Content Inside: CINSSU wishes to thank the following groups for their help and support of Free Friday Films. SAC ASSU Innis Town Hall CINSSU FREE FRIDAY FILM February Schedule Winter 2005 February 4 th , 2005. (Black History Month Screening) Freestyle: The Art of Rhyme (2000) USA, directed by Kevin Fitzgerald. 60 minutes, digital beta. From neighborhood cyphers to the most notorious MC battles, "Freestyle: the Art of Rhyme" captures the elec- trifying energy of improvisational rap -- the rarely- recorded art form of rhyming spontaneously. Like preach- ers and jazz solos, freestyles exist only in the moment; a modern day incarnation of the African-American storytel- ling tradition. Shot over a period of more than seven years, "Freestyle: the Art of Rhyme" is already an underground cult film in the hip-hop world. The film systematically debunks the false image put out by re- cord companies that hip-hop culture is violent or money-obsessed. Instead, it lets real hip-hop artists, known and unknown, weave their story out of a pas- sionate mix of language, politics and spirituality. – IMDB.com February 4 th , 2005. (Black History Month Screening) Graffiti Verité (1995) USA, directed by Bob Bryan. 45 minutes, digital beta. Graffiti Verité is a 45 minute groundbreaking documen- tary that includes interviews and behind the scenes views of 24 of Los Angeles most prolific and talented graffiti artists. Its conversations vary from comparative discussions on graffitis ancestral connection to ritualistic hieroglyphics and cave writings to discussions of graffiti art as a form of "street-level" propaganda and public art gallery for the anonymous public. From street art to gallery art showings, Graffiti Verité forces us to re-think about our cultural reality as well as to expose us to more cutting edge graffiti art than has even been seen be- fore in one venue. –graffitiverite.com Screenings begin at 7:00 PM in Innis College Town Hall - 2 Sus ...
