The MUFF Society: Death Proof
Pop-Up Shop + Photobooth: 8:00 PM
Film: 9:00 PM
Tickets: $10!!!!!!
Fair ladies and gentlemen, your chariot awaits. And it is 100% death proof. Join us on June 14th for a screening of Quentin Tarantino's explosive DEATH PROOF, where every seat in the theatre is death proof (we promise).
You may be wondering, "Why a Quentin Tarantino film?" Well, we have two words for you: Sally Menke. She worked with Tarantino editing every single one of his films up until her death in 2010. Tarantino often described Menke as his "only, truly genuine collaborator." Last year we celebrated another badass editor/director relationship (GOODFELLAS, edited by her majesty Thelma Schoonmaker) and it was high time we did the same for Sally. (Hi Sally!)
And you may also be wondering, "Okay, well why DEATH PROOF then?" Well, we have two more words for you: Zoë Bell. Tarantino wrote her role especially for her after being blown away by her stunt work on KILL BILL. And, damn skippy, you haven't lived until you've seen that car chase scene with her strapped to the hood of the car.
So come and celebrate Sally Menke, Zoë Bell, all the other incredible women in this movie, feet, and Kurt Russell getting beat up by said incredible women with us.
We will be announcing our mini MUFF short film and pop-up vendors shortly!
A big thank you to our MUFF Friends & sponsors of this event: Imagine Cinemas Carlton, The Beguiling, The Candy Bar, Condom Shack, and TOA Print & Promote. Check back closer to the event for more sponsor announcements.

ABOUT THE MUFF SOCIETY
The MUFF Society (Monthly Underground Female Film Society) is a feminist screening series based in Toronto, (with prior pop-ups in New York City and San Francisco). We aim to champion women in film both on and off screen and we do this by programming films that have awesome female characters and/or have powerhouse female players behind the scenes: directors, writers, editors, producers etc. We are also an online community that aims to keeps the conversations about women in film flowing and supports and promotes other film events and initiatives which are focused on women in film.
