Moe
Title: Moe
Released: June 4, 2023
Type: Movie
Moe, a fun-loving theater artist working on a one woman show, finds out that he is dying from an AIDS related illness. Naturally, his response is to invite his closest friends over for a “going away for good” party as one last big celebration of his life. His plans go awry when his best friend, and his ex, decide to crash the party, despite 15 years without communication between them. Alternating between the painful reality of his current situation and scenes featuring his alter ego, a torch-singing drag queen who wants to take him for “the ride of his life,” MOE is an often light-hearted film that also packs a serious emotional punch.

Lives in Hazard
Title: Lives in Hazard
Character: self
Released: April 8, 1994
Type: Movie
Lives in Hazard is a tough, uncompromising look at kids in gangs and the men they become in prison. Filmed in the barrios of east LA and in the prisons of California, this real-life drama follows the making of the Hollywood feature film American Me, in which director Edward James Olmos used real gang members and prison inmates as actors. The fictional scenes these homeboys portray pale in juxtaposition to the stark reality of their daily lives, a world where opportunities are scarce and guns plentiful. The brutal honesty of these gang members as they struggle to change makes Lives in Hazard a powerful story of kids caught up in a growing national crisis.
