Derek (2008)

Derek, in chronological order, records the work and life that stands at the foot of Derek Jarman's humour and spirit of being an artist. The filmmaker and actress, Isaac Julien and Tilda Swinton respectively, have produced and narrated a film on his life whereby the use of language is perpetuated to give some type of palpable meaning to British audiences alone, and to their own personal relationship with him.

Great film based around an interview with Jarman and a letter that his friend Tilda Swinton wrote to him posthumously. Gripping viewing.

Strikes a moody and atmospheric tone that's perfectly suited to Swinton's somnolent voiceover. And a wealth of imagery makes it worth seeking out

Intriguing portrait of Derek Jarman, centered on interviews that Jarman gave over the years (he was a very articulate as well as a conscientiously visible spokesman for gay filmmaking in the UK during the 1980s and 1990s), combined with comments (in the form of a letter) by his friend/colleague/muse Tilda Swinton. The movie is incredibly smooth, almost hypnotically so, but it's a little removed, there's not quite the pulse of great passion which was always present in Jarman's own work. That one caveat aside, this was an excepional "portrait of the artist" and an excellent new film by Isaac Julien.
