FILM FORUM CORONADO: “My Tender and Affectionate Beast”

2022/12/21 @ 6:00 pm - 8:30 pm PST

Coronado Public Library, in partnership with the Coronado Island Film Festival, presents FILM FORUM CORONADO, taking place the first and third Wednesday of each month at 6pm in the library’s Winn Room. Film expert Ralph DeLauro provides a brief introduction to each film and leads a discussion afterwards, often including pointers about how lighting or camera angles contribute to a scene’s mood or propel the story.

December 21: My Tender and Affectionate Beast (1958, 102 min)

Rich in imagery and atmosphere, Emil Loteanu’s feature is an adapted version of Anton Chekov’s novel of innocence corrupted, The Shooting Party. A naïve but ambitious peasant girl is willingly led astray by the bored gentry in this subtle critique of an aristocracy steeped in decadence, lust, deceit, and corruption. This film is in Russian with English subtitles.
