The Thousands

Description:
Martin Scorsese once said that he just wanted to be an ordinary parish priest. Over the coming weeks, Chauvel, will screen four films that attest to the path he chose, relieving us of having to imagine a world without his craft. Scorsese tells stories of honour, of family, of violence and redemption. Beautifully shot, often with grit and machismo a plenty, Scorsese stands as one of the most influential and acclaimed directors in film history. Any lover of film should seize the opportunity to once more experience some of his best work on the big screen. – JP
