Vappuhumua (1938) | Slate

Vappuhumua

Vappuhumua, filmed by Ama Jokinen, is a rarity from the late 1930s, a great experimental short film about the May Day celebrations of Helsinki residents. It offers excitement and unique angles using prism optics. This May Day photo truly lives and breathes, in a word, swings. "You had the desire to hug and I had the skill to do it..."

Jim: The James Foley Story

Rated 7.4 on TMDB

In August, 2014, a video of the public execution of American photojournalist James Foley rippled across the globe. Foley wore an orange jumpsuit as he knelt beside an ISIS militant dressed in black. That image challenged the world to deal with a new face of terror. And it tested one American family. Seen through the lens of filmmaker Brian Oakes, Foley’s close childhood friend, Jim takes us from small-town New England to the adrenaline-fueled front lines of Libya and Syria, where Foley pushed the limits of danger to report on the plight of civilians impacted by war.
