Florence and the Machine time at Village East Cinema



The Village East Cinema on Second Avenue at East 12th Street is prepping for tonight's U.S. theatrical premiere of "The Odyssey," a 47-minute film that strings together video clips released in 2015 of songs from Florence and the Machine's latest album, "How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful," per Rolling Stone.

Here's more from the film's director, Vincent Haycock:

"Like the layers of Dante's purgatory, each song or chapter represents a battle that Florence traversed ... that embodied each song or story," he said.

And here's a clip of Florence...



As for the one-night-only screening at 7, it's by invite. And the after party will NOT be held across the street at DumplingGO.

Thanks to EVG regular Daniel for the photo and info!

    Florence Henderson went on a date with Barry Williams when he was underage. She's a thoroughly disreputable character, despite her beauty and fly-over country talent.

    Anonymous 11:47 Read Barry's memoirs. He took her out to dinner. He had a crush on her. She did nothing.

    But thanks for keeping the comments real!
