One of Queerguru’s all-time favorite events every single summer in Provincetown is our annual interview with the quick-witted and wickedly funny MISS RICHFIELD 1981.  After some 21 years as a headliner, Miss Richfield is now recognized as Provincetown Drag Royalty and she is always such a sheer joy to throw shade with.

 

She’ll be performing her new show BAD ADVICE at PTown’s PIlgrim House until mid-September: follow her on www.missrichfield1981.com to where she will pop up next.

The Canadian auteur Bruce LaBruce is one of the very best queer filmmakers:  part queercore, part queer punk, part pornographer …… (who actually hates labels…..), and who is always pushing the envelope with his work. He combines more conventional narrative and filmmaking techniques with his appetite interest for extreme topics, and many have explicit sexual content at a time when other filmmakers are no longer prepared to challenge the norm. LaBruce is a fearless creative and his influence and contribution to queer cinema is substantial and one of the reasons the Provincetown Film Festival honored him with their Filmmaker On The Edge Award

And why Queerguru jumped at the chance to sit down and talk with him: it’s not every day you get a chance to meet a queer icon ……



Academy Award winners Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman talk TAYLOR MAC and his excellent new concert film

Posted on Categories queerguru.tvLabels , , , , , ,

 

Taylor Mac’s 24 Decades History of Popular Music was a 24 Hour Marathon on Oct 8 – 9 2015 (noon to noon) at St Ann’s Warehouse New York was a highly anticipated event that was 5 years in the making and never to be repeated.  

This whole extraordinary masterpiece was filmed by Academy Award winners Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman who had the near-impossible task to edit the recording down to under 2 hours, and their combined efforts is now playing the film festival circuit before HBO screens it at the end of June.

At the Provincetown Film Festival, Epstein and Friedman talked to Querguru about Mac’s most powerful performance pieces that we think we have ever witnessed and surpass his very distinguished body of work to date.  One of the (many) awards he has gathered over the years is a MacArthur Genius Grant……its the description of genius that makes him so well qualified for this.

PS The Film will premiere on HBO on 6/27
