Lauded as the “Best Film of the 90s” in a Village Voice Film Poll of 50+ critics, SAFE (1995) has finally gotten a much-overdue 4k restoration on its 30th anniversary. Celebrate 30 years of SAFE with SPC by booking this gem of indie cinema - and the first collaboration between Todd Haynes and Julianne Moore!SAFE is not only the scariest film of 1995 (according to Wes Craven…), but increasingly relevant today – read the New Yorker’s 2020 re-examination of the film and Letterbox’d journal from earlier this year.
Julianne Moore gives an astonishing performance as Carol White, a Los Angeles housewife whose affluent environment turns against her in the form of an inexplicable illness. What begins as sudden allergic reactions to everyday chemicals, fragrances and fumes turns increasingly violent, transforming the laminated safety of Carol's existence into a terror of everyday life. When she is diagnosed with an immunity disorder called "Twentieth Century Disease," and sets off to New Mexico in search of treatment, Carol's journey turns inward. And, in the crisis of identity that results, SAFE reveals the ways in which disease infests our basic sense of who we are.
