| 24 Hours on Craigslist |
Dir. Michael Ferris Gibson US 2005
You know Craigslist-it's the secret engine that drives the Bay Area economy, the place you likely found your last job, apartment, car, couch, bandmate, dance lesson, bankruptcy attorney or Friday-night date. Everybody's got a Craigslist story, and filmmaker Michael Ferris Gibson came up with an ingenious idea to find a few of them: He set out to document one random day on Craigslist. What he delivers is a rollicking portrait of the Bay Area in all its eccentric glory - a cross section of folks selling everything from 250 pairs of women's army-surplus pants to everything-they-own (to finance a trip around the world); guys looking for roommates or wives; an Ethel Merman impersonator looking for a back-up band and a strange fellow hoping some hot chicks will show up for his basement sex party. Looking for a support group for your diabetic cat? Need to rent a husband, find a horny poodle, a gay sperm donor or a pre-op transsexual escort? Maybe you need a movie crew (That's right - Gibson's cast, crew and music were all found through Craigslist). There may be Craigslists all over the globe at this point, but Craigslist will always be a Bay Area creation, and Gibson's terrific movie is a giddy celebration of the Bay Area and everything we love and hate about it. Director present for Q & A at 7:15 shows on Thursday and Friday.
