with people on the script.
