When last we met Cinema Bomar, they were screening 16 mm shorts of varying degrees of naughtiness behind Domy Books and Brazil.
Domy Books and Cinema Bomar present Our Wonderful Gulf Coast, a grab bag of locally made Houston-themed shorts and promotional films. The screening will begin at dusk with a selection of silent camera positives and working prints from a promotional film made by the Houston Chronicle. Many of the films date to the 1960s and 70s and will offer a look back at the Texas City Disaster, the computerization of the petrochemical industry, San Jacinto State Park, and oil rigs as marine environments. There is also a series of student films from U of H in the 70s and various local commercials from the 50s and 60s. If you go be sure to wear some insect repellent. The skeeters behind Domy are thirsty.
For the second night in a row, Domy Books plays host to an interesting night of film.
Dailyist is a bit late today, but it's been a busy morning so we hope you don't mind, especially since Houstonist again has two awesome events for your enjoyment this evening.
