Watch: New Beverly Ex-Manager Julia Marchese’s Documentary on 35mm and Rep Cinema
Out Of Print from John T. Woods on Vimeo.
For many years one of the public faces of Los Angeles’ New Beverly Cinema, today Julia Marchese posted an unnerving account of her experience since Quentin Tarantino became the theater’s owner and programmer. It’s worth reading in full, but the gist is that Tarantino’s team put inexplicably tight social media muzzles on all staff and effectively fired (“demoted”) Marchese less than two weeks after her promotion to a managerial role. In short: her hopes dashed for a New Beverly 35mm premiere of her documentary Out of Print — about the importance of 35mm repertory cinema in general and the theater in particular — Marchese has posted her labor of love on Vimeo.
