After twelve years of keeping her childhood sexual abuse a secret, a twenty-year-old girl, Karinah Guzman battles with the psychological aftermath. Seeing a therapist only accelerates torturous flashbacks of a past filled with tears and fear. Karinah's emotions become so bottled up inside that anxiety begins to take over her life in a way that drives her deeper into a perilous depression. Chasing in and out of flashbacks and nightmares exposes a story of habitual sexual abuse and the residual effects it has on Karinah's life. After suspecting that her younger cousin is now a victim of the same abuse, Karinah finds the strength, courage and faith, and reveals her lifelong secret that quickly divides the family. This harrowing film tells an everyday story but transforms it into a nightmare within the mind.

Plot
Using flashbacks from a statement recorded late in life and archival footage for atmosphere, this film traces Harvey Milk's career from his 40th birthday to his death. He leaves the closet and New York, opens a camera shop that becomes the salon for San Francisco's growing gay community, and organizes gays' purchasing power to build political alliances. He runs for office with lover Scott Smith as his campaign manager. Victory finally comes on the same day Dan White wins in the city's conservative district. The rest of the film sketches Milk's relationship with White and the 1978 fight against a statewide initiative to bar gays and their supporters from public school jobs.

David Kirmani,a medical professional, lives in an apartment with his sweetheart, Erica Bain, a radio host, and his dog. They usually take the dog out for a stroll in nearby Central Park and let him run and fetch. One day while at the park they let the dog run without a leash, and when he does not return or respond to their calls, they frantically search for him. They eventually find him being held by three men who want a reward. When David refuses, they start to molest Erica and David intervenes. Two of the men assault the couple, while the third uses a camcorder to film this incident. Erica is knocked unconscious, and regains her senses several days later in a hospital. She is told the shocking news that David was killed and the dog is missing. A traumatized Erica returns home to try and regain her life. She also visits the police station but does not get much help.

[first lines]::Erica: [voiceover, doing her radio show] I'm Erica Bain. And as *you* know, I walk the city. I bitch and moan about it. I walk and watch and listen, a witness to all the beauty and ugliness that is disappearing from our beloved city. Last week took me to the gray depths of the East River where Dmitri Panchenko swims his morning laps, like he has every morning since the 1960s. And today I walked by the acres of scaffolding outside what used to be the Plaza Hotel. And I thought about Eloise. Remember Kay Thompson's Eloise? Eloise who lived in the Plaza Hotel with her dog Weenie, and her parents were always away, and her English nanny who had eight hair pins made out of bones. That Eloise. The adored brat of my childhood. [indistinct overdubs for a few lines here]... li'l punk kids... Sid Vicious spewing beer from his teeth in the Chelsea Hotel... Andy Warhol, his sunglasses reflecting... Edgar Allan Poe, freeing live monkeys from the crates of a crumbling schooner on the oily slips of South Street. Stories of a city that is disappearing before our eyes, its people swept over the Williamsburg of those stories. So what are we left of those stories? Are we going to have to construct an imaginary city to house our memories? Because when you love something, every time a bit goes, you lose a piece of yourself. Where's Eloise going to sleep tonight? Can you hear her ghost wandering around the collapsing corridors of her beloved Plaza, trying to find her nanny's room? Calling out to the construction workers, in a voice that nobody hears, "Has anyone seen my turtle, Skipperdee?" This is Erica Bain, and you've been listening to Streetwalk, on WKNW.
Erica: I always believed that fear belonged to other people. Weaker people. It never touched me. And then it did. And when it touches you, you know... that it's been there all along. Waiting beneath the surfaces of everything you loved.
Erica: Open the door.::Crazy in the car: Uh-oh. We got us a super-cunt here.::Erica: Open the door, or I'll be the last super-cunt you'll ever see.

King Corn (2007)
Actors
Plot
King Corn is a feature documentary about two friends, one acre of corn, and the subsidized crop that drives our fast-food nation. In King Corn, Ian Cheney and Curt Ellis, best friends from college on the east coast, move to the heartland to learn where their food comes from. With the help of friendly neighbors, genetically modified seeds, and powerful herbicides, they plant and grow a bumper crop of America's most-productive, most-subsidized grain on one acre of Iowa soil. But when they try to follow their pile of corn into the food system, what they find raises troubling questions about how we eat-and how we farm

