"Charlottesville: Our Streets" premiers at the Virginia Film Festival
While I don’t usually post reviews of films I haven’t seen
yet, I have invited guest reviews on a Wordpress blog, and today I wanted to
share Rick Sincere’s review of “Charlottesville: Our Streets”, a documentary
shown Sunday Nov. 12 at the Virginia Film Festival in Charlottesville.
Here is the panel discussion:
Here is Rick’s review, at Bearing Drift. The film is
directed by Jackson Landers and Brian Wimer, and may be viewed as a work still being completed. Rick has the review on his own site here.
Landers also wrote the script.
This is record time for shooting a documentary on an event with some
catastrophic results (one death), as well as a shock to many people (like me)
who had not taken seriously the idea that “white supremacists” had been “organizing”.
I did attend Charlottesville gay pride on Sept. 16, a much
happier event, and much “nicer” people. Nearby, a half-mile away. the Robert E. Lee statue had already been covered.

The filmmakers tell me on Facebook that they are looking for
distribution channels, for both theatrical showing and DVD / streaming. I wonder if there will be a push for sponsors
for screenings (in homes, schools, condo rooms, etc). I expect to see the film as soon as it is available and provide my own detailed review on Wordpress. I would think this film would become a big draw in the indie documentary market.
