If anyone plans to be in Durham next week for the Full Frame Documentary Film Festival, give me a holler off-line if you'd like to visit the newly opened Durham Cinematheque and see the inaugural show, "CARDS: ALMOST TWO DECKS." Location is right there at the festival, next to the Armory. There is also a small exhibition of projectors, magic lantern slides and cinematic ephemera (think Polavision, a projector made by Psychotechnics, etc.)
And if you happen to be coming one day early I will be screening my new show FILMISTORY.2 on Wednesday night, April 11th. This is a rambunctious program featuring more than 20 films 100+ years old, a Review of American Presidents (up to a certain point), a runaway horse, two English cathedrals, and riffs on Potemkin. This is a 50 minute show, three screens, 16mm, seating is limited and reservations are required. Durham Cinematheque is a one person organization and it has been housed in my basement until now. Under this moniker I've done about 80 shows since 1991 in a variety of locations in Bull City. No website, only bricks and mortar and acetate cellulose for now. - Tom Whiteside Durham, North Carolina
