SUMMARY:To Die For | Cult Classics at the NFSA
DESCRIPTION:MA15+ | 107 Mins | Cult Classics with Venus Mantrap | 1995 | DCP | US\, UK\, CAN | D: Gus Van Sant \nArc Cinema presents a series of irreverent Friday night filmic feasts\, curated and hosted by drag artist and culture warrior Venus Mantrap. \nCult Classics with Venus Mantrap explores the archives to showcase cinema with bite: films that unnerve\, push buttons\, ask questions and just look good on the big screen! Gather your tribe of misfits and rowdy rebels and join Venus for edgy movies\, fan favourites and hidden gems. \nSuzanne Stone (Nicole Kidman) is a weather reporter in the fictional town of Little Hope\, with aspirations that bleed beyond the confines of her small-town existence. With her husband (Matt Dillon) standing in her way\, she exploits three aimless adolescents (including Joaquin Phoenix and Casey Affleck) to clear a path to success. \nWinding up our ‘Warped Winter’ mini-series is Gus Van Sant’s darkly comic film that scrutinises America’s tabloid culture with a scathing satirical lens\, whilst extracting one of Kidman’s best screen performances in a role she famously lobbied for. \n“To Die For changed the Kidman conversation. Her performance was seen as a revelation of previously unknown talent.” – SBS \n“To Die For is the kind of movie that’s merciless with its characters\, and Kidman is superb at making Suzanne into someone who is not only stupid\, vain and egomaniacal (we’ve seen that before) but also vulnerably human. She represents\, on a large scale\, feelings we have all had in smaller and sneakier ways. She simply lacks skill in concealing them.” – Roger Ebert \nIncludes pre-screening introduction and live performance by Venus Mantrap. \nImages Courtesy of Park Circus/ITV Studios \nThe details\nWhat: Screening of To Die For with introduction and live performance by Venus Mantrap\nWhen: Fri 29 Aug 8:00 PM\nWhere: Arc Cinema\, NFSA Acton\nCost: $18 Full / $14 Concession (+$1.50 booking fee) via the NFSA website \nAccessibility\nWe believe everyone should have the opportunity to experience film.
