Throughout the month of June, we feature over fifty years of films and videos by twin brothers George and Mike Kuchar, brilliant proponents of no-budget moviemaking.

Saturated in the Hollywood B movies screened at their neighborhood theater, they drew on the professionals for ideas about style and genre, developing an unerring eye for lighting, framing, and camera angles.

Kuchar's eccentric presence pervades these "home videos," which veer from the scatological to the sublime as they observe the banality and intimacy of the everyday. With perverse humor and melancholy, his video journals resonate with an unexpected poetry.
