Description

David Thomson proposes: forget that movies may be art or show business. They are an experiment with our sense of reality. Thus, it is in entering into a picture and emerging from it that the culture shock is most apparent and instructive. So he will talk about how movies begin and how they end by drawing upon Citizen Kane and Psycho. A master class in our culture of the dark—lovely and menacing.
