The room's lights turn off slowly like a fall in slow motion. A hidden screen emerges behind the majestic red curtains. Silence rules and a journey which transcends all borders into an infinite dimension of ideas begins. This is the world of cinema.
We've received your kind messages , asking for when will we write new film reviews. Unfortunately we will take a short break from this. We will undertake some reforms within the Red Curtain Cinema to make it sweeter and will be back before the end of Spring.
And as a last gift before we take this break, here is the new teaser for Harry Potter's spin-off Fantastic Beasts and where to find them
An outstanding video for the new Star Wars film. Very original and entertaining. 360 degrees experience, interactive and revealing about the new planets we will visit with the new Star Wars installment.
This is an amazing music video by Vladimir Mavounia-Kouka (known for a short-film "Dedans"). We wanted to share fresh and original videos. This is a pearl recommended by #RedCurtainCinema
Fresh fresh trailer from this film set during the Cold-War. The topic is catchy and the great Tom Hanks is on it. What are you waiting for? Check the trailer!
The new upcoming "The Jungle Book" is a partially- live-action film directed by Jon Favreau (Chef, Iron Man) . How fresh is it gonna be? You make up your mind by checking these first images!
Actress Jamie Lee Curtis recreating shot by shot Janet Leigh's Psycho scene. Two scream queens together in one picture. And guess what? They are also Mother and Daughter. This is part of the #HonorThyMother online campaign. How would you honor yours?
For our dear Londoners, Secret Cinema is holding an event after this terrible refugee crisis that Europe is facing. We think it is a great initiative to bring people together around an issue and also, giving the power to art to compel us as individuals. Let's try to understand these people instead of closing our eyes or discriminating them. Think what these refugees have been and are going through. Red Curtain Cinema is against indifference and discrimination.
This Secret Cinema event is a great opportunity to talk and think about this issue. You should take it.
Pretty cool huh? This is the new poster! Also good news for the UK people: the film will be released one day earlier before the rest of the world. Lucky people eh! Anyway, we are getting closer everyday to this far far away galaxy!
Cecil the lion was killed by a dumbass not that long ago. An animator who worked in "The Lion King" decided to pay a tribute to that beautiful animal in this video. Cool stuff!
Have you ever thought that music videos could be directed by important filmmakers? Sometimes we see great masterpieces and sometimes...well...
We invite you to taste nine visually stunning and good quality music videos.Which one is the best for you?
1)Dj Shadow-Six Days (Wong Kar Wai)
One of the greatest contemporary movie directors. He has big movies in his filmography (In the mood for love, 2046, My Blueberry nights) and showed a particular talent for mixing lively colors. Here's a taste of his talent.
2)Metallica-The Day that never comes (Thomas Vinterberg)
A reference in the Dogma film along with Lars Von Trier, his style is crude and aggressive (his first feature Festen is an evidence of it). To have it on your list.
3) Pearl Jam- Jeremy (Mark Pellington)
Mark Pellington lived golden years by the end of the 1990s. He directed successful films (Arlington Road) and music videos (NIN) but he has been long praised for this videoclip. A masterpiece.
4)The White Stripes- I Just don't know what to do with myself? (Sofia Coppola)
Sexy, simple and visually stunning. Sofia Coppola (The Virgin Suicides,Lost In Translation) had the clever idea for this awesome song to film Kate Moss dancing to it. The images speak for themselves.
5)The Killers-Here with me (Tim Burton)
Well well, the crazy and ambitious Tim Burton decided to shoot a music video. A song too classic for our taste but with a video that is noticeable for its colors, style and story. Please, don't cry.
6) Aerosmith-Janie's got a Gun (David Fincher)
Murder, darkness, mystery. These themes, so relevant in a Fincher film, is taken into account in this very good music video. Received many awards.
7) Nirvana- Heart-Shaped Box (Anton Corbijn)
Dutch photographer and film director (Control, A most wanted man) he achieved one of his greatest work with this video. Nirvana has never been so powerful.
8) Placebo- Protege-moi
French cover of their own song "Protect me (from what I want)", Placebo hired French-Argentine Gaspar Noé for directing this music video. The controversial director (Irreversible, Into the void) decided to create another controversy by filming....an orgy! This video is very representative of what he is: a crazy dude.
9) Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds- Jubilee Street
The best for the end: a masterpiece. Directed by John Hillcoat (The Road, The Proposition), Nick Cave asked him to come up with a dark script that goes along with the song's spirit. Bravo.
