til 16/8 (Mu Meson / AGNSW additions)





In my previous post, I asked where would Sydneysiders go to see bizarro obscurities after Brett Garten was relieved of his duties as the curator of the Chauvel's cinematheque; a question that was far more rhetorical than it should've been. It reminded me of how often I take Annandale's Mu Meson archives for granted, probably considering they play something every few nights and frequently repeat their programs... I haven't seen any of the films this week, but showing tonight is  "a rare screening of Kim Jong Il's amazing giant monster movie "Pulgasari" - commissioned by the glorious leader himself using a kidnapped director and lead actress", and on the 16th is a double bill of evil cat movies, which should require no further endorsement for the psychotronically inclined.




At the Art Gallery of NSW, the 'Intensely Dutch Films' program is on its last stretch, with children's film Little Maria screening on Sunday the 9th at 2pm, but the main attraction is Alex van Warmerdam's acclaimed surreal black comedy De Noordelingen (Northerners), screening at both 2pm and 7:15pm on Wednesday the 12th and again on Sunday the 16th at 2pm. All Gallery screenings are free.
