Acting Out: 25 Years of Queer Film & Community in Hamburg

A documentary about the International Queer Film Festival Hamburg that celebrated its 25th anniversary in 2014. The filmmakers have filmed, interviewed, gleaned the archives, watched hours of footage and edited reams of material into a small masterpiece. With its gorgeous shots and sublime soundtrack, the documentary entertainingly brings across both the unique atmosphere and 25-year history, and above all, illuminates the complex mesh that both forms and carries the festival. On another note, the film tries to detect the ways a queer film festival like this has functioned as a platform for unheard voices - and continues to do so in the present. For some people, its sole existence has been a life changing momentum.

24×36

A documentary exploring the birth, death and resurrection of illustrated movie poster art. Through interviews with a number of key art personalities from the 70s and 80s, as well as many modern, alternative poster artists, “Twenty-Four by Thirty-Six” aims to answer the question: What happened to the illustrated movie poster? Where did it disappear to, and why? In the mid 2000s, filling the void left behind by Hollywood’s abandonment of illustrated movie posters, independent artists and galleries began selling limited edition, screenprinted posters — a movement that has quickly exploded into a booming industry with prints selling out online in seconds, inspiring Hollywood studios to take notice of illustration in movie posters once more.

This magnificent documentary captures the essence of one of the most influential and innovative directors of the last century: Alfred Hitchcock.We are in good company as the work of Mr. Hitchcock is examined by the likes of Larry Cohen, Keith Gordon, Joe Dante, Carl Franklin, Ernest Dickerson, Sean Cunningham, and the rest of notables that speak about how they regard the master of suspense himself in a pedestal because he broke ground with the films he left behind.The 24 minutes of this documentary flies by, practically, and one would like to have more and more. Alfred Hitchcock's legacy is huge and "Hitchcocked" only puts a dent in his larger than life presence. His influence can be traced to many directors, among them, Brian DePalma and Quentin Tarantino, as the most influenced by the man, himself. Jeffrey Schwartz and his team deserve praise in what they have accomplished in such a limited time. The documentary is a "must see" by all film lovers, and especially fans of Alfred Hitchcock.
