"Harmonic Resistance of Bela Tarr" series at NWFF / Almodovar's "Volver" at Landmark Theatres

TARR

A couple significant (and totally diverse) cinema goings-on here at the end of Nov/early Dec:
Hungarian filmmaker Bela Tarr's rarely (ever) shown films "Damnation" and "Werckmeister Harmonies"
along with the massive undertaking that is "Satantango" are all screening as a series at Northwest Film
Forum running Dec. 1-17:

VOLVER

And on the near-complete other end of the cinema spectrum Pedro Almodovar's Cannes-award-winning film
"Volver" is *finally* playing in Seattle beginning Nov. 22 at Landmark's Egyptian Theatre:
