Galaxy's End: Revenge Of The Myth Screening Posted By Dustin on May 8, 2006
This just in from Fad Productions.
The Hoboken Digital Film Society will relaunch its film screening series on Thursday, May 11, 2006 at 8 p.m. with the documentary Galaxy's End: Revenge of the Myth at Symposia Bookstore, 510 Washington St., Hoboken. Galaxy's End: Revenge of the Myth was produced and directed by Jeff Cioletti, the new organizer of the film screening series. The documentary focuses on Star Wars fans as they bid farewell to the big-screen film saga. Seven years ago, fans were giddy with anticipation for the Prequel trilogy, but now that there aren't any new theatrical films to look forward to, the mood is considerably more somber, notes Cioletti. And it didn't help that Episodes I to III didn't live up to some fans unrealistically high expectations. Whether you loved the prequels or hated them, Galaxy's End: Revenge of the Myth hopefully will offer a little closure at the end of an era. The film features original music by acclaimed composer Jim Briggs III. The Star Wars universe is familiar territory for Cioletti. His first documentary, Millennium's End: The Fandom Menace chronicled fans anticipation for Star Wars Episode I during the two years leading up to its release. It's only fitting that his new film should cover the aftermath. The two films are sort of bookends for the Prequel era, Cioletti explains. Additionally, Cioletti co-wrote, co-directed and co-produced the award-winning Star Wars parody trilogy, Silent But Deadly with collaborator Lou Tambone. The first film in the trilogy screened at the Cannes Film Festival last May. Cioletti's other films include the documentaries Chronotrip, UnWound and InkSwell. The Hoboken Digital Film Society screening series will continue at Symposia on a bi-weekly basis.
