Akerman, Chantal. Chantal Akerman: Autoportrait en cinéaste. Edited by Claudine Paquot. Paris: Éditions du Centre Pompidou, 2004.
Containing a diaristic essay by Akerman, “Le frigidaire est vide. On peut le remplir,” the book is lavishly illustrated with stills from her work and archive. Scholars, colleagues, and friends each contribute one-page commentaries on one of her thirty-five films and five installations to date. Akerman’s text can be accessed by readers with basic French; however, an English translation of the text can be found in Chantal Akerman: Una autobiografía (Buenos Aires: MALBA–Colección Costantini, 2005).

SUMMARY IN A NUTSHELL: A fool named Toby Noe and his money are soon parted. Ma gives Laura an earful, and Mary turns Pa into a blubbering wreck. [Editor’s note: You better have some Kleenex on hand yourself.] Everybody decides to go home to Walnut Grove, then Michael Landon blows Winoka up.
RECAP: Well, last week we said goodbye to Olive and Roman as they went back to and started college, respectively.
And next week Alexander goes back as well, leaving us for the first time with a truly empty nest. (Mind you, not the popular sitcom starring Granville Whipple.)
We’ll miss them, but as in past years they’ll pop in and help with these recaps from time to time.
And on the bright side, with our daughter Amelia now graduated from college and working right here in Minnesota, she’ll have more opportunities to participate in The Project than she has the past few years.
This makes me smile, because, as longtime readers will recall, Amelia initially thought Little House sucked, but over time became a full convert to the cult.
