For details see: https://rexbern.ch/filmreihen/david-lynch

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: Inland Empire is a 2006 surrealist, experimental, psychological thriller art film written, directed, and produced by David Lynch in his final directional feature film before his death in 2025. Released with the tagline "A Woman in Trouble", the film follows the fragmented and nightmarish events surrounding a Hollywood actress (Laura Dern) who begins to take on the personality of a character she plays in a supposedly cursed film production.

The cast includes such Lynch regulars as Laura Dern, Justin Theroux, Harry Dean Stanton, and Grace Zabriskie, as well as Jeremy Irons, Karolina Gruszka, Peter J. Lucas, Krzysztof Majchrzak, and Julia Ormond. There are also brief appearances by a host of additional actors, including Nastassja Kinski, Laura Harring, Terry Crews, Mary Steenburgen, Diane Ladd, and William H. Macy.

The film premiered at the 63rd Venice International Film Festival where Lynch was awarded the Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement. It tied the second-best film of 2007 by Cahiers du cinéma and was listed among "Sight & Sound's" films of the decade, as well as The Guardian's "10 most underrated movies of the decade".
