With all the amazing things going on for New Year’s Eve, I would admire anyone with enough endurance to continue to party throughout the rest of the weekend. Still, when it comes to Mission night-life, the party never stops, does it?
Dancing With the Devil
“Oscar, Emmy and BAFTA award-winning director and producer Jon Blair takes us into the favelas of Rio de Janeiro for a close look at the running battle between the drug lords who control entire areas of the city and the police.”
If one of your resolutions is to see more films then be sure to see “Dancing With the Devil” at the Roxie Theater. The film runs January 1st-7th. See Roxie for movie times. 3117 16th St. 415.863.1087
