Event
Double Bill: Hal and Shampoo @ 27th Annual Whitaker St. Louis International Film Festival
(Amy Scott, U.S., 2018, 90 min.)
(Hal Ashby, U.S., 1975, 110 min.)
Although Hal Ashby directed a remarkable string of acclaimed, widely admired classics throughout the 1970s Harold and Maude, The Last Detail, Shampoo, Coming Home, Being There hes often overlooked amid the crowd of luminaries from his generation. Amy Scotts exuberant portrait drawn from rare archival materials, interviews, personal letters, and audio recordings explores that curious oversight, revealing a passionate, obsessive artist. Ashbys films were guided by compassion and deep engagement with social justice, class, and race. Hal plays on a double bill with a restored version of Shampoo, one of the directors finest works, which recounts an especially eventful day in the life of George (Warren Beatty), a Beverly Hills hairdresser and lothario who frantically runs around town on the eve of the 1968 presidential election trying to sort out his many financial and romantic entanglements.
