- Summary:
- "Bartleby, (1972) Directed by Anthony Friedman Bartleby, the Scrivener: A Story of Wall Street is a short story written by Herman Melville. It first appeared anonymously in two parts in the November and December 1853 editions of Putnam's Magazine. There have been three or more film versions, two English (1972 and 2001) and one French (1976). The figure of Bartleby has been influential upon post-war political philosophy, particularly in a post-workerist (post-operaismo) and refusal of work tendencies, Melville's story is discussed by Maurice Blanchot, Jacques Derrida, Gilles Deleuze, Giorgio Agamben, Antonio Negri and Franco 'Bifo' Berardi. Full Unemployment Cinema will be showing the 1972 English film version directed by Anthony Friedman and starring Paul Scofield. We'll also be showing the final 3 shorts which make up Nicholas Rey's Anders, Moulussien."-- provided by distributor.
