Meeting time allows us 15 minutes before the film starts to find each other - please be on time so we can get seats together. In English with German subtitles.

Note: Tickets can also be reserved one week in advance and if the films prove popular I will probably reserve my seats to be sure of getting in. In that case, I will publish my seat number on Meetup Bern.

=========================
Tonight's movie: Wild at Heart is a 1990 American black comedy romantic crime drama thriller film written and directed by David Lynch starring Nicolas Cage, Laura Dern, Willem Dafoe, Crispin Glover, Diane Ladd, Isabella Rossellini and Harry Dean Stanton.

Lynch intended only to produce the film, but after reading Barry Gifford's book, he decided to write and direct it as well. He disliked the ending of the novel and decided to change it to fit his vision of the main characters. The film is noted for its allusions to The Wizard of Oz and Elvis Presley.

The film won the Palme d'Or at the 1990 Cannes Film Festival. At the 6th Independent Spirit Awards, Dafoe was nominated for Best Supporting Male and Elmes won for Best Cinematography. Ladd was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress and the Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actress – Motion Picture at the 63rd Academy Awards and the 48th Golden Globe Awards, respectively. The film has been positively reevaluated by critics in the years since its release.
