RASHOMON IS PLAYING AT THE NUART blares the headline on the LA Times [web] today.
Followed by a nice sentence: The beautifully restored print of Akira Kurosawa's landmark 1950 drama "Rashomon" visits the Nuart Theatre for a one-week engagement beginning Friday.
Nice press, you say?
Yes.
The only problem is Rashomon actually closes tonight.
It opened last Friday.
Nice work LA Times. This is what you get with a depleted staff at a sinking newspaper? If anything you'd think the Arts & Entertainment section would be their strongest department. [Sigh].
BTW I saw Rashomon last night. And the print never looked better. The black and white is ravishing.
