Known for her amazing performances and sassy energy, she has made a point of eschewing straightforward pretty-girl parts in favor of more devilish damsels; as a result, she's built an eclectic resume that runs the gamut from Shakespearean tragedy to modern-day mysticism and erotica. The British actress Won 1 Oscar and has another 90 wins & 157 nominations so far.
We all know about her history as an actress but did you know that she is also a producer? Currently filming a TV series called "Mare of Easttown" expected to be released in 2021, and also going through pre-production of the feature film "Lee".

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KATE WINSLET!

The American Latino Experience: 20 Essential Films Since 2000. A list by The NY Times.

Because of National Hispanic Heritage Month, The NY Times put together a list of must-watch films centered on American Latino protagonists.

"Hollywood still doesn’t get it. Latinos are not a monolith. The context, details and nuances that go into telling the story of a family in Mexico City won’t be the same for the story of a family in Los Angeles, which would in turn differ for one in Miami. American-born or -raised Latinos have unique life experiences."

To access the full list: https://www.nytimes.com/article/latino-movies.html

After Quentin Tarantino met Uma Thurman on the set of Pulp Fiction, he knew he wanted to work with her again. When it comes to crafting character development and character arcs, the best work comes from collaboration. Tarantino and Uma worked together to develop "The Bride" and a credit at the end of Kill Bill states: “Based on the character of ‘The Bride’ created by Q & U.”

This video is Tarantino himself talking about when he first introduced the idea of the character to Uma. (video via Creative Principles)

Everyone had to adapt to the COVID19 pandemic world and DFA had to go online. But to make things better, we decided that our new online students should have their own equipment to practice what our great professors will teach them in class.

So all of our new students that will begin the new online Associate Degree Program (starting in January) will have a Blackmagic 6K and some other film equipment sent to the comfort of their homes. Isn't that amazing?

Known for his amazing performances over the years he proved himself as one of the greatest actors of all time. From comedies such as Ghostbusters by Ivan Reitman, Tootsie by Sydney Pollack, What about Bob by Frank Oz, Groundhog Day by Harold Ramis, Rushmore, The Grand Budapest Hotel and The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou by Wes Anderson to beautiful dramas such as Lost in Translation by Sofia Coppola and Broken Flowers by Jim Jarmusch. The list only grows.

Even though he accidentally broke Robert De Niro's nose during the filming of Mad Dog and Glory, we still love him!

HAPPY 70TH BIRTHDAY BILL MURRAY!

09/07/2020

Tilda Swinton has praised the Berlin Film Festival for its decision to adopt gender-neutral performance awards, during a masterclass session at the Venice Film Festival. Swinton already played several non-gendered or queer characters, such as her portrayal of Orlando in Sally Potter’s 1992 film, as well as non-binary The Ancient One in “Doctor Strange.”

“Humans are so interested in division and compartmentalizing ourselves. As we’re really getting to understand now, this is not the way to go — dividing people up and prescribing a path for them, whether gender or race or class,” said Swinton, who seemed somewhat exasperated to be commenting on the matter.

“The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of sex.” 100 years ago the 19th amendment gave women the permission to vote in US. Although this was a huge step, millions of women around the country were still prevented from voting in 1920 because of the color of their skin or ethnicity. With that in mind, let’s vote consciously this year and keep moving forward, creating equality among all of us humans. . . . . . . . . . . . . #women #100years #19thamendment #womenrights #feminism #feminist #electionday #election2020 #1920 #womenempowerment #womenvoters #womenrising #womenrightsarehumanrights

I love how the page supports so many student voices in the industry. As a fellow filmmaker I always look for films that both educate and inspire me. Because of that, I wanted to share with you all this new documentary I came across on Netflix called “Kiss the Ground.” The directors, Josh and Rebecca Tickell, are former Sundance Audience Award Winners with an extensive background in environmental activism and film making. From the trailer, the cinematography is a sight to be seen and the story-line is also one I haven’t seen before, so I’m actually super excited for it. It comes out next week on Sept 22 and I found out they’re hosting a global watch party/Q&A day of!
I love finding pages that are passionate about film and converse about the benefits and impact a film can have. To further this conversation about impactful films, I wanted to discuss an upcoming Netflix documentary I read about in People magazine. “Kiss the Ground” is the latest movie from activists and directors Josh and Rebecca Tickell that presents a motivational and uplifting message about reversing the effects of climate change through regenerative agriculture. This film has Woody Harrelson as the narrator and features many celebrity activists such as Patricia Arquette and Ian Somerhalder! I am so excited for this film because I really think this film’s uplifting tone will impact so many people! The film releases on September 22nd and there will be a virtual watch party and Q&A! I would love to know what you think after seeing the trailer!
I love that your page has become a hub of entertainment and training through the internet. I've missed being able to watch films, but I've been able to watch a few independent films and I'd love to recommend one for your program. I was able to see a premiere screening of the film Chief Zabu, a film 30 years in the making. Though being set in the 80's, the film's comedic timing and hilarious take on business figures in the world is a well shot masterpiece of satire in the highest degree. With Ben Sydney (Allen Garfield) and Sammy Brooks (Zack Norman) leading the way and stealing the show as the one of the funniest duos on film, this blast from the past will fill you with nostalgia while also blowing you away with its relevance. It's set to be on VOD platforms by August 8th, and I can't wait to watch it again! Let me know what you think when you're able to see it!

