This will be a popular film, so please sign up only if you really intend to come. Thanks.

Make it to the MLC Librairie Café for 6.30 to get a drink and have a chat, then we'll have a 5-minute introduction to the director and film, and start the film promptly at 6.50, with time afterwards to discuss. Please do try to be on time out of respect for others watching the film.

A dark-haired woman (Laura Elena Harring) is left amnesiac after a car crash. She wanders the streets of Los Angeles in a daze before taking refuge in an apartment. There she is discovered by Betty (Naomi Watts), a wholesome Midwestern blonde who has come to the City of Angels seeking fame as an actress. Together, the two attempt to solve the mystery of Rita's true identity. The story is set in a dream-like Los Angeles, spoilt neither by traffic jams nor smog.

This film will be shown in the original version. Although there is no cost to this screening, I will ask you to buy a 1 Franc raffle ticket in order to have the chance of taking the DVD home with you. It is also helpful to Francis, whose premises we are using, if you buy a drink.
