The Long And The Short of It
A Goforaloop Gallery & Studios Film Series
On Thursday May 30, 2013 at 7:00pm Goforaloop Gallery & Studios is offering filmmakers and cinephiles an exciting opportunity to view the short films of local filmmakers alongside the early works of today’s top directors. The Long And The Short of It is a monthly film series hosted by Goforaloop Gallery & Studios, located at 1458 San Bruno Avenue in the Mission District of San Francisco. Each month will showcase a variety of feature and short films, in an atmosphere dedicated to fostering connections between filmmakers.
This month we will feature Paul Thomas Anderson’s short film Cigarettes and Coffee, along with his first full length feature Hard Eight. Cigarettes and Coffee, released in 1993 and starring Philip Baker Hall, helped to launch Anderson’s career and was used as a basis for Hard Eight. Hard Eight, released in 1996, is a story which attempts to navigate the world of gambling and stars Phillip Baker Hall, along with a young John C. Reilly, Gwyneth Paltrow, Samuel L. Jackson and Philip Seymour Hoffman.
Future events will feature films by directors such as Martin Scorsese, David Lynch, Joel and Ethan Coen, Quentin Tarantino, and more.
