Parker Posey‘s cult-classic 1995 comedy PARTY GIRL has just been given a gore-geous restoration, and it’s hitting the Rio Theatre’s screen on Wednesday, May 17.

PARTY GIRL tells the story of Mary (Posey), a NYC nightclub scenester and social butterfly who rules the underground party scene. By day, however, she lacks purpose and enough funds to make rent. When her aunt gets her a job at the local library, Mary initially waffles under the constraints of the system, but then unexpectedly flourishes as a librarian (and does a lot of growing up along the way). The film features a laundry list of notable actors, including Liev Schreiber, Guillermo Diaz (“Scandal”), and John Ventimiglia (“The Sopranos”), and is brilliantly shot on location in pre-gentrification Lower Manhattan.
