Credit: Northwest Film Forum Shelf Life may be Paul Bartel’s forgotten film. An unreleased, made for theatre, bonkers black-comedy musical and Bartel’s final film before his death in 2000. Matchbox Cineclub resurrects this lost gem, a film very reminiscent of John Paizs Crime Wave that Matchbox screened at the Weird Weekend last year. Much like Paizs, Bartel most definitely follows suit as an unconventional, hyperbolic and a completely mesmerising director.
