We recently added “Photographic Memory” to the DBRL collection. The film currently has a rating of 94% from critics at Rotten Tomatoes and is the latest from director Ross McElwee who also directed the films “Sherman’s March“ and “Bright Leaves“. Here’s a synopsis from our catalog:

Filmmaker Ross McElwee finds himself in frequent conflict with his son, a young adult who seems addicted to and distracted by the virtual worlds of the internet. To understand his fractured love for his son, McElwee travels back to St. Quay-Portrieux for the first time in decades to retrace his own journey into adulthood. A meditation on the passing of time, the praxis of photography and film, and the digital versus analog divide.

We recently added My Architect to the DBRL collection. The film was nominated for a 2003 academy award, and has received some good reviews from critics and audiences. Here’s a synopsis from our catalog:

Nathaniel Kahn documents the life and works of his father, Louis Kahn. Louis Kahn had an “official” family, including his wife Esther and daughter Sue Ann. He had two other secret families: with fellow architect Anne Tyng he had a daughter, Alexandra, and with his colleague Harriet Pattison he had Nathaniel.
