Description
Though barely known in the US, Philippe Garrel is widely considered a filmmaking genius and "the Rimbaud of French cinema." We present two of his most intense films, both in new 35mm prints. J’entends plus la guitare is a dramatized version of his traumatic love affair with his muse, musician Nico, made three years after her death. And, Le lit de la vierge, a minimalist-psychedelic retelling of the Christ story, shot in Brittany, Morocco, and Rome under the influence of LSD. As a companion screening, we present Andy Warhol’s raw The Velvet Underground and Nico: A Symphony of Sound, live at the Factory in 1966.When:
J’entends plus la guitar (I don’t hear the guitar anymore): 7:30 pm Thursday, May 15 & Friday, May 16
Le lit de la vierge (The virgin’s bed): 7:30 pm Sunday, May 18
The Velvet Underground and Nico: A Symphony of Sound: 9:30 pm Thursday, May 15 & Friday, May 16
