MFA Students Pick Some Films for Us to Watch
Directed by Macoto Tezuka
With Shingo Kubota, Kan Takagi, Kiyohiko Ozaki
Not Rated, 100 minutes, DCP
In Japanese with English subtitles
With a scheduled introduction by Kiprop Kimutai!
Taking inspiration from Phantom of the Paradise and The Rocky Horror Picture Show, Macoto Tezuka (son of manga legend Osamu Tezuka) and friends transformed the soundtrack to a movie that didn't exist into a real-life motion picture—and hence The Legend of the Stardust Brothers was born! The story follows a shady music mogul who brings together a punk and a new-waver to form the Stardust Brothers, who become a silver-jumpsuited, synth-pop sensation. A wild cult hit in Japan, this newly-restored, unsung gem has a chance to hit the big screen for the first time in decades.
Free for ND, SMC, HC, IUSB, and High School students.
Co-presented by the Creative Writing Department and the Meg and John P. Brogan Endowment for Classic Cinema.
