We were invited (thank you, Than) to attend Monday night’s American Cinematheque Honors as they bestowed their 23rd annual prize on Samuel L. Jackson at the Beverly Hilton.
The show, which will be broadcast on AMC December 9th, offered the usual: speeches filled with platitudes followed by far more engaging montages of Jackson’s work (though it was noticeably heavy on Pulp Fiction and The Man). But here’s a peek at some of the more interesting events of Monday’s taping, most of which will have to be heavily bleeped when it airs.
