"20TH CENTURY WOMEN" Advance Screening and Q&A with Mike Mills & Vidiots Holiday Party
Please join the Vidiots family for a Holiday Open House prior to our pre-release screening of Mike Mills' exquisite new film, 20th Century Women, starring Annette Bening, Greta Gerwig, Elle Fanning, Billy Crudup, and Lucas Jade Zumann. The screening will be followed by a Q&A with Writer/Director Mike Mills.
20TH CENTURY WOMEN
Synopsis:
With 20th Century Women, acclaimed writer/director Mike Mills presents a richly layered, funny, and deeply moving exploration of what it means to be female, how we relate to our families, and the connections we search for our entire lives.
Set in Santa Barbara in 1979, Mill's follow-up to his Academy Award-winning Beginners, follows Dorothea Fields (exquisitely portrayed by Annette Bening), a determined single mother in her mid-50s raising her son Jamie at a moment brimming with cultural change and rebellion. As burgeoning adolescence begins to throw-off her carefully constructed environment, Dorothea enlists the help of two spirited younger women to guide Jamie and keep him on the right path. The emotional roller coaster that ensues is both hilarious and full of meaning, a mental and emotional salve in our own complex times.
