My Own Private Idaho in 35mm

MY OWN PRIVATE IDAHO in 35MMMY OWN PRIVATE IDAHO | PG 1h 44mGus Van Sants My Own Private Idaho continues to resonate with audiences after 35 years, exploring themes of masculinity and unrequited love through the eyes of characters living on the margins of society. Starring Keanu Reeves and the late River Phoenix as two street hustlers searching for meaning beyond the world of junkies, thieves and johns, My Own Private Idaho brilliantly captures the emotions of longing for queer love in a hopeless place. This trailblazing film, one of Van Sants most celebrated works, features some of his most arresting imagery and unforgettable dialogue. Loosely based on Shakespeares Henry IV, My Own Private Idaho is a haunting tale highlighted by iconic, yet understated performances from its two leads. Also starring the late Udo Kier, My Own Private Idaho deserves to be seen on the big screen, so please join us at The Castro Theatre for a special 35MM presentation of this groundbreaking work of 90s queer cinema.*PLEASE NOTE: ID MAY BE REQUIRED AT VENUE FOR STUDENT/SENIOR TICKETS*
