8½ (Fellini, 1963): Curzon Mayfair, 7.40pm
This screening, one of the final ones before Curzon Mayfair closes, is part of the 'David Lynch Stole Christmas' season at Curzon cinemas. Full details here.
Chicago Reader review:
If what you know about this exuberant, self-regarding movie comes from its countless inferior imitations (from Mazursky’s Alex in Wonderland and The Pickle to Allen’s Stardust Memories to Fosse’s All That Jazz), you owe it to yourself to see Federico Fellini’s exhilarating, stocktaking original... It’s Fellini’s last black-and-white picture, and conceivably the most gorgeous and inventive thing he’s ever made — certainly more fun than anything he’s made since.
Jonathan Rosenbaum
Here (and above) is the BFI trailer.
