LX takes a break from the red carpet to send Cecile Raubenheimer to the Tribeca Film Festival drive-in for the outdoor screening of the documentary Planet B-Boy. The film chronicles the history and art of competitive break-dancing, following a group of competitors to the World Championship. Amid weekend film go-ers and live street-dancers, Cecile speaks to director Benson Lee about his film and the resurgence of this dance movement.
Next, Cecile takes a look at some projects from Tribeca Midnight Films, a unique and often unusual group of films. Director Jim Mickle describes the hair-raising story line behind his horror film Mulberry Street, appropriately set in New York City. The next screening of “Mulberry Street” is May 1 at 11pm.
