It's that time again, the time when I point up some films showing at the NFT, say that I'll be going along, invite all-comers and am roundly ignored.
So...
Michael Powell season!
Michael Motherfucking Powell!!
I'll be going to a load of them. Definites: The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp; The Red Shoes; The Tales of Hoffman. Maybes: I Know Where I'm Going; A Canterbury Tale. I'll probably drag myself along to A Matter of Life and Death - it is one of my favourite films after all. For those who haven't seen it, Black Narcissus is worth a watch: for my money it is the best film about Himalayan nuns being driven mad with sexual frustration yet directed by an Englishman.
