We Love David Lynch at Hypnos! And yet there is one work we have never screened, until now...
THE STRAIGHT STORY has been called poignant and profound and been described as "I can't believe David Lynch made this film" - so if you're somehow put off by his other work, here is a Lynch film for you. And for the completists, it's one that has to be seen.
When Alvin Straight, a stubborn, physically-ailing 73yr old, learns that his brother whom he hasn't met in 10 years has had a stroke, he becomes determined to make peace. Due to poor eyesight and bad legs, Alvin doesn't have a drivers license, so he packs up and heads off from Iowa to Wisconsin on his old riding lawn mower.
Sundays this fall, Hypnos will be screening films that let us slow down and settle in. Quiet dramas of changing lives and cinematic poetry.
It should be said that entrance to this film is not included in Film i Malmö memberships. The rights have been attained through Njuta Films.
Entrance is 100sek and is to be paid at the door. Doors open at 17:30. We will put on a pot of damn good coffee.
