damsels in distress

Last night Gothamist returned to Williamsburg's Nitehawk Cinema for a special screening of Whit Stillman's absurdly dry comedy Damsels in Distress.

On Tuesday June 5th, Whit Stillman will join us for a screening of Damsels in Distress (with special cocktails and food related to the film) at Nitehawk Cinema, followed by a Q&A and an after-party.

A journalist, a director, and a bottle of juice walk into the Sunshine Theater to prove a point, but does Mark Cuban care?

Last night 'It Girl' Lena Dunham made a dramatic Tweet: "Sh%t got pretty real between Whit Stillman, Chris Eigeman & me @BAMcinematek tonight. Was left feeling WASPishly peeved/aroused." Uh-oh, did someone start advocating Fourierism again?

Director Whit Stillman tells us about shooting his long-awaited new film Damsels in Distress on Staten Island, what took him so long, and how he soldiered on without Lena Dunham or Chris Eigeman.

The fourth feature from Stillman has been called an "utter delight."
