PAVEMENTS

Special Features: Arrive early to watch a selection of Pavement music videos before the show

PAVEMENTS is a movie about Pavement the band — among other things. The latest film from acclaimed director Alex Ross Perry (HER SMELL) is a documentary that may or may not be entirely true, may or may not be totally sincere and may or may not be more about the idea of the band — or any band — than a history of the short-lived, passionately loved, commercially marginal ‘90s American alternative group Pavement. This unconventional film about a highly unconventional band incorporates elements of a stage musical, rock biopic and gallery exhibition, as well as archival footage and contemporary observational footage, to create a film as irreducible, uncharacterizable, and entertaining as the band and its music. Anchored by Pavement's slacker-sage-sphinx, Stephen Malkmus, the film features performances by Joe Keery, Jason Schwartzman, Tim Heidecker, Kathryn Gallagher, Michael Esper and Zoe Lister-Jones, and editing by nonfiction innovator Robert Greene (PROCESSION).
