Part of Films About Filmmaking, this month on Curzon12. An homage to the classic Italian giallos of the period, Peter Strickland's (In Fabric) masterful pastiche Berberian Sound Studio is another triumph. Set in 1976, Toby Jones plays a documentary sound engineer who finds himself employed by a notorious low-budget Italian horror studio. Uneasy in his new environment and surrounded by a world he finds alien, he throws himself into his work, failing to notice how life is slowly beginning to imitate art. ★★★★★ "Its vision, ingenuity and sheer gobsmacking audacity have blown me ten feet out of my seat" - Robbie Collin, The Telegraph ★★★★★ "Utterly distinctive and all but unclassifiable" - Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian
