Comp Expired: Two pairs of tickets to an exclusive 5 & a half hour screening of CARLOS on Sunday!

This comp was only running for a short time and has now ended. The winners will be informed shortly! Obsessed With Film have teamed up with Curzon Cinema's to offer two lucky OWF readers the chance to win an exclusive pair of tickets to a rare full length screening of 'Carlos' this Sunday followed by a Q&A with director Olivier Assayas. You don't want to miss out on this one. I actually attended the world premiere of the five and a half hour version in Cannes and I'm glad I stayed with the whole of the passion project. It was a fascinating movie, one that floats through different genre's and time periods - some of it works better than others but when the film is on, it's gripping. My favourite part was the first 1/3rd, which is basically a hostage thriller - or a deeper, more complex real life 'Bourne Identity'. It was exhilarating and full of political intrigue. Reminiscent of 'Munich' actually. ‰dgar Ramírez gives the performance of a lifetime as Carlos the Jackal, the convicted Venezuelan terrorist and an 'alternative Che Guevara' who probably lived a life that could have filled 10 feature films. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H3QkM7uyF10 At 5 hours 34 mins in length, the movie will be screened in 3 parts, each in its entirety, with an interval. The screening takes place on Sunday 24th October 1.00pm, Curzon Mayfair, that's in just two days time! As there truly is no time to lose on getting this comp up, all you need to do to win is one of these three things; A) LIKE us on Facebook B) Tweet this article or C) E-mail contest@obsessedwithfilm.com with the word 'Carlos' (if applying by email we need your full address and telephone number, or you won't win). Feel free to enter by all three formats to increase your chances of winning! Winners will be picked at 4.30pm TODAY and notified soon after, so you only have a few hours to enter! Don't delay, do it now! Please only apply if you are over 18, otherwise you won't get in! Ilich Ramirez Sanchez, otherwise known as Carlos the Jackal, is a central figure in the history of international terrorism in the 70s and 80s. At once a figure of the extreme left and an opportunistic mercenary in the pay of powerful Middle Eastern secret services, he formed his own organization based on the other side of the Iron Curtain, which was active during the final years of the Cold War. Masterfully directed by Assayas (Summer Hours), Carlos is the story of a revolutionary internationalist, both manipulator and manipulated, carried along by the currents of contemporary history and his own folly.

UK RELEASE DATE: 22nd October 2010
