ImageSaturday Night at the Zizkov Film Klub take in a quadruple dose of noir with The Amputee, Block, A Dective Story and cult favorite Equilibrium.

 

No entry free from the non-profit ZFK, just a night of fine film.

 

The Amputee (1973) David Lynch

The Amputee features a woman with both her legs amputated at the knees, sitting alone in a room, writing a letter and mentally reading it to herself. The letter details various relationships gone bad, both hers and others. As she writes, a doctor comes in and attends to her legs, yet she pays no attention to him. The scene was shot twice with no sound, which Lynch added later. "It was really cool because we couldn't shoot sync sound, so we shot it and then ran it back and foleyed the whole thing live to picture. It was pretty exciting to do sound effects on the fly."


Block (2007) BogArt

A trendy writer moves into Birkenhead's notorious North End to try and break his writer's block - with dire global consequences for human and not-so-humankind.


A Detective Story (2003) Animatrix

A private detective is hired to track down the computer hacker known as Trinity. But as he gets close his goal, reality takes a weird turn for him.

 

Equilibrium (2002) Kurt Wimmer

Screening of the cult sci-fi movie Starring Christian Bale, Sean Bean and Taye Diggs.

In a futuristic world, a strict regime has eliminated war by suppressing emotions: books, art and music are strictly forbidden and feeling is a crime punishable by death. Clerick John Preston (Christian Bale) is a top ranking government agent responsible for destroying those who resist these rules. When he misses a dose of Prozium, a mind-altering drug that hinders emotion, Preston, who has been trained to enforce the strict laws of the new regime, suddenly becomes the only person capable of overthrowing it.
