Here’s a golden opportunity to see a 14 year old Matt Dillon in his first film role in ‘Over The Edge,’ a 70’s masterpiece of teen angst screening at the IFC Center tonight at 8pm. Inspired by actual events the film follows a group of rebellious teens as they drink and drug their way into all kinds of trouble, supported by an eclectic soundtrack including tunes by Cheap Trick, The Cars and The Ramones.

So controversial in it’s time this cult classic was shelved for two years by it’s distributor Orion before the release. The film is part of filmmakers Ira Sachs and Adam Baran‘s Queer/Art/Film series and is being presented by Amos Mac, one of the founding editors of Original Plumbing, a publication “dedicated to the culture and lifestyle of transgender men.”

After the screening trot on over to Julius Bar in the West Village for cocktails and discussion of the flic.

8:00PM, IFC Center, 323 Sixth Ave at West 3rd St. NY, NY.
