  Everybody loves the movies. But a movie about the colour blue, or an isolated mountain range, or a man grown so thin the world floats through his perfect transparency? 'You know what would be really great - to make a two-hour movie about Taylor Mead's ass,' remarked Andy Warhol, the most notorious fringe filmer of them all. Welcome to the strange and wonderful universe of fringe cinema, where the only rules left unbroken are the ones that have been forgotten. Twenty-three interviews with Canada's finest underdogs lay it all down like a road, ready to take you through the vanishing point of personality.
     
  This new edition includes a foreword by Atom Egoyan, and features never-before-heard raps from Ellie Epp, David Rimmer, Ann Marie Fleming, Anna Gronau, John Kneller, Rick Hancox and Kika Thorne, joining fellow fringers like Mike Snow, Carl Brown, Patricia Gruben, Penelope Buitenhuis, Fumiko Kiyooka, Wrik Mead, Annette Mangaard, Gariné Torossian, Richard Kerr and Mike Cartmell.

  An Artist's Look at Theology, Art, and Philosophy
  Dear Tom,
  Thanks for writing again—and for this unusually philosophical response to my letter! In response: my theology of art is my theology. Period. I think of God as the Artist and all human artists as eternal apprentices. Consequently, all my thinking about God involves the centrality of beauty and the act of making. As I've said many times, we were made by a Maker to be makers. . . .
  Bruce
  In a series of fictional letters, respected artist and educator Bruce Herman passes on wisdom to a younger generation. He explores a wide array of practical, philosophical, and theological issues, such as:
  
  - What is art versus craft? What is good art?
  - What is the calling of an artist? Of a Christian artist?
  - What do you do when you're stuck in your creative process?
  - How should Christians relate to the contemporary art scene?
  - What is beauty, and how is it relevant in our world?
  Full of personal stories and behind-the-scene looks at Herman's own artistic process, Makers by Nature also features full-color artwork by Herman and several of his former students. Artists and art lovers will find insight, wonder, and encouragement to consider the Maker's invitation to creativity, however it takes shape.

  APOCALYPSE NOW 
  THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION 
    
  FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY FRANCIS FORD COPPOLA 
    
  CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE 
    
  ABOUT THE FILM 
  Apocalypse Now (1979) is a war film directed by Francis Ford Coppola, set during the Vietnam War. The story follows Captain Benjamin Willard, who is sent on a covert mission to assassinate Colonel Kurtz, a U.S. Army officer who has gone rogue and established a violent, godlike rule over a remote Cambodian outpost. As Willard journeys upriver with his crew, he encounters the brutal realities of war, exploring themes of madness, morality, and the human cost of violence. The film blends surrealism and psychological horror, offering a haunting critique of war and its dehumanizing effects. 
    
  TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
    
  “Principal photography concluded on May 21, 1977, after 238 days of filming.” 
    
  “Al Pacino was also offered the role of Captain Willard but declined, fearing a lengthy stay in the jungle and recalling how he fell ill during The Godfather Part II in the Dominican Republic.” 
    
  “Apocalypse Now won the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival, sharing the honor with The Tin Drum by Volker Schlöndorff, despite some boos from the audience.” 
    
  “The film's title, Apocalypse Now, was inspired by a button badge from the 1960s that read 'Nirvana Now,' which John Milius modified for the film.” 
    
  “During Captain Willard's conversation with Colonel Kurtz, Willard's Ohio roots are mentioned. Interestingly, actor Martin Sheen is from Dayton, Ohio, just like his character.”
