"They weren't chicks, they were dudes..." Such is the plaint of a most curious plaintiff, in this sidesplitting, hilarious-but-true "infiltration" of The Judge Joe Brown Show.

MONDO INTRO
USA, 2007, 70 MIN
DIRECTED BY SCOTT CALONICO
World Premiere

The ingenious director of "The King and Dick" (FFF 2003), "LSD A Go Go" (FFF2005), and "Safety First" (FFF 2006) returns with the ultimate ephemeral, talking-head guide to white, male-dominated Cold War America. In the tradition of The Atomic Cafe, Festival favorite Scott Calonico takes the viewer on a tour through the seamy underbelly of the United States, circa 1950-1969, as culled entirely from industrial and "Mental Hygiene" films. With a surreal cast of celebrity guests, including Postmaster General Lawrence O'Brian, journalist Edward R. Murrow, and funnyman Harvey Korman, this is the definitive look at the world as seen through the clear, confident eyes of Old White Guys in Cool Sixties Suits. At turns hypnotic, horrifying, and very, very, funny, Mondo Intro presents a history both familiar yet foreign, of a time unflaggingly optimistic, yet brutally--and tactlessly--unsentimental.
