One of the greatest films ever made about the music industry (not to mention one of our favourites), Robert Altman’s masterpiece Nashville is 50 years old.
Weaving together the stories and interactions of twenty-four major characters with astonishing fluidity, this audacious, epic vision of America through the lens of the Nashville music scene has lost none of its freshness or excitement. The fact that the songs (often written by the actors performing them) are brilliant is an added delight.
Taking place over five days, the film follows our characters struggling for fulfilment, both personal and professional, amongst a backdrop of country and gospel musicians, outsider political campaigning, and the peripheries of life in between, building from one encounter at a time to create a wide-ranging tapestry of rich drama and human comedy.
The 5.1 surround sound mix at SARC elevates Altman’s famous signature use of overlapping, scattered dialogue recorded live during production and adds staggering depth, range, and a “vérité aura” to the sound, making the dialogue clear and the tunes really “pop”.
Please Note- the venue has a grid floor and high heels are not permitted.
Food and drink are not permitted in the Lab.
