Lady Chatterley preceded by Special Afflictions August 17, 2007

"Every frame of the movie seems alive: with risk, with pleasure, with a sensuality that is both wild and intelligent."—A. O. Scott, New York Times

Winner of five César Awards (the French Oscars), Lady Chatterley is adapted from an early version of D. H. Lawrence’s once-scandalous novel. The wife of a wealthy, wheelchair-bound mine owner rediscovers the physical and spiritual passion of her life before marriage in an illicit relationship with a taciturn gamekeeper. (168 mins., 35mm)

Bonnie Camplin's Special Afflictions by Roy Harryhozen was inspired by Jack Cardiff’s 1974 film The Mutations and by the classic special effects work of Ray Harryhausen. (5 mins., 35mm)
