video re: Resurrect Dead: The Mystery of the Toynbee Tiles

http://www.imdb.com/video/imdb/vi3742800409/


I attended the Salt Lake screening of "Resurrect Dead: The Mystery of the Toynbee Tiles," which is competing in the U.S. Documentary Competition at the Sundance Film Festival. It is an engrossing film and well-told as it documents the efforts of three young men who are investigating why bizarre street tiles are appearing all over the East Coast (and even in South America). The tiles have a mystifying message:

Toynbee Idea in Movie 2001.

Resurrect Dead on Planet Jupiter.


At the Q and A after the film, the director, Jon Foy appeared, as well as a pleasant surprise: two of the investigators.

Foy told the crowd that this was his first film, and it took him nearly six (SIX!) years to make, as he supported himself by being a house-cleaner. "I dropped out of film school and moved to Philadelphia to do this film," he said. "For five-and-a-half years everyone thought I was crazy."

One interesting moment came when a woman stood up and said that she had known nothing about this film when she decided to see it, and it was the first film she had seen at Sundance this year. She said he grew up a few doors down from one of the suspects investigated in the film, and the suspect and her father had been good friends. She had only one question for the filmmaker: "Isn't that weird?"

Yes, it is.

This video short depicts men experiencing in-the-field military strategies, displaying various psychological capacities one soldier possesses for creating psychological violence in the imagination of another soldier within the same armed unit. As witnessed by the video, one may observe fiery behavioral treatments and demises of soldiers all to demonstrate a psychological complex of gaming, in the face of which, imo, philosophical polemics render themselves moot with the exception of a range of confessed feelings.

Soundtrack for a Revolution | Trailer
REFER RI AREA23a movievents

Soundtrack for a Revolution tells the story of the American civil rights movement through its powerful music— the freedom songs protesters sang on picket lines, in mass meetings, in paddy wagons, and in jail cells as they fought for justice and equality.

The film features new performances of the freedom songs by top artists, including John Legend, Joss Stone, Wyclef Jean, and The Roots; riveting archival footage; and interviews with civil rights foot soldiers and leaders, including Congressman John Lewis, Harry Belafonte, Julian Bond, and Ambassador Andrew Young.

The freedom songs evolved from slave chants, from the labor movement, and especially from the black church. The music enabled blacks to sing words they could not say, and it was crucial in helping the protesters as they faced down brutal aggression with dignity and non-violence. The infectious energy of the songs swept people up and empowered them to fight for their rights. MORE.

welcome to los angeles...


I need to find some night footage like this of a car driving around LA, then I'll splice the two together so it looks like the plane drives off the airport and out into the LA night, then just superimpose over the planes nose... the hood of a green glowing '64 Chevy Malibu.
