The Faculty

Dec 25, 1998
Herrington High est une école comme les autres. Ses murs sont devenus peu à peu crasseux, ses manuels scolaires périmés, ses professeurs paraissent usés bien avant la retraite, ses élèves, cerveaux et crétins, sérieux ou cancres notoires, affrontent des parents qui ne les comprennent plus et des professeurs qui ne les ont jamais compris. Mais les adolescents de Herrington High se heurtent à un problème inédit. Un de leurs professeurs est tellement bizarre et inquiétant qu'ils le soupçonnent d'appartenir à une autre espèce, de venir d'une autre planète...

Jonathan Demme Presents Made In Texas
1
Made In Texas: six films culled by Jonathan Demme on a visit to the Lone star State prove not only that independent features are alive and living on the Third Coast but they can outrun those by New York and Los Angeles indies. D. Boone's Invasion of the Aluminum People, a 45 minute super-8 extravaganza (possibly processed in a washing machine) is a video/film/music/jumpcut glaze by this tyro Godard who seems to be sired by Godard out of Don Siegel. Brian Hansen's' Speed of Light, is a New Wave melodrama that's as good looking as Written on the Wind. Carrie Rickey
