There's gonna be a new indie film screening space in Silver Spring, MD

-
Not a movie theater that shows indie stuff everyday, but more like a microcinema that will be happening on a regular basis - at first monthly. The people who are starting it are working on getting the venue ready at the moment, hmmm what else - the place will have screenings & parties (good food & drinks for sure), & most likely this new space will begin screenings in May. More on the venue when I get the official OK to reveal the details & also info. on submitting movies, stay tuned.

Apparently Eric Rohmer - a celebrated filmmaker in the art house film world - and his racist beliefs have been an open secret for decades.  I only heard about it last night.  See images and links below. Rohmer thought that only Europeans should make movies.  And he did not like multi-ethnic casting in movies.  Avoided casting non-white actors in his movies for decades - thus making his movies racist. There are plenty of other, non-racist, French and other filmmakers we can watch. Avoid Eric Rohmer movies - racism is a dangerous belief system - has lead to the death of millions of people in the past.
