The Bigger Picture film club ? ?Nocturnal Animals? (2016) at the Ivy House on 28 June 2018


Recommended Posts

The Bigger Picture film club will be showing ?Nocturnal Animals? (2016) at 8pm on Thursday, 28 June 2018, at the Ivy House.


With Nocturnal Animals you get two films for the price of one. The first film (reality) tells of Los Angeles art dealer Susan, divorced and remarried, whose novelist first husband Edward sends her his new novel, together with an invitation to dinner. Susan is becoming estranged from her (brute of a) second husband, and as she reads the novel, elements remind her of her first marriage to Edward whose pet name for her, Nocturnal Animal, is also the book?s title.


The second film is the novel as it plays out in her head, with her real first husband as its chief protagonist. As the ?second? film ? a western revenge tragedy - unfolds, so do her fond (and not so fond) memories of her first marriage and its downfall. Jake Gyllenhaal plays the first husband and novel ?hero?, with Amy Adams the art-dealer wife.


Director: Tom Ford

USA

Running time: 116 minutes.

Cert: 15


We say: this is a modern, award-winning film with strong leads and direction, with a suitably enigmatic and post-modern conclusion.


Film at 8pm.

    • It doesn't work as a commercial venture.  Bit churlish to say I told you so.  I told you so.  I'll send less greetings cards.  What pees me off is international postage where you can no longer send light letters at 10 grammes, normal ones up to 20g, now all at the much more expensive 100 g  Didn't we vote to take back control and price everything according to irrational units like ounces? That's some obscure humour btw   
    • Available from Monday April 8th 2024, 2on2Walkies take pride in doggie care and only walk 2 furry friends at a time. I make sure that they get plenty of doggie interaction and socialisation in the park as well as making friends. Back home happy and tired I always check that the water bowl has fresh water and always make sure the doggie is left comfortable before I leave. I'm fully insured and have a couple of slots available for local walks to either Peckham Rye Park or Dulwich Park.  Thank you!  
    • Why would they only send them recorded delivery? I used the signed for option yesterday.
    • > however I know I will have to prove it and provide a receipt,  both I can't provide. So what leads you to say that the dustmen have done damage to it?
