It was a full house Sunday night at Spaceland for 'Flicker number ten.' Eleven films and a broad spectrum of cinematic expression kept the audience immensely enthused for over two hours. The crowd was a melting-pot of the usual Angelino variety.
Naturally, I enjoyed watching my own film ("Death of a Teletype") on a big (bigger) screen. Other films I enjoyed were "If Satan Was a D.J.," "442," and "This Is The Road" (the latter having that comedy-by-way-of-absurdity about it).
Chris Lopez was the winner of the Flicker $100 Grant for "If Satan Was A D.J.," and a second grant was presented to Charles Doran for "Ennui."
It seems as though the popularity of the 'experimental film' continues to grow in L.A., as well as globally. And while many still seek to penetrate the impervious walls of "Hollywood" with their film expertise, lovers of film/cinema continue to seek artistic expression through various channels. We are all glad to have Flicker as one such channel.
