Paranoid PArk in Portland

Paranoid theater opening tonight

Paranoid Park opens in Portland tonight. Gus Van Sant will introduce Friday’s 7PM show at Cinema 21. Gabe Nevins, who plays the lead part, will be hanging out for Q&A after the Saturday 7PM show. If you don’t get in to see the show, you can always watch the GVK of the casting session down at Burnside. (I don’t care what Grover says, I liked Elephant.) Oddly enough, the film is also showing on pay-per-view on the DirecTV in Portland and other markets as well.

Burnside Paranoid Park
Directed by Gus Van Sant
Showing: One Week: March 21 – 27
Showtimes: Nightly 7:00, 8:55/late Fri-Sat 10:30 plus Sat-Sun (1:00), 3:00, 5:00

If I had a nickel for every time I saw a kid skating in the rain with an umbrella… I heard that Gus’ production was going to/did donate money to Burnside. Can anyone confirm this?

– Thanks to Page for the tip.

  1. it’s available on Comcast OnDemand… been available for a while which is odd…
    There’s a ton of Slo Motion in this movie…necessarily

  2. I actually purchased this movie while in China. It was only $1.50. Jay Smay’s acting was actually pretty good, for the one scene he was in. The rest of the movie pretty much sucked.
