GRIMM MATINEE- COMPANY OF WOLVES (1984)
Advertisement
"Company of Wolves" (1984) starts off the first installment in this month's Sunday matinee series on shapeshifting and female desire.
Neil Jordan's lush, dreamlike fairy tale — adapted from Angela Carter's short story — follows a teenage girl adrift in a forest of half-remembered warnings and half-understood desires. Told through nested dreams and stories-within-stories, it reimagines "Little Red Riding Hood" as something stranger and more knowing: a coming-of-age tale where the danger in the woods might not be what she's been told to fear. Angela Lansbury stars as the grandmother spinning cautionary tales of wolves — a wonderfully sly turn from an actress better known for her cozier roles. Gorgeously shot, unsettling, and shot through with dark wit, The "Company of Wolves" asks what really happens when a girl stops being afraid of the wolf.
95 minutes, Rated R
