Engaging audiences in some of the finest cinematic visions and much more at Watershed, Bristol and beyond. Founder of Cinema Rediscovered, bringing great films back to the big screen since 2016. Ops my own.
Finally getting round to my first screening in the #berlinale75 brilliantly titled retrospective programme Wild, Weird, Bloody: German Genre Films of the 70s in the new #deutschekinemathek venue

At #berlinale75 and just caught 1st film of day - Mickey 17 is a blast of a satire (more pointed given what is happening in US) Multiple Pattison’s and a Ruffalo are on great form.

Had the great pleasure/privilege to meet David Lynch. He was making lithographs in Paris. When asked what he liked about working in black and white he said in that distinctive “Jimmy Stewart from Mars” drawl “well, you know, the darker and deeper the black the more you understand the white.” RIP

Lots to admire in Eggers’ restaging of Nosferatu - loved the filming and intense atmosphere of Hutter’s journey to, and encounter with, Count Orlok in his castle. But nothing matches the pathos, poetry and tragedy of Herzog and Kinski’s Nosferatu except perhaps the original 😂
