Though on first glance this pairing seems an unlikely double bill, the fine folks at the New Beverly know what they\u2019re doing, and this will make for an evening of subliminal messages and energizing subversion. Directed by John Carpenter<\/a> (who also wrote the screenplay under a pseudonym), 1988\u2019s \u201cThey Live\u201d comes on like an alien invasion B-movie about a drifter (wrestler-turned-actor Roddy Piper) who becomes part of the resistance, but reveals itself to be an angry rebuke of Reagan-era greed. 2001\u2019s \u201cJosie and the Pussycats,\u201d written and directed by Deborah Kaplan and Harry Elfont, is an uproarious satire of pop culture consumerism as a small-time rock band (Rachael Leigh Cook, Tara Reid and Rosario Dawson) come to realize the true aims of the record company that shoots them to stardom. (Parker Posey and Alan Cumming are camp delights as nefarious executives.) Though both movies are very much of their respective moments, they sadly still have a lot to say about our current one.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey Live\u201d is playing with \u201cJosie and the Pussycats\u201d on Oct. 10, 11 and 12 at the New Beverly. Tickets here.<\/a> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Though on first glance this pairing seems an unlikely double bill, the fine folks at the New Beverly…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":270378,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5123],"tags":[140540,1582,276,140541,74305,140542,125076,2961,224,5337,140545,140544,140543,95129,17851,140539,4377,38518,6620,14164],"class_list":{"0":"post-270377","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-los-angeles","8":"tag-academy-museum-oct","9":"tag-ca","10":"tag-california","11":"tag-cheap-movie","12":"tag-condor","13":"tag-joshua-rothkopf","14":"tag-karyn-kusama","15":"tag-la","16":"tag-los-angeles","17":"tag-losangeles","18":"tag-love-witch","19":"tag-mark-olsen","20":"tag-more-show","21":"tag-new-beverly","22":"tag-oct","23":"tag-old-film","24":"tag-screening","25":"tag-ticket","26":"tag-time","27":"tag-way"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115301446145731990","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/270377","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=270377"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/270377\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/270378"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=270377"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=270377"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=270377"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
