520    "It Came From Kuchar  gleefully piles on everything that 
       anyone could want in a docu on the fabulous Kuchar 
       brothers." - VARIETY. In a portrait The New York Times 
       calls "affectionate and fascinating," filmmaker Jennifer 
       M. Kroot examines the lives of legendary filmmaker twins 
       George and Mike Kuchar from their pre-teen filmmaker roots
       to their emergence in the underground of American Cinema. 
       This playlist features Kroot's feature-length documentary 
       It Came From Kuchar, a hilarious and touching story of 
       artistic obsession, compulsion and inspiration, as well as
       six short films from the duo and even an introduction by 
       George Kuchar for his 1976 underground comedy A Reason to 
       Live. Long before YouTube, there were the outrageous, no-
       budget movies of underground, filmmaking twins George and 
       Mike Kuchar, growing up in the Bronx in the 1950s, and 
       using friends and family as actors. Alongside Andy Warhol 
       in the 1960s, the Kuchar brothers shaped the New York 
       underground film scene. Their films have inspired many 
       filmmakers, including John Waters, Buck Henry, Atom Egoyan,
       Guy Maddin and Wayne Wang, all of whom are interviewed in 
       the film. It Came From Kuchar interweaves the brothers' 
       lives, their admirers, a history of underground film and a
       "greatest hits" of Kuchar clips into a mesmerizing stream 
       of consciousness tale. Cinephiles with a love of queer and
       experimental tales, students, and film-loving weirdos of 
       every stripe will find plenty to love in Kroot's 
       documentary and the six films, three by George, three by 
       Mike, spanning over 30 years of their filmmaking careers.
