Deadline (2004)


Directors:
Katy Chevigny,
Kirsten Johnson

Runtime: 90 min

"One of the biggest hot-button issues dividing the United States has long been capital punishment, so when Illinois Governor George Ryan, a conservative Republican, commuted the sentences of 167 death row inmates the day before his term ended, it shocked the nation and outraged many in his own party. This documentary from the filmmaking duo of Katy Chevigny and Kirsten Johnson explores not only the investigative work done by a group of Northwestern University journalism students that led to Ryan's staunch opposition to the death penalty, but also the impact the capital punishment debate has on the nation as a whole."

Domestic Violence (2001)


Director:
Frederick Wiseman

Runtime: 196 min

"With Domestic Violence, master documentarian Frederick Wiseman (High School, Titicut Follies) turns his unflinching eye on a topic that society has ignored for far too long. Rather than film actual domestic disputes, a la COPS, Wiseman instead takes a much less exploitative approach, and, in so doing, has created a deeply intelligent, challenging work that will no doubt spark serious discussions wherever it is exhibited (most likely on PBS, with whom the director has a longstanding relationship). Focusing on The Spring, Tampa, which is Florida's largest shelter for abused women and their children, Wiseman's objective camera allows a group of these distraught women to tell their own painful stories. As each new victim bravely shares her tale of horror, it becomes painfully clear just how convoluted and troubling a problem domestic violence actually is, a claim that Wiseman supports technically, through his use of extremely long takes and unobtrusive editing. At 196 minutes, the experience is a draining one, to say the least. But it is stimulating in a way that most films, documentary or otherwise, are not. Staying true to the formula that has made him a cinematic legend, Frederick Wiseman proves once again that there is far more drama in everyday life than in the multiplexes." - by Calculate

GG ALLIN - The Final Hellride (1993, funeral)


Full footage of GG ALLIN'S funeral.

Runtime: 90 min

Wake 7-2-93.
Funeral 7-3-93.
Headstone Memorial 8-28-94.


"Features all you'd expect from a funeral with speeches, tears yet with a few minor differences (photos with the corpse, donating dirty panties, pills and booze for the stay downunder) but the headstone memorial has a touch of scum when Dino gets two drumsticks inserted into his ass by Merle Allin and then takes a piss in a rubbish bin right next to the headstone.

Has some interesting stuff here and there, and it is a weird sight to see GG actually motionless, calm and silent, but less hardcore GG fans may find themselves reaching for the fast forward button a few times like a boring porno."



GG ALLIN 8-29-1956 - 6-28-1993 (RIP)
