Featured Program:
THE NEW ENGLAND ANIMATION BASH COMPETITION SHOW
Features 15 new animated shorts from right here in our own backyard to halfway around the world. Personally selected from submissions gathered by the programmers from the Brattle and Coolidge Corner Theatres, these premiere shorts vary from cell animation to computer and stop motion animation, from humorous gags to thoughtful meditations. Viewers of this special competition program will vote for their favorite – which will receive the New England Animation Bash Audience Award to be announced on the final evening of the festival.

AVOID EYE CONTACT: THE BEST OF NYC INDEPENDENT ANIMATION
This over-the-top mix of hilarious animated shorts features over 17 internationally acclaimed films from New York City based animators. Program includes: Mike Overbeck’s sexy stream of consciousness piece “Tongues and Taxis”; the furniture porn stop motion romp “Roof Sex”; Aleksey Budovsky’s toe-tapping animated music video “Bathtime in Clerkenwell”; “Dirdy Birdy”, John Dilworth’s short about a bird who finds his amorous advances violently rejected by a frigid cat; Signe Baumane’s sinful expressions of female sexuality in “Five Fucking Fables”; Jessie Schmal’s Soviet inspired “Sub” (recently featured as an audience pleasing short at the Coolidge before “Triplets of Belleville”); as well as works by legendary animators George Griffin and Academy Award nominee Bill Plympton. www.squarefootagefilms.com

DOMINATOR
This futuristic heavy metal fable is based on the Manga comic strip written by Alan Grant (Judge Dredd) and illustrated by Tony Luke.The year is 2020 AD. CrowCut, an outstandingly endowed all-girl rock trio, discover the fabled ‘Lost Chord’ and accidentally summon Dominator — the Dead God of Rock ‘n’ Roll. Chaos and mayhem ensue, as the satanic master Lord Desecrator is chasing Dominator to retrieve the stolen Key To Hell, along with fellow demons Extricator, Decimator and Lady Violator. Featuring delightfully crude computer animation and more heavy metal clich’than you can shake an amp at, Dominator is an instant camp classic, and includes character voices by horror star Ingrid Pitt, rock singer Dani Filth (Cradle of Filth), and cult director Alex Cox. From PopTwist entertainment: www.poptwist.com

GOD HATES CARTOONS

REAL CARTOONS: Animated Documentaries
The animated documentary, a collision of two seemingly incompatible genres, takes the viewer on a trip to the mind’s eye of the artist, for a powerful interpretation of real events. This show of animated non-fiction shorts from around the world will features “Abductees”, illustrating the hypnotically recovered memories of people abducted by space aliens; “Bike Ride”, an entertaining free-jazz tale of a simple, heartbreaking journey; “It’s Like That”, by the Southern Ladies Animation Group production of Australia; “Survey”, a photographic tour of South Whales; a glimpse into the world of mind of autistic people with “A is for Autism”; and many more. Curated by Jessica Gidal.

RISD SPOTLIGHT
Many of the best and the brightest animators in New England lurk within the halls of The Rhode Island School of Art and Design. This program features recent award-winning works that feature a potato come to life, tales of beach bravado, a strange world of red things, love between a boy and his tomato, a handmade take on the Noah’s Ark story, a monstrous rap musical, and more. Filmmakers include Christina Spangler, David Zackin, Max Porter, Joey Kan, Paul Wei, Ben Richards, Jeremy Wab, Emily Dodge, Andy Kennedy, Mat Yapchian, Masako Miyazaki, and Sandra Gibson. Curated by Bryan Papciak.

and THE BEST OF SOUP2NUTS

First, join us for a question-and-answer panel with some of the studio’s animators, art directors, audio editors, and producers responsible for their hit programs. Then, Soup2Nuts showcases some of their greatest work, both old and new. Includes best-of segments from long-running series, shorts, and a number of never-before-aired pilots featuring such comedic talents as Jack Black, David Cross, Janeane Garofalo, and the unaired follow up to Dr. Katz, “Phone Jobs”.

