This upcoming weekend at the Walker, Esther Robinson’s documentary A Walk into the Sea is playing. The documentary is a..”personal inquiry into the truth behind her Uncle Danny Williams’ mysterious 1966 disappearance. Virtually unknown today, Danny was Andy Warhol’s lover, and a promising young filmmaker. The discovery of 20 never-before-seen films Williams made during his time at the Factory– and whose many subjects include Andy Warhol, Edie Sedgwick, Paul Morrissey, Brigid Berlin, Billy Name and what may be the earliest known footage of the Velvet Underground– reveals a luminous talent and a stark gap in the historical record. Combined with Robinson’s intimate interviews of surviving Factory members, the film gets beyond the icons and quietly dismantles the Warhol myth-making machine, allowing a deeper examination of the human fragility on which Andy Warhol’s empire was built.”
In addition to being able to see Esther’s new documentary (click here for the screening times and dates) – Sunday the Walker is playing all of Danny Williams’ films with live music by the Quavers.
Anyway, its $5 dollars for students something cool and cheap to do on a Sunday night.
Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
