Brit censors endure 10-hour Paint Drying movie epic
The British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) has determined that Charlie Lyne's 10-hour Paint Drying contains "no material likely to offend or harm", and has accordingly awarded it a "suitable for all" U certificate.

Speak for yourself. I shall hold out for the 3D version because it will be so much more immersive as an experience.
I'll wait a few years for the remake, which will doubtless feature glossier paint and a more modern style of wall, and yet somehow fail to capture the atmosphere of the original.

Our college put on the stage version of this twice in 1985.
The first time was about three weeks before our production of Cabaret and they put it on again about three weeks afterwards.
For Cabaret, the freshly undercoated back wall of the stage was painted with a 40 foot high mural of can-can girls legs in fishnets with various lewd and leering audience members featured. That show was a killer as I had to move the fully loaded lighting bars back ten feet to light the back wall instead of the curtain! Queue some very strong ropes to make a sling for them to slide along. Also had to dig out and bring the old 1960s era foot-lights up to code. That was a learning experience. And I had to renovate one of the five Junior 8 banks that had burned out some years earlier. Needed full lighting for that production. This was in the days before you had to be certified to do that kind of shit.

Bah. Blatant rip-off of some 1960ies experimental black and white art house movie from Finland whose name I can't remember. Haven't seen it myself, but I once overheard two film students discuss in it in the waiting line at the Sundance Festival five years ago.
Will watch this one, though. But I'll wait for the DVD release, I want to watch it in slow motion to take it all in.

What kind of DVD extras do we get?
"Making of..."
Torture of the artist as they go through the pain and anguish of selecting the right wall.
The artist at B&Q till buying paint, did they select Dulux or did they go for an inferior product like Crown or worse, that B&Q own brand cack?
Artist select correct grade roller and paint tray.
Finally the application to the wall itself.
Alternative endings?

Which begs the question as to how After Earth got released without them having to sit through it.
(If you haven't seen it, imagine what WWW would have been like if Will Smith had written it too and then selected a director based solely on how far up his own arse he was to really guarantee that sweep at the razzies.)
