Directed by Nicolas Roeg

The thrillingly innovative films of Nicolas Roeg are dazzling, chronology-scrambling puzzles that explode the rules of cinema and leave the viewer to piece together the shards. Distinguishing himself first as a cinematographer for directors such as François Truffaut and Roger Corman, Roeg made the leap to directing with a remarkable run of films that frequently courted controversy but have gone on to become cult classics, including the dreamlike Australian odyssey WALKABOUT and the shockingly transgressive BAD TIMING. Among the most radical and uncompromising British films of the era, these visceral, provocative works opened narrative cinema up to a brave new world of stylistic and psychological complexity.
