DEEP DIVE: Indignities Everywhere - A DCC Bleak Month
Details
Bleak Week? Tired. Bleak Month? WIRED.
Babe, we're doing Bleak MONTH! The Sie did a Bleak Week and while good, imo it's not nearly bleak enough. Some (maybe just a couple) of DCC's Deep Divers will be partaking in a month long sessions of the most bleak, depressing, dark films to have been printed on screen. They will make numb you, upset you, disturb you, and also hopefully heal you. Let's dive in!
For my Bleak picks, we're looking at works by a few masters. Sorry but we only play hits!
