The Story of Film – An Odyssey
A love letter to film, expressed through the medium of film.
Overview
Are you a bit of a film nerd? Do you obsessively watch Lynch or recite the words to Napoleon Dynamite nonstop?
Well, there’s something the Dendy Newtown are screening which you might be interested in (along with the rest of us). Written and directed by Mark Cousins, The Story of Film: An Odyssey is what he's calling his 'love letter' to film, through the medium of film.
Over five parts (The Beginnings, Studios and the World at War, New Wave, Politics, Pop and Protest, and Birth of Digital and the Future), Cousins leads us from the birth of film to what the future might hold for movies. Charlie Chaplin, all of those glittery Hollywood types, Taxi Driver, Star Wars, and Moulin Rouge are all in there. And yep there will be interviews with some of (hopefully) your favourite filmmakers and actors.
You had better prepare yourself for some serious amounts of screen time.
