The latest installment of the Magic Lantern Cinema series is focusing on the small screen. They note that “The TV Show” “explores TV as an industry, a consumer good (or ‘bad’), a collection of stories with their own forms and formats, and an object that generates viewer love and/or hate.” Ten works will be featured, including Todd Haynes’sDottie Gets Spanked (“his take on I Love Lucy as read through Freud’s writings on fantasy and sexual perversions”) and Bill Viola’s Reverse Television — Portraits of Viewers, a 1984 short which watches 44 people (from 16 to 93) glued to the tube. The channel surfing starts at the Cable Car Cinema, 204 South Main St, Providence, at 9:30 pm | $5 | facebook.com/pages/Magic-Lantern-Cinema/158975457461899
