Hi Vicki,

HBO doesn't currently license its documentaries for streaming and, as you
are a for-profit college, you aren't covered for face-to-face screenings
under section 110 of Copyright.  If your students are able to access
physical reserves in a library, that might be your best option for making
these films available.

Good luck!

Hi deg - 

I haven't seen this video, but it sounds like it could fulfill at least part of

[Videolib] Please Don't Beat Me, Sir! - Special Back-to-School Offer

[Shashwati Talukdar]

Dear Colleagues,


Please feel free to forward this message to any professors you think
might find the film of interest. We want everyone to see for
themselves why the University of Colorado, Columbia University,
Haverford, and many other leading colleges and universities have
ordered our award-winning documentary film, "Please Don't Beat Me,
Sir!" for their libraries. To make it easy for professors to preview
the film, we are offering a special back-to-school sale: normally
$7.99, for a limited time you can watch "Please Don't Beat Me, Sir!"
online for just $3.99. That price includes online viewing for one year
as well as a copy of the film you can download to your hard drive.
https://vimeo.com/ondemand/dontbeatmesir

(This offer is for personal viewing, if you want to use the film in
your class we ask that you have your university purchase the DVD at
the institutional price — that's what makes this deal possible for
us.)

For an in-depth review of the film as an educational tool see
Christian Hammons' review in General Anthropology [PDF]:
http://goo.gl/4qDVEQ

Also, later this year, Kerim’s article “Collaboration against
ethnography: How colonial history shaped the making of an ethnographic
film” will be published in Critique of Anthropology. Whether you are
teaching ethnographic filmmaking, post-colonialism, social movements,
or research ethics, this article makes a perfect companion piece for
the film. You can read the abstract here: http://goo.gl/xdXpKG
Read what others have to say about the film:

“A thoughtful, moving and, above all, important exploration of the
power of theatre to impact a generation and incite a revolution.”
- Sonia Faleiro (Author, Beautiful Thing)
“I see the parallels of what happened to the Chhara and what has
historically happened to the African American and Native American
populations in the US…”
- Sharbari Ahmed (The Daily Star)

“a personal and emotional case study of colonialism and its legacies”


- Christian S. Hammons (General Anthropology)

“…despite the seriousness of the topic, I enjoyed watching this film…
it managed to be fun and was very compelling.”
- Lavanya M. Proctor (Anthrocharya)

Over sixty million Indians belong to communities imprisoned by the
British as 'criminals by birth.' The Chhara of Ahmedabad, in Western
India, are one of 198 such 'Criminal Tribes.' Declaring that they are
'born actors,' not 'born criminals,' a group of Chhara youth have
turned to street theater in their fight against police brutality,
corruption, and the stigma of criminality — a stigma internalized by
their own grandparents. "Please Don't Beat Me, Sir!" follows the lives
of these young actors and their families as they take their struggle
to the streets, hoping their plays will spark a revolution.

For more information about the film, as well as purchasing options,
please visit our website:

http://dontbeatmesir.com

If you have any questions, or would like to arrange a screening,
please contact us at:
i...@fournineandahalf.com



(Kerim will be in Chicago mid-November if any schools in the area
would like to arrange a screening.)

Thank you.

Sincerely,

Kerim Friedman & Shashwati Talukdar

Re: [Videolib] PPR for "You don't know Jack"?

[Jessica Rosner]

Actually it is not a documentary but there has been for many years a
problem licensing made for TV films because they use a different standard
contract than theatrical films and complications in rights can arise. Under
no circumstances can one ever charge admission and this may in fact  also
mean that no money at all can be paid which would of course make HBO or
other companies less than friendly on the subject. I am sure on the
admission but not 100% sure on the fee issue but either way it is a bitch.

Re: [Videolib] PPR for "You don't know Jack"?

Thanks for the info Jessica. I knew they were fictionalized accounts, so 
even though it was only for in-class use to registered students, I was 
afraid it might be more difficult to secure rights than for actual 
documentaries, which are more often available with PPR. But I didn't 
realize the other issues involved with TV movies - that is discouraging...

Re: [Videolib] PPR for alternatives to HBO films

Hello, Vicki,

Bullfrog Films offers three DVD titles you may want to consider if you are 
unable to license the HBO films made for TV.

Heist: Who Stole the American Dream?  
http://www.bullfrogfilms.com/catalog/heist.html
"Heist...comes out swinging... [It] has the virtue of taking the long view of a 
crisis that recent films like Inside Job and Too Big to Fail have only 
sketchily explored." New York Times

http://www.bullfrogfilms.com/catalog/flaw.html

The Love of Money (3-part BBC Series)  
http://www.bullfrogfilms.com/catalog/loms.html

All of these DVDs are available with public performance rights from Bullfrog 
Films, as well as for streaming licenses.

Please let me know if you need more information.

Re: [Videolib] PPR for "You don't know Jack"?

[Jessica Rosner]

If you only need to use it in class and do not need to stream, you MIGHT
find someone at HBO friendly enough to agree. The contract issue comes into
play when money is involved and my guess is HBO probably does not even know
about the restriction on  for profit schools. Alas I don't have a contact
there but I did meet someone at the copyright seminar in Columbia who
seemed to deal with educational use but not sure I can dig it up for a week
as I am leaving town.

for actual public shows it can be a nightmare but I honestly think you can
find someone who gets it at HBO if it only for in class use.

The short version is that most made for tv productions are done with a type
of union contract that does not cover public shows, if they wanted to
include that it would just be cost prohibitive. Some of the docs especially
those they want for Academy consideration do play theatrically ( though
there are often contractual limits on the number of venues) so they are
actually easier to clear than fiction material.

Good luck

[Videolib] Who does non-theatrical rentals of Apocalypse Now (Paramount)?

[Chris Lewis]

I'm pretty green on non-theatrical rentals but have learned that Swank
doesn't carry Paramount titles.

IF it was Paramount it would be Criterion Pictures USA but the film has a
very complicated release history and is owned by Coppola's American
Zoetrobe films. It had been out of distribution for a long time, I don't
know the current status. If neither Swank nor Criterion USA has it , try
here

Those can be secured via Criterion Pictures USA who picked up the Paramount
Contract.  Feel free to reach out to me directly is you need further
information.

Re: [Videolib] Suggestions for an introductory video for comparative politics?

[Deg Farrelly]

Thank you John, and Elena who suggested one of these titles as well.

We have both in our collection, so I have forwarded that info to the
subject librarian to share with the faculty member.

Alas Suzi Paramount does not own it and thus you can't license it.
Paramount only ever had limited home video rights. Chris I would try
Zoetrobe, they will take theatrical dates and they do own it. I was not
100% sure before but I checked. Just no one ask about BLADE RUNNER that one
is worse.
