This week sees part three of our cult classics season with
two big ones. First up is the award-winning screenplay by Robert Towne CHINATOWN, a film that has been Etched into filmic history not just for possibly winning every film award around at the time and since but also for, consistently
topping the best 100 films list as well as being selected by the Library of
Congress to be preserved in the United States National Film Registry as a film
of cultural, historical and aesthetic significance. Roman Polanski’s
multi-contextual story is part thriller part mystery part psychological
thriller cleverly assembled within a film noir context to bring to the screen
one of the most visually stunning films of the seventies. Followed by Michael Winterbottom’s
THE KILLER INSIDE ME based on Jim Thompson cult pulp classic of the same name,
this graphic depiction of the fall from grace of a respected county sheriff a well-crafted
tale of violence. Two must-see cult classics this Sunday from 6pm, with the
usual complimentary
Popcorn and rum.
