Went to a showcase of the Hypnotic Documentary directed by Reuben Atlas. The pieces I’ve seen so far are amazing. This movie is gonna be great. Reuben has been following them for the past 3 years. More information can be found here www.hypnoticbrassfilm.com . The TRAILER
I watched this movie with my family. It’s loosely based on the life of Huo Yuanjia, one of the original practioners of Wushu. If you love martial arts films, you’ll love this. If you don’t love martial arts films, you’ll love this too. It’ll keep you engaged from start till end. Jet Li is a beast. (5 time world champion Wushu before he turned 18!) Loved Betty Sun’s role as a blind farmer girl, though she only played a small part.
My friend Bibi Fadlalla made a documentary about Damon Peruzzi. Damon Peruzzi is the promoter of the longest running hiphop party in New York City. Over the past eight years Peruzzi, originally from Detroit, has created his own world where the kids, the thugs, the dragqueens, and the celebrities flock every week, and everyone’s beautiful under the flashing lights. Stars in His Eyes explores this dynamic scene and trails its svengali, Damon Peruzzi. A dizzying ride, through an unbelievable world, Peruzzi’s parties are all about looking great and having fun. But is that really all there is to it?
