    Presents SHEPARD & DARK A DOCUMENTARY BY TREVA WURMFELD 92 min., U.S., 2012 OFFICIAL SELECTION – 2012 TORONTO INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL OFFICIAL SELECTION – 2013 CANNES CLASSICS – CANNES FILM FESTIVAL WINNER BEST DOC FEATURE – 2012 WOODSTOCK FILM FESTIVAL To download hi-res images and video clips, please visit: http://www.musicboxfilms.com/shepard---dark-movies-71.php Publicity/Marketing Contact: Distribution Contact: Brian Andreotti Andrew Carlin 312-508-5361 312-508-5360 [email protected] [email protected] Rebecca Gordon 312-508-5362 [email protected] Press Contact: Lindsay Firestone 212-373-6131 [email protected] Marian Koltai-Levine 212-373-6130 [email protected] SUMMARY Sam Shepard and Johnny Dark met in Greenwich Village in the early 1960s and, despite leading very different lives, remained close friends ever since. Shepard became a Pulitzer Prize winning playwright (Buried Child) and an Academy Award-nominated actor (THE RIGHT STUFF), while Dark was a homebody who supported himself with odd jobs. Through the decades, they stayed bonded by family ties. Dark married an older woman named Scarlett and Shepard married her daughter. For years, the two couples lived together, until Shepard broke away for a relationship with Jessica Lange in 1983, leaving Johnny to help father his first son. Nevertheless, he and Dark continued writing to each other, amassing hundreds of letters. Director Treva Wurmfeld began filming the two friends in 2010 during a period of transition and reflection for Shepard. At the time, he had quietly ended his relationship with Lange and agreed to publish his correspondence with Dark. The task required them to meet and sift through years of their shared history, stirring memories both good and bad.

  • The Extent and Nature of Children's Real-Time Exposure to Alcohol Marketing Using Wearable Cameras and GPS Devices
    The extent and nature of children’s real-time exposure to alcohol marketing using wearable cameras and GPS devices By Timothy J. Chambers A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Otago New Zealand May 2018 ii Abstract Alcohol places substantial financial, physical, social and psychological burdens on society. There is mounting evidence that childhood exposure to alcohol marketing increases the likelihood children will begin drinking, and current drinkers will increase consumption. However, children’s exposure to alcohol marketing is typically measured using self-report data, television viewing data or street marketing audits, which are subject to bias and often do not provide quantifiable rates of daily exposure. This study uses an innovative methodology to quantify the extent and nature of children’s real-time exposure to alcohol marketing using wearable cameras and GPS devices. Children aged 11-13 years (n=167) were randomly selected from 16 schools in Wellington, New Zealand. The children wore wearable cameras that automatically captured images approximately every seven seconds and GPS devices that captured latitude and longitude coordinates every five seconds for a four-day period between June 2014 and July 2015. Content analysis of images (n = 700,000) was manually undertaken to assess children’s exposure to alcohol marketing. Image data were linked to GPS data to examine the spatial patterning of children’s exposure to alcohol marketing. On average, children were exposed to alcohol marketing 12.4 (95% CI 9.1, 17.1) times per 10 hours, excluding within supermarkets. Children were exposed at home (73%), on- licence alcohol outlets (9%), off-licence shop fronts (5%) and sporting venues (5%).
