ONE - ARTHOUSE FILM NEWS - Cosmic Disco Detective Rene at Film Noir Cinema, NYC starting 7/12/24

Filmmaker & author Rick Schmidt recently viewed the rough cut of Breakthrough Weekend.  Among other things, he said the following: “ Breakthrough Weekend by Brooklyn-based indie writer/director Sujewa Ekanayake is very funny, exceedingly interesting & entertaining. It’s amazing that the hilarious ‘spiritual’ advice offered in core scenes actually transcends itself, supplying effective solutions to our (often stuck) modern lives!”   – filmmaker/author Rick Schmidt :: :: IndieGoGo - Breakthrough Weekend ::

From the interview : "FA: As an American, can you share with us your first encounter with Simenon? Did you know him for his detective novels or mainly  for the numerous film adaptions based on his books? JR: I’ve always been aware of Simenon as the author of the Maigrets (and unfairly dismissed him as such), but it was only when New York Review Books (NYRB) began re-printing a number of his roman durs that I discovered what an amazing (and dark) writer he is.  I started with “The Man Who Watched Trains Go By”, and was immediately hooked.  I think that may still be my favorite, but I’m also a huge fan of “The Strangers in the House”, “The Engagement”, “Dirty Snow”, “Red Lights”, and “The Act of Passion” (and really all of the roman durs).  I’ve only read a couple Maigrets, to be honest, and wasn’t so taken with them."

Saw Andrew Bujalski's new movie Computer Chess last night.  It's a weird - in a good way, funny, interesting, odd movie shot on 80's video - definitely an indie film/art movie.  Trailer is below. Go here for Computer Chess's website. And here are the showtimes for the movie at Film Forum in NYC. :: IndieGoGo - Breakthrough Weekend :: :: ADVERTISEMENT 1 - Top 15 free Mac apps for graphic designers - Farzad Rostami blog http://farzadrostami12.blogspot.com/2013/08/top-15-free-mac-apps-for-graphic.html 2 - Alfredo Moser and his invention - the bottle light - at Farzad Rostami blog http://farzadrostami12.blogspot.com/2013/08/alfredo-moser-and-his-invention-bottle.html 3 - Ballet dancers in random situations - Farzad Rostami blog http://farzadrostami12.blogspot.com/2013/08/ballet-dancers-in-random-situations.html 4 - Magnus & The Air Quotes Woman - Farzad Rostami http://farzadrostami12.blogspot.com/2013/08/magnus-air-quotes-woma...
