Film

'The Cool School' at Northwest Film Forum

"Even though we didn't have any evidence, we were completely convinced we were doing the right thing, and that everybody else was full of shit." That's what now-legendary artist Robert Irwin says of the early days of L.A.'s contemporary art scene, remembered vividly in Morgan Neville's fun, fast-paced, jazz-and-testosterone-fueled new documentary, The Cool School. Everybody's in there, and there's even a black-and-white, Broadway Danny Rose–style reunion of the old guys—Irwin, Craig Kauffman, Ken Price, et al. (Northwest Film Forum, 1515 12th Ave, 329-2629. 7:15 and 9:15 pm, $5–$8.50, Feb 22–28.)
