Morbs, how soon in advance should I be reserving spaces for the Tsai retro
― 龜, Monday, 30 March 2015 15:29 (nine years ago) link
I don't know -- I assume they are going to be in the big room? or is the Mad Men sidebar still going to be running?
Really, the acclaimed Tsai films haven't been that hard to see, so i don't know if they'd fill the main theater.

Comfort of Strangers didn't seem all that special at the time - the Venetian setting and air of menace couldn't help but bring to mind Don't Look Now, to which it is markedly inferior - but I wouldn't be surprised if it's actually aged quite well. Pinter screenplay, iirc.
