Join Movie Loft for the 5th happening of the Harry Dean Stanton Appreciation Society, a screening series featuring some perhaps lesser-encountered movies that included the one and only HDS! Working off Roger Ebert's “Stanton-Walsh” rule, which states that any movie that features M. Emmet Walsh or Harry Dean Stanton, however briefly, cannot be all bad, we'll put this rule to the test once a month in 2024!May brings us the little-seen 1988 comedy 'Stars and Bars', from director Pat O'Conner ('Cal', 'The January Man', etc.). This is the tale of a British art expert named Henderson (Daniel Day-Lewis) venturing from New York to the South on the trail of an elusive Renoir. Once in Georgia our Englishman finds himself amidst a kooky bunch, including our beloved Harry Dean as one Loomis Gage, the head of an eccentric family. Also featuring such luminaries as Martha Plimpton, Rockets Redglare, Joan Cusack, Steven Wright, Spalding Gray and the bared buns of Day-Lewis! Never released on DVD, we'll be basking in this laugher in all of it's VHS glory!
And, by popular demand, wieners are returning for the warmer months! Grillmaster Rob will be back on the grates of steel, serving up the Sabrett's nice and hot!
FREE! Donations appreciated. Doors 'n' dogs at 7:00, movie commencing at 8:00. BYO or sample what's on-hand!
