The documentary Art for Everybody explores the life and legacy of Thomas Kinkade, famously known as the "Painter of Light." Kinkade's idyllic and pastoral artworks made him one of the most collected artists of his time, but also one of the most criticized for his "kitschy" style. The film delves into his rise to fame in the 1990s, his marketing to American evangelicals, and his opposition to the elite art establishment. After Kinkade's untimely death in 2012, his family discovered a vault of unseen paintings that revealed a darker, more complex side to his artistry. It paints a portrait of a conflicted individual whose life and work reflect the cultural divides in America.

Director Davide Fiore chats about his new film--A Little Fellow: The Legacy of A.P. Giannini, which makes its US premiere at the CINEQUEST Film Festival March 13th. A.P. Giannini wasn’t just any banker. He founded Bank of America, building what would become one of the largest financial institutions in the world. And he did it by betting on the people that traditional banks ignored—immigrants, working-class families, and small businesses. His impact is everywhere: he financed the Golden Gate Bridge, backed Hollywood’s early studios, and proved that banking could be a tool for progress rather than exclusion. Yet, somehow, his story has never been told on film—until now. www.alittlefellowmovie.com #BankofAmerica #BankofItaly #APGiannini #AmericanDream #ItalianImmigrant #GoldenGateBridge Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
