CinemaFest to bring short films to BAM
If you go by the old adage that less is more, then you might not want to miss the collection of original short films interspersed with the features selected for CinemaFest at the Brooklyn Academy of Music (BAM) this month.
The festival kicks off Wednesday evening with “The End of the Tour,” starring Jason Segel as author David Foster Wallace and Jesse Eisenberg as reporter David Lipsky. James Ponsoldt’s screenplay, based on Lipsky’s memoir, follows five days spent together by author and reporter.
