**25th anniversary screening**, followed by a **Q&A with actress Saffron Burrows**. **Doors:** 7:00 PM • **Film:** 7:30 PM One of the boldest experiments ever released by a major film studio, maverick filmmaker Mike Figgis turned heads with this split-screen thriller, starring an incredible cast of A-list actors and taking place entirely in real-time as four continuous 98-minute DV takes unfold on screen. On Sunset Blvd., on the stretch between Book Soup and Dialog Café, Figgis follows a group of Hollywood executives, actors and spouses (Salma Hayek, Stellan Skarsgard, Saffron Burrows, Holly Hunter, Kyle McLachlan, Leslie Mann, Jeanne Tripplehorn, Danny Huston, Xander Berkeley, Glenne Headly, Holly Hunter) ahead of a major pitch meeting, as adulteries and other overlapping dramas ensue in each of their personal lives. With its improvised dialogue and elaborate structural gambit, *Timecode *is a relic of the turn-of-the-millenium digital boom—at the height of the crossover between the American independent and commercial film industries—and an emblem of an era when anything felt possible. *“What is the purpose of the experiment? Above all, to show it can be done… Mike Figgis is a man who lives and breathes the cinema.”* — Roger Ebert *“An impressive stunt… surprisingly breezy to watch.”* — Dave Kehr