You are what you eat
Quotes:
Ian Cheney: When my best friend Curtis and I graduated from college, we thought we were done with professors and were supposed to feel like we had our whole lives ahead of us.::Curt Ellis: But we just heard some disconcerting news: some day, we were going to die - and maybe sooner than we thought. The first time in American history, our generation was at risk of having a shorter life-span than our parents. And it was because of what we ate.
Ian Cheney: [their 1 acre has been planted] Planting 31,000 seeds was not exactly a hands-on experience. But then again, it only took us 18 minutes.
Michael Pollan: What you're growing is an industrialized corn. It has been changed over the last 20, 30, 40, 50 years with one goal in mind, which is yield. The way it was done was, not to make every plant produce more so much, as to make the plants tolerate living close together. This plant is kind of an "urban" creature; it lives in these cities of corn. We're now up to close to 200 bushels of corn per acre. That's what, 10,000 pounds? 5 tons of food from 1 acre of land. It's an amazing amount of food!
Michael Pollan: If you're standing in a field in Iowa, there's an immense amount of food being grown, none of it edible. The commodity corn... nobody can eat it. It must be processed before we can eat it. It's a raw material, it's a feed-stock for all these other processes. And the irony is that an Iowa farmer can no longer feed himself.
Ian Cheney: It was already clear that when the time came to say goodbye to the corn from our acre, we would never know exactly where it would end up. After the crop is delivered to the elevator, following corn into the food system becomes a game of probability. Of the 10,000 pounds of corn our acre is likely to produce, 32% will be either exported or turned into Ethanol. In neither case ending up in our food. Or in our hair. But 490 pounds will become sweeteners, like high fructose corn syrup. And more than half our crop, a full 5,500 pounds, will be feed to animals to become meat.
Curt Ellis: The corn fed to cattle is supplemented with low doses of antibiotics, that help them combat acidosis. Live stock now consumes 70% of the antibiotics in the United States.
Loren Cordain: The meat that we eat in this day and age is produced in a feed lot. It's grain-fed meat, and we produce a characteristically obese animal, animals whose muscle tissue looks more like fat tissue than it does lean meat in wild animals. And if you look at a T-bone steak from a grain-fed cow, it may have as much as 9 grams of saturated fat. Whereas a comparable steak from a grass-fed animal would have 1.3 grams of saturated fat.
Walter Willet: One great changes in the American food supply during the last 20 years is that we are now drinking many more calories than we were before. And there does seem to be something about drinking calories, in the form of soda for example, that just doesn't generate the stop signals.
Ian Cheney: We've heard from some people that they think there is too much food.::Earl L. Butz: Well it's the basis of our affluence now, the fact that we spend less on food. It's America's best-kept secret. We feed ourselves with approximately 16 or 17% of our take home pay. That's marvelous, that's a very small chunk to feed ourselves. And that includes all the meals we eat at restaurants, all the fancy doodads we get in our food system. I don't see much room for improvement there, which means we'll spend our surplus cash on something else.
[last lines]::Curt Ellis: We are wondering if there's anyway you'd let us try and raise the money to actually buy that acre.::Pyatt: Ah ha ha ha. You guys, you're gonna starve this country.

Burnt Money, is set in Argentina in 1965. This true story follows the tumultuous relationship between two men who became lovers and ultimately ruthless bank robbers in a notoriously famous footnote in the annals of Argentinian crime history. Nene, Angel and Cuervo are bank robbers who flee from Argentina across the border to Uruguay after a large-scale hold-up that turns bloody. Angel is hurt and the three must lay low until Angel recovers. Nene and Angel are known to everyone they know as "the twins" because of their resemblance, but the two are not brothers at all - they are involved in a steamy homosexual relationship. To get back to Argentina, the group must first wait for Fontana, the brains behind the robbery, to arrange for passports. Anxious from hiding, Cuervo decides to break curfew and go party.

_Confession, The (1990)_ (qv) survives in _Parajanov: The Last Spring (1992)_ (qv) in its original camera negative. It remained unfinished due to the death of 'Sergei Parajanov' (qv). _Confession, The (1990)_ (qv) was his favorite screenplay, which was written in the 1960s and was his film-memory of the childhood, student years, marriage, imprisonment and more as the fantasist Parajanov perceived it. Parajanov gifted the screenplay to 'Mikhail Vartanov' (qv), made a drawing on the cover and wrote: "The Confession will only be made by a director born in 1924 in Tiflis, Georgia." He predicted that he would not finish it.

