THE CARS THAT ATE PARIS
Friday, September 15–Sunday, September 17
Event Navigation
(1974, DCP, 91m) dir Peter Weir w/Terry Camilleri, John Meillon, Bruce Spence. Paris, Australia. A bush town built on a dangerous curve that survives on salvaging the car wrecks of tourists. When deranged members of the community break off and launch attacks, it will be a miracle if anyone makes it out of Paris alive. A devastating takedown of Australia’s extreme car culture.
At Perisphere, Chris Ryba-Tures dissects the metaphors of mayhem and controlled car crashes, and Mattew Lambert writes about cars, greed, and destruction.
