DE PALMAGEDDON
A Brian De Palma Festival
at Tower Cinemas, Newcastle
Widely considered his masterpiece, Blow Out continues to be reappraised by modern audiences as a stunning achievement in cinema.
De Palma's loose remake of Antonioni's Blowup, this atmospheric paranoia thriller came about when John Travolta approached De Palma to make him the star of his own movie following their work together on Carrie.
The film features John Lithgow's most chilling performance.
Blow Out: "While recording sound effects for a slasher flick, Jack Terry stumbles upon a real-life horror: a car careening off a bridge and into a river. Jack jumps into the water and fishes out Sally from the car, but the other passenger is already dead — a governor intending to run for president. As Jack does some investigating of his tapes, and starts a perilous romance with Sally, he enters a tangled web of conspiracy that might leave him dead."
Don't miss your rare chance to see this masterwork on the big screen at Tower Cinemas, Newcastle, this October.
