Antonioni’s Zabriskie Point at Cinéma du Parc this week

I’m a fan of Michelangelo Antonioni’s work, so I thought I would mention that Zabriskie Point is playing this week at Cinéma du Parc through Thursday (infos en français).

It’s a rare occasion to see his stunning visual work on the big screen. Check out the slow-motion explosion footage set to Pink Floyd in the video below and you’ll see what I mean.

Montreal has hockey fever!

Someone dressed up the sculpture in Square Victoria with a certain jersey today. A prophetic gesture, given the outcome tonight.
