Cinema Jukebox | Wild Style
June 8, 2015 @ 7:00 pm - 9:30 pm
$9.25 – $11.25The original hip hop feature film, with director Charlie Ahern in person!
Wild Style follows the exploits of maverick tagger Zoro (real life graffiti artist Lee Quinones), whose work attracts the attention of an East Village art fancier (Patti Astor) who commissions him to paint the stage for a giant Rapper’s Convention.
A document of the earliest days of hip-hop in the boroughs of New York, everything in Wild Style is authentic – the story, style, characters, and most of the actors, are drawn from the community. It features a pantheon of old-school pioneers, including Grandmaster Flash, Busy Bee, The Cold Crush Brothers and more.
Cinema Jukebox is a new Coolidge signature film series that celebrates both your passion for movies and your love of music. We’ll feature everything from classics to concerts, with musicals and cult titles thrown in to create a perfect symphony of cinema.
