Philip Seymour Hoffman films to be screened at Whirled Cinema
This spring Whirled Cinema will bring you: WHIRLED SEASONS
Each Whirled Season draws focus on a fresh point of interest. We will explore and research our chosen subject to bring you an exciting series of films ranging from old favourites by some of the masters of cinema, to a little something you never knew existed. There will be something in there for everyone.
Whirled Seasons kicks off on Monday28 April with a Hoffman Season: A celebration of the late Philip Seymour Hoffman’s early career between the years of 1991 to 2000.
Opening the first month of films will be Hoffman’s 1991 feature debut: ‘Triple Bogey On A Par Five Hole’, an independent black and white criminal comedy directed by Amos Poe. The film combines the cinematic styles of 40’s film noir with the gangster crime drama of early 90’s movies, which follows a mock-documentary maker studying a family of children living on a boat moored at a New York harbour, whose parents have been murdered on a golf course.
