Film Screening: Fuck w/Stephen Colbert short "Shock Asylum" January 19, 2007

Friday Jan 19. 7:00 PM. Admission: $7.00. Location: Fools Foundation - 1025 19th St, Sacramento, CA - off K St between 19th & 20th next to the back end of Old Spaghetti Factory.

The movie that dare not speak its name - aka. The Four Letter Word Movie. From the folks who brought you "The Aristocrats." How can we NOT run a film with a title like this? And on top of that, look at the cast in this: Janeane Garofalo, Bill Maher, Pat Boone, Ron Jeremy, Ice-T, Hunter S. Thompson (in one of his last interviews), Drew Carey, Sam Donaldson, Alanis Morissette, Kevin Smith, Alan Keyes, Tera Patrick, Steven Bochco, Michael Medved and many, many more! Featuring animation by the great Bill Plympton. Documentary on the 600+ year old word focuses on free speech and censorship issues (including the spike in indecency complaints to the FCC since 2000), origin and history of the word and its cultural significance.

"Surprising and thought-provoking. 'Fuck' is as funny and cathartic as the word it celebrates, and nearly as perversely shock-happy." - LA Times.

"Appropriately colorful. Lively. Enlightening." - Hollywood Reporter

We haven't actually seen this yet, but we'd bet it contains a fair amount of harsh language...

"Fuck" will play with the 1997 Shock Productions short film "Shock Asylum" with Stephen Colbert and Paul Dinello and written by Dan and Paul Dinello with Stephen Colbert. A twisted black comic tale of a routine psychological examination gone horribly awry!
