3 Short Movies by Joseph Dwyer.

Accompanied by a curated hour-long program of dark, odd, confusing motion pictures.

Joseph Dwyer makes movies that simultaneously critique and pay homage to past genres in cinematic history. Wisdom Teeth is a 16mm experimental nod to German Expressionist film of the 1920’s. Dwyer reached a 1950’s mood by 2012 with The Diddler, an examination of 50’s American motion picture aesthetics, in particular Alfred Hitchcock Presents. Most recently, he has completed a picture resembling the 1970’s feel of the Italian giallo film, breaking away from monochrome into bright, saturated, primary color intensity with “Good Evening, Officer Bracelitz”—Starring Maxine Holloway, Siouxsie Q and Jordan Smith.

 Accompanying the three shorts will be an hour-long program of 10 more short pictures made over the past few years by friends and colleagues including:

Ricky Camilleri

Frank Difficult

Dave Fischer

Devon Kelley

Laura Maxfield

and Juan Pablo Pacheco
