My Lunch With Quentin Crisp

About This Movie

So, this one is a unique little slice of life. It’s just June Lang and Quentin Crisp having lunch, and it feels like you’re eavesdropping on a very private conversation. The atmosphere is intimate, almost confessional, with both of them exchanging stories and philosophies. There's a certain pacing to it that feels relaxed, almost languid, with no rush to get anywhere. What's distinctive is Crisp's personality – he's unapologetically himself, and that charisma seeps through the screen. The practical effects? Well, it’s all about the dialogue; there aren’t any flashy gimmicks here. Just a raw, unfiltered look at two creative minds sharing a moment together, which makes it feel all the more authentic and real.

This film has a certain niche appeal among collectors; it’s not widely available in every format, which adds to its allure. The scarcity of physical copies, especially in DVD or VHS, can make it a bit of a treasure hunt. Fans of indie cinema and documentary enthusiasts seem to appreciate its candid approach, reflecting a particular time and mindset. It's one of those pieces that definitely has a place in a well-rounded collection, especially for those who appreciate the art of conversation on screen.
