Sunday, March 28th, 2004Plexifilm. I’ve seen Slow Century, a film about Pavement, Friends Forever, a film about, well, Friends Forever, I Am Trying to Break Your Heart, a film about Wilco and now Hell House, a freaky look into American Christian fundamentalist ignorance and fear mongering and they are all excellent. I have plans to see pretty much everything else Plexifilm is putting out including the early 80’s graf documentary Style Wars, the Sun Ra documentary Space is the Place, Ciao! Manhattan, Decasia, the Maysles’ 5 Films about Christo & Jean Claude.
