“First we'll have an orgy and then we'll go see Tony Bennett.”
Naked meditation, primal screaming, gestalt therapy and swinging… film curator Ranjit S. Ruprai and film critic Phuong Le introduce Paul Mazursky’s classic take on privileged West-coast Americans dabbling with new age lifestyles in the era of free love. An amazing Quincy Jones soundtrack, featuring Burt Bacharach, will get you in the mood for 1969 and the dialogue by Mazursky/Tucker is an utter delight. Join us for this special screening and feel free to wear your hippy beads!
RANJIT REWINDS
This screening coincides with the first series of the podcast Ranjit Rewinds that focuses on the actor, writer and filmmaker Robert Culp. This is the film that made Robert Culp hot property in Hollywood after a career in theatre and television, but he was not able to capitalise on it and remained a star of the smaller screen. Ranjit & Phuong will discuss Culp’s wonderful performance and even more wonderful outfits before the film.
