Cinema

I'm going to see Sin City on Monday at 18:20 at the VUE Cambridge. Anyone want to join me?

Tonight was [livejournal.com profile] camgothfilmclub which featured the superb film noir The Third Man and the hammy House on Haunted Hill.
I hadn't seen The Third Man for about a 20 years and I don't think I ever saw it from beginning to end. It is one of if not the best films of its time and a prime example of Film Noir. The photography is wonderfully stark and the unusual zither soundtrack haunting.
House on Haunted Hill is a typical 50's horror affair with scream queens and the wonderful Vincent Price. It has a couple of nice twists and even gets away with some bad SFX.
Thoroughly enjoyable.

Unfortunately, I'm busy on Sunday and the VUE is more convenient for me.
Still better than Cineworld, though.
