Winner of the Palme D’Or (highest prize) at the Cannes Film Festival, and of the Oscar for Best Foreign Film, it features a magic soundtrack of samba and bossa nova.https://www.starandshadow.org.uk/on/film/583https://www.starandshadow.org.uk/on/film/591Not very well known outside of France, this is an absolute gem: magical musical from Jacques Demy (The Umbrellas of Cherbourg), with international star Catherine Deneuve in gorgeous princess dresses, and with golden donkeys, blue horses and a benevolent fairy. Adaptation of a 17th century tale about a princess fleeing from her father King. https://www.starandshadow.org.uk/on/film/591https://www.starandshadow.org.uk/on/gig/227Tempo Tempo and The Star & Shadow Cinema present: Ora Cogan sings a kind of music the could almost be termed Gothic Country, were it not for the unexpected turns that her chord progressions take just when you think it’s about to reach some easy-on-the-ear culmination. Her sound is dark, dreamy, mysterious, slow, the Country drawl found in the music rather than the accent, and the reverb provides the engulfing echo that holds all those qualities together, turning them into something an opaque atmosphere that smothers the vocals, which sound as more like a faint wail heard unintentionally behind a cloud of floating sound. £5https://www.starandshadow.org.uk/on/gig/227https://www.starandshadow.org.uk/on/gig/230John Butcher, leading british improv-jazz saxophonist, teams up with John Russell and Dom Lash (Gannets).
