A Celebration of Doug Jones
As many of our friends, members, and supporters know, Vidiots lost our dear friend and colleague Doug Jones on November 1, 2023. To celebrate our love for Doug and his incredible commitment to Vidiots, to cinema, and countless members of the film community, Vidiots is proudly hosting a day of public programming in Doug’s honor on Saturday, March 23. The titles selected for this very tender and special day are films Doug loved, and that he cherished sharing with audiences. We hope you’ll join us for a day of watching and talking movies, just as our Doug would have wanted.

Harry is a retired teacher in his 70s living in the Upper West Side of New York City where his late wife and he raised his children–where he’s lived all his life. When the building he lives in is torn down to make way for a parking garage, Harry and his beloved cat Tonto begin a journey across the United States, visiting his children, seeing a world he never seemed to have the time to see before, making new friends, and saying goodbye to old friends.

In 2007, Doug programmed Harry and Tonto for the Los Angeles Film Festival, where he was then the Senior Programmer, and I a Programmer for the Festival. The screening was attended by Paul Mazursky, and I had never seen it. It will always remind me of Doug, of our beautiful friendship, and 20 years of moving-watching together. –Maggie Mackay, Vidiots Executive Director
