Film Join Me, Won't You, at Suburbia Tomorrow Night

Posted by Mark Asch on Fri, Aug 13, 2010 at 3:34 PM

As previously mentioned, Film Comment's Summer Meltdown series, at Lincoln Center, continues at 8pm tomorrow night, Saturday, with Suburbia, a Roger Corman-produced, Flea-from-Red Hot Chili Peppers-starring film about a community of L.A. punk drop-outs.

I'll be introducing the film, and discussing how well it fits on the c.v. of director Penelope Spheeris, right in between The Decline of Western Civilization and Wayne's World.
