Deeper Into Movies and Youth Lagoon present a rare screening of Gus Van Sant's classic Drugstore Cowboy.
An addiction drama based on James Fogle’s autobiographical novel, captures the zonked-out textures and almost surreal absurdity of a life lived fix to fix. Swinging between dope-fueled disconnection and edgy paranoia, Matt Dillon plays the leader of a ragtag crew (also featuring Kelly Lynch, Heather Graham, and James Le Gros) that robs pharmacies for pills, coasting across the 1970s Pacific Northwest while trying to outrun sobriety and fate. With a brilliant supporting turn from counterculture high priest William S. Burroughs and a lyrical feeling for the streetscapes of Van Sant’s hometown of Portland, Oregon, Drugstore Cowboy cemented the director’s status as a preeminent poet of outsiderhood.
Youth Lagoon, the moniker of Idaho-based songwriter and producer Trevor Powers, returns with “Rarely Do I Dream,” an album where storybook innocence dissolves into a radioactive billow of teenage drifters, drug-addled hustlers, and old-world folklore. Rooted in love and childhood memoir, Powers said, “I wanted to make an album that feels like life itself.
To celebrate the release Trevor has selected this dreamy drifty movie which echo the spirit and feel of the record.
There will be a pre-film talk with Trevor Powers and Steven T. Hanley of Deeper Into Movies
Doors at 20:30 / Event starts at 21:00
