ON SCREEN

My childhood days were spent in my grandmother’s house along with my siblings, first cousins, my grandmother and her four daughters, my aunts. A breach of discipline was met quickly and dealt with by the mother or nearest available aunt, in old-world family style. Misbehavior often banished the minor offender to solitary confinement, to sit alone on the couch, where you could watch everyone play but not participate.
There was a midday movie shown around three o’clock in the afternoon. It showed great movies from the thirties and forties, many of which my aunts never got the chance to see. So, the twelve-inch Philco Television set was turned on. I spent a lot of time on the couch. I watched a lot of movies.
I have a deep love for the art of stories told in moving pictures and have taught film genre and appreciation courses. When the opportunity to make films presented itself, I thought it the natural progression. Guided by some very talented shooters and cutters, I learned while doing.
