Overnight is filmmaking's greatest rise and fall and quasi-rise-again story. A timeless intimate digital epic of ego, dealmaking, and drinking in late 1990s Hollywood, the film is a behind the scenes story of the Pyrrhic victories, wild indignities, and shady business that birthed The Boondock Saints. It is also an incredible insight into why you may never want to volunteer to let your friends document your meteoric success. Unsurprisingly, the filmmakers and subject have not spoken since its release.
By turns mesmerizing, star-studded, instructive as a cautionary tale, and profoundly quotable, this making-and-unmaking-and making-of documentary classic will be accompanied by the theatrical premiere of a secret short film!
Stay tuned for more screenings as part of Hollywood Entertainment's recurring series "Art Is Easy" featuring true and invented tales of agony and ecstasy, underdogs, success, and failure in the production of art.
