Tilda Swinton in Caraviggio

Caravaggio

1986, Rated R, 93 min. Directed by Derek Jarman. Starring Nigel Terry, Sean Bean, Tilda Swinton and Michael Gough.

If you’re Austin’s Hyperreal Film Club and you’re teaming up with Letterboxd to present Derek Jarman’s Caravaggio, a fictionalized portrait of the subversive artist (that, oooh, features Tilda Swinton’s first film performance), you’ll want to do it somewhere appropriate, somewhere redolent of subversion and the old-school creative life, right? Well – holy chiaroscuro, Artman! This nighttime screening takes place on the grounds of the Elisabet Ney Museum in Hyde Park, and includes free drinks (tyvm, Fairweather Cider), themed snacks, a photo booth, and live music. – Wayne Alan Brenner
