Award-winning films at the 2003 ARLIS Conference on Friday, March 21,
8-11 P.M.!  Be sure to register when you do your Conference
registration!

Here’s a chance to become acquainted with the “real” Baltimore.  Sit
back, munch popcorn, and enjoy “Little Castles,” “The Screen Painters,”
and “Divine Trash.”  Here’s what the critics have said about these
entertaining films:

DIVINE TRASH:” Whether you see [John] Waters as one of the most
influential independent filmmakers (along with John Cassavetes and John
Sayles), see him as the Baltimore version of Andy Warhol, or see him as
the creator of the most offensive trash imaginable, Divine Trash is well
worth examining. Yeager's movie deserves the Filmmakers Trophy it won at
the 1998 Sundance Film Festival, and is the most entertaining
documentary I’ve seen that wasn’t created by Errol Morris..”

THE SCREEN PAINTERS:  “…does a neat job of capturing rich, quirky
Baltimore flavor… The film, details a local tradition, nearly a century
strong, of painting vivid scenes--often peaceful and bucolic, but
sometimes more fantastical--on the screen doors and windows screens of
rowhouses. [Baltimore City Paper Online, Nov. 13-19, 2002]
LITTLE CASTLES: ‘I remember when it was red brick,’ John says, glancing
around. ‘It looked like a shantytown. [But then] a man came in with
Formstone and made it look like Hollywood.’ Welcome to Little Castles, a
documentary that turns the camera lens on Baltimore's most ubiquitous
yet overlooked physical phenomena: Formstone…the cement-based faux stone
is a trenchant symbol of the city. [City Paper, March 25-31, 1998]
See you at the movies!
