Movies!

A message from Adam P.


Hello all,

This week boasts three urban planning-related events I am attending and would encourage you to do the same.

1.

On Tuesday at 20h00 there is a screening of Radiant City at Cinema Politica, McGill. Read about it here: http://www.cinemapolitica.org/films/426



It's a 2006 film showing a side of the suburbanite life, and boasts appearances from your favorite vitriolic urban critic, James Howard Kunstler, among others. It's Canadian and comedic. I will head down from our 4th floor hangout at around 19h40, if you would like to join me.

2.

On Friday at 19h30, there will be a world premiere screening of Roadsworth: Crossing the Line at Cinema Politica Concordia. Please let me know if you are interested in attending this event, and I would be glad to go with you. Read about it here: http://www.cinemapolitica.org/films/394 It is also part of Montreal's International Documentary Film Festival. www.ridm.qc.ca


SYNOPSIS - ROADSWORTH CROSSING THE LINE: Over a period of three years, the stencil artist Peter Gibson, aka Roadsworth, made his mark on Montreal in the early hours of the morning by launching a self-described "attack on the streets."


3.
