SUMMARY:Crosstown Arthouse Presents Anniversary Screenings: 30th Anniversary of DO THE RIGHT THING
DESCRIPTION:The Crosstown Arthouse Film Series showcases a diverse collection of independent\, international\, historically significant\, artistic\, experimental\, cult\, underground and documentary features. This week: DO THE RIGHT THING \nFilms begin at 7:30 pm sharp.\nTickets are $5 (at the door only) \nCome celebrate the 30th Anniversary of Spike Lee’s powerful DO THE RIGHT THING at Crosstown Theater. Mookie is the pizza delivery man for Salvatore.

The pizzeria features a Wall of Fame that only highlights Italians. The film really begins when neighborhood activist Buggin’ Out questions Salvatore as to why there are no pictures of black celebrities in a neighborhood made up almost entirely of black and brown people.

SUMMARY:Crosstown Arthouse Presents Women Pioneers of Cinema — BE NATURAL: THE UNTOLD STORY OF ALICE GUY-BLACHÉ
DESCRIPTION:The Crosstown Arthouse Film Series showcases a diverse collection of independent\, international\, historically significant\, artistic\, experimental\, cult\, underground and documentary features. This week: BE NATURAL: THE UNTOLD STORY OF ALICE GUY-BLACHÉ  \nFilms begin at 7:30 pm sharp.\nTickets are $5 (at the door only) \nNarrated by Jodie Foster\, BE NATURAL: THE UNTOLD STORY OF ALICE GUY-BLACHÉ is a documentary about the first female filmmaker\, Alice Guy-Blaché\, which explores the heights of fame and financial success she achieved before she was shut out from the very industry she helped create. \nGuy-Blaché started her career as a secretary to Léon Gaumont and\, at 23\, was inspired to make her own film called La Fée aux Choux (The Cabbage Fairy)\, one of the first narrative films ever made. After her filmmaking career at Gaumont (1896-1907)\, she had a second decade-long career in the U.S.\, where she built and ran her own studio in Fort Lee\, N.J. \nOver the span of her career\, she wrote\, produced\, or directed 1\,000 films\, including 150 with synchronized sound during the silent film era. Her work includes comedies\, westerns\, and dramas\, as well as films with groundbreaking subject matter such as child abuse\, immigration\, Planned Parenthood\, and female empowerment. She also etched a place in history by making the earliest known surviving narrative film with an all-black cast. \nGreen has dedicated more than eight years of research in order to discover the real story of Alice Guy-Blaché (1873-1968)\, not only highlighting her pioneering contributions to the birth of cinema but also her acclaim as a creative force and entrepreneur in the earliest years of movie-making. Green interviewed Patty Jenkins\, Diablo Cody\, Ben Kingsley\, Geena Davis\, Ava DuVernay\, Michel Hazanavicius\, and Julie Delpy  to name a few. Green discovered rare footage of televised interviews and long-archived audio interviews which can be heard for the first time in Be Natural\, which affords Alice Guy-Blaché to tell her own story.

SUMMARY:Crosstown Arthouse Presents Women in Horror: THE SLUMBER PARTY MASSACRE
DESCRIPTION:The Crosstown Arthouse Film Series showcases a diverse collection of independent\, international\, historically significant\, artistic\, experimental\, cult\, underground and documentary features. This week: THE SLUMBER PARTY MASSACRE \nFilms begin at 7:30 pm sharp.\nTickets are $5 (at the door only) \nAmy Holden Jones turned down an editing job on E.T. to direct this movie. She made the right choice! Rita Mae Brown wrote the screenplay of THE SLUMBER PARTY MASSACRE sometime between when she wrote the classic lesbian coming-of-age tale Rubyfruit Jungle and her long series of cat mystery novels. SLUMBER PARTY MASSACRE was intended to be a commentary on the inherent sexism of the slasher genre but was filmed completely straight. THE SLUMBER PARTY MASSACRE is a terrific inside joke that also delivers the goods as a skid row photocopy of HALLOWEEN\, complete with a killer who’s figuratively castrated when the tip of his power drill is hacked off.  With its stylized photography\, plot points involving pizza and an endlessly cool homemade synth score\, THE SLUMBER PARTY MASSACRE is a drop-dead masterpiece of subversive trash-horror.
