Movie

Launder Run tells the story of Jake, a man returning to his gritty hometown after years away, carrying the weight of a troubled past. The film opens on a rainy Saturday afternoon as Jake trudges through a bleak estate, visibly exhausted and clutching a plastic bag. Arriving at his sister Sue’s chaotic, unkempt flat, he confronts the ruins of his old life—a dirty fridge, a cluttered bedroom reduced to storage, and the ghosts of a once-close family. Seeking solace, he revisits his old pub, a place teeming with memories. As he steps inside, the bartender recognizes him with shock, hinting at Jake’s mysterious past and the reasons for his long absence. “Lounder Run” explores themes of homecoming, redemption, and the unshakable grip of one’s origins.

In the summer of 2015, former US Marine and world record weightlifter Janae Marie Kroczaleski was publicly outed as being transgender. The reaction was universal: her sponsors abandoned her, she was disowned by her parents and banned from competing. This film follows Janae as she attempts to find her place in society. Initially wanting to strip off the muscle and become a much smaller looking woman, she found herself unable to lose the muscle she so desperately gained. She now finds herself living one day as an alpha male and the next day as a delicate girl. Will Janae be able to handle her muscle relapses? Will her passage from being a male bring her the peace she's looking for? Will society accept a 250lbs muscular woman? Is her path personal redemption or physical and psychological disaster?

The Patrice O'Neal Roast

2003
Movie

Shot in 2003, the Patrice O’Neal Roast was produced by Comedy Anatomy's own Masavia Greer, along with Yumi Akiyama. It features some of the greatest comics of the New York scene, and is part of comedy history. Held at NYC's Boston Comedy Club, the Patrice O'Neal Roast was hosted by Rich Vos and featured Robert Kelly, DC Benny, Vanessa Hollingshead, Colin Quinn, Todd Barry, Jim Norton, Bill Burr, Lynne Koplitz, Ben Bailey, Keith Robinson, and most importantly, Greg Giraldo AND the great Patrice O’Neal. Rest in peace, you are both missed. Many believe Patrice was one of the greatest comics to ever hit the stage, and that he died before getting the recognition he truly deserved. This roast is a look into his life, and the comics who loved him. BE ADVISED THAT THIS WAS PERFORMED 18 YEARS AGO (in 2003, before the digital release), SO PLEASE BE MINDFUL OF THE PARLANCE OF THE TIMES. Quality of available recordings, at this time, is known to only be as high as 480p.
