🎬"No film of the period is more prescient" (Jason Bailey)
🍿Vegan treats and real peanut oil popcorn at the snack bar
🎭"one of the funniest social comedies of the period, as well as the most human" (Village Voice)
Hal Ashby's 1970 directorial debut is a prescient dramedy about a rich white landlord trying to oust Black tenants from a Park Slope tenement. Sharp, absurdist, and still uncomfortably relevant.
Provocative dramedy
Rare 35mm screening
Gentrification satire
