Check out MovieMaker article about new doc Blank City - about DIY filmmaking activity in NYC in the late 70's & early 80's. From the article:
"Later I spoke to Tess Hughes-Freeland, assistant editor for Fingered, Richard Kern’s 1986 violent porn-as-antiporn film starring Lydia Lunch, who remarked that today’s explosion of instant DIY moviemaking—via digital outlets such as YouTube—mirrors the spirit of the Super8 moviemakers. She also praised Danhier for the comprehensiveness of her approach to chronicling that dynamic time."
Check out the article at MovieMaker.
And here's the website for Blank City.
