Save the dates: Crispin Glover at the Plaza Theatre, Aug. 29-30

Yup, you read it right. Everybody's favorite Hellion, Crispin Glover (pictured, in Epic Movie), will host a two-night stand at the Plaza Theatre in which the sometimes brilliant actor, director and author will show off his stuff.

This, according to a press release from the Plaza's Jonathan Rej:

The evening begins with Crispin Hellion Glover's Big Slide Show, an hour-long dramatic presentation in which the actor narrates images from eight of his illustrated story books. The feature film It Is Fine! EVERYTHING IS FINE. screens next, followed by a question & answer period moderated by Crispin himself, who will then sign books (for sale in the lobby) after the Q&A session.

It Is Fine! EVERYTHING IS FINE. goes into uncharted cinematic territory with screenwriter Steven C. Stewart starring in this semi-autobiographical, psycho-sexual, tale about a man with severe cerebral palsy and a fetish for girls with long hair. Part horror film, part exploitation picture and part documentary of a man who cannot express his sexuality in the way he desires, (due to his physical condition), this fantastical and often humorous tale is told completely from Stewarts actual point of view as that of someone who has lived for years watching people do things he will never be able to do. Here, Stewarts character is something of a lady-killer, seducing a troubled, recently divorced mother (Margit Carstensen), her teenage daughter and any number of other ladies he encounters along the way. According to Crispin Glover, Stewart "wanted to show that handicapped people are human, sexual and can be horrible. He also states that It is Fine! EVERYTHING IS FINE. will probably be the best film he has anything to do with in his entire career. Crispin Glover and his co-director David Brothers wanted to bring Stewart’s story to the screen.
