WED JUN 5, 2024 7:00 PM IVANSXTC $8.00 (member) ; $13.00 (general admission) Los Feliz 3 | Q&A with filmmaker Bernard Rose ‘Bleak Week: Cinema of Despair – Year 3’ Tickets are no longer on sale for this event.
ABOUT THE FILM: Directed by Bernard Rose (CANDYMAN) and loosely based on Tolstoy’s “The Death of Ivan Ilyich”, IVANSXTC is in fine company amongst THE PLAYER and THE DAY OF THE LOCUST as a powerful meditation on life, death and opening-weekend grosses. Danny Huston gives the searing lead performance of a lifetime as hotshot Tinseltown agent Ivan Beckman, locked into a fateful spiral of drink and drug-fueled excess after a shock cancer diagnosis. Co-starring Peter Weller (ROBOCOP, BUCKAROO BANZAI) as Ivan’s most successful, least-empathetic client! FORMAT: DCP DISTRIBUTOR: AGFA COUNTRY: USA/UK
