WHATEVER HAPPENED TO BABY JANE?
DIR: Robert Aldrich, SCR: Lukas Heller, 1962, USA, 35mm, 134 min.
Move over Freddie and Jason! Cinema's greatest battling monsters are back in black-and-white, and their battle royal is twice as terrifying, and five times as fabulous. Cinema legends Bette Davis and Joan Crawford shine ... well, flicker, as washed-up showbiz sisters, living in a spooky old house in Robert Aldrich's savage camp classic. Wizened old child-star "Baby" Jane Hudson (Bette), beyond bitter about her lost career, "cares" for invalid ex-actress sister Blanche (Joan) whom she blames for all her misfortunes. Their repartee is to die for, and Jane's special diet and exercise programs become more and more ... extreme as the twisted sisters quickly spiral downward in a high-pitched drama of dysfunction, madness and bitchery. An unforgettable valentine to faded glamour, tawdry Hollywood and one-liners that hit home like a kick in the ribs. Not to be missed!

I LOVE YOU NO MORE (JE T’AIME MOI NON PLUS)
DIR/SCR: Serge Gainsbourg, 1976, France, 35 mm, 90 min.
One of the legendary touchstones of transgressive '70s Euro-cinema! Director/singer/actor Serge Gainsbourg and his wife, actress Jane Birkin, were the prime proponents of a bohemian, hedonistic lifestyle in Europe during the '70s, extolling the virtues of everything from free love and bisexuality to bacchanalian drinking and drugging. Here Gainsbourg helms one of his most infamous pictures, relating the funny, irreverent, sometimes tender, sometimes brutal tale of two freewheeling gay garbagemen in the French countryside and what happens when one of them falls for a boyish-looking truck stop waitress. Krassky (Joe Dallesandro), finding himself suddenly obsessed with the androgynous waif Johnny (Jane Birkin), alienates his lover/co-worker Padovan (Hugues Quester) and love triangle pyrotechnics, as well as scorching eroticism, follows. Be sure to keep your eyes peeled for Gérard Depardieu in a cameo as a very odd country bumpkin with a thing for his horse

JUCHITÁN QUEER PARADISE
DIR: Patricio Henriquez, 2003, Mexico/Canada, video, subtitled, 64 min.
In this remarkable town in Oaxaca, Mexico, gays are accepted as simply a third sex. If a boy appears to be gay, his family considers it a joyful blessing; a man wanting to be a woman need only dress like a woman to be treated as such. This is not a modern social achievement, but an acceptance that has existed for generations. According to local legend, God gave Juchitán’s patron saint a bag full of homosexuals so he could leave one in each Latin American town. However, when the saint arrived there, all the homosexuals spilled out, creating this unique queer paradise. Patricio Henriquez’ extraordinary documentary presents a vivid portrait of a community where diversity is accepted and integrated in community life.
