Demanty noci
After a long time search for Jan Nemec movies I finally found, downloaded and watched his film Demanty noci and ...
I was stunned ... this is the masterpiece of world cinematography! The film tells story about two boys escaping from a transport between concentration camps during second world war. But the story does not make this movie a gem. It is dark and brute atmosphere of their fight for life mixed with surreal introspective hallucinations of both herous. One of the best moments is a escape scene in the intro when the boys run through dark, bleak and endless forrests, swamps and rock fields. Hand held camera, close ups, reflections of the sun ... simply pure art.
Check out detailed review (including other Nemec's movies) at Central Europe review and get the DVD or search torrent trackers.

Apocalypse is aproaching ... let the party begin!
Have seen Philip Ridley's controversial play named Mercury Fur. Don't know why it was prohibited in England and why just a few people stay until the end of the play. Maybe these were just marketing tricks ... anyway the play is worth to see, because of interesting story, stage located in old factory hall, movie like scenes (the actors come by car from outside into the factory etc.) and last but not least on of the roles is Elvis! :)
Also want to mention the flyer ...
