Return of the space station

SOME 350km above your head in outer space, nations are pulling together to build an outpost in space that can be used by all to carry out experiments away from the pull of the Earth’s gravity. Each time the Space Shuttle launches, it takes another section to the International Space Station (ISS), which is then bolted on making it grow and grow. Work started on the ISS in 1998 when the first section was sent into space and since then 22 more Space Shuttle flights have added various sections making the ISS now bigger than a football field. It is so big that it can easily be seen from Earth; in fact it is the brightest object in the night sky after the moon.

But I was finding that I couldn't really capture what I wanted [with it].'

Magic Hour: Carlos Reygadas's "Silent Light"

Carlos Reygadas's visceral cinematic sensibility can be felt in every frame of "Silent Light," briefly showcased at New York's MoMA last fall and already cropping up on numerous critical year-end lists (mine included). It receives wider U.S. exposure starting this week at Gotham's Film Forum, thankfully: As with all of the Mexican filmmaker's works, it demands to be seen on the big screen; only an immersive theatrical setting can do justice to such complex visual and aural textures, painstakingly planned camera movements, and sensitivity to light. This holds particularly true in the case of "Silent Light," in which Reygadas tames his more bravura instincts, as rapturously beheld in "Japon" and "Battle in Heaven," resulting in a film no less gorgeous, but more delicate in its beauty.
