The current must-see movie:

No one is making movies like this one, and it’s a remarkable accomplishment in a dozen different ways—including distribution: Upstream Color is still in some theaters, but it’s also now available on DVD/Blu-ray and on-demand.

Sounds like you should probably go download UPSTREAM COLOR directly from Shane Carruth? Yeah, you should go download it directly from Shane Carruth.

THE ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT DOCUMENTARY PROJECT is a long title for a long-due story about a very long-beloved series.

This documentary was created by two fans and stars all kinds of other fans, including original cast and crew. Their take on this witty television show is equally witty and endearing (read: Ron Howard, Henry Winkler). And you can now stream and download the film DRM-free.

It sure is a good time to be an Arrested Development fan.

Steven Soderbergh’s State Of Cinema Talk

Fri, 03 May 2013 14:31:01 -0400

Steven Soderbergh’s State Of Cinema Talk:

“Cinema is a specificity of vision. It’s an approach in which everything matters. It’s the polar opposite of generic or arbitrary and the result is as unique as a signature or a fingerprint. It isn’t made by a committee, and it isn’t made by a company, and it isn’t made by the audience. It means that if this filmmaker didn’t do it, it either wouldn’t exist at all, or it wouldn’t exist in anything like this form.”

Giving artists the freedom to create their work without restrictions? Yup, we can sign up for that.

Ina May Gaskin is a quietly badass midwife challenging how we think about maternity care. BIRTH STORY highlights her daily commitment to the knowledge and power of modern midwives, one birth at a time.

Is this movie just for pregnant ladies? Nope. BIRTH STORY is for me, you, and every womb we know.

We Are Legion: The Story of the Hacktivists director Brian Knappenberger has posted a Kickstarter to get his next film out of the gate. The film, tentatively titled The Internet’s Own Boy, will take a look at the life of technology champion and political activist Aaron Swartz. You may not be familiar with the name but if you’ve ever encountered an RSS feed, you owe the man a debt of gratitude.

It’s a complex subject that will need some smart storytelling. We think Brian is just the man for the job and hope you’ll check out the project.
