Bill Morrison, let me come in

Game Dev Story ·

2021/05/05

Bill Morrison is a director devoted to the lost films. His long-running filmography explores what often gets left behind. It’s a filmography of revival and preservation, with painstaking aesthetic attention paid to recovering films. This is a story about more than films. It’s about filling the gaps in our cinematic history. It’s about the intrinsic beauty of degrading nitrate film stocks and how that can all come to life, given just the right musical backing.Morrison’s latest film, let me come in,

SXSW 2021: Alien on Stage

Game Dev Story ·

2021/03/19

Alien on Stage is the best kind of success story. It is about a troop of bus drivers moonlighting as amateur entertainers who want to put on a stage production of Ridley Scott’s Alien (1979). The documentary is the story of how their workmanlike production began on a small stage in Dorset before maximizing the show’s notoriety online, and landing a prime spot on stage in London’s West End. It is the story of workers creating the most amazing fan art. It was all I could do to write a glowing review

Recovery and representation are the topics of the day, in our audio interview with Blackwater director Boise Esquerra. A series of short films, the first of which is showing at Slamdance, Blackwater is the story of a country musician who has bottomed out and returned to her reservation, finding that addiction does not discriminate. We swap stories about our own personal journeys of recovery and what it means to put those stories on screen. There's also a great conversation about de-stereotyping

Fantasia 2020: Survival Skills

Game Dev Story ·

2020/10/01

1980s training videos have carved out a peculiar niche on the internet. Searching for a purpose for his new picture, director Quinn Armstrong utilized these training videos as a lens to tell a different kind of police story. Given recent events, the context of his film has landed differently than planned at inception. Between a wide-ranging change in the discourse on police and the shifting realities of COVID, there has never been a stranger time to shop such a film to the market. We’re proud to

Cuties Cast: An Open Conversation

Game Dev Story ·

2020/09/26

Maïmouna Doucouré’s feature film debut has provoked a firestorm of controversy. The story of Cuties (Mignonnes) began favorably. The French-Senegalese director picked up the Directing Award at Sundance, landing a deal with Netflix for an amplified international release, and enjoyed a broadly acclaimed release in her home of France. Then the Netflix marketing arm spun the controversy out of proportion — they have since recorded record-high cancelation figures and the film has become a hotbed for

The Penny Black is an intriguing new documentary fresh out of the Slamdance circuit. A man has left a stamp collection from a mysterious, potentially dangerous neighbor. The collection stays with him for years as his neighbor fades out of existence at the apartment complex. In the meantime, director Joe Saunders has filmed the story of the multi-million dollar bag of stamps, tracing the new ownership of his friend, a son of a conman who seems to be constantly wrestling with an urge to sell the

Jennifer Reeder, Knives and Skin

Game Dev Story ·

2019/12/19

Jennifer Reeder's Knives and Skin is a great victory for compassion. The director weaponizes empathy as though it were her blade and directs the hell out of this new mystery picture. What truly elevates her voice is a great sense of accessible feminism. Knives and Skin is feminism for everyone. It invites all of us to engage fully with its principles as such and succeeds fully in voicing its feminine characters. The feeling is that Jennifer knows what it is like. She works predominantly with
