Jan 30. THE PANIC AT NEEDLE PARK w/cast, crew
A dramatic debut of sorts for Al Pacino, this film couldn’t be more “New York”. Needle Park is the intersection of 72nd street and Broadway and is where the drug deals go down. A non-traditional, almost documentary style film, Pacino often improvised on set while remaining true to the script co-written by the brilliant Joan Didion. Kitty Winn as decent southerner and Al Pacino as the boyfriend from hell - it’s not to be missed.
The film plays at Film Forum throughout the weekend but catch Director Jerry Schatzberg, co-star Kitty Winn and co-screenwriter Joan Didion at the 7:40 show on January 30th!
