'Master' shoots an Aero through film fans' hearts
Fever for Paul Thomas Anderson's "The Master" was stoked late Friday by a surprise screening at Santa Monica's Aero Theater, rewarding those who had turned out to see a new print of "The Shining." Details on the enthusiastically received night can be found via Sasha Stone at Awards Daily, Jeffrey Wells at Hollywood Elsewhere, Kris Tapley at In Contention, Russ Fischer at SlashFilm and Oliver Lyttleton at the Playlist.
"The Master" recently had its opening date moved up to Sept. 14, following an official premiere at the Venice Film Festival.
A native of Los Angeles raised by two parents and "Hill Street Blues," Jon Weisman ankled his scriptwriting career and began working for Variety in 2004, subsequently serving as associate editor of features and television reporter before becoming awards editor. He promises not to use this platform to retroactively campaign for Oscars for “The Misfits,” though he’d feel justified in doing so.
