CELLULOID DREAMS THE MOVIE SHOW -- 9/29/22 -- THIS WEEK'S SHOW: 

More movie talk for your buck! 

BROS is the first major studio rom-com with a completely gay cast. Yes, it's a boy-meets-unlikely-boy-in-New-York-City story, but it also pushes deeper into the realities of relationships and expectations. We grab a seat with the main bros themselves, actor/writer Billy Eichner and actor Luke Macfarlane (veteran of Hallmark movies)! Universal Pictures

THE STORY OF FILM: A NEW GENERATION offers a snapshot of this moment of movie culture: how digital viewing options in the age of COVID affect how we relate to cinema. Director Mark Cousins  zooms in to share his passion and optimism in exploring the poetry of cinema in our current time. Music Box Films

After the collapse of Earth’s ecosystem, Vesper, a 13-year-old girl struggling to survive with her Father, must use her wits, strength and bio-hacking abilities to fight for the future. VESPER is also the title of this film and we're joined by its writer/directors Kristina Buožytė & Bruno Samper. IFC Films 

Following the accidental death of his wife, a man with a teenage daughter are held captive and he is conscripted to tear up the patio of a house scheduled to be demolished. But the motivation for the dig proves to be something sinister. We talk with director @K. Asher Levin about his hostage thriller DIG. Lionsgate

CELLULOID DREAMS THE MOVIE SHOW -- 4/25/24

THIS WEEK'S SHOW: It's all in our heads! 

A manic experimental filmmaker (played by the writer and director of the film Philip Jozef Brubaker, who actually undergoes psychosis onscreen) summons a manifestation of Stanley Kubrick into his apartment to confront the famous filmmaker on the negative depiction of mental illness in his filmography. The two directors go on a feverish journey through Kubrick's oeuvre, as the master director is confronted for his negative portrayal of the burden of insanity. Characters from DR. STRANGELOVE, THE SHINING and FULL METAL JACKET are re-evaluated as Brubaker demands the recalcitrant Kubrick admit to his bias against the mentally ill. And it's a documentary! Philip Józef Brubaker discusses his unmistakably-titled HOW TO EXPLAIN YOUR MENTAL ILLNESS TO STANLEY KUBRICK. 

Then, "Screen Scene" movie reviews including ﻿HARD MILES [also VOD]; THE MINISTRY OF UNGENTLEMANLY WARFARE; ABIGAIL; RIPLEY [Netflix] and HOW TO EXPLAIN YOUR MENTAL ILLNESS TO STANLEY KUBRICK.
