NO PICNIC Filmmaker Philip Hartman

In today's episode, filmmaker Philip Hartman discusses the enduring resonance of NO PICNIC, his gritty 1986 neo-noir drama and priceless artifact of pre-gentrication East Village, with film critic and writer Mark Asch in a conversation recorded at Film Forum specifically for this podcast. A new 4K restoration of NO PICNIC has been playing to sold-out crowds since it opened with us on April 20 of this year. We highly recommend that you read Mark's excellent article about the film at www.hellgatenyc.com. Photo by Chris Grubb.
