CELLULOID DREAMS THE MOVIE SHOW -- 5/29/25

THIS WEEK'S SHOW: Feline fraternizing and archival ACTION!

What started as a story about an unsanctioned mission to rescue 25 stray cats from the streets of Qatar (where cats equal the entire country's human population!) turned into a meditation on compassion, identity, and belonging. Filmmaker Mye Hoang takes us behind the scenes of her moving documentary 25 CATS FROM QATAR, sharing what it taught her — about animals, people, and the power of small acts of care and kindness.

From 2002: A chauffeur is sent to retrieve some items when his millionaire boss is hospitalized from an accident. But when he tries on his man's prized tuxedo, he discovers the suit contains some fantastic gadgets and abilities and finds himself caught up in international intrigue and espionage. THE TUXEDO is the movie and its star: actor and martial arts icon Jackie Chan-- now on screens in KARATE KID: LEGENDS-- who discusses his school training, singing and dancing for James Brown, being not Bruce Lee, the hole in his head, and how he fortuitously avoided being caught in the 9/11 attack.  

Then, "Screen Scene" movie reviews including ﻿LILO & STITCH; ﻿FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH [Apple TV+]; ﻿﻿KARATE KID: LEGENDS and ﻿THE WOMAN IN THE YARD [Universal Home Video].

THIS WEEK'S SHOW: We'll have a gay old time!

From its red carpet premiere at the Castro Theater in San Francisco in 2016, we look at the cast of LOOKING: THE MOVIE, which wrapped up the HBO series and brought closure to its gay relationships in the City by the Bay.On-hand were actors Jonathan Groff, Frankie J. Alvarez, Murray Bartlett, Daniel Franzese, Raul Castillo and Lauren Weedman.  

Following a series of gay teen suicides, a deeply closeted filmmaker turns the camera on himself to document his coming out and search for self-acceptance and community. COMING OUT is the documentary, and Alden Peters is the subject (and also the director).

THIS WEEK'S SHOW: From Frameline to the world!

A closeted undercover cop, assigned to arrest men cruising in shopping mall bathrooms, grapples with messy, conflicted feelings when he falls in love with a married man he's assigned to entrap. PLAINCLOTHES is an intense, deeply atmospheric drama that explores the grey zones of authority, identity and the cost of living a secret life. We sit down with its writer/ director Carmen Emmi.

HEIGHTENED SCRUTINY follows the courtroom battles of civil rights lawyer Chase Strangio as he fights to overturn Tennessee's ban on gender-affirming care for transgender youth while simultaneously confronting the media narratives influencing public perception of trans rights. Zooming in to discuss the film (just days ahead of the case's verdict) are director Sam Feder (DISCLOSURE) & producer Amy Scholder.

CELLULOID DREAMS THE MOVIE SHOW  --  7/3/25

THIS WEEK'S SHOW:  Tackling an incredible musical challenge.

From 2012:  BLADE RUNNER is not only one of the seminal films of science fiction cinema, but considered one of the best of all time. Its synthesizer score by Vangelis is also held in high regard, but, due to certain circumstances, there has never been an official, proper soundtrack available.

To address this, producer/composer Edgar Rothermich was commissioned to recreate the score (for which no written transcriptions exist) as faithfully as possible to mark the film's 30th year in 2012. The result: BLADE RUNNER 30TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION: MUSIC FROM THE MOTION PICTURE. Let's revisit our chat with Edgar Rothermich!

Then, "Screen Scene" movie reviews including ﻿﻿JURASSIC WORLD REBIRTH; 40 ACRES; ﻿F1: THE MOVIE; M3GAN 2.0; EVERYTHING'S GOING TO BE GREAT; ﻿MY MOM JAYNE [HBO Max]; ﻿ENIGMA [HBO Max]; ﻿DARK CITY [4K][Arrow Video]; ﻿SWORDFISH [4K][Arrow Video]; ﻿﻿LETHAL WEAPON [4K] [Warner Home Entertainment] and ﻿EEPHUS [Music Box Films].

CELLULOID DREAMS THE MOVIE SHOW --  7/10/25

THIS WEEK'S SHOW:  Two triple-threat debuts!

DON'T LET'S GO TO THE DOGS TONIGHT adapts Alexandra Fuller's memoir about her youth in Rhodesia, South Africa (now Zimbabwe) amidst the waning Bush War and the country's division following an election that shifted the balance of power forever.  We sit down with actor/writer/director Embeth Davidtz (MATILDA; SCHINDLER'S LIST) on her first time behind the camera, chronicling the shifting racial power dynamics in a country through the eyes of a child: eight-year-old Bobo.

A young small-town liberal arts junior professor learns to live through a past trauma with help from her best friend, her neighbor... and her cat. SORRY, BABY is a hilarious and heartbreaking tale of quietly powerful triumph, of seizing back your footing after the ground is yanked from under you, and zooming in to chat about it is actor/writer/first time director Eva Victor (BOYS GO TO JUPITER; BILLIONS).

Then, "Screen Scene" movie reviews including ﻿﻿﻿THE OLD GUARD 2; ﻿﻿DEAR MS.: A REVOLUTION IN PRINT; ﻿KILL THE JOCKEY; ﻿SOVEREIGN [also On Demand 7/11]; ﻿PUSH [Shudder]; ﻿BARRY LYNDON [4K][Criterion Collection]; ﻿YOU CAN COUNT ON ME [4K][Criterion Collection] and ALL WE IMAGINE AS LIGHT [Criterion Collection].
