George Mansour

[HANOVER, NH] Colleague and Independent Filmmaker Greg Kruszewski is creating a documentary about our local film hero George Mansour. We were happy to help Greg cover George’s discussion with the Dartmouth College students today.

George was incredibly candid with the students as they discussed the circumstances regarding his arrest over fifty years ago.  Micheal Bronski wrote a great piece and had an interesting Q&A session with George in an article for the Boston Phoenix titled ‘Drag lad tells all.’  George is blunt, kind-hearted charater, that should make for a very interesting film. We’ll be sure to post more information about the documentary as it becomes available.

Congressman Paul Hodes

[HOOKSETT, NH] Congressman Paul Hodes met with Denise Arsenault & Cindy Nickerson today to discuss the resistance they are receiving for creating a union. Other concerned citizens were there as well to discuss their problems with today’s economy and their problems with unemployment.

Congressman Hodes took the time to listen to their stories and was very receptive.  We covered this event for Richard Bensigner who is doing a film on Denise and Cindy’s story.

It’s an interesting story that should make for an interesting film. We’ll be sure to update on it’s progress.
