"Basically, The Love Witch is about a woman who’s been driven crazy by the patriarchy ... the struggle this character has is to maintain a central personhood in the midst of only ever being looked at as an object and how she negotiates that. Sure, she’s a sociopath and she’s a narcissist but you can be driven to that by always having been looked at as an object right from your time as a little girl, where your core has been hollowed out because there is no self-esteem beyond physical appearance. That’s a frightening way to live." -Anna Biller

Written, produced, directed, edited, production designed, art directed, costumed and scored by Anna Biller, The Love Witch also manages to deconstruct the male gaze and reproduce a period of film with such accuracy that it is almost impossible to believe it was made in 2016.

Join Cinema Parabistro for our screening next Tuesday at The Chequers, Walthamstow at 1830. Ticket link in bio.

"I think movies used to be about an idealised world but now they’re almost about a world that’s under-glamourised, less glamorised than how life is! There are so many wonderful, realistic gritty films, but it’s weird how it has become an invisible style. TV commercials are using the same style, and it has almost become odd for audiences if filmmakers go outside of that. In the 1940s, the style was incredibly contrasty lighting, beautiful chiselled faces. That feels like naturalism to me—I don’t want to get more natural than that!" -Anna Biller
