December’s movie is All That Jazz,
Bob Fosse’s semi-autobiographical masterpiece follows Joe Gideon, a brilliant but self-destructive director-choreographer juggling his movie editing, stage show directing, and complicated personal life while facing his own mortality. The film blends surreal musical numbers with stark reality, featuring Roy Scheider in a tour-de-force performance.
“Blending Broadway and filmmaking razzle-dazzle with American New Wave grit, and incorporating nonlinear editing techniques that had begun in early 20th century experimental cinema and blossomed in mid-century art house classics like Hiroshima, Mon Amour, this is one of the most aesthetically sophisticated, morally complex, and sheerly pleasurable films ever made.”
– Matt Zoeller Seitz