WEIRD CARTOONS
These twisted early animations are guaranteed to surprise, delight and amaze, in a program that is not only a loopy primer on animation history, but an offbeat reflection of western civilization in the early 20th century. Features the world’s very first animator, Emile Cohl’s “Hasher’s Delirium”; Walt Disney’s early oddity “Alice’s Eggplant”; works from Russian animator Wladyslaw Starewicz, including the legendary acid-trip “The Devil’s Ball”; Max Fliescher’s classics “Betty Boop in Crazy Town” and “Cobweb Hotel”; Felix the Cat in “Non-Stop Fright”; Walter Lanz’ un-PC “Scrub Me Mamma With A Boogie Beat”; and many more. Curated by Johnny Legend.

There are a couple of films of Chlotrudis-interest being released on video and DVD this week. Most notably, BUBBA HO-TEP, Chlotrudis nominee for Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor, and Best Adapted Screenplay will be released on Tuesday. Adapting a story by Joe Lansdale, director Don Coscarelli imagines Elvis (that’s Presley, played by genre film superstar Bruce Campbell) as a geriatric waste-case who’s snapped out of his funk when a mummy in cowboy boots starts preying on souls at his Texas rest home. Surely one of the most anticipated DVD releases for many Chlotrudis members.

THE WEATHER UNDERGROUND was in contention in the Best Documentary nomination process last year, but not enough people saw it. Now is your chance. This film was nominated by that other Awards Organization, and looks back at ’60s radicals the Weatherman and their improbable, impassioned bid to take down the government. For those who like their indie films on the epic side, THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE RETURN OF THE KING, the lengthy conclusion to Peter Jackson’s adaptation of Tolkien’s trilogy, hits the stores on Tuesday. At least the first version does… I’m sure an extended edition will be released in a couple of months.

DVDs have done wonders for beloved television series, and here are a couple of interesting ones being released this week. “Northern Exposure: The Complete First Season” is sure to be a crowd please for many. That first season of gentle, quirky humour focusing on a doctor stuck in a tiny town in Alaska is one of my favorite pieces of television history. Going back a little farther, this Tuesday also sees the release of “The Jetsons: The Complete First Season.” I bet there are a lot of you out there who can sing the entire theme song. “Meet George Jetson…”

The Coolidge Corner Theatre in Brookline, MA honors internationally-acclaimed director Zhang Yimou this week. The director will be on hand Wednesday, May 26 and Thursday, May 27 following a month of special screenings, panels, and seminars on his work and filmmaking in China.

The Coolidge Corner Theatre launched a newly established annual award to honor a selected film artist whose work advances the spirit of original and challenging filmmaking. The first Coolidge Award, as it is branded, will be given to Zhang Yimou. The Coolidge Award presented to Zhang includes a specially commissioned inscribed memento and an unrestricted cash award of $10,000.

Born in 1951 in Xi’an, The People’s Republic of China, Zhang Yimou was first brought to the attention of worldwide audiences in 1987 with the release of his first feature, RED SORGHUM. The film, which starred rising actress Gong Li, won several international awards including the coveted Golden Bear Award at the Berlin International Film Festival. Zhang went on to make two subsequent films, JU DOU (1990) and RAISE THE RED LANTERN (1991 – #38 on the Chlotrudis 200 for 2000 list), also starring Gong Li and forming a trilogy which soared them both into an international spotlight.

The director made further headlines when JU DOU and RAISE THE RED LANTERN were banned from his homeland China, but enjoyed huge box office success in the U.S. and abroad. (RAISE THE RED LANTERN opened in the Boston area at the Coolidge Corner Theatre and was the theatre’s highest grossing film to date at the time). Zhang’s background as a graduate of the Beijing Film Academy in 1982, also secured him as a pivotal member of the significant film movement in China known as the “Fifth Generation.” Along with other graduates of the Academy, such as Chen Kaige and Tian Zhuangzhuang, work from Fifth Generation filmmakers broke away from both revolutionary realism and revolutionary romanticism. Instead, this new school of filmmaking ventured into more realistic and human portraits of the Chinese way of life, its people and history. With the releases of such films as THE STORY OF QI JIU (1992), TO LIVE (1994), NOT ONE LESS (1999), THE ROAD HOME (2001), and the most recent HERO (2003, due for U.S. theatrical release this summer by Miramax Films), Zhang continues to challenge restricted notions of Chinese culture and creates a stunning revisionist cinematic aesthetic.

