[CIMC-work] Re: [Imc-chicago-video] We need films

[nscchicago]

Tom Baker here. The Chiapas Media Project
has some beautiful pieces, most short but
their latest about setting up Good Government
is 30+

They could fill a program segment.
I will be there Friday morning.
Tell me what to do.

I want to screen their footage at the
SANDINO VIVE, so whatever.


Mitchell, I still have your Greg Palast
Counting on Democracy about the theft
of the Florida election.

Facets has Fire from the Mountain, or
did I already suggest that.

hello friends -

here's my 2 cents - i would vote for something that is
information heavy and
ideally inspires viewers to debate/explore further/take
action. i would
imagine that the people showing up at healing earth
might already be lefty
leaning and need more concrete info/eduacation on the
topics they feel
vaguely one way or another about..

you originally proposed the following films:

> > * Aftermath by GNN (and a selection of newsvides)
> > * Any film by John Pilger (I've seen three in the past
two
> > years)
> > * Films from justicevision.com
> > * Some films from the BBC Correspondent series
> > * Counting On Democracy by Danny Schechter
> > * Chicago Independent Television (two episodes =
one
> > movie)
> > * Where We Stood
> > * Patriot Acts
> > * Unprecedented (LA Indymedia connection)
> > * Uncovered
> > * Most any "old skool" Michael Moore films [who won
the
> > Palme d'Or]
> > * Most anything from the Media Education Foundation
> > * Manufacturing Consent: Noam Chomsky and the
Media
> > * The Revolution Will NOt Be Televised

i would cut from the list of options anything that is
prodominantly about
protest activity. although that is necessary to have 'out
there,' i don't
know that it is the most effective use of this awareness-
raising
opportunity. i imagine some people would disagree with
me, though -
anyone??
