Jonathan Glazer unexpectedly releases new short film on BBC2 "According to an interview with the Guardian, the piece was inspired directly by an image of Donald Trump’s sons trophy hunting big game, as well as the work of playwright and poet Bertolt Brecht and Goya’s Disasters of War etchings. Glazer is also preparing to shoot his first feature for seven years, a Holocaust drama set in Auschwitz."
"The Fall, [Glazer's] first work since Under the Skin, feels entirely of a piece. Long, eerie takes, a score by Mica Levi (there is no dialogue), bright light shining through the pitch black, and everything freighted with exhilarating dread. Glazer, now 54, wants to be reticent about the film, to let it speak for itself. “I thought it would benefit most from being dropped unannounced,” he says. “I didn’t want to frame it with any expectation.” [The Guardian]
The Fall can be viewed on the BBC iPlayer
