The KCET Cinema Series continues its winter season at the ArcLight Cinemas, Sherman Oaks on Tuesday, November 1 with "Bleed for This." The film is based on the true story of boxer Vinny Pazienza — "the boxing champ who had a horrendous accident that would have ended anybody's career, or life, and winds up coming back to fight again," explains KCET Cinema Series host Pete Hammond. Miles Teller, who stars as Pazienza, Aaron Eckhart, Katey Sagal and director Ben Younger will join Hammond for a Q&A session following the screening.
Generously sponsored by the E. Hofert Dailey Trust, the winter season of the KCET Cinema Series runs at the ArcLight through December 13. Tickets for all movie screenings are now sold out.
