Celebrate the Life of Death by Audio with GOODNIGHT BROOKLYN

This week at the Alamo Drafthouse, Brooklyn takes center stage with the release of Matthew Conboy's documentary GOODNIGHT BROOKLYN: THE STORY OF DEATH BY AUDIO, following the last weeks of legendary Brooklyn venue Death by Audio. Founded by Oliver Ackermann, Edan Wilber, and director Matthew Conboy in 2005, Death by Audio served as an incubator for underground music, art, and a non-traditional living environment until Vice Media took over the space in 2014. To celebrate the film's release, Matthew Conboy will appear in person for Q&As on 12/2 and 12/3. Following the screening on 12/2, join Conboy and the Alamo in celebrating the life of Death by Audio with an afterparty in the House of Wax featuring a live performance by Drawing Boards.

If the story of Death by Audio is too loud, three silent short films by Charlie Chaplin will screen on December 4th in Flicker Alley's stunning restoration of CHAPLIN AT ESSANAY. Featuring Chaplin's comedic shorts A NIGHT IN THE SHOW, THE TRAMP, and THE BANK, the screening of these hundred-year-old short films will include live organ accompaniment by Ben Model.

Later in the week on December 8th, check out a special preview screening of Clay Liford's SLASH, following the sexually awkward, questioning teen Neil as he becomes immersed in the world of erotic slash fiction. The screening will include a Q&A with Liford and stars Hannah Marks (Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency) and Michael Johnston (Teen Wolf). Also on December 8th, Shouting at the Screen is back in Brooklyn, with Wyatt Cenac and Donwill presenting another fun night of obscure trivia, drinking games, and classic blaxploitation cinema.
