A list of films discussed in the recent Offbeat online panel event, handily crafted so you can mark them off as you listen. Remember, this is just for fun.
Julian Upton talks about obscure British movies and their part in his book, Offbeat: British Cinema’s Curiosities, Obscurities and Forgotten Gems.
To coincide with the launch of the revised and updated Offbeat, a series of podcasts relating to the the book presented by some of the contributors.
JENNIFER WALLIS on Andrew Sinclair’s 1973 film, Blue Blood, its real-life and fictional inspirations, and — more importantly perhaps — an arresting performance by Oliver Reed.
Jennifer Wallis reviews Network’s newly-restored DVD release of Just Like a Woman (1966), and enters a surreal cinematic world where hippies, Nazi architects, and unhappy wives find their place in 1960s London.
Short films were once a mainstay of cinemagoing, playing as support to the main feature. Some were good, many were bad. The Orchard End Murder was excellent.
Once upon a time it was common for quirky independent short films to play theatrically in Britain as support to a main feature. But this wasn’t the case for The Adventures of the Son of Exploding Sausage (1969), a quirky thirteen-plus-minute short that starred the Bonzo Dog Band. David Kerekes discusses the matter with Sausage writer/editor/director, David Korr.
