Revelation Perth is wrapping up ripping it up Down Under today. Or, it may have just concluded by the time you read this — the time difference thing always makes me crazy. Anyway, there’s been loads of press for the event. SBS interviewed filmmaker Richard Wolstencroft about his provocative new documentary The Last Days of Joe Blow that just World Premiered at Rev. (They give him a good grilling.) (Photo above is from the doc.)
Then, at Fandor, Jonathan Marlow interviews filmmaker Joshua Oppenheimer about his controversial film The Act of Killing, which has played Rev and lots of other underground fests so far this year.
I find myself really digging Joe Dante’s Trailers From Hell lately. I make it a point to never miss the new ones now. Most of ’em are fantastic mini film history lessons that I learn a lot from.
