A Forbidden Orange

A documentary examining the decade of the 1970s as a turning point in American cinema. Some of today's best filmmakers interview the influential directors of that time.

A chronicle of the long career of American filmmaker Roger Corman, the most tenacious and ingenious low-budget producer and director in the US film industry, a pioneer of independent filmmaking and discoverer of new talent.

In 1972, a seemingly typical shoestring budget pornographic film was made in a Florida hotel: "Deep Throat," starring Linda Lovelace. This film would surpass the wildest expectation of everyone involved to become one of the most successful independent films of all time. It caught the public imagination which met the spirit of the times, even as the self-appointed guardians of public morality struggled to suppress it, and created, for a brief moment, a possible future where sexuality in film had a bold artistic potential. This film covers the story of the making of this controversial film, its stunning success, its hysterical opposition along with its dark side of mob influence and allegations of the on set mistreatment of the film's star.

Exuberant, eye-opening movie that serves up a dazzling hundred-year history of the role of gay men and lesbians have had on the silver screen. Film contains fabulous footage from 120 films showing the changing face of cinema sexuality, from cruel stereotypes to covert love to the activist triumphs of the 1990s.

Taking inspiration from Peter M. Bracke's definitive book of the same name, this seven-hour documentary dives into the making of all twelve Friday the 13th films, with all-new interviews from the cast and the crew.

“Kuantum fiziği gibi bir durum bu: İnsanlar filmi izlerken film değişmeye başlıyor.”(Yönetmen) Bir çok kült filmin radikal yorumları vardır ama hiç birisi bu konuda Stanley Kubrick’in filmi Cinnet’inin (1980) eline su dökemez herhalde. 237 No’lu Oda, Kubrick’in belki de en çok tartışılan filminin altında yatan gizli anlamları, tuhaf sembolleri ve şifreleri çözdüğünü iddia eden bir grup (belki biraz kaçık ve fazlasıyla meraklı) sinefille tanıştırıyor bizi. Cinnet’i baştan sona didik didik eden, onu hiç akla gelmeyecek biçimlerde yeniden düşünmeye sevk eden 237 No’lu Oda bizi hem ikna edici, hem de kışkırtıcı ve tuhaf teorilerle başbaşa bırakıyor. Rodney Ascher, Cinnet’ten aldığı parçalarla bu teorileri ustaca bir araya getirirken bir yandan da günümüzün sinefil kültürünün muhteşem bir portresini çiziyor. 237 No’lu Oda hiç abartısız senenin en keyifli, en kült olmayı hakeden seyirliklerinden birisi.
