We'll be looking at Five, Panic in Year Zero!, Crack in the World, The War Game, The End We Start From and, the pinnacle of polycrisis cinema, @asifkapadia.bsky.social's 2073.
@tommylynch.bsky.socialReposted by @asifkapadia.bsky.socialNext week I'm going to be giving a talk at Lund University on 'Cruel Hope at the End of the World: The Dilemmas of Polycrisis Cinema'. It's the first time I'll be laying out some of the key dimensions of my apocalyptic cinema book project.

Let there be blanks instead of Manchester City’s name on trophies: there was no honour
By Jonathan Wilson
Let them stand as a warning of the dangers of laissez-faire capitalism, when everything, no matter how beloved, could be sold off to the highest bidder.

@asifkapadia.bsky.socialThe movie is Once Upon a Time in the West, released in 1968. In the list of directors it was around 46th place and surpassed any other western included in the vote. Among those who chose it are filmmakers such as Asghar Farhadi, Nicolas Winding Refn and Asif Kapadia.

@esherukweku.bsky.socialReposted by @asifkapadia.bsky.socialEverything is being done to ensure Reform win the next general election.
