Exclusive: National Geographic is wading into one of psychology’s most debated studies from the past 50 years. The network has given a green light to The Stanford Prison Experiment: Unlocking The Truth (wt), a three-part docuseries from Juliette Eisner, Alex Braverman and Muck Media, the producers behind Nat Geo’s Emmy-nominated Trafficked: Underworlds with Mariana van Zeller.
Led by Stanford psychology professor Dr. Phillip Zimbardo, the six-day Stanford Prison Experiment was Zimbardo’s attempt to understand the power of situation over human behavior. In 1971, Zimbardo paid two dozen college-aged participants to live in a mock prison, observing how randomly assigned “prisoner” and “guard” roles influenced behavior. What started out as a self-contained university experiment turned into a media spectacle that captured the imagination and attention of the world, defining our understanding of human nature and forever changing the course of psychology.

In 2008 at the Museum of Modern Art for Funny Games (starring Naomi Watts, Tim Roth, Michael Pitt, Brady Corbet), when Michael Haneke was asked by Ed Bahlman if he had any pets, he stated that he is "a cat person.

The fifth annual Brisbane Underground Film Festival continues the scrappy little fest’s continuing mission to bring a little bit of cinematic oddballness to an underserved spot on the globe. The fest takes place on Jan. 8-10 at the Brisbane Powerhouse.
The fest kicks off on Jan. 8 with some local flavor, the documentary Gone Lesbo Gone, directed by Jarret Gahan, which takes a look at the making of an ambitious, but extremely cult level exploitation film, Lesbo-a-Go-Go. This will then be followed by an examination of a cult following on a galactic scale: Lil’ Bub & Friendz, directed by Andy Capper & Juliette Eisner, which brings the Internet cat video phenomenon to the big screen.
The real highlight of the fest, though — according to the Underground Film Journal — is Usama Alshaibi‘s incredibly personal and thought-provoking documentary American Arab, which examines the Arab experience in a post-9/11 world through personal recollections as...

Fall is a wonderful time of year (pumpkin-flavored treats! Cooling weather!), but it also means longer nights and shorter days, which can lead to seasonal affective disorder. Although we are not doctors, we'd like to prescribe the cat documentary "Lil Bub & Friendz" to anyone who is feeling a little blue as the summer winds down -- or any time of the year, for that matter.
In case you didn't know, Lil Bub is a cat, and she is amazing. She has her own website, Facebook page, Twitter feed, Instagram, book, and talk show (or meow show?). The tiny, toothless "perma-kitten" has been stealing hearts since she first appeared in YouTube videos doing things like crawling around and eating yogurt. Whoopi Goldberg loves Lil Bub! And so does Andrew Wk.
"Lil Bub & Friendz" gets up close and personal with Lil Bub and her human, Mike Bridavsky. Filmmakers Juliette Eisner and Andy Capper...

★★★☆☆ For centuries, cat owners have been forced to lead a lonely existence whilst their canine-owning friends meet and cohort in parks across the globe. Then came the internet, a haven for porn addicts and lonely felinophiles; a glorified, electronic moggy idyll where enthusiasts can share and celebrate the inane activities of their four-legged feline companions - with sites like YouTube becoming a breeding ground for overnight stardom. However, one particular pussy phenomenon has risen above her online eminence and taken the leap from the web to the big screen by starring in her own little movie, Lil Bub & Friendz (2013).
Despite featuring a host of famous internet cat memes such as Nyan Cat, Grumpy Cat and Keyboard Cat, Andy Capper and Juliette Eisner have chosen Lil Bub as the focus of their benign investigation into the incredible rise in popularity of online kitties. We're first introduced to Bub through a garish...
