Oh yeah! Alternatively trashy and poignant – and sometimes just plain
hard to believe these days – here's an irresistible program of Black
Cinema trailers that trace its evolution through its most crucial
period, 1946-1976.
Be careful or you just might learn something.

"A sometimes funny, sometimes frightening look at Tinseltown's
presentation of Blacks." – Edward Marguiles, Movieline

"Offers considerable fun, and food for thought." – Dennis Harvey, Variety

"A picture tells a thousand words, but a shameless movie trailer can
say even more." – Barry Walters, SF Examiner

3min 30sec
Imagistic and experimental exploration on the nature of desire and how
far you would go for the girl you love.

Winner in .MOV '08 Silvershorts Student Category- 3rd place

"vivid imagery, providing an effective crosscutting of pastoral and
media news to capture the anxieties of heterosexual love. It is a film
finely realized by a director who knows what he's doing, has a good
sense of measure, of rhythm and space. "- Jury.MOV (ROLANDO B.
TOLENTINO, GERTJAN ZUILHOF, JASON SANDERS, OLAF MÖLLER, PAOLO BERTOLIN)
