Death in Venice (TCM, 21.00) TCM is confusing because there seem to be many different TCMs, all with different schedules - but they all show Death in Venice at some point, so just keep this page handy for when it turns up on your version. The ubiquity of Death of Venice is surprising, since the film is quite controversial - a tale of paedophilia, no less, with Dirk Bogarde as a middle-aged composer who becomes obsessed with a teenage boy - but it’s tastefully done and in fact downright arty, a haunting drama utilising (a) the desolate sadness of Venice in the winter, (b) the music of Mahler, especially the Adagietto from Symphony No. 5 and (c) Bogarde’s tormented face as the grief-stricken hero, dying of
pestilence as he gazes from afar at the beautiful boy (who of course becomes symbolic of Beauty in the abstract). A melancholy masterpiece, though a vocal minority of viewers tend to find it insufferably precious. Maybe so - but it’s Art, innit? Made in 1971.
The Decoy Bride (Novacinema1, 22.00) “The only thing she didn’t plan for was falling in love,” chuckles the trailer - but why do people never plan on falling in love? Don’t they know you always fall in love when there’s some deception, or mistaken identity or other mix-up? Don’t they ever watch rom-coms? Here’s a rom-com with a rather unusual setting, a re-
The Decoy Bride
mote Scottish island full of remote Scottish people; Kelly Macdonald is the only unmarried woman on the island - and she’s pressed into service when a British author (David Tennant) wants to wed a Hollywood actress (Alice Eve) on the island, Kelly cast as a ‘decoy bride’ to distract the paparazzi. Alas, things get tricky when the fake wedding turns out to be real, forcing Kelly and David to seek a divorce while frantically dodging the press - but the only thing they didn’t plan for was ... well, you know. “This might be a good film for the family,” notes a Yank at the Internet Movie Database. “There are no swear words, no gratuitous sex or nudity, or implications of rampant immorality”. Yes, but what about the non-rampant kind? Made in 2011.
