Kids I n The Hall Cathy with a "C", Kathy with a "K" Canada video 100 mins. Sponsorec B. Ruby Rich will be on hand at the Friday, October 8th showing. Kids in the Hall is a young Toronto comedy team with a penchant for drag, gender-bending, and some of the most outrageous pro-homo skits ever beamed over the airwaves. They are also one of network TV's best kept secrets (their CBS series airs at 2:00 a.m.), although this hasn't stopped them from developing a loyal cult following. If you're new to Kids, or a die-hard fan, join us for an energetic tribute ro American TV's best TVs. Critic and admitted fan B. Ruby Rich introduces you to the very best (and queerest) of the Kids' first five seasons. Would you believe the Sappho Sluggers, a dyke softball team (played, of course, by the same five guys who play everyone else) with a martini-mixing guest coach? Or Running Faggot, a new folk hero for our times' Or Dracula, a gay aesthete with a taste for rough trade? Plus don't miss the foolproof test for gayness, as devised by beloved secreraries Kathy and Cathy (whose most ferocious insults, incidentally, are reserved for Tanya, the temp). Don't miss the shocking episode that ±1i1ililll__IiIi~~ reveals "Scott Thompson isn't gay anymore." All this, plus the public debut of "Celebrity," the AIDS sketch that CBS refused to run. - San Francisco Gay/Lesbian Film Festival <strong>Program</strong> Notes --------~------~----------~---------------------------------------------------------------~ Caught Looking Director: Great Britain 1991 Constantine Giannaris 16mm 35 mins. An innovative film from Constantine Giannaris, who has swiftly and deservedly become a name-towatch amongst international filmmakers. He was recently voted best gay filmmaker of the year by the British magazine Gay Times, and at the Berlin Film Festival, Caught Looking was unanimously awarded the Teddy Bear Prize for Best Gay Short. Caught Looking is a sexy and subversive comedy about gay men's stereorypical sexual fantasies; it's built around a new virtual realiry home computer game in which the player can select any historical period or location, and then insert himself into the action. Caught Looking was originally made for Channel Four's Out series, but - unsurprisingly - deemed too explicit for mid-evening television. The Gay Rock N' Roll Years Director: Shauna Brown Great Britain 1991 video 60 mins. Made for BBC2' s extended evening of lesbian and gay programming, Saturday Night Out (which in tum was inspired by the success of Channel Four's Out), The Gay Rock N' Roll Years is a giddy through the 50's onwards, using archive clips and pop music. All the great sruff is here - Tom Robinson, Sandie Shaw, the Pet Shop Boys, Kylie Minogue - as well as some especially scary 70's disco fashions. The music is cut to queer moments in British history: ftom the campaign for law reform ro Clause 28; ftom Dirk Bograde, to chanting lesbians invading a prime time news broadcast.
