In 2003, eight Rhode Island artists created a secret apartment inside the busy Providence Place Mall and lived there for four years, sneaking in furniture, tapping into the mall's electricity, constructing walls, and even smuggling in more than two tons of cinderblock, filming everything along the way. More than just a wild prank, the apartment became a deeply personal expression of defiance against local gentrification, and a boundary-pushing work of public/private art in which large-scale charitable art projects were planned, including, finally, a 750 square-foot middle finger to The Man.

The Life and Works of Richard Wagner, directed by Carl Fröhlich, was originally released on 20th November 1913. It was the first ever 'bio-pic', and as such was about who else but Wagner? What is extraordinary, however, is that it predates D. W. Griffiths and Birth of a Nation, usually described as the first 'long' silent, at a time when most silents ran for 10 minutes at the outside. Fröhlich's film runs for over 80 minutes.
