    DOC NYC ANNOUNCES FINAL TITLES INCLUDING WORLD PREMIERE OF BRUCE SPRINGSTREEN & THE E STREET BAND’S “DARKNESS ON THE EDGE OF TOWN” CONCERT FILM AT ZIEGFELD THEATER ON NOVEMBER 4TH AND “MOMENTS OF TRUTH” FEATURING ALEC BALDWIN AND OTHER FAMOUS FIGURES DISCUSSING THEIR FAVORITE DOC MOMENTS New York, NY, October 19th 2010 - DOC NYC, New York’s Documentary Festival, announced its final slate of titles including the world premiere of “Darkness on the Edge of Town,” a new concert film with Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band performing their classic album. The film will screen at the Ziegfeld Theatre on November 4. Directed by the Grammy and Emmy award winner Thom Zimny, the film was shot last year at the Paramount Theatre in Asbury Park, NJ in an unconventional manner without any audience in attendance. Springsteen’s manager Jon Landau has said this presentation “best captures the starkness of the original album.” The film will be released on DVD as part of the box set “The Promise: The Darkness on the Edge of Town Story” later in November. “We wanted to give fans a one night only opportunity to see this spectacular performance on the Ziegfeld’s big screen,” said DOC NYC Artistic Director Thom Powers. A portion of the proceeds from this screening will be donated to the Danny Fund/Melanoma Research Alliance – a non-profit foundation devoted to advancing melanoma research and awareness set up after the 2008 passing of Danny Federici, longtime Springsteen friend and E-Street Band member. DOC NYC will help launch a new promo campaign of shorts called “Moments of Truth,” in which noteworthy figures (actors, politicians, musicians, etc) describe particular documentary moments that moved them.

  • Action | Adventure | Comedy | Crime & Gangster | Drama
    Genres and generic conventions Below is a list of some of the main genres in film. For each genre there are broad descriptions of typical plots and characters, some aspects of mise- en-scene and theme. Genre is a very fluid idea however, and a film may not easily fit into just one genre, so sub-genres are also listed. Each description features some gaps for you to fill in- these are the names of each genre. Read the description carefully and choose one of the following genres to add into the gaps. ACTION | ADVENTURE | COMEDY | CRIME & GANGSTER | DRAMA | EPICS & HISTORICAL | HORROR | MUSICAL | SCIENCE FICTION | WAR | WESTERNS EXTENSION: for each, list 2 or 3 reasons why each example film fits in with that genre. Conventions Example films _______ are serious films. They are driven by intense plots that aim to portray realistic characters, settings, situations and stories that involve intense character development. ______ tend to eschew special-effects or action though some of these elements may feature. Traditionally, ______ films are probably the largest film genre but perhaps because it is a very broad genre that can apply to a wide range of sub genres. Some examples include melodramas, epics (historical dramas), or romantic genres. ______ biographical films (or "biopics") are a major sub-genre. 1 _________ films are exciting stories, with interesting experiences and set pieces set in a variety of exotic locales. Whilst featuring many similar aspects to the action genre, _______ films tend to see characters travelling around trying to find a Macguffin. These films can include traditional swashbucklers, serialised films, expeditions for lost continents, explorations of jungles, deserts or even space, treasure hunts and any other form of “search” or “hunt”.

Discussing the ways in which Flaherty prearranged character interactions and informally scripted many of the scenarios that would ultimately feature in his films, camera assistant John Taylor later recalled for filmmaker George Stoney that he wrote in his notebooks at the time the word “mockumentary” to describe this creative treatment of the nonfictional material How( ).

  • Bamcinématek Presents Queer Pagan Punk: the Films of Derek Jarman, Oct 30—Nov 11
    BAMcinématek presents Queer Pagan Punk: The Films of Derek Jarman, Oct 30—Nov 11 A complete retrospective of Jarman’s 12 feature films, the most comprehensive New York series in nearly two decades New restorations of debut feature Sebastiane and Caravaggio “It feels like the correct time to be reminded of an ancient tradition that has always served civilization well, that of the independent, truth-telling poet provocateur.”—Tilda Swinton The Wall Street Journal is the title sponsor for BAMcinématek and BAM Rose Cinemas. Brooklyn, NY/Sep 30, 2014—From Thursday, October 30 through Tuesday, November 11, BAMcinématek presents Queer Pagan Punk: The Films of Derek Jarman, a comprehensive retrospective of iconoclastic British filmmaker and crusading gay rights activist Derek Jarman, following its run at the BFI this spring. Jarman not only redefined queer cinema, but reimagined moviemaking as a means for limitless personal expression. From classical adaptations to historical biographies to avant-garde essay films, he crafted a body of work that was at once personal and political, during a difficult period when British independent cinema was foundering and the AIDS crisis provoked a wave of panic and homophobia. Also a poet, diarist, and painter, Jarman first entered the realm of the movies as a production designer for Ken Russell. The Devils (1971—Oct 31), Russell’s controversial opus of repressed nuns and witchcraft trials, played out in a 17th-century French village that Jarman spent a year creating. His own first feature, Sebastiane (1976—Nov 9), playing in a new restoration, placed a daring emphasis on male nudity and eroticism as it chronicled the death of the Christian martyr; Jarman called it “the first film that depicted homosexuality in a completely matter-of-fact way.” A time-traveling Queen Elizabeth I wanders among the ruins of a dystopic modern London in Jubilee (1978—Oct 30), a shot-in-the-streets survey of the burgeoning punk scene that captures early performances by Adam Ant, Wayne County, Siouxsie and the Banshees, and the Slits.
