Classe tous risques (The Criterion Collection, 6.17.2008) Claude Sautet is best known for subtle interpretations of French bourgeois life in such films as Un coeur en hiver and Nelly & Monsieur Arnaud. Yet the director began his career with genre films.

The IFP is getting an early start on things by announcing its nominations for the 15th Annual Gotham Awards, which will be handed out on 11.30 in New York City. It's a nice inclusionary gesture to nominate Lodge Kerrigan's Keane and Miranda July's You and Me and Everyone We Know as competitors with Brokeback Mountain, Capote and A History of Violence for Best Feature. Ditto Michael Almereyda's William Eggleston in the Real World against Ballet Russes, Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room, Werner Herzog's Grizzly Man and Henry-Alex Rubin and Dana Adam Shapiro's Murderball.
