TIERE
The logical successor to classic mindbenders like PROVIDENCE and MULHOLLAND DRIVE
2020: The Year in Bedlam
2020 was a hell of a year
1982: The Year in Bedlam
What follows are the type of little-known films that tend to comprise my “Look Back in Bedlam” listings, of which this is the 1982 entry
GIRLY
This British oddity represents yet another case of promising material given indifferent treatment
DANILOV THE VIOLINIST

THE EYES OF THE CAT

LUX ÆTERNA
This bizarre concoction is pure Gaspar Noé: an intense psychodrama marked by technical bravura and a highly experimental thrust
SODOM AND GOMORRAH: THE LAST SEVEN DAYS
Another 1970s era dispatch from the Weird Porno category
I’M THINKING OF ENDING THINGS
A most unlikely offering from writer-director Charlie Kaufman
VALI
A now obscure hour long “trance film” from 1965 about the late Vali Myers (1930-2003)
