WEDNESDAY 10 MARCH, Prince Charles Cinema<\/A>, 6pm+ 8pm <\/B>: Guy Maddin Double Bill: CAREFUL + THE SADDEST MUSIC IN THE WORLD<\/I> <\/B> <\/p>\n

We celebrate the genius of Guy Maddin, who over the last two decades has developed an entirely personal and always enchanting world, poetic, macabre and playful in equal measures. <\/p>\n

A delirious silent-style homage to the German mountain film of the 1920s, Careful<\/I> takes place in a village whose inhabitants must talk in whispers for fear of triggering an avalanche. In such a repressed environment, forbidden passions and incestuous desires dangerously come close to boiling point. This is a very rare occasion to see Maddin’s feverish mountain extravaganza on the big screen.<\/p>\n

In The Saddest Music in the World<\/I>, a musical set in Winnipeg, Isabella Rossellini’s crippled baroness holds a contest to find the saddest music performer on earth. Eccentric musical interludes alternate with a convoluted story of complicated love triangles, familial rivalries and buried past traumas, the outlandish melodrama shot through with exquisitely strange details (glass legs filled with beer!) and deadpan humour. Hilarious, dreamlike and full of wonders, this is a film like no other. Watch and be amazed!<\/p>\n

\t FILM WRITING COMPETITION:<\/B>
\n Film students and aspiring film writers are invited to enter our film writing competition: write a 200-word review of Careful<\/I> or The Saddest Music in the World<\/I> and send it to ladyvengeance@electricsheepmagazine.com, marked ‘Film writing competition’ in the subject line.
