If you see only seven films at this year’s LAFF, make it these

THE BOYS AND GIRLS GUIDE TO GETTING DOWN (USA) Writer-director Paul Sapiano’s primer on Los Angeles nightlife follows a collection of hard-partying Angelenos over one long bender of casual sex and recreational drug use. Styled as a straight-faced informational film — complete with dry, British-accented voice-over — Guide includes lessons on how to drive drunk “safely” and why cocaine is a “fun” drug when snorted but a “sketchy” one when smoked. Generous minds may regard this as satire; others (including this reviewer), as a repellent, flash-in-the-pan bid for hipster chic. (Majestic Crest; Sun., June 25, 7:30 p.m.; Tues., June 27, 4:45 p.m.) (SF)
