Oscar-winning Makeup Artist Lois Burwell discusses her fascinating career!
Lois Burwell makes faces. From the prosthetics that transformed Tim Curry into the Lord of Darkness in Legend to the war paint and wounds that won her an Oscar® for Braveheart to the realism of Almost Famous and Lincoln, she has proven her mastery in a career spanning over 50 years. Burwell's interest in makeup started at an early age. While attending dance classes in her native London, she started making up her fellow students for recitals. She got her first break when director Bill Forsyth hired her as the entire makeup department for his breakthrough film Gregory's Girl (1980). She first worked with prosthetics on Legend, followed by more fantastical work on films like The Princess Bride (1987), Who Framed Roger Rabbit (1988) and The Fifth Element (1997). In 1989, she made her first film with Mel Gibson, Air America (1990), followed by his Hamlet (also 1990) and her Oscar-winning work on Braveheart. Another important collaboration started in 1998 with her Oscar-nominated work on Steven Spielberg's Saving Private Ryan (1998). She's worked with him on six more films, including War of the Worlds (2005) and Lincoln. In addition to her Oscar, she has won awards from the Online Film & Television Association for The Fifth Element and Saving Private Ryan.

Award-winning Director-Producer Peter Byck discusses his 4-part documentary series, Roots So Deep (you can see the devil down there)" – available to rent at https://rootssodeep.org/. Click here to watch the trailer: https://youtu.be/3PpPmkSAiEw?si=97WSspyjHiyvs30O
Roots So Deep (you can see the devil down there) is a 4-part documentary series about inventive farmers and maverick scientists building a path to solving climate change with hooves, heart, and soil. Can an underutilized way to graze cattle that mimics the way bison once roamed the land help get farmers out of debt, restore our depleted soils, rebuild wildlife habitat, and draw down huge amounts of carbon? Cattle have been seen as eco-villains for a long time. What if they can help us revive rural economies and ecologies? One question looms over the whole series: even if science shows that the adaptive way to graze is better for the land and the farmers' pocketbooks, will the old-school farmers change, or will they adopt a different method?

With unprecedented access to Taiwan's sitting head of state, director Vanessa Hope investigates the election and tenure of Tsai Ing-wen, the first female president of Taiwan. Thorough, incisive, and bristling with tension, Invisible Nation is a living account of Tsai's tightrope walk as she balances the hopes and dreams of her nation between the colossal geopolitical forces of the U.S. and China. Hope's observational style captures Tsai at work in her country's vibrant democracy at home while seeking full international recognition of Taiwan's right to exist. At a time when Russia's invasion of Ukraine has demonstrated the ever-present threat of authoritarian aggression, Invisible Nation brings punctual focus to the struggle of Taiwan as it fights for autonomy and freedom from fear.

3-Time Oscar-winning filmmaker & Award-winning Author Mark J. Harris discusses his new book, "Misfits," an acclaimed collection of arresting short stories.
Following a kaleidoscopic array of characters adrift in a precarious world, Misfits grapples with the challenges of contemporary life, including climate change, inequality, uncertainty, and pain.
A depressed accountant stumbles on a teenage eco-terrorist in a parking garage; a middle-aged psychiatrist buys a drink for a seductive young artist during a flight delay; an out-of-work journalist recruits Chicano gangbangers to help a desperate tennis partner; a troubled biologist runs into J. Robert Oppenheimer in a Santa Fe hotel.
These fraught encounters all have unexpected and startling consequences. Despite their differences in age, background, and circumstance, the characters in Misfits share a common sense of dislocation and alienation. They struggle to find a sense of belonging and connection but ultimately discover unexpected sources of resilience and hope.
With its evocative portrayal of Los Angeles as a microcosm of contemporary society, Misfits offers a compelling exploration of the human condition in an unpredictable and rapidly changing world.

Renowned film critic Alonso Duralde discusses his new book, "Hollywood Pride: A Celebration of LGBTQ+ Representation and Perseverance in Film."
For generations, members of the LGBTQ+ community in Hollywood needed to be discreet about their lives, but make no mistake, they were everywhere, both in front of and behind the camera. With Hollywood Pride, renowned film critic Alonso Duralde presents a history spanning from the dawn of cinema through the "pansy craze" of the 1930s and the New Queer Cinema of the 1990s, all the way up to today. He showcases the hard-working actors, writers, directors, producers, cinematographers, art directors, and choreographers whose achievements defined the American film industry and charts the evolution of LGBTQ+ storytelling itself—the way mainstream Hollywood decided it would portray (or erase) their lives and the narratives created by queer filmmakers who fought to tell those stories themselves.
Illustrated with more than 175 full-color and black-and-white images, Hollywood Pride points to the bright future of LGBTQ+ representation in cinema by revealing the story of the community's inclusion and erasure, its visibility and invisibility, and its triumphs and tragedies.
