About this event

What a surprise! Avon is actually playing John Wilson's The History of Concrete . I'm not able to do an AS220 or The Space screening this month, so might as well support an independent theater and an original voice like John Wilson. Between this and You Can See Everything , documentaries are hot hot hot right now!

After attending a workshop on how to write and sell a Hallmark movie, filmmaker John Wilson attempts to utilize the same commercial formula to create and sell a documentary about the history of concrete. The project evolves into a humorous and philosophical exploration of urbanism, the built environment, and the mundane textures of American life.

Join us on Saturday, November 7th for the 4:10pm showing of The History of Concrete at Avon Cinema. Afterwards, for anyone interested, we'll go to The Point Tavern in Fox Point for a post-movie drink and/or food.

Meet in the area past the usher and behind the theater seats at 3:50pm. We'll try to sit together as a group. If you're running late, sit wherever you'd like. We'll meet in the same place after it's over. Drop a comment if you have any questions!
