Join SFAI for the closing celebration of WRONG'S WHAT I DO BEST featuring a beer garden hosted by Fort Point Beer Company and a special outdoor screening of the 1983 drama "Tender Mercies." Starring Robert Duvall as washed-up country music star Mac Sledge, the film was a critical success, winning Best Original Screenplay for Horton Foote and earning Duvall his first and only Academy Award to date for Best Actor.
Wrong's What I Do Best gathers the self-searing impulses of artists and musicians playing the role of one’s self as someone else. Working against both correctness and failure, Wrong's What I Do Best revels in repeated derailments to present the work of artists who prod the edges of our world.
