Off The Court

Michael Johnson, who cleaned floors at the United Center, where another MJ catapulted to an international icon, was the subject of the 1999 documentary "The Other MJ." Meet Johnson during "Out of Bounds: In the Shadow of Airness," 7 p.m. July 13 at the South Side Community Art Center, 3831 S. Michigan. The event includes a screening of Johnson's movie along with the 1992 documentary "More Than a Game," which looks at the popular street-form of playground basketball where some professionals got their start, others became street-court legends and the rest just played the game. Filmmakers Tom Weinberg and Joel Cohen will be in attendance. Admission is free. http://www.southsidecommunityartcenter.com
