NYAFF: Day 5
Tuesday, June 24th, 2008Magic Marker Rembrandt returned with a vengeance!
Another sold out screening of L: CHANGE THE WORLD, preceded by a t-shirt giveaway/strip tease that saw one Subway Cinema member reveal his naked, burly chest and shock the entire theater with his mandom. The line for L started an hour before showtime and wound up reaching the end of the block. Here’s the photographic evidence:
Witness…The End of the Line.
Tonight’s other big show was KALA and an Indonesian theater director came out of the screening (she’s teaching at NYU right now) and started filling us in on fun facts about the actors. It turns out that almost every single actor in KALA does most of their work in Indonesian experimental theater.
Finally, if you’re buying tickets, SPARROW, TOKYO GORE POLICE, PUBLIC ENEMY RETURNS, ACCURACY OF DEATH, SUKIYAKI WESTERN DJANGO (with a party afterwards), the 7/1 screening of M (with director Lee Myung-Se present) and ALWAYS: SUNSET ON THIRD STREET 1 and 2 are selling out fast. Get your tickets quick before they’re all gone and you’re left with nothing but tears staining your face and a pocketful of regrets.
