Campus Film: The Unbearable Lightness of Being
Lyrical, erotic and allegorical drama set in Czechoslovakia on the eve of the 1968 Soviet invasion. A surgeon and compulsive womanizer (Daniel Day-Lewis) divides his time between the free-spirited painter (Lena Olin) who is one of his lovers, and the politically conscious photographer (Juliette Binoche) he marries. "In 1988, the film received a lot of attention for its frank sexuality, but its sex scenes aren't as notable for their lustiness (though it's best not to understate how sexy they are) as for how much Kaufman and his actors say with only body language. No one leaves the film unchallenged or unchanged. Other people and the forces of history make sure of that. And whether the outcome is tragic or blissful, it's part of what makes any life, whether lived once or repeated endlessly, worth living at all. No one floats forever" (The Onion A.V. Club). USA 1988, 171min, rated R, Directed by Philip Kaufman.

Days of Glory
The forgotten story of Algerian Arabs, “indigènes”, who volunteered to fight for France in World War II is told in this gritty, old-fashioned war movie, an Academy Award nominee for Best Foreign Language Film. New York Magazine calls it “a rousing memorial to the Muslims who fought against Germany — and fought because they wanted to be Frenchmen. ... Scene after scene makes its anti-racist point, and yet the film isn’t a series of head butts. It’s a measured, classical piece of storytelling that gives you room to breathe.”

Although Ed Wood’s camp classic was voted “the worst film of all time” in a readers’ poll for the 1980 book The Golden Turkey Awards, some argue that it’s so bad that it’s good. “The plot brings monsters from outer space to rob our graveyards, rejuvenate whatever is left of the dead and make robot-like slaves out of them,” wrote film distributor Kit Parker. “But we quickly discover we can’t tell the robot monsters from the straight actors. This little number hit such an outrageous low that every moment of it is hilarious.”

Trouble the Water takes you inside Hurricane Katrina in a way never before seen on screen. It's a redemptive tale of two self-described street hustlers who become heroes-two unforgettable people who survive the storm and then seize a chance for a new beginning. The film opens the day before the storm makes landfall-twenty-four year old aspiring rap artist Kimberly Rivers Roberts is turning her new video camera on herself and her 9th Ward neighbors trapped in the city. "It's going to be a day to remember," Kim declares. With no means to leave the city and equipped with just a few supplies and her hi 8 camera, she and her husband Scott tape their harrowing ordeal as the storm rages, the nearby levee breaches, and floodwaters fill their home and their community. Seamlessly weaving 15 minutes of this home movie footage shot the day before and the day of the storm, with archival news segments and verite footage shot over two years, directors Tia Lessin and Carl Deal document a journey of remarkable people surviving not only failed levees, bungling bureaucrats and armed soldiers, but also their own past.
