Wild Side, the new film from French director
            Sebastien Lifshitz (Come Undone), opens Friday,
            June 24, at the Regent Showcase, 614 N. La Brea Ave. in Los
            Angeles.       Inspired by Lou Reed's "Walk on the Wild

            whose two male lovers accompany her to       the French
            countryside when she is called home to take care of her
            dying       mother. For more information, visit         the film's official site.
