Saturday - Confessions of a Superhero

After a rocking radical opening night, the Alamo Ritz Theatre is now officially open for a business. Our first official special guest was Quentin Tarantino, who stopped by to introduce WAR OF THE GARGANTUAS as the very first Terror Thursday at the new theatre.

Our next live guest comes in this Saturday night, as we present the amazing and stupendous documentary about ordinary people dressing as people with extraordinary powers, CONFESSIONS OF A SUPERHERO. The film follows the dreams and adventures of four struggling actors who find themselves spending most of their days outside of Mann's Chinese Theater instead of on the screen inside. They don't just wander around in a daze looking for agents or producers, though; instead they earn their living by dressing up a superheroes and taking pictures with tourists. More than just scenery, though, these are method actors who take their roles seriously.

And none of them take their role more seriously than Superman, aka Christopher Dennis. Dennis lives and breathes Superman, with a home full of collectibles and an attitude that is determined to take his status as a role model seriously. How does he feel about the dichotomy of earning his living on the streets while still managing to feel super? Ask him yourself this Saturday night, when he and the producer/director of photography will be live in person at the 10:30 showing.

Tickets are available to all shows of CONFESSIONS right here.
