Rustin Thompson | The Last Picture Shows

Next up, we have Rustin Thompson, a Seattle-based writer and filmmaker whose documentaries include 30 Frames A Second, My Mother Was Here and Slow Revolution. His latest film, The Last Picture Shows, explores independent movie theaters and the people keeping them alive. He’s here to talk about the film, its upcoming screening at Rialto Cinemas Sebastopol, and one of the theaters featured in it—Sonoma County’s own Monte Rio Theater.
