Cinema Paradiso's film showing on Saturday 1st June is "The Piano"
A 1993 Australia Drama, Music, Romance. It combines masterful scripting, cinematography, performances, and musical score into a disturbing, erotic, and ultimately uplifting piece - it won 3 Oscars.
The movie's heroine, wonderfully portrayed by Holly Hunter, is mute (symbolic of the fact that she has no say in her own life), with her daughter (the astonishing Anna Paquin) and her piano as her personal obsessions. Her conscripted husband, coldly played by Sam Neill, is trying to win her heart and her desire in all the wrong ways, while his crude tribal neighbour, sensually played by Harvey Keitel, understands her needs and ultimately captures her physically, intellectually, and romantically.
Showing at the C4 Theatrette, Porters Prom, North Mission Beach next to the Information Centre.
Guest and Visitors Welcome $10, doors open at 6.30pm Film starts at 7pm.
