Presents

NEXT TUESDAY Nov. 24th- Love Lived on Death Row, 7:00-9:00 pm

The Fearrington Village Barn, Pittsboro (Hwy 15-501, midway btw. Chapel Hill & Pittsboro) Admission at door $5 for adults/$3 for students. Cash beverage/bar available during films. Admissions proceeds benefit ChathamArts and its arts & education programs and its future Youth Documentary Arts Program at SAGE Academy.

Chatham County filmmaker Linda Booker’s documentary chronicles the remarkable story of the Syriani sibling’s journey from hate and anger to love and forgiveness for their father who murdered their mother in 1990. After 14 years of estrangement, their miraculous reconciliation led them to a campaign for his clemency that captured the nation’s attention on The Larry King Show. Prior to the film: Anoushka Brod, Mary Beth Clark, Kerstin Lindgren, Pam Smith, Jane Allen and Betty Wilson present a theatrical reading of ”For Strong Women”, a poem by award-winning author Marge Piercy presented on behalf of women who have survived violence or loss and held on to a deep capacity to love. Post screening Q&A with filmmaker Linda Booker. Visit the film’s website for more information.

“Love Lived on Death Row is an excellent model for how documentaries do more than just entertain. This outcome was evident with the quality of questions and dialogue with the [post-screening] panel members about the larger issues of the death penalty, reconciliation, forgiveness, and healing.”– Beth Davison, Associate Professor of Sociology, Appalachian State University

Second Cinema, and host Matt Pennachi, had the extreme pleasure to SKYPE with Director, Gary Sherman over the weekend about his 1982 film, VICE SQUAD. Mr. Sherman was gracious enough to give us a few moments to talk about the film and we are extremely excited to be able to bring that conversation to you.

This interview is a precursor to Cinema Overdrive’s 35mm presentation of VICE SQUAD this Thursday, November 11, 2009, at The Colony Theater in Raleigh, North Carolina at 8pm. If you have never seen this film, or are a huge fan, please don’t miss the opportunity to witness this classic on the big screen…trust me, you won’t be disappointed.

This is also a first for Second Cinema, Skyping that is, and while we still have a ways to go in turns of tweaking for overall video clarity / quality, I have to say that for our first outing, it’s not that bad…and to kick it off with a gem like Gary Sherman is a dream come true.

So stay tuned to www.secondcinema.com for more exclusive interviews, films, and events. If you are interested in submitting your films or would like to be a guest on the show, please drop us a line at secondcinema@gmail.com

Graphic designer Rich Gurnsey can now add animator and filmmaker to his list of titles. We had the great pleasure of having Gurnsey stop by Second Cinema to talk with us about his latest project, WELCOME TO CREEPYVILLE. We first heard of his film via our friends at filmSPARK and once we saw it, we knew we had to sit down with Rich and get WTC on the show. Check out the interview with Rich followed by a screening of WELCOME TO CREEPYVILLE.
