LOVE & DEATH IN LONG ISLAND

LOVE & DEATH IN LONG ISLAND, (1996)
Giles De'Ath (John Hurt), a widower, stuffy British author, gets locked out of his house one day and opts to see an E.M. Forster adaptation at a local cinema to pass the time. He mistakenly goes into the wrong theater and, as he is about to leave the puerile American film, notices a young actor Ronnie Bostock (Jason Priestley) who immediately strikes his fancy. From there, we go on a journey with Giles as his obsession with the mediocre young actor goes from slight interest to a real obsession. This evolution ultimately brings him to Chesterton, Long Island, home of the actor. His miraculous encounter with the lad in some ways pushes the reserved Brit's emotional threshold over the top. One of the most touching movies of the wonderful John Hurt.

ZABRISKIE POINT

Zabriskie Point 1970 American film by Italian director Michelangelo Antonioni.
 widely noted at the time for its setting in the late 1960s counterculture of the United States. Some of the film's scenes were shot on location at Zabriskie Point in Death Valley.
This was the second of three English-language films Antonioni had been contracted to direct for producer Carlo Ponti and to be distributed by MGM. The other two films were Blowup (1966) and The Passenger (1975).
Zabriskie Point was an overwhelming commercial failure and panned by most critics upon release.
It has, however, achieved somewhat of a cult status and is noted for its cinematography, use of music and direction.
