POP UP CINEMA BRIGHTON

WWC is back at the end of January by which time (let's be honest) you will have given up on the gym membership you so enthusiastically bought at the beginning of the year. So why not let White Wall Cinema do the heavy lifting for you and provide some cinematic 'gymspiration' in the form of a muscular double bill starting with Rose Glass's rippling queer revenge thriller Love Lies Bleeding followed by a magnificent (and no less ripped) mystery movie. 

​

A major step-up from Rose Glass's Bafta Nominated 2020 debut 'Saint Maud' (Mark Kermode's favourite film of that year) Love Lies Bleeding is a uber cool sapphic thriller starring Kristen Stewart as shy and reclusive gym manager Lou living in a rural town in New Mexico in the late 1980s. When she meets ambitious female bodybuilder Jackie (Katy O'Brian), who is en-route to her Vegas bodybuilding competition dreams, romance immediately blossoms, but is stopped in it's tracks by the complications of Lou's dangerous and criminal family headed by her ruthless gangster father Lou Sr (Ed Harris).

 

This hyper stylised, ultra horny revenge thriller splattered with flashes of violence and even a psychedelic horror edge is also blessed with a brilliant soundtrack and an excellent ensemble performance that all adds up to a rip(ped) roaring tale that pulls off the herculean feat of being both a crowd pleaser and a true piece of cult cinema. Join us for this brilliant Friday night screening that will be followed by another equally entertaining cult gem with a reputation as big as Katy O'Brian's biceps. This mystery movie is really quite something, an eye popping cinematic extravaganza not to be missed.
