From director Alex Ross Perry (Her Smell) comes a kaleidoscopic portrait of 90s rock band Pavement. Spanning behind-the-scenes documentary, jukebox musical, prestige biopic, and museum exhibition, Pavements is a funny and idiosyncratic tribute to a one-of-a-kind band and a one-of-a-kind inventive formal exercise exploring the music film genre. Produced and edited by Columbia's own Robert Greene.
The 1PM screening of Pavements on Sunday, June 22 will be followed by a Q&A with Robert Greene, moderated by Ragtag Film Society co-founder David Wilson.
"In an age of musical biopic plenty, this semi-ironic, postmodern take — which runs through Perry's part drama, part documentary, and part mockumentary — may be just what the doctor ordered."
–Siddhant Adlakha, Mashable
"Just because Pavements is a prankish film about a prankish band doesn't make it any less deeply heartfelt. It’s one for the fans – and we are legion."
–Kimberley Jones, Austin Chronicle
"Beavis & Butthead (hilariously) suggested Pavement needed to “try harder.” You certainly can’t lob that criticism at Alex Ross Perry, who crafts a mock-biopic, art installation and jukebox musical all in service of a heartfelt documentary tribute."
