We had the best time at @bluemtnfilmfest. The fest

We had the best time at @bluemtnfilmfest. The fest launched in 2022, doubled in size in 2023, and has huge potential for being a favourite amongst both industry and film lovers. The vibe is noticeably relaxed, welcoming, and warm, and we love that you can easily pair a thought-provoking film with a post-screening hike. Honestly, mark this on your calendar for next year—it’s magical.✨💕🎬

🎬🏳️‍🌈🫦🚬 QUEEN OF THE DEUCE is screening one night only (TONIGHT) at @hotdocs_ cinema, as part of the Toronto Jewish Film Festival, and you should go. Chelly Wilson is a remarkable woman, a New York legend, and her story will blow your mind.
.
Chelly was a tenacious and queer Jewish Greek-born woman who evaded the Nazis, came to America on her own in 1939, and became a successful entrepreneur, owning and operating several theatres in and around NYC’s 42nd street, or the seedy strip known as The Deuce. Chelly ☝️was also one of the first to screen and produce porn cinema.
.
Chelly moved in many circles, and played poker late into the night with well-known mobsters. She was a shrewd businesswoman, who was empathetic but tough. Her eclectic apartment sat on top of one of her bustling theatres, vaulted with multiple locks. Inside, rooms with mismatched furniture were full of raucous gatherings, plumes of cigarette smoke, and shoeboxes crammed full of money. Chelly wasn’t always likable, but she was undeniably impressive, and she made a big impression on young Valerie. “It’s a portrait that does her honour… It’s not all complimentary.”
.
Link in bio to read @jenmcneely79’s full interview with filmmaker Valerie Kontakos, who worked in one of Chelly’s theatre, back in the 1960s, when she was just fifteen years old. What a story. 💥💥💥
.
This is a must-see doc that you will talk about for ages.