The Coolidge Award Ceremony takes place on Wendesday, May 26 at 8:00 p.m. at the theatre. The centerpiece of the Coolidge Award events, this gala evening toasts Zhang Yimou, who joins us for a rare personal appearance. Included in the ceremony are excerpts from Zhang Yimou’s body of work, a live dance performance with choreographer Ling Chu, and an exhibition from Bow Sim Mark (one of the most respected and influential female martial arts teachers in the world and mother of HERO co-star Donnie Yen). Testimonials from filmmakers and scholars include film critic Charles Taylor and New York Film Festival program director Richard Pena. Don’t miss this landmark event — the presentation of the first Coolidge Award to Zhang Yimou, the world renowned and distinctive cinematic master.

Tickets are still available (and open to the public) at the Coolidge Box Office, 290 Harvard Street, Brookline, MA or by visiting www.coolidge.org. Admission is $25/general admission ($20 for Coolidge Members).

Hello everyone, and welcome to the new web-schedule for Boston independent films! Each week you will find the listings for independent film in the Boston area. In addition, we will announce the Chlotrudis Monday Night Movie of the Week here. Join Chlotrudis members as they see a new indie release each Monday Night. This week, join us at the Coolidge Corner Theatre, Monday, May 24, for the 7:45 p.m. show of Jim Jarmusch’s Coffee and Cigarettes. Seventeen years in the making, this film revolves around two of our favorite vices, coffee and cigarettes. And who can resist Cate Blanchett in a luscious dual role as herself and her cousin! And of course, Monday night is Chlotrudis night at the Coolidge. Show your membership card and get a discounted admission!

Coffee and Cigarettes

dir. Jim Jarmusch, w/Roberto Benigni, Steven Wright, Joie & Cinqu’ee, Steve Buscemi, Iggy Pop, Tom Waits, Alex Descas, Isaach de Bankol’Cate Blanchett, Meg White, Jack White, Alfred Molina, Steve Coogan, GZA, RZA, Bill Murray, Bill Rice, Taylor Mead, 1h36m
Mon, May 24

Legendary indie director Jim Jarmusch (GHOST DOG) brings together his favorite actors for a series of conversations over coffee and cigarettes. From smoky cafes to four star hotels, from coffee breaks to luncheon meetings, these people come together and discussing subjects as diverse as caffeine popsicles, Abbott and Costello, Elvis conspiracy theories, Paris in the twenties, and the use of nicotine as an insecticide. The series started in 1986, when the director brought together the wry comedian Steven Wright and Italian actor Roberto Benigni (then fairly unknown to American audiences, but about to break through as the co-star in Jarmusch’s DOWN BY LAW), for an improvised short of sipping, smoking and chatting. Over the years he continued to make shorts with his favorite actors and cultural icons, each film riffing on the same topics, but with a delightful new wrinkle. Steve Buscemi is a annoying waiter to Joie & Cinqu’ee (all of whom were then appearing in MYSTERY TRAIN); musicians Iggy Pop and Tom Waits meet in a bar, don’t seem to know each other very well, and have little to talk about; Bill Murray drinks coffee straight from the pot as the RZA and GZA (from rap group Wu-Tang Clan) drink tea and discuss healthy living; Cate Blanchett rips it up in a dual role as a movie star meeting her trashy doppelganger cousin; British actors Alfred Molina and Steve Coogan play themselves meeting for the first time, and hilariously vying for psychological dominance; and, in the most recent (and moving) installment, aging underground legends Bill Rice and Taylor Mead sip terrible vending machine coffee backstage at the opera and ruminate on the life they’ve left behind. The charm of COFFEE AND CIGARETTES is not only the eccentric characters, but also Jarmusch’s subtle humanity, using simple gestures, a couple of mundane props, and some conversation to show just how absorbing the obsessions, joys and addictions of life can be.

