Dude in a fedora, just now, as I leave a bar: "Well, STADIUM ARCADIUM is their masterpiece…"

1. LA DOLCE VITA! Saturday afternoon at the Alamo Drafthouse, as part of Negroni Week 2016!
2. PITCH PERFECT! Saturday night in Dolores Park, as part of this year’s Film Night in the Park programming!

Woohoo!

My wish came true! Let’s all be sure to eat dinner there a lot and maybe they can expand to more than just Friday-Sunday, am I right?

Now please enjoy all this previous (and sometimes controversial) St. Francis Fountain coverage…

Shaking hands with local politician Tom Temprano no less!

And on the big (huge) main screen at the Alamo, in 35mm!! The screening is tonight at 10:10pm, one time only, and there are still some great seats left!

Over the past year, the so-called Beast On Bryant at 2000-2070 Bryant St. has become a flash point for what most San Franciscans agree has become a crisis, the impact that an extreme influx of wealth and speculative investment is having on a neighborhood famous for its arts and working-class Latino community.
