NERDS! Film nerds that is: The Bama Art House Flim Series


By bohicks - Posted on 03 June 2010

If liking off the beaten path quirky movies makes us film nerds, so be it. Based on the success of last years "Bama Art House film Series" this years event has grown even bigger. The Bama Art Film Series is a series of one night showings of independent and foreign films that rarely make it to the opulent shiny halls of the Cobb Hollywood 16. It's hard for a lot of these films to fight for screen space when you have such cinematic masterpieces as "MacGruber" and "Sex in The City 2" (*ed. note. "Sex in The City 2" runs only a scant 30 minutes shorter then "Schindler's List". We here at wellthatscool.com all agree that we would rather be shot three times in the junk with a pellet gun then have to sit through that stinker. That's two and a half hours of your life you can never get back.). The Bama will fill this cultural void over the next 8 weeks starting with Greenberg on Tuesday June 8th staring Ben Stiller and directed by Noah Baumbach. Noah Baumbach is known for his 1995 cult classic "Kicking and Screaming" and the critically acclaimed "The Squid and The Whale".(*ed note "The Squid and the Whale" sounds more like a "Mastodon" album than the touching story of two young boys dealing with their parents divorce in Brooklyn. Also the picture to the left has nothing to do with the movie - it's just awesome).

Each Tuesday Morning we will post a synopsis of that week's movie followed by our own movie reviewing maven Dosty Glory's review later in the week. For a complete list of films as well as ticket info please visit www.bamaarthouse.com.
