Crimes and Misdemeanors at Revival House Perth
Experience Woody Allen's profound moral masterpiece that stands among his greatest achievements! This complex 1989 drama weaves together two parallel stories exploring the weight of conscience and the price of compromise. Martin Landau delivers a career-best performance as Judah Rosenthal, a successful ophthalmologist whose affair threatens to destroy his reputation, leading him to contemplate an unthinkable solution.
Meanwhile, documentary filmmaker Cliff Stern (Allen) struggles with his own ethical dilemmas while making a film about his pompous brother-in-law (Alan Alda) and pursuing his producer's assistant (Mia Farrow). As both men grapple with questions of morality, guilt, and the search for meaning, their stories illuminate the fundamental questions of how we live with our choices.
Allen's philosophical screenplay tackles weighty themes with intelligence and surprising darkness, supported by exceptional performances from Anjelica Huston, Sam Waterston, and Jerry Orbach. The film's exploration of whether the universe has moral order or operates by pure chance creates one of cinema's most thoughtful examinations of conscience and consequence.
Presented on authentic 35mm film for the true cinematic experience!
