Anne McGuire in Person. McGuire performs a roll reversal, rearranging the sci-fi thriller cut for cut in reverse order. Humorous, eye-opening, and outright hallucinatory. With Les LeVeque's short Strained Andromeda Strain, a dizzying work of condensation.
Julie Zando's The Apparent Trap plumbs the depths of twinning as a plot device, and mediaholic Joan Braderman offers a freewheeling critique of celebrity culture in Joan Sees Stars. With Diane Nerwen's short Spank.
Bob Paris, Les LeVeque, Rea Tajiri, and Christoph Girardet & Matthias Müller take on the master of suspense, delving into ornithology, mutating Bernard Herrmann's music, compressing Spellbound into a frantic tableau, and compiling forty films into a catalog of obsessions.
Midwestern bumpkin Patricia Arquette is marooned in L.A. along with soured artists Ron Vawter, Mary Woronov, and others in Bruce and Norman Yonemoto's deadpan funny Tinseltown satire. With Chip Lord's Movie Map and The Great Yiddish Love by Diane Nerwen.
Works by Leah Gilliam, Les LeVeque, Kevin and Jennifer McCoy, Keith Sanborn, Joe Sola, and Scott Stark dis- and reassemble cinematic passages from all sorts of sources, from Birth of a Nation to Evil Dead II, coaxing out the unexpected.
French artist Brice Dellsperger's dizzily ambitious work reclaims a 1975 romance, replacing Romy Schneider and every other character with Jean-Luc Verna-a performance artist of slippery gender-to explore drag as the masquerade of everyday life.
