  • Directed By: Josephine Decker Written By: Sarah Gubbins Starring: Elisabeth Moss, Odessa Young, Michael Stuhlbarg, Logan Lerman
    SHIRLEY Directed by: Josephine Decker Written by: Sarah Gubbins Starring: Elisabeth Moss, Odessa Young, Michael Stuhlbarg, Logan Lerman Running Time: 107 Minutes CORNERSTONE FILMS CONTACTS: Publicity: Anna Bohlin/ [email protected] Marketing: Joanne Michael/ [email protected] SYNPOSIS Fred and Rose move to a small Vermont college town in pursuit of a job for Fred as an assistant professor of literature. The young couple receives an offer for free room and board from professor Stanley Hyman, as long as Rose agrees to spend time cleaning up the home and looking after his wife, acclaimed horror author Shirley Jackson. At first Fred and Rose detest the rocky household of the eccentric couple, but they eventually establish deep bonds with their counterparts, which will test the limits of their young love. Director Josephine Decker makes an exciting return with a biographical portrait brought alive with energy and imagination, based on a novel by Susan Merrill and screenplay by Sarah Gubbins. Shirley is a fresh take on the period drama, full of contemporary intrigue and dynamic in style. It features a stellar lead cast—Elisabeth Moss, Michael Stuhlbarg, Odessa Young, and Logan Lerman—who all return to the Festival to give another memorable performance. DIRECTOR’S STATEMENT Shirley Jackson was a wildly unorthodox human and storyteller. Encountering her work was like finding a map towards becoming the kind of artist I would like to be. Daring. Intimate. Structured yet dreamlike. Shirley’s work rides on the skin between imagined and real, seducing with its oddness and humble cracks until you can’t tell if you’re looking up the stairwell or into your own mouth.

  • Miguel Arteta on Learning How to Run a Movie Set
    September 15, 2017 - Miguel Arteta is a Puerto Rican film and television director best known for his films Chuck & Buck, The Good Girl, and most recently, Beatriz at Dinner. His next film is the experimental comedy Duck Butter, starring Alia Shawkat. Here Arteta recounts the practical education he received on movie sets working with the likes of Sidney Lumet, Sydney Pollack, and Jonathan Demme. "His curiosity and the way he was just actively responding, like letting himself respond in a joyful way to people and to situations, was incredible," says Arteta of Demme. "He was directing, not controlling. He was responding. If you control it then it's going to be a boring movie. You have to respond so that you feel there's life beyond the frame. The audience feels like they're coming on an exploration with you." As told to Charlie Sextro, 3025 words. Tags: Film, Process, Collaboration, Beginnings, Education. Miguel Arteta on learning how to run a movie set Did you have much experience on set before you started directing? I did. First of all, I worked on student films when I was at university, but when I moved to New York, my friend hooked me up to be a location scout for Sidney Lumet on two of his films, Q&A and Family Business. I didn’t know New York. I had to lie because they were shooting in Spanish Harlem for Q&A and I said, “Yeah, definitely. I’m Puerto Rican, I know.” My job was to drive the van to meet Timothy Hutton, star of Q&A, and Sidney at his house in the Upper East Side.

The Overnight Parking Report was a "read and file" with no action taken as data will continue to be collected until June 30 and is then tentatively sched - uled to be heard by council at the July 18 session. continued on page 11 ADVOCATES FOR AFFORDABLE HOUSING : Above is part of a group of students who came to the OC Board of Supervisors meet - ing to advocate for housing for the homeless.

  • Cedar Rapids Cedar Rapids, Iowa, As a Daring, Hip, Urban
    Cedar Rapids Cedar Rapids, Iowa, as a daring, hip, urban metropolis ready to deflower the mind and body of the innocent? Well, it is for an insurance salesman from the sticks who has never been anywhere. That is the core joke in the aptly named “Cedar Rapids,” a sweet and likable comedy (now in theaters) which could be subtitled “The Nerd’s Progress.” The salesman, a super-cosseted bachelor named Tim Lippe (Ed Helms), has never known anything outside of his small (fictional) town of Brown Valley, Wisconsin— though he has evolved enough to have a surprising affair with his middle school teacher, the flamboyant Ms. Vanderhei (Sigourney Weaver), who still calls him “Timmy.” Helms is a natural for this character, having rung a number of changes on it already as the naïf Andy he portrays in TV’s “The Office.” Through a fluke, he gets to represent his company, Brown Star Insurance, at the annual regional insurance agents’ conference in sophisticated Cedar Rapids. Tim is all a twitter (and not in a web way) with attending—he’s never even been on a plane before! Everything at the fabulous conference hotel is new—and exciting or threatening—to him: the young hooker outside the entrance, the really spiffy lobby, a clerk claiming his credit card, his grandiose hotel room, and, especially, his roomies for the duration of the conference, the gentlemanly Ronald Wilkes (Isiah Whitlock, Jr.), the first black he has ever met, and the tyro salesman and party animal Dean Ziegler. While Ronald is a solid sort, people have warned Tim about the noisome, vulgar Dean, just the sort to get poor benighted Tim in trouble.
