20yrs ago Gary Sherman self-financed his own wild indie film, 39: A FILM BY CARROLL MCKANE. After showing it at festivals, he felt it was too extreme & unsettling for audiences at the time. Now he's showing it again THIS SUNDAY. And I'm hosting the Q&A! Join us!

My first time programming a movie musical!!!!!!!!!!! So excited to share this bold, wacky film with our audiences at @musicboxtheatre.bsky.social. This film was HUGE for me in 2007 (I’ve been lovingly calling it “baby’s first ‘weird’ movie”)!

RIP actor & Chicago native Ron Dean.

He interrogated Dr. Richard Kimble in THE FUGITIVE, he dropped Andy off at detention in THE BREAKFAST CLUB, he was shot by Harvey Dent in THE DARK KNIGHT, he was Marty Crane's poker buddy on FRASIER, and so much more.
