A Boy and His Dog
Introduced by Kirston Otis, Lead Audio-Visual Technician
The year is 2024. The world is still recovering from a worldwide catastrophe, watching films outside, with women’s rights under siege and leaders that are totalitarian weirdos. Oh, and dogs are telepathic. If this sounds familiar, you might be Don Johnson from Miami Vice. Or you might be Tiger, the shaggy dog from The Brady Bunch. And if neither of those applies to you, then you are actually in the world of A Boy and His Dog, L.Q. Jones’s influential film from 1975, brought to you on an original 35mm print from the 1975 theatrical run.
