  • Eva Aridjis Fuentes – Goodbye Horses: The Many Lives of Q Lazzarus (2025)

    2021-2030DocumentaryEva Aridjis FuentesUSA

    Goodbye Horses: The Many Lives of Q Lazzarus is a gift to biographical independent cinema and the women’s movement plus the cause for diversity and community. It’s truly a global music film on top of being a story of one person or many- her family, friends, her colleagues, the director plays a part- oh- It’s fresh in my mind but honestly it’s such a wild experience which spans the 20th and 21st centuries and there is so much music and pathos packed into it. I would simply say that each part or scene tells a unique story and then all fit together and form a sensible narrative that makes a compelling portrait of someone we just discovered.Read More »

  • Gregory J. Markopoulos – The Illiac Passion (1967)

    1961-1970ArthouseExperimentalGregory J. MarkopoulosUSA

    Quote:
    Prometheus, on an Odyssean journey, crosses the Brooklyn Bridge in search of the characters of his imagination. After meeting the Muse, he proceeds to the “forest.” There, under an apple tree, he communes with his selves, represented by celebrated personages from the New York “underground scene” who appear as modern correlatives to the figures of Greek mythology. The filmmaker, who narrates the situations with a translation of Aeschylus’ Prometheus Bound , finds the personalities of his characters to have a timeless universality.Read More »

  • David Lynch – Lost Highway (1997) (HD)

    USA1991-2000ArthouseDavid LynchThriller

    Quote:
    “We’ve met before, haven’t we?” A mesmerizing meditation on the mysterious nature of identity, Lost Highway, David Lynch’s seventh feature film, is one of the filmmaker’s most potent cinematic dreamscapes. Starring Patricia Arquette and Bill Pullman, the film expands the horizons of the medium, taking its audience on a journey through the unknown and the unknowable. As this postmodern noir detours into the realm of science fiction, it becomes apparent that the only certainty is uncertainty.Read More »

  • Valerie Kaye – John’s Not Mad (1989)

    1981-1990CultDocumentaryUnited KingdomValerie Kaye

    Quote:
    This is a SERIOUS BBC documentary about tourettes syndrome that went on to become a cult-classic comedy, though you do feel guilty about laughing afterwards. This film follows around 16 year old John Davidson who suffers from full blown tourettes. Having self diagnosed myself as having a mild case of tourettes in my pre adolescent days i can completely empathize with poor John. Tourettes is basically overwhelming obssessive compulsions that are either vulgar and or odd little sounds shrieks etc, as you will see. In John’s case its yelling profanities at the top of his lungs at the oddest and most humourously entertaining times, yelping like a dog, spitting in peoples faces and blurting out every irrational and downright rude thought that enters his mind. My personal favourite is when he yells “mom your a slut” in the grocery store in front of an old lady. I found this HYSTERICAL…but at the same time i felt his pain and almost felt as if i should give into the compulsions as John does. This is great as both a documentary and for a good laugh.Read More »
