Movie Night with "Drive My Car"
For this month's screening, The PhD Academy Movie Committee is happy to present Drive My Car , a 2021 Japanese drama-road film co-written and directed by Ryusuke Hamaguchi. It is primarily based on Haruki Murakami's short story of the same name from his 2014 collection "Men Without Women" while taking inspiration from other stories in it.
The movie had its world premiere at the 2021 Cannes Film Festival, where it competed for the Palme d'Or and won three awards, including Best Screenplay. The film received widespread critical acclaim, with many declaring it one of the best films of 2021. It earned four nominations at the 94th Academy Awards: Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Adapted Screenplay, while winning the Best International Feature Film.
The show will be at Lumiere Cinemas on 20th April at 19:30 hours. Tickets can be ordered here.
