        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>Update: The &#8220;Fast Times at Ridgemont High&#8221; live event has been &#8220;<strong>delayed due to technical difficulties</strong>.&#8221; A new date and time will be announced shortly. &#8220;We want to deliver the absolute best night of entertainment possible and raise money for two incredible organizations,&#8221; Dane Cook said in a statement. &#8220;The technical issues were insurmountable. Class will be back in session soon!!”&nbsp;</em></strong></p><p>The <strong>movie event</strong> of the summer isn&#8217;t even a movie — but it&#8217;s packed with A-list star power.</p><p>Dane Cook is presenting “Feelin’ A-Live,” a virtual live table read of “Fast Times at Ridgemont High,” which will stream Friday at 8 p.m. ET and 5 p.m. PST. Jimmy Kimmel and Brad Pitt <strong>will be joining</strong> Jennifer Aniston, John Legend, Julia Roberts, Morgan Freeman, Shia LaBeouf, Matthew McConaughey, Sean Penn, Ray Liotta and Henry Golding in the unrehearsed reading of the 1982 comedy classic.</p><p>The original air date was set for August 20, but was rescheduled to avoid conflict with <strong>Joe Biden’s speech</strong> at the Democratic National Convention.</p><p>“Upon realizing ‘Feelin’ A-Live’ was programmed opposite the DNC’s final night, we felt it was best to let the convention have its own evening, and then we’ll have ours,” said Cook in a statement. “Luckily, we were able to shift around some schedules — and add some stellar new cast members — so we’re thrilled to now get to kick off your weekend with a Friday night broadcast.”</p><h2>Where you can stream it</h2><p>The free virtual event will take place on <strong>Facebook Live</strong> and <strong>TikTok</strong> on Community Organized Relief Effort&#8217;s (CORE) official pages. It will also stream via <strong>LiveXLive</strong>.</p><p>“Fast Times at Ridgemont High” is a semi-autobiographical film, penned by Cameron Crowe, following a group of high-school students in southern California and their lives and loves. It has been praised for its accurate depiction of being a teenager in the early &#8217;80s.</p><p>The film just celebrated the 38th anniversary of its August 13, 1982 release. The <strong>movie&#8217;s cast</strong> included Sean Penn, Phoebe Cates, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Judge Reinhold and Forest Whitaker.</p><h2>Special guest appearances</h2><p>Viewers will have to tune-in live to see which character each actor will portray —&nbsp; but Penn has said he will not be reprising his role as surfer dude Jeff Spicoli.</p><p>Original “Fast Times” director Amy Heckerling and Crowe will make a special introduction at the event.</p><p>“I’m honored that so many talented, wonderful people are willing to get together to celebrate our movie, and to create their own special version of it,” Heckerling said in a statement about the reading.</p><p>“Thank you to this cast, and to Sean, for always honoring the best things in life, love and creativity. It is, as a great man once said, totally awesome,” Crowe added.</p><h2>It&#8217;s also a COVID-19 relief effort</h2><p>The “Dane Cook Presents Feelin’ A-Live” fund raiser will benefit two organizations: CORE and REFORM Alliance. CORE was founded by Penn and CEO Ann Lee, fighting against COVID-19 and providing testing and relief in the United States. REFORM Alliance was <strong>launched last year</strong> by a group of high-profile people, including Jay-Z and Meek Mill. It focuses on criminal justice reform and curbing the spread of COVID-19 within the incarcerated population.</p><p>All livestreams will have a &#8220;donate&#8221; button, with proceeds going to both CORE and REFORM Alliance.</p><p><video-js
