Description

The Barbican’s current ‘Step into the Dark’ season explores the darker side of film, immersing audiences into the worlds of surrealism, dystopia, and mystery. The climax is Seven Deadly Sins, a series of events in which various authorities on the visual arts, including Mike Leigh, the Chapman Brothers and Vivienne Westwood, have been invited to screen their favourite sin-related film. For sloth, director Richard Ayoade chose Mike Nichols’s 1967 classic dissection of the generation gap, The Graduate, a key influence on Ayoade’s directing debut Submarine, with its cocktail of humour and adolescent angst.
