The Cinema and Art film series presents “Howard Pyle & The Illustrated Story on Thursday, April 19, 2012, 6:30 pm at the INN at Canal Square in Lewes.
Howard Pyle, a Delaware treasure, was one of America’s most popular illustrators and storytellers at a time when top illustrators were celebrities. His images may be better known than his name. Enjoy this informative film to learn more about Howard Pyle, a Delaware treasure.
Howard Pyle and the Illustrated Story explores the history, artistry and spectacular rise of this amazing artist. The documentary reveals Howard Pyle’s (1853-1911) talents as prolific author, illustrator, and teacher. It shows how Pyle established a new standard of excellence in turn-of-the-century American graphic art. Interviews with artists Jamie Wyeth and Darrell Warren (“Pirates of the Caribbean”) uncover the many stylistic Pyle influences in painting, illustration, and modern cinema. [2011, US, Runtime: 46 mins, Not rated]
The film was written, directed and produced by Wilmington native, Paul Mento of Silver Hand Productions. Mento’s production studio is located three blocks from Pyle’s former studio. Take pleasure in the opportunity to meet and talk with another Delaware treasure, filmmaker Paul Mento, who will be present to share his filmmaking experiences.

The Rehoboth Beach Film Society is pleased to present a screening of “Blast!” as a part of the On Screen/In Person tour. The screening will take place at 7:00 pm, Fri, April 20, in the upstairs screening room at Movies at Midway.
This is a great opportunity to meet five-time Emmy winner director Paul Devlin. “Blast” is a suspenseful documentary that follows the story of Paul Devlin’s brother, Mark Devlin PhD, as he leads a tenacious team of scientists hoping to figure out how all the galaxies formed by launching a revolutionary new telescope under a NASA high-altitude balloon.
Their adventure takes them from Arctic Sweden to Inuit polar bear country in Canada, where catastrophic failure forces the team to try all over again on the desolate ice in Antarctica. The film also explores the crazy life of scientists, their professional obsessions, personal and family sacrifices, as well as philosophical and religious perspectives, all of which give emotional resonance to a suspenseful story of space exploration. The exciting journey seeks to answer humankind's most basic question, How did we get here? [2008, USA, Runtime: 78 min., Not rated]
Tim Teeman of “Time Entertainment” says “For those of us with bad memories of physics and chemistry class, it (the film) was inspirational.”
Following the screening, director Paul Devlin will be joined by Associate Professor Douglas Miller (University of Delaware’s College of Earth, Ocean, and Environment) to discuss the film’s artistic and scientific contributions.
Tickets are $4 for Film Society members and $5 for future members. Tickets can be purchased online at www.rehobothfilm.com, by calling 302-645-9095, ext 1, or visiting the RBFS office, Mon-Fri, 9:00 am- 4:30 pm. Please note that tickets are non-refundable.

The next Around the World screening will feature “Vasermil” on Wednesday, April 4, at 7:00 pm in the upstairs screening room at Movies at Midway. Around the World features critically acclaimed, international, independent films and is sponsored by Rehoboth Beach Film Society, Lewes Public Library, and Movies at Midway. The film series is free and open to the public.
In the drama “Vasermil”, emerging filmmaker Mushon Salmona reveals the racial and economic dynamics of Israeli society. This is no ordinary teens-playing-sports-and-overcoming-adversity movie as the film takes a raw look at the no-future world of three teenagers who live in the same tough neighborhood and who are brought together on a mission to reinvigorate their local football club.
Shlomi lives with his widowed mother, little sister, and step-father and works as a pizza delivery boy. Adiel, of Ethiopian descent, has to look after his young brother and sick mother. Dima, a new immigrant from Russia, fights an uphill battle against stereotypes that would peg him a gangster or drug dealer.
A teacher asks Shlomi, Adiel, and Dima to work together in leading their local football club in a youth championship tournament at the Vasermil Stadium. In order to be competitive, they will have to play as a team, overcome their differences, as well as get over their sense of inferiority and prejudice. Success in the tournament will garner notice by the scouts of the local football empire which could be the ticket to a different life. Can the three boys overcome serious obstacles or does hardship prevail? [2007, Israel, Runtime: 93 minutes, in Russian, Amharic, and Hebrew with English subtitles]
