    IMTA ALUM JOSEPH DAVID-JONES IN DETROIT IMTA Press Release August 3, 2017 Detroit opens nationwide Friday, August 4 “Whenever I’m not working I like to capitalize on that time by spending it with the people I love, traveling, working on music. Being able to just step back and enjoy all the things life has to offer.” – Joseph David-Jones A police raid in 1967 resulted in one of the largest citizen uprisings in United States' history, with riots that lasted five days, an event that brought into focus the systemic racism that was present during those times in urban Detroit. The telling of that period comes to the screen in the feature Detroit, directed by Oscar-winner Kathryn Bigelow. Detroit stars John Boyega, Kaitlyn Dever, Anthony Mackie, John Krasinski, and IMTA alum Joseph David-Jones. “Detroit tells the story of one of the most horrifying events that took place during the 1967 Rebellion in Detroit,” said David-Jones. “An incident which took place at the Algiers Motel changed the lives of everyone unfortunate enough to be involved in it. In the film, I play Morris, a Musician who winds up getting caught in all the chaos of the rebellious activity happening around him. Morris finds himself being affected in more ways than one by the events that took place on those tragic days.” David-Jones, IMTA NY10 Young Adult Actor of the Year, said that “working on Detroit has challenged me more than any other project so far in my career. I feel as an actor I should always be trying to improve upon my craft and never get comfortable or complacent in any role.

Emter COSTUME DESIGNER Gersha Phillips PRODUCTION DESIGNER Hannah Beachler COMPOSER Robert Glasper SYNOPSIS MILES AHEAD is a wildly entertaining and moving exploration of one of 20th century music’s creative geniuses, Miles Davis, featuring a career defining performance by Oscar nominee Don Cheadle in the title role. Working from a script he co-wrote with Steven Baigelman, Cheadle’s bravura directorial debut is not a conventional bio-pic but rather a unique, no-holds barred portrait of a singular artist in crisis. In the midst of a dazzling and prolific career at the forefront of modern jazz innovation, Miles Davis (Cheadle) virtually disappears from public view for a period of five years in the late 1970s. Alone and holed up in his home, he is beset by chronic pain from a deteriorating hip, his musical voice stifled and numbed by drugs and pain medications, his mind haunted by unsettling ghosts from the past.

  • Daniel Tafoya-Annotated Bibliograpy Final Draftpdf.Pdf
    Tafoya !1 Daniel Tafoya Professor Warner English 112B 7 May 2018 Comic Books and Graphic Novels I am a film buff, and anyone who knows me knows movies are my life. Some of my favorite films are coming-of-age films. Coming-of-age films draw audiences not only into young-adult issues, but the emotions young adults feel as they solve problems that shape their identity. Some issues coming-of-age films explore are bullying, death, drugs, gender, love, race, and sexuality. Today, coming-of-age films have evolved into superhero films, which are usually based on either comic books or graphic novels. I have chosen to study comic books, graphic novels, and movies based on comic books and graphic novels because they have become so influential in today’s youth culture that they are a force to reckon with. Comic books, graphic novels, and movies based on comic books and graphic novels provide young adults with positive role models; they also provide them with complex ideas about the world and their surroundings through scenarios that, on the surface, may seem fantastical and impossible, but have real-life lessons in them. Before I took this class, comic books and graphic novels did not interest me. However, a friend I grew up with put comic books and graphic novels into perspective for me. In high school, my friend was overweight, he was bullied, and he came from a broken home. To battle Tafoya !2 his insecurities and troubled home life, he turned to comic books and graphic novels. My friend says he is and always will be a nerd, but he is proud of that.
