Why Does the Wilhelm Scream?

The last in our DIFF Interview series: we sit down with 'Motherland' director Evan Matthews. Such a rewarding, vulnerable discussion. This film is one that raises so many issues and forces the viewer to ask themselves important questions. Watch this one over and over once it becomes available.

This was such a wonderful conversation with the filmmakers Biliana and Marina Grozdanova. 'Eastern Western' is a beautiful immigrant story--and so much more. It really was our honor to talk to these wonderful artists and people. 'Eastern Western' premiered at DIFF, so keep your eyes open for your chance to catch this at a theater or screener near you.

It's our final Driving While Screaming for the 2025 Oak Cliff Film Festival. It was a good festival (it always is), good slate of films. Some real standouts that we can't wait to watch again. If you were in attendance, we'd love to hear your thoughts on the festival, and any films you were impressed with. Talk to you soon...

Day three of the Oak Cliff Film Festival. We just spent twelve hours watching movies. We're tired; Brock's cranky. It's a tough job. Someone has to do it. You're welcome.

Part Two, Day Two. On the after portion of today's Driving While Screaming, we get into 'The Maya Deren Project,' a series of Deren's short films accompanied by a 10,000 Lakes live score. We also saw the scrappy, charming comedy, 'Lockjaw' directed by Sabrina Greco. Stay tuned for Day Three.
