Arrebato, screening May 19, 2022

Horror movie director José is adrift in a sea of doubt and drugs. As his belated second feature nears completion, his reclusive bubble is popped by two events: a sudden reappearance from an ex-girlfriend and a package from past acquaintance Pedro: a reel of Super-8 film, an audiotape, and a door key. From there, the boundaries of time, space, and sexuality are erased as José is once more sucked into Pedro’s vampiric orbit. Together, they attempt the ultimate hallucinogenic catharsis through a moebius strip of filming and being filmed.

Directed by: Jane Campion
Country: New Zealand, Australia, the United Kingdom, Canada, and the United States
Runtime: 136 Minutes
Date and Time: December 1, 2021 at 7:30pm
Location: Hotel X Cinema

Inside Out is excited to screen our first in-person feature length film, the Netflix Original Movie, The Power of the Dog at Hotel X on Wednesday, December 1 at 7:30pm. This is your chance to see one of Netflix’s most anticipated movies of the year on the big screen!

The year is 1925. The Burbank brothers are wealthy ranchers in Montana. At the Red Mill restaurant on their way to market, the brothers meet Rose, the widowed proprietress, and her impressionable son Peter. Phil behaves so cruelly he drives them both to tears, revelling in their hurt and rousing his fellow cowhands to laughter – all except his brother George, who comforts Rose then returns to marry her. As Phil swings between fury and cunning, his taunting of Rose takes an eerie form – he hovers at the edges of her vision, whistling a tune she can no longer play. His mockery of her son is more overt, amplified by the cheering of Phil’s cowhand disciples. Then Phil appears to take the boy under his wing. Is this latest gesture a softening that leaves Phil exposed, or a plot twisting further into menace?

Adapted from Thomas Savage’s cult novel of the same name, Jane Campion proves once again that she is one of today’s greatest filmmakers with Oscar worthy performances in this revisionist western.

Content advisory: homophobic themes, sexually suggestive scenes.
