The Picture House – A Cinema Thread

Saw the trailer which whet my appetite for it.

I’m taking mine as soon as possible, although most of them are adults now!

4K restoration of Farewell My Concubine in a mostly Mandarin-speaking packed house.

Hadn’t seen since college days…incredible.

Obsession … 5 stars. A cracker! Don’t read up about it before you go.

My Kids, 18 and 20 have seen both, and they both preferred Obsession to say the least.

Yeah, I saw it last week at HOME , really enjoyed it.

I didn’t read up on it beforehand and wasn’t entirely sure what was going on. Some people comment that the storyline is a bit lacking, it makes up for it viscerally.

It’s a bit Lynchian in ways.

Soundtrack, sound and location are good, there’s also a scene that features a legendary music equipment extra.

It’s the first Kane Parsons film i’ve seen, have you seen anything else he’s done?

I haven’t, isn’t he more of a YouTube guy? They went into a fair bit of depth on The Rest is Entertainment podcast. Really need to get to the cinema to see it but most of the showings are in the evening which I struggle to get to

Obsession. " Just be normal, Nikki". Sadly, for Bear that was never going to be a possibility. Brilliant take on the Midas story.
