Bones on 35mm with director Ernest R. Dickerson

You found this. Be the first one here.

There was a shelf in the video store nobody's parents walked down, and whatever was on it got passed to you by an older cousin who swore you could handle it. For a lot of people that was this one: a haunted-house picture built on a Black neighborhood's memory of what got taken from it, starring Snoop Dogg as a ghost in a full-length fur, with Pam Grier in the house. It was dismissed on arrival in 2001 and has spent the years since becoming a genuine cult object. Now the man who shot Do the Right Thing and directed Juice is bringing it back on an actual 35mm print and standing up to talk about it. Ernest R. Dickerson is one of the most important cinematographers in American film and he does not do many of these. The print is the point - the reds in this movie were designed for film and have never looked right on a stream. The print screens Wednesday, October 21 at 7:30pm.
