| Adjustment and WorkWork Makes Freedom"" - sign above Auschwitz entrance ""Adjustment and Work"" is a brutal documentary by Frederick Wiseman. The film opens with a series of establishing shots, perhaps designed to emphasise the banal sights and sounds which ""ordinary"" humans routinely overlook. We then nosedive into the walls of the Alabama Institute for the Deaf and Blind. Here, handicapped men and women are taught to overcome or cope with their disabilities.The details Wiseman lingers on, however, paint a situation far more grotesque. At the Institute, we watch as handicapped men and women are categorised, processed, trained to use money and taught specific skills. The hope is that they might one day ""enter the workforce"". Once sufficiently ""adjusted"", their ""broken bodies"" are thus redefined as ""useful tools"". For most of the film, this is portrayed as an empowering transformation.By the film's second half, however, Wiseman has begun questioning notions of empowerment. Eventually it is revealed that those who are certified ""fit"" by the Institute get jobs performing mechanistic labour at factories making gear for the US Army. What's more, these factories have complex government contracts. Wiseman doesn't tell us how much this handicapped workforce is paid, but we know that the same system exists today, and that contemporary disabled workers are paid as little as 22 cents per hour, thanks to labour law loop holes. More specifically, these workers are exploited via a federal law called the Special Wage Certificate Program, which permits companies to obtain a certificate that allows them to hire disabled workers and pay less than the minimum wage. A 2006 study showed that Americans with disabilities made, on average, $0.60 cents per hour for their work. The justifications for such things are always the same: ""the market judges how much one should be paid"", ""these workers are not worth full pay"", ""if they were paid more they would not be hired"", ""if they were paid more they would lose state benefits"", ""they should be thankful for the work"", ""nobody else would hire them"" etc.""Adjustment and Work"" contains a number of powerful sequences. One of its best moments involves a blind man attempting to walk down a street, an ordinary task made Herculean by the man's plight. Another scene hints that a handicapped woman has been swindled out of her money. This is itself the crux of the film: compassion and exploitation often exist within a complex, almost intertwined relationship.Wiseman's films have always sought out segregated social spaces, typically occupied by persons classified as deviant (prisons, hospitals, charity networks, shelters, training centres). In the 1980s he embarked upon a series (""Deaf"", ""Blind"", ""Multi-handicapped"", ""Adjustment and Work"") which focused on America's disabled population. These are all films populated by individuals on the margins of capitalism, all of whom are subjected to regimes of power which cordon off the bodies of those who fail to adapt or ""adjust"". Only once the perfectible body is corrected, by teams of well-meaning professionals, therapists and administrators, is it then welcomed back into the fold. In these films, we see what amounts to a hegemonic aesthetic; blindness, mental retardation, deafness etc do not constitute the actual ""disability"". What matters is that one is adjusted to or for work. Only once the subject is ""corrected"", is it deemed ""normal"".""Adjustment and Work"" ends with workers and administrators discussing the fact that many handicapped workers have been taking ""sick leave"". The administrators suspect that the workers are faking illness to get out of work, but are also open to the possibility that the workers may ""genuinely be sick"". Several workers object to the notion that disabled persons are ""more sick than persons who are not handicapped"", and insist that ""the next generation of handicapped workers is simply lazy"". It's a hilarious sequence which not only taps into how completely these workers have been colonised (""We work therefore we are not disabled!"") but also the kind of lower and middle class bigotry which capitalism depends upon; the system pits the middle against the bottom, the bottom against the middle and both against the third world. Fittingly, Wiseman's next film was ""Missile"", a documentary about the ICBM crews tasked with nuking non-Americans.9/10 ?

| GauguinWhen a week ago I watched the same director's documentary short about another famous Impressionist painter as part of my Oscar season, I never thought I would be paying him tribute so soon after on account of his passing! This one-reeler ? generally referred to solely as GAUGUIN ? is essentially a companion piece to VAN GOGH (1948) but, curiously enough, no mention is made here of the two giants' friendship! Indeed, the film follows pretty much the same style ? telling the man's life-story by way of his works, with narration in this case supplied by Jean Servais. Still, its shorter duration should not suggest that Gauguin had it much better than Van Gogh: true, he may not have been a mental case prone to self-mutilation, but he was no less plagued by self-doubt, restless (apparently, he died pining for his former surroundings midway through capturing its landscape!), lonely (he literally forsook familial responsibilities in the single-minded pursuit of his vocation!) and misunderstood!! For the record, Gauguin's exploits (which took him from France to Tahiti!) inspired renowned American author W. Somerset Maugham for the subject of his ""The Moon And Sixpence"" ? superbly filmed by Albert Lewin in 1942, with George Sanders giving one of his finest performances. I do not wish, at this stage, to compare Gauguin's artistry with that of Van Gogh's: the former's canvasses display undeniable texture, especially where faces and nudes (several South Sea women were rendered for posterity in their natural state!) are concerned, but then seem oddly slapdash when it comes to depicting religious iconography!! | 1950 | Alain Resnais (*) | Documentary, Short | 6.4 (180 votes) | 14 | 20211228 |

