Portmanteau: 35mm, 16mm, and ¼” Magnetic Audio Tape
September 27 - Friday - 8:30 p.m.
(Multiple Formats. 120 min. Not Rated.) Admission is free for registered symposium attendees and $10 for all others. The program includes: A Frontier Post (Fox, 1925) World Premiere. This newly-restored, never released short profiles the U.S. Calvalry’s legendary ‘Buffalo Soldiers’. The film is presented with a commissioned live score by Gabriel Gutierrez Arellano. Greg Wilsbacher (University of South Carolina) is scheduled to introduce. Landfill 16 (2011) Jennifer Reeves temporarily buried outtakes of her films to let enzymes and fungi in the soil begin to decompose the image. Once exhumed from her own landfill in Elkhart, Indiana, she handpainted the film to give it a new life - a meditation on the demise of the 16mm medium and nature’s losing battle to decompose the relics of our abandoned technologies and productions. Filmmaker Jennifer Reeves is scheduled to introduce. Suitcase of Love and Shame (2013) Tender, erotic, and pathetic, this film collage examines the obsession to chronicle the details of an adulterous love affair. Reconstructed from 1960s audio recordings purchased on eBay, Jane Gillooly’s film reimagines a narrative in which a Midwestern woman and her lover become reliant on recording devices to document and memorialize their relationship. Director Jane Gillooly and Archivist Albert Steg are scheduled to introduce.
The Orgy at Lil’s Place (1963) Directed by Jerald Intrator
September 27 - Friday - 11:59 p.m.
Two sisters who become nude art models are drawn into New York’s darker world of prostitution and degradation, where “If you didn’t go to the limit, you were considered a square!” Long considered lost, The Orgy at Lil’s Place is an important missing link in the history of sexploitation films. This high-grossing early “roughie” help set the tone for violent cautionary tales about the 1960s sexual revolution. This recently rediscovered 35mm print appears courtesy of the Kinsey Institute for Research in Sex, Gender, and Reproduction. No one under 18 years of age will be admitted. (35mm. 77 min. Not rated.) Admission is free for registered symposium attendees and $3 for all others. Film historian Eric Schaefer (Emerson College) is scheduled to introduce.