The big news this week is over at the Coolidge Corner Theatre. Zhang Yimou is coming to town! That’s right, the heralded Chinese director of such films as Ju Dou, Raise the Red Lantern, To Live, and the upcoming Hero, will be in town to accept the first annual Coolidge Award. Tickets are only $25, $20 for Coolidge members, and Zhang will be on hand on Wednesday night to accept this honor. Unfortunately, the screening of Hero on Thursday night is sold out.

For a change, that’s not the only new release I’ll be trying to catch this week. Strayed is the latest film directed and co-written by Andr”in’Alice & Martin, Wild Reeds). This film also happens to feature the latest work by cinematographer Agn’Godard, who Chlotrudis members got a chance to meet this past March at the 10th Annual Chlotrudis Awards Ceremony. Look for an e-mail from me later in the week if you’d like to come along.

The Brattle Theatre has a special treat this weekend: the Exclusive Engagement of The Big Animal, a charming Polish film co-written by Krzysztof Kieslowski. Sunday Eye Opener attendees got a chance to see this film last fall. Do consider checking it out!

And plenty of great films are still at the theatre: Super Size Me at the Coolidge, and held over for another week at the Kendall is Guy Maddin’s The Saddest Music in the World.

See you at the movies!

Chlotrudis Society for Independent Film, President

The sixth annual Provincetown International Film Festival, June 16-20 in Provincetown, will screen more than 50 adventurous, original, independent films. Director and writer Jim Jarmusch is the 2004 Filmmaker on the Edge: his cinematic achievements span 3 decades, from STRANGER THAN PARADISE, winner of the Camera d’Or at the 1984 Cannes Film Festival, to his upcoming release COFFEE AND CIGARETTES. The Festival features sneak previews, intimate gatherings with industry luminaries, parties galore, a Night at the Drive-in, Sing-A-Long WIZARD OF OZ, Youth and Diversity Film Program, and film workshops. Discounted Festival passes are on sale now at www.ptownfilmfest.org or by phone at 508.487.FILM

Several Chlotrudis members will be on hand to report on the festival, hit some parties, review some films, and hopefully spend some time on the beach. If you’re going to be in P-town for the festival, contact us and we’d love to say hello!

Many Chlotrudis members have a soft spot in their cinematic hearts for Canadian director Gary Burns. His third feature film, WAYDOWNTOWN, tied for the Society’s first Buried Treasure Award. Burns and the films co-star (another Chlotrudis fave) Don McKellar, were hosted by Chlotrudis in 2002 at a special preview screening of the film.

Now Burn’s latest feature is playing the Festival circuit. Boston-area Chlotrudis members were lucky enough to have the opportunity to see the film at the Independent Film Festival of Boston 2004 recently, and the five members who were at the screening I attended broke the current trend (the film wasn’t well-received in Canada) laughing uproariously and thoroughly enjoying A PROBLEM WITH FEAR.

To read more about Burns and his work, check out our “>Chlotrudis Spotlight, recently updated to include A PROBLEM WITH FEAR.

This one is a no-brainer for Chlotrudis members in the Boston area. Don’t miss the 2nd Annual Independent Film Festival of Boston running from April 29 – May 2, 2004. With films screening at the Brattle, Coolidge Corner and Somerville theatres, the festival will exhibit 47 films and will give the audience an opportunity to engage the films’ directors, casts, and crews during Q&A sessions following screenings. Attendees will also vote for the Audience Award for Best Narrative Feature, Documentary Feature, and Short Film. Ballots will be handed out prior to each screening and submitted while exiting the theater. All eligible films will also compete for awards that include: Best Feature Film, Best Documentary Film, and Best Short Film. A jury comprised of industry professionals will determine the winners.

Several Chlotrudis members have joined the fun by volunteering for the festival. Throughout the weekend, look for Michael Colford, Chris Kriofske, Hilary Nieukirk, and Beth Curran in the midst of the throngs of attendees, trying to keep them inline! Visit the Independent Film Festival of Boston website to see the film schedule and to purchase passes online. The line-up is really terrific, filled with incredible documentaries and Canadian films to name a few. Hope to see you there!
