and now this, (following on from Salo).
I was encouraged to travel to the Bradford Film Festival in the hopes of seeing 2001 on a curved screen for the first time in thirty years. Ah, nostalgia! The last film viewing I had was at the notorious Broadbottom Film Club with a screen especially extended by my bed sheets. And Anne complaining that she hadn't come to see a film about monkeys! Still. Sold out weeks ago. Why couldn't I find that out from the information line?
Plan B. A trip to the iMAX cinema and Cirque du Soleil. This is in 3-D. And it's big. And it's boring. It stars sychronised swimmers for God's sake!
Do I have to do this? It's like reviewing a new "Janet & John" book.
