ABOUT THE FILM: Lori Singer stars in Victor Nunez’s latest exquisite portrait of a woman in a state of transition and reinvention, drawn loosely from the writer-director’s own experiences as a widower and an educator. Rachel (Singer) is a creative writing professor struggling to deal with the death of her husband — a struggle made all the more difficult by the fact that her job requires her to be an inspiration to others at the very moment when her life is defined by malaise and confusion. Rachel’s gradual willingness to let others into her life while she is still haunted (both literally and figuratively) by her husband recalls Peter Fonda’s Ulee, but RACHEL HENDRIX is an expansion of Nunez’s work, not a repetition — here we find the writer-director at his most complex, provocative, and poignant, in a late career masterpiece with another stunning performance at its center.
