The Missing Person - Centerpiece Screening
USA, 108 MIN, WEST COAST PREMIERE

Director: Noah Buschel
Writer: Noah Buschel
Producer: Jesse Scolaro, Allen Bain, Lois Drabkin, Alex Estes
Cast: Michael Shannon, Amy Ryan, Frank Wood, Linda Emond, Paul Sparks,  John Ventimiglia

Private detective John Rosow is hired to tail a man on a train from Chicago to Los Angeles. Rosow gradually uncovers the man's identity as a missing person; one of the thousands presumed dead after the 9/11 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center. Persuaded by a large reward, Rosow is charged with bringing the missing person back to his wife in New York City. The film pays homage to classic detective stories and begs comparison to Robert Altman's "The Long Goodbye"  which upgraded Raymond Chandlers disaffected private eye to a contemporary setting. Buschel, a New Yorker, was reading Chandler when the Twin Towers fell. The resulting movie reflects the precise combination of those two components.
