Film Fans Rejoice - Night of the Hunter Mania
(also posted to the Beast Blog, but too good to just leave there...)
This weekend and next week, the Pacific Film Archive has a special treat for film lovers.
On Saturday, July 26th, there's CHARLES LAUGHTON DIRECTS THE NIGHT OF THE HUNTER: A PRESENTATION OF OUTTAKES FROM THE FILM. And on July 30th, they're showing the film in pristine condition.
I had the delight of seeing this presentation last year in Los Angeles, and wrote it about it (with lots of pictures). If that doesn't encourage you to go, nothing will.