‘#Fear does not stop death, it stops life’ - Vi Keeland. In these times of #Uncertainty, collective and individual ‘Fear’ rises. How does it consume our mind? Which environmental factors engineer its ever-encroaching presence in our being? #PHOBOS (FEAR in Greek), a fascinating #shortfilm by Alex Proyas (#TheCrow - #DarkCity - I, ROBOT - KNOWING) is more pertinent than ever in our current, global stranglehold. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0zCSYgTDjgA #filmmaking #humancondition #humanbehaviour #humanbeing #scifi #IndieFilm #fears #psychologie #film #psychology #subconscious
I love that as a student I can share my passion for film with other students on this page. I have recently been trying to support independent filmmakers and so I wanted to research where I could watch independent films unlike those found on the mainstream streaming services. I stumbled across a platform called Film Festival Flix, which is a streaming service that houses acclaimed independent films, curated channels for all audiences as well as virtual film festivals. A great virtual film festival that is being showcased now on the platform is the Ashland Independent Film Festival, there are over 100 films to watch over the course of the festival. I have been enjoying my first virtual film festival and I knew I had to share with this page. Let me know if you join me in virtually attending the Ashland Film Festival and if you have any recommendations on Film festival Flix.
Wow, what a cool idea for a school! As a film lover I really appreciate how there are places like these to help other aspiring filmmakers follow their dream. To contribute to the page, I would like to suggest checking out Film Festival Flix. It’s a great website that offers a wide variety of films/documentaries on both its channels and collections for you to explore. Recently, on its Kino Lobrer channel I watched the movie “Russian Ark” by Alexander Sokurov which employed a one-take story around the historic Russian State Hermitage Museum. Channels like these also offer one-week free trial for you all to explore for more films. Personally, I love this website and think you guys will enjoy it too!
I love this film program, as a film lover living in the city it's exciting to see all the great content that is put up this page. I love the way this city celebrates cinema the way it should be celebrated, and I can't stress enough how excited I am to see the new film Empathy, Inc. this Friday at the Film Noir Cinema in Greenpoint. This is my favorite little theater to go and get immersed in film and lose track any troubles I'm going through. I was looking at the Rotten Tomato reviews of this sci-fi thriller, and last time I checked it had a whopping 88%. It seems to have a Black Mirror vibe, and it's a film noir so how can I not see it at the Film Noir Cinema. The screening starts at 10 pm, so I'm preparing myself for a late night spooky experience that is sure to get me into the Halloween season. Definitely worth looking into!
Greetings, Fellow Filmmakers! Just when you thought our beloved genre had been stretched to its limits, how about a film described as “Exactly the Pro-Art, Anti-Biz Zombie Horror Comedy You Didn't Know You Needed”? That film is FINAL CUTZ: https://www.finalcutzthemovie.com/ FINAL CUTZ will have its world premiere next week at The Workers Unite Film Festival:https://www.workersunitefilmfestival.org/festival-calendar-2019 Where: Cinema Village, 22 E. 12th St., Greenwich Village When: Saturday, May 10, 9:45pm & Thursday, May 16, 10:30pm Contest: Saturday night features a Contest with prizes awarded to the Best Anti-Corporate Zombie Costumes – so bring out your living dead! When the corporate overlords announced the closure of the Santa Fe University of Art andDesign, the remaining students and faculty gathered together to use cinema as a form of collective catharsis. In the subversive social satire FINAL CUTZ, the Chairman of the Film School rallies his beautifully diverse student body to fight off both imminent closure and a zombie invasion. We look forward to seeing you at the screamings!
Over the weekend, I had the pleasure of seeing a film titled 'Saint Judy', which was awe-inspiring. The producers of this film really struck gold, because this true story couldn't have written itself at a more relevant time. I really hope that this film is seen by as many people as possible, as it has a message that has more of an impact than any other film out right now!
Thank you for sponsoring the 9th Annual Queens World Film Festival.
If you’re into spiritual thriller type movies I’d for sure check out the trailer for “Darkness Visible.” From the trailer it looks like it’s sort of a murder mystery with a lot of suspense. Basically, it looks like the main character has to go to India because he finds out his mom is in a coma. Upon arriving, murders start to spread around the city of India that he’s in. It looks awesome to me, you can check out the trailer here. It’s playing at the Jersey Gardens 20 theater next Friday.
