'Bama Girl
Documentary Feature/Featured
Bama Girl follows a young black woman's quest to become the 2005 Homecoming Queen at the University of Alabama, running against not only 15 other co-eds, but a strictly segregated Greek system, internal black politics, and, most ominously, a secret all-white association called 'The Machine' that has been controlling campus politics at the University for most of the past century. This is a film about black and white, about the Old South and the New South, and about an unexpected microcosm of electoral politics that mirrors much of what is happening across our country today.

Blow-Up (1966)

Blow-up (1966)Michelangelo Antoninoi's Blow-Up is a fascinating hybrid of a film. An arthouse core wrapped in a thin  mainstream shell, it's easy to see how its nudity, sex and drug use would have been shocking for the time.

2012 John Cusack vs. War, Inc. John Cusack

Watch the trailer for Roland Emmerich's new heavy on the SFX, heavy on the big budget premise, light on the character development film 2012 and you'll probably be slightly shocked to see John Cusack.

Following in the footsteps of The Day After Tomorrow and 10,000 B.C., it's not difficult to imagine the amount of non-love 2012 will engender with many critics, while still doing profitable business here and around the world. Among all that is Cusack, a generally respected acto [...]
