i remember seeing Sid and Nancy as part of the New York Film Festival! throughout the film, some of the "older" audience members walked out -- guessing they were NYFF subscription patrons, and just did not get it at all
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:23pm
DanFA:

↳ slugluv1313 @8:21
I worked for the theater that held the NYFF and I can without a doubt attest that the older audience members and patrons are nightmares to deal with and have big sticks up their asses.

never thought of attending nyff, always seemed so exclusionary, went to rotterdam film festval a long time ago, and an entirely different model, very egalitarian

hi DanFA!
totally! i mean, i am "older" now but not all snooty and elitist!
the ex and i, on the other hand, were in stitches -- "Sid, what about the farewell drugs!" "Siiiid wake up!" -- i never saw Sid and Nancy around, but he was at SVA so there were sightings -- like Sid walking around with a leather jacket but no shirt underneath . . . in 20ºF weather

i have not been in years, so do not know what it is like now -- but snooty patrons or not, the ex and i enjoyed going -- like it was fun to get dressed up for a film! we saw Blood Simple, Stranger Than Paradise, The Virgin Machine . . .

"Never trust a junkie." Yeah, I distinctly remember at a preview screening for Wall Street 2 for patrons one of the patrons threatened to shoot my manager because we weren't seating people fast enough. My manager was told "you know, you should be shot." Verbatim.

Apparently Webb had her own heroin problem at the time (I believe she says so herself on the Criterion DVD) which got in the way of her promising career.

He's also talking about founding "anti-woke" universities (aping DeSantis' line of shit, which is odd considering how poorly that guy is doing), taking another bite at the 'fake college' apple is bold of him, though.

yes, been thinking about that -- and feeling gutted

i keep thinking about seeing The Pogues at Maxwell's, mid-1980s -- i remember we were all singing "Dirty Old Town" with them in that tiny back room, some of us holding our own bottles (*not* from the bar, hah!) -- because, well, Hoboken really WAS a dirty old town back then -- damn, i miss stuff like that, and makes Shane's passing even more painful

Rest in Peace and Power and Paradise, Mr. MacGowan -- thank you always
