BREAKING: Altman Extends New York Tour to Pioneer Theater

This just in: Robert Altman will wind down his Shermanesque march through New York on June 13, when he will appear at the Pioneer Theater to discuss a program of rarely screened shorts. While the selections have not yet been finalized, Pioneer programmer Ray Privett sends word that early picks include The Party (which I had not heard of previously and could not even find on IMDB) and the 1965 tandem The Kathryn Reed Story and Pot au feu.

Longtime Altman associate Matthew Seig will host the event; the pair last visited the Pioneer in 2003 to screen Altman's 1984 film Secret Honor. Tickets run $30 apiece and are available now--and not likely for long--on the Pioneer's Web site.
