The House of Sweet Magic is a great DVD compilation (as has already been mentioned) - both in terms of being technically a very high quality transfer from the 16mm, and being a wonderful selection of films.
the 10 films on the DVD are also available to rent from the Harvard Film Archive, on one specially re-mastered 16mm reel. last time i screened it (two years ago) it cost $150 to rent. HFA also have Helen Hill/Paul Gailiunas' last film, The Florestine Collection, on 16mm. it's a wonderful and moving film, a mixture of archive covering the period around the New Orleans hurricane , and animation. it's about half an hour long. i've screened the Florestine Collection alongside some of Helen Hill's shorts more than once, which (obviously) go together very well into a programme if anyone is considering screening Helen Hill's films, i have poster designs and can send you the hi-res artwork - tiny jpegs of them here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/special_photos/6543274521/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/special_photos/5283651294/ Date: Fri, 27 Sep 2013 14:01:43 -0700 From: filmmakersc...@gmail.com To: criticalplural...@yahoo.com; frameworks@jonasmekasfilms.com Subject: Re: [Frameworks] Helen Hill films?
