The Three Winds of Albert Lamorisse
YesThis text discusses the films of French director Albert Lamorisse in relation to the poetics of cinema. It focuses on three
of Lamorisseās films, Crin Blanc (1953), Le Ballon Rouge (1956) and Le Vent des Amoureux (1978), in order to examine his
fascination with wind, a force of nature, due to its invisibility, that is virtually impossible to capture on film. Certain French
theorists, however, have tried to explain the power of the wind, most notably Gaston Bachelard, whose works are quoted here
as part of the analysis, while a few distinguished filmmakers, such as Joris Ivens and Andrei Tarkovsky, have used wind in
interesting ways. But only Lamorisse had what could be described as a sustained obsession. Despite early success (the great
French film theorist AndrƩ Bazin was praiseworthy about his short films), Lamorisse has been somewhat neglected in recent
years. Thus, this essay highlights the unique skills of a āforgotten manā of French post-war cinema
Measuring change
A change in the reporting of HbA1c is
being adopted globally,
including in Australia.
It's anticipated that this
change will, among other
things, make it easier for doctors
to educate their patients
about the importance of glycaemic
control. However, to
understand how this change
will help in practice, it's useful
to firstly understand what
HbA1c is and to know something
of the history of how
laboratories have measured
the HbA1c assay
