Strike A Pose @ #PIFF16

Posted on Categories queerguru.tvLabels ,

25 years a1go when Madonna embarked on her Blonde Ambition World Tour she took with a troupe of fabulous male dancers who added this whole tier of sensuality and extreme style to the show.  Now the ‘boys’ in their mid 40’s  look back at one of the very best years of their lives in this wonderful new documentary Strike A Pose. 

The movie is playing as the Closing Night Gala at Provincetown International Film Festival #PIFF16, and here is our review for P.T.V.



Suited @ #PIFF16

Posted on Categories queerguru.tvLabels ,

1This documentary is the story of Bindle and Keep a small tailoring company in New York who are part of whole new growing breed of clothiers who cater specifically for the transgender community.  It is a joyful tale of how having the opportunity to having non-gender specific custom-made clothing so impacts peoples lives. Directed by newbie filmmaker Jason Benjamin and produced by Lena Dunham, it is one of several transgender movies showing in Provincetown Film Festival.

Suited is one of queerguru’s Top Picks for #PIFF16 and this is our review for PTV .

Political Animals1 is a brand new documentary that tells the remarkable story of four extraordinary women who were the very first openly gay legislators in California. These brave pioneers had to contend with fierce and hostile opposition that often got very personal and nasty, but nevertheless managed to author Bills that started to change the lives of LGBT people and our community at large.  It’s a compelling story that not just details an important part of recent LGBT history, but reminds us how so very indebted we are so are to these phenomenal and selfless visionary women.

This truly wonderful film is a Spotlight Selection, and also one of our Top Picks,  for the upcoming Provincetown International Film Festival #PIFF. We are particularly psyched about this as before the Screening filmmaker Jonah Markowitz and one of the movie’s ‘stars’ Senator Carole Migden will be making tracks to PTV’s studio to talk to us about their very astonishing story.

Here is queerguru’s review of Political Animals for P.T.V. and keep watching  this space to see our interview very soon.

 



Uncle Howard @ #PIFF16

Posted on Categories queerguru.tvLabels ,

1Filmmaker Aaron Brookner set off to find the lost negatives of Howard Brookner’s 1983 definitive documentary of William S Burroughs. and in the course of his investigations discovered so much more about this dynamic and influential queer filmmaker who died of AIDS in 1989 aged 34 years who was also his Uncle Howard.  This compelling documentary was one of the best LGBT movies to surface at the Sundance Film Festival and is now one of our TOP PICKS playing at the Provincetown Film Festival.

Here as part of the coverage of PIFF16 that queerguru is doing on behalf of Provincetown TV (PTV) is both our review of UNCLE HOWARD and part of an interview we had with Aaron Brookner via Skype.
