Pan's Labyrinth, 3rd November 2009, 19:00, ALT 1

Hi all,

This week we're showing Guillermo del Torro's fantasy/Spanish Civil War
masterpiece Pan's Labyrinth in the ALT1.

Here's a synopsis unceremoniously swiped off Amazon:
"Set in rural Spain, circa 1944, Ofelia and her widowed mother, Carmen, have
just moved into an abandoned mill with Carmen's new husband, Captain Vidal.
Carmen is pregnant with his son. Other than her sickly mother and kindly
housekeeper Mercedes, the dreamy Ofelia is on her own. Vidal, an exceedingly
cruel man, couldn't be bothered. He has informers to torture. Ofelia soon
finds that an entire universe exists below the mill. Her guide is the
persuasive Faun. As her mother grows weaker, Ofelia spends more and more
time in the satyr's labyrinth. He offers to help her out of her predicament
if she'll complete three treacherous tasks..."

After that, we'll be heading down to our new haunt, The Stumble Inn, so
don't forget your NUS cards!

See you on Tuesday,

Mohamed

Sure, whynot? Not like I have anything better to do...



I kid, I kid... I really would like to see that film, it's one of many I missed when it came out, while vaguely intending to see it "some time".



See you on Tuesday!
