Today, Up in the Cheap Seats has a couple of events, but I've already seen what they're watching. So, film again, and I still had a backlog of The Unbelievable Truth, Time (both on Amazon Prime), and Zero de Conduite, on the Internet Archive.
Started The Unbelievable Truth yesterday, finished it just now. Excellent, deadpan humour throughout, in this tale of a local lad, returned from prison, and everyone - but everyone - has an exaggerated version of what he did. Very understated performances by everyone, in what must be described as a truly surreal small town - which will still be familiar to anyone who's ever been in one. Highly recommended, for a quirky, offbeat experience. And a real throwback to 80s fashions!
Not much else on right now, so will just work my way through that backlog. When I get a chance..
