Wholphin #5 DVD Release
Wholphin is a quarterly DVD magazine of rare and unseen short films distributed by McSweeney's. Past issues have included Spike Jonze's lost Al Gore doc from the 2000 election, a student film by Alexander Payne, an excerpt from Errol Morris' aborted Movie Movie project, Dennis Hopper's explosive 1983 performance art piece, a made-for-Wholphin short by Steven Soderbergh, Adam Curtis' terrifying documentary, The Power of Nightmares, and more.
For the release of their upcoming fifth issue, they are having their first ever LA screening which will likely involve short films about- and live entertainment from- drunk bees, bioluminescent squirt guns, a crying competition, Satanic nine-year-olds, super-slo-motion tongues, and if we're lucky, a never-before-seen short film by Paul Thomas Anderson starring Elliot Smith as a Rastafarian basketball player with a cameo by Bette Midler. Beats SARS.
Tickets - $6
611 N Fairfax Avenue, Los Angeles, 90036 / 323-655-2510

So I don't know what "if you're lucky" means, it is for sure or not? :darn:
I have also found this:
"i’ve just been informed by wholphin magazine that due to paul thomas anderson’s promo duties for ‘there will be blood’, the long lost elliott smith short directed by paul won’t show up until their sixth issue, being released in mid 2008.
if you still need an elliott smith fix, pick up autumn de wilde’s new book ‘elliott smith’, full of pictures and new interviews with lots of awesome people. the book also includes some recordings from elliott’s live performances at largo."
