International film critic and historian Bill Krohn on “A Woman Called Job”

“Here’s one I don’t say to many directors: you certainly have a gift for making interesting shots. That’s what struck me watching without concern for the story. The film is inventive and assured - never a foot placed wrong visually. I was also struck by your casting and direction of the non-pros. That is very hard to pull off. You’ve set yourself a difficult task: finding the images to convey an inward vision that includes the world in its own unique perspective. Mental images. I just caught up with Francis Coppola’s ‘Youth Without Youth’, based on a Mircea Eliade story that shares some of those qualities with ‘A Woman Called Job’. Of course Coppola is already an Old Master, but you and he are both making a new kind of film. ” Bill Krohn has been the Los Angeles correspondent of Cahiers du Cinema since 1978, and the film reviewer for The Economist since 2004. He co-wrote, -directed, -produced It’s All True: Based on an Unfinished Film by Orson Welles. He wrote Hitchcock at Work, Luis Bunuel: Chimera, as well as monographs on Alfred Hitchcock and Stanley Kubrick, and edited Joe Dante and the Gremlins of Hollywood. Phrases, his translation of five Godard “cinepoems,” will be published in 2009 by Beyond Baroque, Los Angeles. WEB LINK to his review of Full Metal Jacket.
