Celebrate National Hot Dog Day with a Special Weiner-Dog at Picturehouse Central

On Thursday 14 July, Picturehouse Central on Shaftesbury Avenue will launch a “Wiener-Dog” hot dog stand to celebrate National Hot Dog Day as well as the upcoming release of Todd Solondz’ Wiener-Dog which is in cinemas from 12 August.

The hot dog stand will be stationed at Picturehouse Central on Thursday 14th July and every weekend until the film’s release.

Wiener-Dog tells several stories featuring people who find their life inspired or changed by one particular dachshund, who seems to be spreading a certain kind of comfort and joy. Man’s best friend starts out teaching a young boy some contorted life lessons before being taken in by a compassionate vet tech named Dawn Wiener (Greta Gerwig). Dawn reunites with someone from her past and sets off on a road trip picking up some depressed mariachis along the way. Wiener-Dog then encounters a floundering film professor (Danny DeVito), as well as an embittered elderly woman (Ellen Burstyn) and her needy granddaughter (Zosia Mamet) – all longing for something more.
