Toward an LDS Cinema: A Priori assumptions
http://ldscinema.blogspot.com/2008/01/priori-assumptions.html
Toward an LDS Cinema. To challenge, develop, define, and encourage a cinema influenced and created by Latter-Day Saint doctrines. Thursday, January 3, 2008. I guess I should clarify a few things that I may have taken for granted. There are assumptions that I've made, which I assumed would not be debatable, but I realize I should also bring the following to the discussion:. However, as a general guideline, escapism does not lead to godliness. 7 That the LDS culture is in need of personal. Films from LDS f...

Toward an LDS Cinema: Why Latter-day Saints should be interested in Fight Club
http://ldscinema.blogspot.com/2008/06/why-latter-day-saints-should-be.html
Toward an LDS Cinema. To challenge, develop, define, and encourage a cinema influenced and created by Latter-Day Saint doctrines. Wednesday, June 11, 2008. Why Latter-day Saints should be interested in Fight Club. From the get-go, I'll admit that I haven't read the book from which Fight Club. I'll be referring to the film and not the novel. As Latter-day Saints, we might be hesitant to consider such a film as Fight Club. Becomes so fascinating to me. Violence. This is a hot topic; the film gives litt...

Toward an LDS Cinema: Making Cinema of the Book of Mormon

Toward an LDS Cinema. To challenge, develop, define, and encourage a cinema influenced and created by Latter-Day Saint doctrines. Friday, September 4, 2009. Making Cinema of the Book of Mormon. This leaves me asking why? Here are some possibilities:. Recreating any extensive or believable version of Book of Mormon culture/setting requires money. We know just enough about what these things may have looked like to have certain limited expectations, which leads me to my next point:. 3 Faking the Scriptures.

Toward an LDS Cinema. To challenge, develop, define, and encourage a cinema influenced and created by Latter-Day Saint doctrines. Wednesday, February 3, 2010. Offering a Decent Proposal in 24 Hours. We did at least 10 times better this year than last and, while we didn't win anything, we did have the only film in the competition to draw an "awww! For whatever that's worth. The most important thing is that we had a great time and saw some major improvement. You can go to YouTube. To watch it in HD. Critic...

Obscure One-Sheet: March 2014
http://knifeinthehead.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
Tuesday, March 25, 2014. Dirty Old New York aka Fun City, Part V. This is the conclusion. Of the Dirty Old New York Subway / aka Fun City. That I started working on nearly two years ago. I think I've got the obsession- at least in this format- out of my system. Barbara Streisand ventures out to Fun City in Irvin Kershner's Up the Sandbox. The video begins with a Rocky. There is some nudity in Part V. So it may be NSFW depending on where you work. Master playlist from Subway. Thru Fun City I. I, the Jury.

Obscure One-Sheet: Lolly-Madonna XXX (1972, Richard C. Sarafian)
http://knifeinthehead.blogspot.com/2015/01/lolly-madonna-xxx-1972-richard-c.html
Sunday, January 25, 2015. Lolly-Madonna XXX (1972, Richard C. Sarafian). Until the Warner Archive released Richard C. Sarafian's. In late 2014, the film was m.i.a. on home video for over 40 years. It's this sort of cinematic "rescue" that lovers of obscure films like this one cherish the Warner Archive for. We're still waiting for the likes of Last Summer. And China 9, Liberty 37. I'm not sure what kept Lolly-Madonna XXX. Aka The Lolly-Madonna War. Aka Fire in the Meadow. And Randy Quaid) away from their...

The Criterion Contraption: #114: My Man Godfrey
http://criterioncollection.blogspot.com/2012/12/114-my-man-godfrey.html
I'm going to watch every last DVD in the Criterion Collection. Saturday, December 01, 2012. 114: My Man Godfrey. 1936, directed by Gregory La Cava, screenplay by Morrie Ryskind and Eric Hatch from the novel by Eric Hatch. But somewhere around day three, provided the theater hadn't burned down, I'd send out for champagne and Gregory La Cava's. A film that was clearly designed to sparkle and shimmer. You know what you're getting right from the opening titles:. The settlement's sole inhabitant of note is no...

Toward an LDS Cinema: A Love Letter to the Latest Training

Toward an LDS Cinema. To challenge, develop, define, and encourage a cinema influenced and created by Latter-Day Saint doctrines. Wednesday, February 13, 2008. A Love Letter to the Latest Training. I gladly reemphasize, however, the phrase "up to now.". That there is no need for any camera movement because it is meant to be pure dialogue. Why try to hide it? Did someone at the communications department discover Ozu this year? Let us hope that it's true. Can it be any other way? Likewise, our church has n...

Toward an LDS Cinema: A few reasons why I think Jared Hess should be interested in Aki Kaurismäki's films
http://ldscinema.blogspot.com/2008/01/few-reasons-why-i-think-jared-hess.html
Toward an LDS Cinema. To challenge, develop, define, and encourage a cinema influenced and created by Latter-Day Saint doctrines. Saturday, January 26, 2008. A few reasons why I think Jared Hess should be interested in Aki Kaurismäki's films. Why single out Jared Hess? Because we're all aware that he has significant skill and a fresh take on humor that caused a cultural tidal wave across the country (and I've seen "vote for Pedro" shirts in Eastern Europe). But its more than that. I don't think so. I...