| I, CurmudgeonAlan Zweig. I had the pleasure of watching I Curmudgeon to-day on the I.F.C. I loved it!!! I often feel like I'm marching alone to a tune no one else hears..Perhaps intelligence invites misery. I'm not so much depressed as chronically disappointed in what many people settle for. It seems most important to achieve a comfortable numbness- a sameness of affect, thought and behavior. The hardest thing for me about any career was how to navigate the morning "" Good Morning"" or "" How are you to-day?"" These simple human interactions left me confused and baffled..They still do. Socially I am totally inept. I was trained from birth to exceed- to become perfect. Social norms about such lofty matters as purses matching shoes were drilled into me from birth. What the parents and so-called adults failed to communicate was the value of truth. All the stuff that was given time and energy was, to me, meaningless and trite. It didn't matter if you dad beat you senseless as long as you kissed the Monsigneur's ring and memorized the green catechism.. I still don't understand. I don't even want to.. You film made me laugh and feel a sense of belonging among fellow misfits. Thank you for making me enjoy having a brain and some independence of thought. Your work is much appreciated by this retired ( but not mindless) woman. | 2004 | Alan Zweig | Documentary | 7.4 (116 votes) | 0 | 20211228 |

| Men Who Made the Movies - Vincente MinnelliAn in depth look at the films and creative process of Vincente Minnelli. MUCH deeper than the breezy rapid fire clip approach of films like That's Entertainment. Certainly the most coherent, technical and enjoyable interview with the master in the comfort of his home. Some of the clips were used very effectively later in the show Minnelli On Minnelli. This is better. Minnelli directly addresses the camera and is well cut over clips from many of his amazing movies. He explores his own inspiration, decision making process and pays a loving and very generous tribute to the immense gifts of his former wife, Judy Garland. Humor, intelligence and the magic of moviemaking are all highlighted in this glimpse of The Man Who Made Those Wonderful Movies. This is a hard to find title, but 16MM and VHS copies do exist. Other great Hollywood Directors covered in this series include Alfred Hitchcock, Howard Hawks, Raoul Walsh, Frank Capra, King Vidor and more. Also turned into the book The Men Who Made The Movies. The other episodes and the book are also HIGHLY recommended. | 1973 | Richard Schickel | Documentary | 8.3 (228 votes) | 57 | 20211228 |
| Men Who Made the Movies - William A. WellmanIncluded on the Turner Classic ""Forbidden Hollywood Vol III"" films by William Wellman, this documentary from 1973 describes the life and films of Wellman. Filmed shortly prior to his 1975 death, this one includes live interviews from the actor/writer/director himself. They spend quite a bit of time on James Cagney's performances, as they had made three films together. Several stories of his battles with the producers and studio heads of the early days. This documentary also spends some time on his pre-code films of the early 1930s, and even one of the slightly steamy ""Tarzan"" movies. Feisty character! Interesting to watch, and even more-so because so much is told by the man himself, with some narration by Robert Wagner. Wellman tells us much of his material was pulled right from his own life. Directed by historian Richard Schickel, who had written, directed and produced the TV series which chronicled the lives of the early Hollywood directors. | 1973 | Richard Schickel | Documentary, Biography | 6.8 (240 votes) | 58 | 20211228 |

| ModelIn my entry on ""Juvenile Court"", I discussed the metaphorical use of a documentary subject. Should a subject reflect only itself, or can it be used to reflect a broader context?The issue of using events in documentary films to focus on broader events could be discussed further using Wiseman's film ""Model"" as an example. This film has been criticized for lacking the ""edge"" of Wiseman's earlier films, and indeed, there at first don't appear to be any stand out scenes that leap out at the viewer. One would have thought that with a subject such as the fashion industry, Wiseman would have a lot to say concerning class and culture. Upon closer inspection however, one can see details that reflect subtle comments about the subjects. The detachment from the subject could be a reflection of the coldness of the atmosphere.There are many examples of this. In his essay ""Wiseman's 'Model' and the Documentary Project"", Dan Armstrong writes: ""In sequence after sequence he shows us models at work, presenting themselves to the camera after being suitably dressed, painted combed, brushed, placed into a context, and moved about. They are, in effect, so many props, inanimate objects, mannequins to display the clothing and project 'personality.' In one revealing sequence, three French models get the pose 'right' only after following directions to 'ignore one another. Pretend you're mannequins in a Bloomingdale window.'""Armstrong goes on to talk of a scene where male models stand in the corner of a room during a party, in frozen mannequin poses, sometimes framing them between some of the 'beautiful' party-goers. Armstrong also mentions Wiseman's repeated use of mannequins, ""employing them as symbols of the commodified self, the individual as object and product of the market."" What should we make of Wiseman's detached view?Perhaps ultimately we should all judge for ourselves. Wiseman makes his films to try to bring a point across, but not force it. As Wiseman in a 2000 interview with ""Film Maker"" magazine put it: ""The notion that [my films] could be objective ? I don't know how to deal with that. Every aspect of filmmaking represents a choice, whether it's the choice of subject matter, the way it's shot the way it's edited, the length of the film, or the duration and order of the sequences?. So I've never been able to get involved in this objectivity business. But at the same time, the word I substitute for 'objective' is 'fair.' And again, that's totally subjective. But I mean fair in the sense that I try to be open to the experience I have in making the film?. I try not to impose my preconceived ideas onto the material.""We have here an example of a filmmaker whom although makes films with a certain goal, there is enough in them to suggest that he is aware of other opinions and regards them as well. As for whether his films are exploitative, it could be said that what a person brings to the film, his or her opinion about what they have seen, is entirely their own, and has nothing to do with Wiseman. Ultimately, it could be said that he just makes films, and despite what believes about what he has filmed, what is ethical, or what is unethical, is only what we agree, or disagree with. | 1981 | Frederick Wiseman (*) | Documentary | 7.1 (149 votes) | 129 | 20211228 |
