PUBLIC SCREENING: Producer Paul Kaufman's 20-minute short Lift is finally ready to be seen.  This witty story of a disillusioned rabbi who buys a pair of elevator shoes in an effort to get closer to God will hold its Los Angeles premiere at the Nuart Theatre tomorrow through  Sunday. The film marks the first time in 10 years that veteran actor and increasingly important director Richard Benjamin has appeared in a theatrical release. It also stars Joe  Grifasi and Fisher Stevens. Director Salome Breziner wrote the script along with executive producer Herschel Weingrod who wrote the scripts for Twins, Trading Places and Kindergarten  Cop. Tomorrow the movie appears on a double bill with The Dark Backward and Saturday and Sunday with The Rocky Horror Picture Show .
