Family wedding that week, won't be able to cover SilverDocs

-
My sister is getting married the week of 6/15, so, the whole family (well, at least several key members out of the thousands) is in town from many parts of the world (including parts unknown), causing me to schedule in much hang out time w/ these people who are reported to be related to me, so, I won't be at SilverDocs feasting on their offering of docs.

However, luckily for all of us, Brian "The Film Panel Notetaker" Geldin will be in town, taking notes, interviewing people & otherwise turning his blog into a red hot sexy source of SilverDocs '08 info.

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.
