Friday, May 3 at 8:00 PM • Saturday, May 4 at 8:00 PM
at the historic Redford Theatre
(on fashionable Lahser Road, just north of Grand River Ave.) Tickets: $15
Absolutely no one admitted under 17

Paul Thomas Anderson’s sprawling mosaic of life in the adult-film industry follows the surrogate family of director Jack Horner (Burt Reynolds, in a career-topping performance)—among them the uniquely qualified star Dirk Diggler (Mark Wahlberg), nurturing Amber Waves (Julianne Moore), and sweetly pathetic boom operator Scotty J. (Philip Seymour Hoffman)—riding high in the late 1970s before changing tides and technologies render them has-beens in the 1980s. Brilliant acting by Anderson’s stock company and the writer/director’s sensitive approach to the challenging subject matter make his sophomore feature one of the greatest films of the 1990s.

The Redford Theatre is screening a recently struck 70mm film print, sponsored by the Motor City Cinema Society, but warns audiences that the very adult subject matter means that NO ONE UNDER 17 WILL BE ADMITTED.

See ya there, cinephiles!

Stay sick, scratch glass, turn blue, climb walls…but don't get caught!
