Now this is exciting: visionary Chilean filmmaker Alejandro Jodorowsky, responsible for surreal midnight movies such as El Topo and The Holy Mountain, has just premiered his new film The Dance of Reality at Cannes. Now 84 (!), Jodorowsky apparently received a standing ovation for the semi-autobiographical film, which is his first in 23 years and being hailed as a return to form. Watch the French trailer below -- it's chock full of the kind of weird, playful carny-esque imagery we've come to expect from him.
Some early reviews: Variety, The Hollywood Reporter,The Guardian, Indiewire. Fingers crossed the NZFF will get it!
