Offscreen Notes
Alejandro Jodorowsky
L’Université de Foulosophie has organised a major event/screening of the Mexican maestro of surreal and cult art, Alejandro Jodorowsky, whose works helped cement and typify the midnight movie. I can vividly remember going to one of the many Montreal repertory theatres in the 1970s to watch Holy Mountain, El Topo or Santa Sangre. Jodorowsky is in Montreal to take part in conferences covering his film and theatre work (Panic theatre) and screenings.
