"April 20, 1999 was a day that changed the world. Columbine High School was under attack by two of its own students: Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold. It has taken Sue Klebold, Dylan’s mother, twenty years to reconcile how the son she affectionately referred to as “Sunshine Boy” could willingly and knowingly be a school shooter. “If love could have stopped Columbine,” she says, “Columbine would never have happened.” After reading Dylan’s journal, Sue is surprised to learn that he was depressed and suicidal. Yet understanding that school shooters almost always suffer from common mental illnesses does not get us any closer to solving the problem. In fact, until now, it has only gotten us looking the wrong way. Sue’s story shows that what happened at Columbine is not just a rare and sensational event, but a particularly gruesome appendage to a much larger and more common tragedy.

With this poignant second feature, David Lynch brought his atmospheric visual and sonic palette to a notorious true story set in Victorian England. When the London surgeon Frederick Treves (Anthony Hopkins) meets the freak-show performer John Merrick (John Hurt), who has severe skeletal and soft-tissue deformities, he assumes that he must be intellectually disabled as well. As the two men spend more time together, though, Merrick reveals the intelligence, gentle nature, and profound sense of dignity that lie beneath his shocking appearance, and he and Treves develop a friendship. Shot in gorgeous black and white and boasting a stellar supporting cast that includes Anne Bancroft, John Gielgud, and Wendy Hiller, The Elephant Man was nominated for eight Academy Awards, cementing Lynch’s reputation as one of American cinema’s most visionary talents.

Legendary Hungarian animator Marcell Jankovics' kaleidoscopic masterwork following the endless battle between Adam, Eve and Lucifer through history. THE TRAGEDY OF MAN (AZ EMBER TRAGÉDIÁJA), 2011, Mozinet, 160 min. An incredible 23 years in the making, THE TRAGEDY OF MAN is the legendary Hungarian animator Marcell Jankovics's (SON OF THE WHITE MARE) sprawling, kaleidoscopic masterwork: a seemingly-endless animated scroll of gorgon-like demons, cave paintings that spring to life, barbarian warriors, bejeweled pharaohs, knights and martyrs and prophets bleeding together -- one brutal age dissolving into another and another, all of human history passing like pages in a child's flipbook. Adapted from the dramatic poem by 19th century author Imre Madách that's often compared to Goethe's Faust and Milton's Paradise Lost, THE TRAGEDY OF MAN is no ordinary cartoon: it's one of the most visually stunning and wildly ambitious animated epics ever made (and then some). Out of the galactic void at the beginning of the story emerges Lucifer the Devil, the Great Winged Bat, Anubis, the antagonist who adopts many faces and forms as it guides and manipulates the characters of Adam and Eve throughout history, searching for the purpose of human existence -- if there is one. Broken into 15 different episodes (the segments were produced one at a time by Jankovics as he cobbled together funding), each section has a different visual style, incorporating a mindblowing tapestry of world art, cultures, symbols, and rituals. In ancient Egypt, the bodies of slaves become the literal building blocks of the pyramids - in ancient Greece, the background shatters like broken pottery - in Rome, mosaics of gladiators come to life, slashing at each other - in the Middle Ages, arguing zealots are transformed into Orthodox churches, clashing against one another as they crumble. The sum total of Jankovics's cosmic vision of human "progress" is utterly surreal, psychedelic, operatic and Wagnerian: a breathtaking Hieronymus Bosch-like triptych of Hell on Earth, with brief glimpses of Grace and Love which may offer hope for the future.
