Walter Steding Movies
- 2005
Inevitably recalling his earlier effort, the long-incomplete Downtown 81 (which was eventually finished and issued in 2001), Edo Bertoglio returns to the same subject with this documentary effort. The film, like its predecessor, leads viewers on a tour of the New York avant-garde scene of the late 1970s and early 1980s. Using archival footage and interviews with such individuals as Deborah Harry, Glenn O'Brien and Victor Bockris, Bertoglio conjures up a re-evocation of the said time and place, and draws on the vivid, colorful and anecdotal recollections of his participants - thus revealing how collective experiences helped shape and define a particular environment and atmosphere in a Manhattan that no longer exists. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi

When the power of punk merges with the creative freedom offered by public access television, the programming that follows is sure to turn viewers on to a whole new lifestyle. Now the show that changed the way hip New Yorkers looked at television in the late '70s is back with a vengeance as Glenn O'Brien's TV Party gets ushered into the new millennium along with a little help from old friends Iggy Pop, George Clinton, David Bowie, Mick Jones, and a whole host of the hottest cutting-edge musicians of the era. Co-hosted by O'Brien and Blondie guitarist Chris Stein, TV Party proved that music television doesn't have to cater to the hottest pop sensation of tastiest flavor of the week to make for compelling viewing. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
