The Outsider (Tarr, 1981): BFI Southbank, NFT2, 6.10pm
This film also screens on August 23rd and is part of the Bela Tarr season at BFI Southbank.
Chicago Reader review:
Hungarian filmmaker Bela Tarr’s second feature (1981), 146 minutes long,
is a portrait of a restless young male nurse and factory worker (Andras
Szabo) who plays the violin and seems unhappy with both the woman who
bore him a child and the woman he subsequently marries. The key
filmmaking influence here is John Cassavetes, and much of the film is
shot in close-ups, making for a stark oppressiveness.
Jonathan Rosenbaum
Here (and above) is the trailer.
