Why Does the Wilhelm Scream?

It's our final Driving While Screaming for the 2025 Oak Cliff Film Festival. It was a good festival (it always is), good slate of films. Some real standouts that we can't wait to watch again. If you were in attendance, we'd love to hear your thoughts on the festival, and any films you were impressed with. Talk to you soon...

Day three of the Oak Cliff Film Festival. We just spent twelve hours watching movies. We're tired; Brock's cranky. It's a tough job. Someone has to do it. You're welcome.

Part Two, Day Two. On the after portion of today's Driving While Screaming, we get into 'The Maya Deren Project,' a series of Deren's short films accompanied by a 10,000 Lakes live score. We also saw the scrappy, charming comedy, 'Lockjaw' directed by Sabrina Greco. Stay tuned for Day Three.

We are back with another rendition of Driving While Screaming! This time, it's the Oak Cliff Film Festival version. We'll be bringing you nightly recaps over the next four days. This episode is a meandering one that covers so many things, but most importantly Albert Birney's new film 'Obex.'

Another entry in our DIFF interview series. This time, a documentary: DIY: The Rise and Fall and Rise of Punk Rock. It's a doc that's true to its name, and ethos--as are the filmmakers Joel Herrera and Rolo Cantu.

There is no way to accurately describe to you how much fun we had talking to Lindsey and Joey--the duo responsible for the brilliant, funny, touching, insightful, crazy-smart film 'Party People.' We can't wait for you all to see this movie when it hits screens. Good Lord, these two are the absolute best.

Winner of the International Feature Audience Award at DIFF 2025, Happy as Larry is moving, funny story of a unsatisfied man out for one last adventure. It's a buddy movie, an existential exploration, and a deeply human film. What a great conversation with these guys. Watch out for this one...and watch out for every one involved. 

Happy as Larry trailer
