    The Films of John Korty, Feb 24—26

    MEDIA ALERT BAMcinématek presents Fog City Maverick: The Films of John Korty, Feb 24—26 Korty in person! Co-presented by Cinema Conservancy “A man of taste, intelligence, and high aspirations who refuses to make conventional films.”—The New York Times The Wall Street Journal is the title sponsor for BAM Rose Cinemas and BAMcinématek. Brooklyn, NY/Jan 21, 2015—From Tuesday, February 24 through Thursday, February 26, BAMcinématek presents Fog City Maverick: The Films of John Korty, a three-day tribute to one of American independent cinema’s most distinctive, unsung voices. The Oscar- and Emmy-winning San Francisco director/animator has quietly carved out a one-of-a-kind career over the past five decades. Praised by Pauline Kael as one of the most “gifted, intelligent men outside the industry… attempting to make inexpensive feature-films as honestly and independently as they can,” Korty has forgone mainstream Hollywood ambitions despite his early Bay Area associations with George Lucas and Francis Ford Coppola. Instead he chose to pursue uncompromisingly original, refreshingly offbeat indie projects across narrative, documentary, animation, and television that reflect his boundless visual imagination and humanistic outlook. Opening the series on Tuesday, February 24 is an exceedingly rare 35mm screening of the eye- popping cult animation masterpiece Twice Upon A Time (1983), barely seen on the big screen in New York since its tragically limited original release. Other highlights include Funnyman (1967— Feb 25), a stop-motion animation/live-action hybrid featuring legendary San Francisco comedy troupe the Committee; Korty’s feature debut The Crazy-Quilt (1966—Feb 25), part of the 1979 New York Film Festival’s seminal American Independents survey alongside classics The Cool World, Badlands, Sweet Sweetback’s Badasssss Song, and Northern Lights; and Korty’s Academy Award-winning documentary, Who Are the DeBolts? And Where Did They Get Nineteen Kids? (1977—Feb 26).

    News Release. Tiff Unveils Top Ten Canadian Films of 2017

    December 6, 2017 .NEWS RELEASE. TIFF UNVEILS TOP TEN CANADIAN FILMS OF 2017 The Canada’s Top Ten Film Festival™ illuminates the nation with public screenings, free events, and special guests Alanis Obomsawin, Evan Rachel Wood and Jeremy Podeswa TORONTO — TIFF® is toasting the end of Canada’s sesquicentennial with its compelling list of 2017’s best Canadian films for the 17th annual Canada’s Top Ten Film Festival™. Established in 2001, the festival is one of the largest and longest-running showcases of Canadian film. From January 12 to 21, 2018 at TIFF Bell Lightbox in Toronto, the 10-day event boasts a rich offering of public screenings, Q&A sessions and a special Industry Forum, followed by a nationwide tour stopping in Vancouver, Montreal, Regina, Edmonton, Winnipeg, Ottawa and Saskatoon. Cameron Bailey, Artistic Director of TIFF, says the Canada’s Top Ten Film Festival is a vibrant celebration of diversity and excellence in contemporary Canadian cinema. “Our filmmakers have proven that they are among the best in the world and all Canadians should feel incredibly proud to get behind them and celebrate their achievements. Wrapping up Canada’s year in the global spotlight, we are thrilled to present this uniquely Canadian list, rich not only in talent but also in its diversity of perspectives, stories, and voices that reflect our nation’s multiculturalism," said Bailey. Steve Gravestock, TIFF Senior Programmer, says the number of exciting new voices alongside seasoned masters in this year’s lineup is a testament to the health of the Canadian film industry. "With a top ten that includes five first- or second-time feature directors, there is much to celebrate in Canadian cinema this year," said Gravestock.
