Enjoy this clip of George Kuchar’s “Hold Me While I’m Naked” (and we suggest you seek out the entire short film). **********George Kuchar, and his brother Mike, made underground movies without a map, before “underground movies” was a thing. The Kuchars were key players in New York’s nascent, subversive underground/experimental film movement, and were a formative influence on John Waters. Mr. Waters said the Kuchars “gave me the self-confidence to believe in my own tawdry vision.” ********************** They used 8mm, 16mm and (later) video cameras, non-professional actors and utilized their surroundings to make fascinating art. ******************KHLOARIS should note that you’re looking at this post on a device with a much more powerful camera than the Kuchar brothers had when they started. If you’re finding yourself cooped up around the apartment with your partner, your family or your roommates for some reason, maybe it’s time to explore your own “tawdry vision” (and make sure to send us the results). ***************** #kuchar #kucharbrothers #georgekuchar #mikekuchar #johnwaters #undergroundfilm #experimentalmovies #diy #diyfilm #tawdry #tawdryvision #cellphonefilmmaking #holdmewhileimnaked #makeamovietoday (at Aphrodite's Rock, Cyprus) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-Fdi60DyQf/?igshid=1gznk16s19nj9
