Ed Harris & Special Guests for Our Throwback Thursday KNIGHTRIDERS Screening this Week!

by

KNIGHTRIDERS star Ed Harris will attend our post screening Q&A after the August 31 screening at the NoHo! Stunt coordinator Gary Davis and actress-stuntwoman Jennifer Elizabeth will also attend.

George A. Romero’s KNIGHTRIDERS may well be the only cycle flick ever to be played out in suits of armor. A hardcase motorcycle gang led by Ed Harris has found itself a neat money-making gimmick. Dressed as the knights of the round table, the cyclists pick up a few bucks at local “renaissance” fairs, selling handicrafts made by the more talented members of the gang. Harris’ great rival is Tom Savini, who has his own band of “black knights.” Keep an eye out for a chucklesome unbilled bit by novelist Stephen King.

Q&As with TALES OF AN IMMORAL COUPLE Director and Actor Opening Weekend in Beverly Hills and Pasadena

by

TALES OF AN IMMORAL COUPLE Director Manolo Caro will participate in Q&As following the 2:40pm show at the Music Hall on Saturday, August 26 and following 1:00pm screening on Sunday, August 27 at the Playhouse 7. Actor Manuel Garcia Rulfo will join him at the Music Hall. Tickets.

TALES OF AN IMMORAL COUPLE (LA VIDA INMORAL DE LA PAREJA IDEAL) centers on Lucio and Martina, two former lovers whose passionate romance began while attending a strict Catholic high school in Mexico. Twenty-five five years later, they unexpectedly run into each other in the city of San Miguel de Allende and despite still sharing an undiminished love for one another they both pretend to be in happy marriages––even if it’s all lies. As they try to maintain their facades, a comedy of errors ensues that reveals the true reasons why the couple ended up separating in the first place.
