Sion Sono's HIMIZU Opens In UK Cinemas This Friday!
Following up on our great Third Window news from yesterday, I just wanted to remind our UK readers that Sion Sono's Himizu opens on a limited number of screens tomorrow, 1st June.  The film has received positive reviews all around, including here. James Marsh listed it in his top ten Asian films of 2011 with this comment:
I've been a big fan of director Sono Sion for a long time, and his latest film continues his recent run of bleak, nihilistic explorations into the dark soul of humanity. Newcomer Sometani Shota stars as 14-year-old Sumida, whose abusive father and neglectful mother drive him forward on an ill-conceived mission to rid society of "evil doers", with classmate Nikaido Fumi in tow. Rewritten after the 11 March earthquake & tsunami, Sono incorporates the devastated landscape as the perfect backdrop for this murderous love story & coming-of-age tale.
UK readers can find a listing of screens featuring Himizu below. Remember, your support makes a huge difference with these small distributors. If you want to see more of these films, your money will prove to exhibitors that their screens are worth it.
