At Maryland
St. Nick will next be headed East to the Maryland Film Festival, which has just announced its schedule. Our film is playing on Friday, May 8th at 12:45 and Sunday, May 10th at 11:00; tickets can be procured here. There are quite a few things I'm really excited about seeing there, such as Monster Road director Brett Ingram's new documentary, Rocaterrania, and Cory McAbee's Stingray Sam. Oh, and Andy Betzer's short film John Wayne Hated Horses, which was just accepted into Director's Fortnight at Cannes! The film was shot by the awesome Sean Williams, who also shot Frownland, whose director Ronnie Bronstein stars in Josh and Benny Safdie's new feature Go Get Some Rosemary, which is also debuting in Cannes. Wonderful news all around.
And Frownland, as most of the people who read this know by now, is playing this weekend on a double feature with the Safdies' The Pleasure Of Being Robbed at the Silent Movie Theater in Los Angeles. I'm going to the Saturday night screening - a whole gaggle of friends will be turning out, I think, so feel free to make our numbers swell should you feel your weekend needs an extra dose of caustic whimsy and misanthropic comedy (which, having seen both films several times already, I can assure you it does). In the meantime, do check out Ronnie's new interview with Mike Plante, which reads the way I wish I could make myself sound when I talk.
