Synopsis:
Calgary Cinematheque Presents: Times Square (1980)
This film follows two girls from opposite sides of the track who find themselves confined to the same mental hospital. One is there due to a run-in with the police, the other sent by her prominent father. The two develop a bond and decide to escape and run away to the streets of Times Square, New York.
Alongside a radio DJ (Tim Curry) who updates his listeners on their exploits, the two become cult heroes to many young girls in the city. Set to a backdrop of punk rock music, the film embodies the youthful urge to push back against authority.
