Cannot say enough good things about La Chimera - I saw it in a London Curzon on a lazy Saturday afternoon and I haven’t stopped thinking about it. Dreamy and charming but never over sentimental. A gem of a film.

Alice Rohrwacher talks about her creative process when making a film. #LaChimera

Another winner from #Punchdrunk - as dream-like, absorbing, and spooky as usual but an interestingly intimate follow up from Burnt City. Saw it in preview and might have to go back. #violasroom #followthelight

This weekend I saw two plays. One of them was terrible in so many ways I wouldn’t know where to start. Fortunately the other was @RedPitchPlay at @sohoplacelondon and I really can’t recommend it highly enough. Everyone involved is hugely talented.

They’re baaaaaack… #Punchdrunk #followthelight
