Oscar-nominated documentary filmmaker Kirby Dick, a Tucson native, will be here to present his latest film,The Bleeding Edge (see page 13), a documentary that explores the mostly unknown dangers of America’s technologically advanced health care devices. Kirby will answer your questions after the 2pm screening on Saturday, August 11. Alex Cox (Repo Man, Sid and Nancy, Walker) will be presenting four of his favorite Spaghetti Westerns (see pages 23-24) every Sunday in August. Alex literally wrote the book on Spaghetti Westerns and is currently working on a second. While our tribute to Ingmar Bergman continues through August, we are busy working on curating the 9th annual Loft Film Fest. Save the dates: November 8-15. I firmly believe this year’s fest will be the best yet and will offer you some dazzling films to experience. And finally a shout out to everyone who created, supported and attended the 12th annual Loft Kids Fest in July. It’s one of our favorite events at The Loft Cinema!

What I love about the film is that what starts out with a look at a band changes into a look at what it takes to be in a band and how the relationships outside of the band are forced to change because of the dynamics of the band. What’s even better is that as the film goes on it morphs again and becomes Kengo's quest to find himself...or maybe that's what it was about all along. Either way, or anyway it's amazing. It’s so good I can't wait to see it again.” – Steve Kopian, Unseen Film. “The members of Peelander-Z unmask themselves for revealing new doc MAD TIGER..

  • Cast Bios Lacey Chabert
    ‘FAMILY FOR CHRISTMAS’ CAST BIOS LACEY CHABERT (Hannah Dunbar/Hannah Matthews) – Lacey Chabert is regarded as one of the best young actresses of her generation. From an early age, she was exposed to dramatic and musical performances in and around her hometown of Purvis, Mississippi. Chabert received her first break in a cough syrup commercial before successfully auditioning for the Broadway production of Les Miserables, in which she played young Cosette for two years. In 1998, she made her feature film debut as Penny Robinson in “Lost in Space.” Chabert’s resume is as extensive as it is versatile. Consistently delivering memorable performances, she has become one of Hollywood’s most sought-after talents. Chabert is best known for her role as Claudia on the Golden Globe Award®-winning FOX television series “Party of Five,” and can currently be seen on ABC Family’s “Baby Daddy.” She has appeared on “All My Children” as well as in several made-for-TV movies, including “Gypsy” starring Bette Midler, “A Little Piece of Heaven” with Cloris Leachman, Lifetime’s “What If God Were The Sun?” starring opposite Gena Rowlands, and the Hallmark Channel Original Movies “All of My Heart” with Edward Asner, “Matchmaker Santa” opposite Florence Henderson, and “A Royal Christmas” alongside Jane Seymour and John Ratzenberger. Chabert also starred in the Hallmark Movies & Mysteries Original “The Color of Rain,” which was the highest rated and most watched original film in the network’s history. Chabert’s feature film credits include Warner Brother’s “Ghosts of Girlfriend’s Past,” starring opposite Jennifer Garner and Matthew McConaughey, box office hit “Mean Girls,” for which she received outstanding reviews and an MTV Movie Award, “Daddy Day Care,” starring as Anjelica Huston’s daughter, and A&E’s “The Brooke Ellison Story,” playing the lead in Christopher Reeve’s final directorial project.

  • The Myth of the Good Italian in the Italian Cinema
    ISSN 2039-2117 (online) Mediterranean Journal of Social Sciences Vol 5 No 16 ISSN 2039-9340 (print) MCSER Publishing, Rome-Italy July 2014 The Myth of the Good Italian in the Italian Cinema Sanja Bogojević Faculty of Philosophy, University of Montenegro Doi:10.5901/mjss.2014.v5n16p675 Abstract In this paper we analyze the phenomenon called the “myth of the good Italian” in the Italian cinema, especially in the first three decades of after-war period. Thanks to the recent success of films such as Tarantino’s Inglorious Basterds or Academy Award- winning Benigni’s film La vita è bella and Spielberg’s Schindler’s List it is commonly believed that the Holocaust is a very frequent and popular theme. Nevertheless, this statement is only partly true, especially when it comes to Italian cinema. Soon after the atrocities of the WWII Italian cinema became one of the most prominent and influential thanks to its national film movement, neorealism, characterized by stories set amongst the poor and famished postwar Italy, celebrating the fight for freedom under the banners of Resistance and representing a nation opposed to the Fascist and Nazi regime. Interestingly, these films, in spite of their very important social engagement, didn’t even mention the Holocaust or its victims and it wasn’t until the 1960’s that Italian cinema focused on representing and telling this horrific stories. Nevertheless, these films represented Italians as innocent and incapable of committing cruel acts. The responsibility is usually transferred to the Germans as typically cold and sadistic, absolving Italians of their individual and national guilt.
