| 11.11.16 | Internet | This Screening is part of event: DVRfest 2016 Well... I THOUGHT I was going to watch a doc about Frank Dux, famously portrayed by Jean Claude Van Damme in the movie Bloodsport, but I guess that video was removed from youtube since last night, so instead I watched another doc I've had saved for quite some time. Flyin' Cut Sleeves is about 1970s gangs from The Bronx... basically the source material for the movie The Warriors. The production is pretty rough/amateur but the subjects are real and the subject matter strikes that nerve for me so I liked it. I still find that era fascinating in a hard to believe way... like remember that time that the biggest city in America almost went bankrupt and whole parts of the city were neglected to the point where kids roamed the streets like wild dogs? haha yeah, good times. Up next is one more doc (this year is pretty documentary-heavy... A triple feature today and a planned double feature on Sunday), this one presumably flyin' long sleeves (man, i love that title) but also sporting a helmet. |
