"There’s no such thing as a bad home movie. These mini-underground opuses are revealing, scary, joyous, always flawed, filled with accidental art and shout out from attics and closets all over the world to be seen again. Home Movie Day is an orgy of self-discovery, a chance for family memories to suddenly become show business. If you’ve got one, whip it out and show it now." –John Waters

It’s back!! The 5th Annual Home Movie Day returns for another celebration of films by you, your parents, your grandparents, your neighbors, genuine strangers and total weirdos. HMD 2006 was an overwhelming success with events in over 40 cities throughout the US, Canada, Mexico, Europe and Japan. This year promises to be bigger and better because YOU will be bringing YOUR 8mm, Super 8mm or 16mm films to Anthology where they will be inspected and projected for all to observe. Motion picture archivists will be on hand to discuss film preservation and to give tips on how to save your precious movies before it is too late.

Sorry, but only films will be screened at this event, which means NO HOME VIDEOS (however video-makers should definitely come and see what they are missing).

Screenings will be first come, first served and we will not be able to screen more than one or two reels per person. Whether it is the day you lost your first tooth, an unknown cousin’s graduation or Grandpa in his Cadillac, we want to see those movies!
