Moonlight Sonata

Glenn’s Pick – Glenn Webb, Director of Programs – Being a professional sound engineer and an amateur musician, I take my hearing for granted most of the time. And music is a daily part of my reality. So it takes a movie like MOONLIGHT SONATA to challenge my assumed reality, which ...

Light from Light

Glenn’s Pick – Glenn Webb, Director of Programs – Maybe it was Casper or other benign depictions in media, but I never saw why people thought ghosts were scary. When I was 9 my mother died, and my father was devastated. He told me later that he spent a week ...

Greener Grass

Glenn’s Pick – Glenn Webb, Director of Programs – Absurdist comedy can cut through social conventions like a knife, laying bare the contradictions and shared delusions. Taking the commonplace and making it uncanny and bizarre gives us a distance from which we can observe ourselves, sometimes with comic clarity. That’s ...

Loro

Glenn’s Pick – Glenn Webb, Director of Programs – Even if recent political affairs seem like a circus side-show, it helps when seen from the distance of another country on another continent. The wild spectacle of affluence and power that Berlusconi brought to the forefront of public awareness is so ...

Give Me Liberty

Glenn’s Pick – Glenn Webb, Director of Programs – There is definitely some good humor in the movie GIVE ME LIBERTY, but it would be wrong to approach this just as a comedy. The predicaments of the protagonist are easily recognizable to most of us because it is the experience ...

Glenn’s Pick – Glenn Webb, Director of Programs – One way that a Dairy Membership is more than just a collection of discounts is the monthly opportunity in The Boe to add your voice to the curatorial process for the cinema. We invite our members to watch a movie with ...

Rosemary’s Baby/Friday Night Weird

Glenn’s Pick – Glenn Webb, Director of Programs – “Rosemary’s Baby” and the novel it is based on have grown into a new relevance. What appeared to be a story about the occult, perhaps with overtones of paranoia and critique of the social elite, now is a classic example of ...

La Casa Lobo

Glenn’s Pick – Glenn Webb, Director of Programs – This week we have some great movies, but I need to show some love to the Friday Night Weird selection, La Casa Lobo (The Wolf House.) It’s a hybrid form of animation, mixing stop-motion and hand painting, as backgrounds spontaneously morph into new ...

Fiddlin’

Glenn’s Pick – Glenn Webb, Director of Programs – I can’t remember who said it, whether it was Utah Phillips or Woody Guthrie or someone else, but the quote is, “Music is way too important to leave it to the professionals.” Now I have utmost respect for professional musicians, for ...

Desert Utopia

 – Glenn’s Pick by Glenn Webb, Director of Programs –  In my past life as a touring sound engineer, I unexpectedly found myself traveling to Weimar, Germany with a couple of days to kill between rehearsal and show. So I wandered through the birthplace of Bauhaus architecture and had a ...

Ága

Glenn’s Pick by Glenn Webb, Director of Programs – At first glance, it might look like an anthropological documentary about how the Yakut people live in the Far North, but Ága is actually a family drama told in a strikingly sparse way. Rather than sharp dialogue and plot pyrotechnics, this movie shows an ...
