Northwest Film Forum is having a Hal Ashby film series this summer. Even if you don’t recognize his name, you’ve probably seen one of his movie as he was responsible for some of the most iconic movies made in the 1970’s, including Harold and Maude, Shampoo, Coming Home and Being There. All of those films (plus The Landlord, The Last Detail, and Bound for Glory will be screened during the series, which runs from July 1 through August 20.

To kick off the series, NWFF has invited actor/comedian Bobcat Goldthwait, himself an Ashby fan, to introduce The Landlord on Tuesday, July 1. As an added bonus, Goldthwait fans are invited to have a private drink with Goldthwait as part of a small group who will meet at the Grey Gallery before heading over to the film. Tickets for the film will be available at the door, but admission to the special event is by advance ticket only at Brown Paper Tickets.
