📝 Plot: In an opulent French villa, a seemingly innocent babysitter becomes the center of a web of danger, murder, and hidden agendas. Secrets, deceit, and escalating tension turn domestic life into a gripping psychological thriller, blending suspense, intrigue, and classic 1970s European giallo-style cinematic flair.

Here's my latest for the Arts Fuse: A review of the Maria Schneider Orchestra's important new EP, "American Crow."

"The instrumentation and their combinations follow no rules except what she’s hearing, moment by moment, and the structures of her all-original compositions and arrangements create their own internal narrative logic. She’s a storyteller, and that’s the best way to approach her music for the first time. You listen like you read a short story, with your full attention, and your imagination synced with all of your senses."

Jazz Album Review: "American Crow" - Maria Schneider's Urgent Jazz EP Crows Against Big Tech - The Arts Fuse

Composer and bandleader Maria Schneider is a storyteller, and that’s the best way to approach her music for the first time. You listen like you read a short story, with your full attention, and your imagination synced with all of your senses.

The Arts Fuse

You must watch Maria Schneider's beautiful new music video for "American Crow."

"It speaks to the toxicity of our present social discourse that’s devolved into an impenetrable knot of curated rage. We crow about each other incessantly, having lost almost any ability or wish to really listen and understand those with whom we disagree.

“For decades now, every time I hear my band play, I witness the magic of listening. A true jazz improvisor thrives on listening: waiting, responding, considering, reconsidering, responding again, sometimes in ways that surprise even the improvisor. Jazz is at its best when everyone is vulnerable. Improvisation asks everyone to risk what they think they know, and offers them an opportunity – through listening – to discover something new in themselves. Jazz shines a light on what we are allowing to slip away in our brittle and fractured world, making our art form more relevant today than ever before.”

Har fått spela #MariaSchneider ikväll. En sådan ynnest! Det förvandlar den motigaste dag till en ljuvlig kväll.

I liked the languid pace, however I wasn't overly convinced the plot was fleshed out enough, it felt almost superfluous.

The Passenger

David Locke is a world-weary American journalist who has been sent to cover a conflict in northern Africa, but he makes little progress with the story. When he discovers the body of a stranger who looks similar to him, Locke assumes the dead man's identity. However, he soon finds out that the man was an arms dealer, leading Locke into dangerous situations. Aided by a beautiful woman, Locke attempts to avoid both the police and criminals out to get him.

#AMFF2025. #BeingMaria recrea con acierto la toxicidad en el rodaje de #ElÚltimoTangoEnParís, pero el retrato que hace de #MariaSchneider como mujer herida es insuficiente en este necesario ajuste de cuentas.
