The Turin Horse - Sunday 14th October 5pm


We have ... and experience for you this week! The Turin Horse, directed by Bela Tarr.  To set the mood, here's a quote from (an admittedly little known) critic - Jeffery M Anderson (Combustible Celluloid) -
'The good news is that a new Bela Tarr movie is here. The bad news is that Tarr, who is easily one of the greatest film makers alive today -- and perhaps of all time -- has announced that The Turin Horse will be his last' .
Bela Tarr is a grandmaster of film direction, specialising in long takes to pull you into the film (his first film had only two takes...and it was 'Macbeth'!). For this film, he takes us to the end of the world..or is he re-running the beginning of the world, but backwards...?
