The Windmill Movie Premieres on HBO

Dear cable television subscribers,

If you haven’t seen it yet, the time has finally come, for Alexander Olch’s The Windmill Movie premieres tonight—Wednesday, October 28th—at 8pm on HBO. Olch assembles footage shot by his deceased film school teacher, Richard P. Rogers, in order to finish the lifelong project that Rogers was never able to reconcile. Read my conversation with Olch from earlier this year, as well as my full review, in which I favorably compare The Windmill Movie to Synecdoche, New York, and explain what I think makes it such a marvelous feat. Then visit the film’s page at the HBO website to view the full schedule. Then watch it!

Sincerely,

Michael Tully
