Actress (A Women's History Month Special)
Actress (A Women's History Month Special) Sponsored by the New York Film and Video Council and the Flaherty
Robert Greene, 2014, 87 min
Brandy Burre had a recurring role on HBO's The Wire when she gave up her career to start a family. When she decides to reclaim her life as an actor, the domestic world she's carefully created crumbles around her. Using elements of melodrama and cinema verité, Actress is both a present tense portrait of a dying relationship and an exploration of a complicated woman, performing the role of herself, in a complex-yet-familiar story. It's a film about starring in the movie of your life. This is what happens when we break the rules.
Q&A with director Robert Greene and subject Brandy Burre followed by a reception sponsored by the New York Film and Video Council.
