Lal Gece

This should really be a play. The only action (or inaction, perhaps I should say) is filmed in a straight forward manner in the bridal chamber of an old man and a child in backward Anatolia. They converse to an extent and the ending may be a surprise. Clearly it is an honest film that portrays aspects of this strange and distasteful tribal situation (uncivilised is hardly the word for it) and it would work well as a chamber piece in the theatre, but for the ordinary film-goer, such as me, I am afraid it is a bit of a non-event and rather boring in its 90 minutes progress (or lack of it). So, interesting certainly for anyone concerned with Turkey and its traditions and/or its folklore such as Scherezade but otherwise I guess I would advise you to give it a miss.
