Part One of this series is about the origin of the Robert Beck Memorial Cinema (Rbmc). Part Two covers all the screenings in 1998.
Continuing into 1999 at the Collective Unconscious theater space in NYC, the Rbmc — co-programmed by Brian L. Frye and Bradley Eros — went on hiatus for the first week of the year, but resumed on January 12. Below is a list of screenings from then until a May 18 event that celebrated the Rbmc’s first full year of existence.
The films and filmmakers selected to screen by Frye and Eros represent an interesting time in the sphere of avant-garde and experimental cinema. Up until this point, there seemed to be a distinct separation between the formal style of, say, structuralism, and the more raucous, punk rock world of the “underground.” However, in the 1990s, these two worlds appear to be colliding. The Rbmc seemed just as content screening Hollis Frampton‘s Critical Mass (Feb.

Dec. 4
8:00 p.m.
Millennium Film Workshop
66 East 4th St.
New York, New York 10003
Hosted by: Film-Makers’ Cooperative
Once again, the Millennium Film Workshop is hosting its annual December benefit screening and party to help benefit its fellow cinema institution, the Film-Makers’ Cooperative.
The Coop had a rough 2009 after being kicked out of its longtime home at the Clocktower Gallery, but soon settled nicely into its new location at 475 Park Ave. thanks solely to the generosity of real estate maven Charles S. Cohen.
While hopefully serious disastrous situations like that aren’t regular occurances, small cultural organizations these days need as much help as they can get, so if you’re in NYC think about going to support this phenomenal, scrappy and important institution.
I don’t have specific titles of films that will be screening at this event, there will be a program of recent films and videos deposited...
