Screening Update – The Altman Series – Jacksonville, Florida

by

I just received this email from Tim regarding the upcoming screening of the Altman film “3 women”.

“I am sorry to say that Criterion Pictures sent us a 35mm print that is not presentable at least by my standards. IFilm Fest don’t think Altman intended for his film to be in pink & white and scratched up.
Anyways…our friends over at MGM have come through with a nice print of another early Altman film:
THIEVES LIKE US starring Keith Carradine and Shelley Duvall.

I apologize that you won’t be seeing 3 WOMEN but THIEVES LIKE US is another  ignored Altman gem.
Hope you will all make it out for this extra special screening… SUNDAY at 1PM at San Marco Theatre
Cheers!
Tim “
