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

THIS WEEK'S SHOW:  California stories (mostly).

Muriel and her husband Lee (newly returned from the Korean War) are beginning a new life in San Diego, which is upended by the arrival of Lee's charismatic younger brother, Julius. Lee is keen for the three of them to build a new life together, but Julius leaves for Las Vegas instead, where he meets Henry, a male co-worker. While the two men begin a secret romantic relationship, Muriel embarks on a secret life of her own. The film is ON SWIFT HORSES and we're joined by director Daniel Minahan.

80-year-old African American chaplain Betty Clark and white Jewish physician Jessica Zitter are on-staff at an Oakland, CA hospital's Palliative Care Unit-- professions that rarely intersect. THE CHAPLAIN AND THE DOCTOR documents their work as they endeavor to bring curiosity, connection and compassion to a broken medical culture-- and one that recognizes the diverse backgrounds of their patients. Jessica Zitter is also the film's director, and we sit down with both women ahead of its screening at the 68th San Francisco International Film Festival.

THE LEGEND OF OCHI centers on a teenage girl from the remote island of Carpathia who befriends a mysterious forest creature she encounters in the woods-- a species she has been raised to fear.

Writer/ director Isaiah Saxon talks about his feature debut: a tale of love, longing, and acceptance. 

From 2007:  Katharine Hepburn was, by many accounts, brilliant, fearless, independent, frustrating, insufferable and one of cinema's greatest actors. Author and cultural historian William J.