William F. 'Buffalo Bill' Cody: My daddy was killed trying to keep slavery out of Kansas.::Oswald Dart: How did he do that?::William F. 'Buffalo Bill' Cody: Well, my daddy hated slavery with such a passion that rather than let the coloreds get in as slaves, he just fought to keep 'em out of the state.
William F. 'Buffalo Bill' Cody: Where were ya?::William Halsey: It's the first of the moon.::Nate Salisbury: That's not what Buffalo Bill asked ya! Now where in the hell have you been?::William Halsey: During the first day of the first moon, Sitting Bull visits the sun in the mountains while his squaws move the teepees to the moon path.::Nate Salisbury: Damn it, Halsey! Stop sunning and mooning us! Now where the hell have you been?
President Grover Cleveland: Where will you sleep, Buffalo Bill?::Ed Goodman: You can sleep with me, Uncle Will.::William F. 'Buffalo Bill' Cody: No, Ed, I will sleep out on the prairie underneath the moon and listen to the lullaby of the coyotes. You see, I ain't always been a comfortable man.::President Grover Cleveland: You know, it's a man like that that made this country what it is today!
Maj. John M. Burke: Don't worry about how you feel about where you ought to be... just come on over here where you should be.
William Halsey: Great Father, Sitting Bull has waited to ask you a very simple thing for his people.::President Grover Cleveland: Mr. Halsey, I remind you that in government, nothing is simple.
[explaining why Sitting Bull should be in Buffalo Bill's show]::Ned Buntline: A rock ain't a rock once it becomes gravel.
William F. 'Buffalo Bill' Cody: The difference between a white man and an injun in all situations is that an injun is red. And an injun is red for a very good reason. So we can tell us apart.
Crutch: Come here, Mr. Buntline! Come over here and look at Sitting Bull! The son-of-a-bitch must be seven feet tall!::Ned Buntline: He's getting smaller every year.
Ned Buntline: I bring up this dream business because, well, because things are beginning to take on an unreal shape. Now I was thinking about Sitting Bull. Just put yourself in that Injun's place. You sit in your tepee and dream. And then yu go to wherever the dream may take you... it might come true. And you wait for real life to catch up.
Ned Buntline: Injuns gear their lives to dreams. And what an injun dreams, no matter how farfetched, will wait until he dies to come true. The white men - they're different. The only time they dream is when things are going their way. I'm no expert on the subject, but it seems to me that what Sitting Bull does is a hell of a lot cheaper than mounting a wild west show... which is dreaming out loud.

Pip, a good-natured, gullible young orphan, lives with kind blacksmith Joe Gargery and his bossy, abusive wife 'Mrs. Joe'. When the boy finds two hidden escaped galley convicts, he obeys under -probably unnecessary- threat of a horrible death to bring the criminals food he must steal at peril of more caning from the battle-ax. Just when Pip fears to get it really good while they have guests, a soldier comes for Joe who takes Pip along as assistant to work on the chains of escaped galley-convicts, who are soon caught. The better-natured one takes the blame for the stolen food. Later Pip is invited to became the playmate of Estelle, the equally arrogant adoptive daughter of gloomy, filthy rich Miss Havisham at her estate, who actually has 'permission' to break the kind kid's heart; being the only pretty girl he ever saw, she wins his heart forever, even after a mysterious benefactor pays trough a lawyer for his education and a rich allowance, so he can become a snob in London, by now 'ashamed' of simple Joe. Only after years in idle wealth, Pip learns Havisham is not his benefactor as he assumed, and both her story and those of his real sponsor and Estelle...

(Hook)
Relations are what we are living for.
Relations, they are not always for long.
Relations, among the stars in the sky.
Relations, sometimes they end; you cry.
SHE LOVES HER DOG
HE LOVES CATS
They're your friends.
I love you. And I know, that is true.
Don't you see, baby?
(Hook)
Relations, for business or just for fun.
Relations, sometimes only for one night.
Relations, among the stars in the sky.
Relations, sometimes they end; you cry.
They end; you cry!
(Repeat chorus, twice)
Get up and dance
I'm in the mood for love
I wanna see you rise and shine
On revelation's day
We're about to explore
About to ignore
In such an easy way
It's the perfect cure in a perfect world
On revelation's day
I'm free
At last I'm free
I'm free
At last I'm free
You can't judge me
Cause you don't know me
Get up and dance
I'm in the mood for love
I reveal your insecurity
On revelation's day
You're hanging in a puppetstring
Let me relief your pain
You're the driving force
In an overkill
On revelation's day
I'm free
At last I'm free
I'm free
At last I'm free
You can't judge me
Cause you don't know me
The gravity changes
Wants your love
At last I'm free
I'm free
At last I'm free
I'm free
At last I'm free
