really looking forward to introducing Kiyoshi Kurosawa's incomparable Cure (1997) at Close-Up in London tonight www.closeupfilmcentre.com/film_program...

CLOSE-UP | Cure

Kiyoshi Kurosawa’s breakthrough established him as one of the leaders of a new wave of Japanese horror, pushing the genre into uncharted realms of philosophical and existential exploration. Awash in hushed, hypnotic dread, Cure is a hallucinatory journey into the darkest recesses of the human mind.

This is, I think, not true: www.etymonline.com/word/revolut...

Revolution - Etymology, Origin & Meaning

Originating from late 14th-century Old French and Latin, "revolution" means the act or time of a celestial body's full circular rotation or movement.
