Strange Culture (2007)
Important and timely work
10 January 2007 - 21 out of 23 users found this review helpful.
This film is a must see if you care or about the arts in the current political climate, or for that matter if you care about civil liberties in general.
Strange Culture is very different from Lynn Hershman's other work--a unique documentary/narrative hybrid. An amazing and surreal performance by Thomas Jay Ryan. Though there is an amazing cast, the real star is Steve Kurtz, the Buffalo artist who is the subject of the film. Steve's heartbreaking retelling of his wife's death, and his subsequent arrest and legal wranglings is must see for anyone who believes are government is beyond reproach.
This film is powerful, heart wrenching, and an outrageous indictment of the current state of political affairs.
