Event
"Honeydripper" Advance Screening
Join us for a special evening with John Sayles and an advanced screening of his new film Honeydripper. This is a benefit fundraiser for the Ann Arbor Film Festival. John Sayles will be in attendance for a Q&A following the film.
About Honeydripper: Acclaimed writer/director John Sayles, in his 16th feature film, continues his extraordinary examination of the complexities and shifting identities of American sub-cultures in the new film "Honeydripper". With his usual understated intelligence, Sayles uses the rhythms of the citizens of Harmony, Alabama to immerse the audience into the world of the Jim Crow south. Its a fable about the birth of rock n roll, a quintessentially American subject, but with a fidelity to time and temperament that is unusual in an American director.
Honeydripper features an all-star cast including Danny Glover, Charles S. Dutton, Lisa Gay Hamilton, Stacy Keach, Mary Steenburgen,Yaya DaCosta and Sean Patrick Thomas; as well as such notable musicians as Keb Mo and Dr. Mable John. It also introduces a major new talent, Gary Clark Jr. who makes his electrifying film debut as Sonny.
