KIDS IN THE HALL. CHALET 2000.
FUCKING SUBLIME.

Bon Iver is listing things it pains him to see by themselves. A single work glove peppered with sawdust. A tattered snowshoe abandoned at the trailhead. A lone badminton racquet with a broken handle no one’s bothered to fix. And me.

Will Hines edited and emailed around to UCB staff and players notes student Nick Feitel took of a recent lecture by Matt Besser on what he thinks should be UCB-style improv. Here’s most of that email, but there was an additional section on terminology that’s missing from the post. In the…

Trilogies, blood, and sunglasses: Your weekend movies for 6/1-6/3
Hey you! It’s JUNE! No more screwing around, you - it’s summer for REAL REAL. Yeah yeah, whatever calendar nerds, I know it technically starts on June 20th or 21st or whenever the moon says but popular culture and I say it starts right after Memorial Day so DEAL WITH IT. Sorry, I’ll stop yelling. I just think it’s really important that you get your life in order before suddenly it’s August and you realize you still don’t have proper sunglasses. But we’ll get there later… let’s start with movies.
Sure, you’ve seen Star Wars (right??), but have you seen Star Wars through the eyes of superfans? No, I’m not talking about your local sci-fi convention, but Star Wars Uncut, a tribute film created by 473 Lucas-lovers and assembled by director Casey Pugh. Each fan was assigned a fifteen-second section of Episode IV: A New Hope to recreate as they saw fit - which results in some animation, some puppets, and a whole lot of masks. Let’s hope Pugh’s going to tackle Episodes V and VI too because I want to call dips on the Ewok dance.
6/1, Francesca Beale Theater, midnight, $13
Speaking of trilogies, Film Forum is dishing out Sergio Leone’s classic “Man With No Name” triple hitter as part of its Spaghetti Westerns series. Hells yes - THEY know how to kick off summer. Jump in on Friday or Saturday with part one, A Fistful of Dollars. This is the film that threw Mr. Clint Eastwood (and, possibly, ponchos as a fashion choice) into our consciousness and kicked off the trend of Italian masters classing up the Western genre. OH and if all that history doesn’t win you over, Ennio Morricone’s epic music will.
6/1 at 3:20pm and 7:30pm & 6/2 at 1pm, Film Forum, $12.50
Maybe you like to kick of summer with some late-night blood and gore? OK fine, creepster. Sunshine has you covered for this weekend’s midnights with Wes Craven’s The Last House on the Left. Sure, the plot is a little contrived and the violence is brutal, but isn’t that what makes a good slasher? This revenge fantasy paved the way for a ton of other teenagers-getting-knifed movies - especially Craven’s later gems A Nightmare on Elm Street and Scream. You still might want to watch some cartoons before you go to bed though….
6/1 & 6/2, Landmark Sunshine Cinema, midnight, $10
I don’t know if I can properly convey how psyched I am for Museum of the Moving Image’s latest series, Paramount in the 1970s. What if I use CAPS LOCK AND GRATUITOUS PUNCTUATION??!!!???!! You get it, right? I mean, just check out this whole lineup. Gorgeous. I recommend blocking off most of your Saturday or Sunday to catch back-to-back screenings of The Godfather and The Godfather: Part II - because if you’re going to see part one you might as well power through part two, right? And then you can um… see Part III on your own time. With some booze.
6/2 & 6/3, Museum of the Moving Image, The Godfather at 2pm and The Godfather: Part II at 6pm, $12
As for sunglasses, I recommend these, obviously.

Upright Citizens Brigade- Shut Up!
A couple’s son can only say “Shut up.” There’s just something about being told to shut up that is infuriating. This sketch I remember well from the first time I saw it during the series’ run. I love how sincere the parents are trying to be, that they are trying to treat their son like any other kid who may have a problem (though it’s a nice, bizarre touch that he is kept hidden away in a basement or something). Each person’s reaction to the son, though rooted in anger, is slightly different, so it’s not just repetitive. For anyone who does long form improv through the UCB, you can see easily how this could have come from an improv scene, perhaps even verbatim.
