Hot. Reckless. Totally Insane.

This past Sunday the Levi’s Film Workshop in conjunction with MOCA’s “Art In The Streets” exhibit held a screening of classic skateboarding movie, Thrashin’, for it’s 25th anniversary. The sold out screening was held at the Silent Movie Theatre on Fairfax in Los Angeles and featured a Q&A with some of the cast and crew after the movie.

Here are a few photos I took at the screening…

    The fact that Josh Brolin’s wristguards are on upside-down on the poster always cracked me up… :)
