Yipes, times ARE changing:
End of an era: Laemmle's Sunset 5, once the 2nd biggest arthouse in the U.S. is closing. Will be replaced by Sundance Cinemas.

― vitameatawalloginavegamin (donna rouge), Thursday, 3 November 2011 22:34 (twelve years ago) link
re the laemmle noho!
Greg: We are hoping to open before year end and have targeted December 21 as the first date for public screenings. We've got a lot to do between now and then to make this happen, but from top to bottom, our team is committed to hitting that date.

Thursday, November 10 – 4 SUPER 8 FILMS BY LUTHER PRICE (ON FILM!) – 8 PMA small collection of Luther Price’s legendary and controversial Super 8 films projected on their original format, including Sodom, Warm Broth, Clown, and Mr. Wonderful. In an article titled “Home Movies from Hell” in Bright Lights Film Journal, Gary Morris writes of Price: “He works in a disreputable format, appears in various guises in his own work from stylized, frozen-faced drag queen to naked performance artist to clown. Price’s film work has an oppressive intensity, envisioning an alienated world of often mindlessly repeated rituals and poses that entrap and suffocate his subjects ... Images of ruptured flesh and ghostly birthday parties are further ruptured and drained of life by Price’s torturous manipulations of the film, which can include chemical processing, filters, optical printing, re-photography, and even holes punched in the frame. What emerges is Price’s great subject — the breaches, breakdowns, and collapse of body, family, and society, and by extension all of life, in the face of unstoppable philosophical forces.”

Speaking of movie theaters being replaced, we went to see DRIVE at that One Colorado in Pasadena only to find that it is now one of these fucking places where you pay almost $30 for the privilege of being served a meal (which you pay for on top of the cover) and sitting in fancy seats while you watch the movie. And there we were at like noon thinking it was gonna be a cheap matinee. Fuck these places!
In other adam-related LA news, I finally went to the revolving bar atop the Bonaventure the other night. Is it bad that I thought it was kind of awesome? Downtown actually looks so beautiful from there.
