I'm Me, And You?

Description

Oddball Films and guest curator Joe Garrity present I’m Me, And You?: Exploring Identities of Self and Other. Get comfortable before the mirror in a program that probes life’s greatest mystery: ourselves. From educational films to the avant-garde, animation to documentary, we examine the complexities of identity in the interpersonal world of you and me. This screening includes the groovy after school special Me: A Self Awareness Film (1975), along with a chapter from the feel-good cartoon series The Most Important Person, I’m The Only Me! (1972). Take issue with conformity in Dan Bessie’s funky animation Square Pegs and Round Holes (1973), and join children concerned about social roles in the offbeat I’m Me and Want to Be (1975). Witness confidence shaken around the office in the snarky industrial film What Do We Look Like To Others? (1972) and let uneasy teens open up to you in the dubious UC Berkeley sponsored doc, Adolescence: Crisis or Opportunity (1975). Doppelgangers complicate identity in a zany retake of a 1920s drama with Twin Dukes and a Duchess, and animations of primal dimensions dazzle in the Oscar-nominated stop-motion short Clay, or The Origin of the Species (1969) and the startling dream-trip, Ego (1970). Plus! Twin talents and more! Join us as we introspect, “what makes me me?” and ponder the ultimate unknown: your “me” and mine.
