His Neighbor Phil: A Film and Panel Discussion (with Q&A) for Families and Caregivers of people with Dementia Tuesday, June 7 at 2:00 p.m. A Story of Love, Devotion and Alzheimer's Disease SYNERGY HomeCare is proud to present His Neighbor Phil, the story of Harvey (Daniel Roebuck), a man whose wife Mary (Stephanie Zimbalist) has early onset Alzheimer's disease. The film depicts the effects of the disease not only on Mary but also the entire family and their community. While the film deals honestly with the realities of the disease, it focuses most of its attention on the tireless work of the caregivers. The film stars nationally known actors Stephanie Zim- balist (Remington Steele), Daniel Roebuck (The Fugitive, Lost, Glee), Ellen Dolan (As the World Turns), Oscar nomi- nee Sally Kellerman (M*A*S*H) and Nashville recording artist Ashley Hewitt (Elle: A Modern Cinderella Story). "We wanted the film to be a true telling of what families go through when Alzheimer's or other dementia symptoms be- come part of their life," writer/director Scott Thompson said. "But even more than that, we wanted to show the truth that love outlasts even the worst realities of life, including Alzheimer's disease and that it is love which sustains them when everything else seems to be gone." The Panel Discussion and Q & A Session: Following the film, there will be a panel discussion and question and answer period during which the audience can get information from the panelists about resources available to help with the care of their loved one with Alzheimer’s Disease and any general questions they may have. The panelists are Gordon Wall, President and owner of Synergy HomeCare of East Haven, Bernadette DiGiulian, Geriatric Care Manager of Elder Caring, L.L.C, Cherie Larson-Strucaly, Volunteer Pro- gram Manager at the Agency on Aging of South Central CT, and Maria Tomasetti, South Central Regional Director of the Alzheimer’s Association. This film and panel discussion is FREE and open to everyone, and is being held at the Hagaman Memorial Library, 227 Main Street in East Haven, CT. Please visit the library or call 203-468-3890 to register. 227 Main Street East Haven, CT 06512 203.468.3890 www.hagamanlibrary.info .

Getting Grace Sometimes When Death Calls, S Lifehappen
JUNE 2017 WWW.NFDA.ORG The Funeral Director in Popular Culture Getting Grace Sometimes When Death Calls, s LifeHappen 34 June 2017 THE DIRECTOR By Edward J. Defort The portrayal of funeral directors in the ma- jority of movies and television shows sel- dom strays far from the clichés of yesteryear. Few productions focus on the human side of the funeral director, who is usually a minor character, sometimes sinister and often ec- centric. The forthcoming independent feature film, Getting Grace, is an exception. Actor Daniel Roebuck, who also co-wrote and di- rected the film, portrays Bill Jankowski, a funeral director who has seemingly with- drawn from life and whose life is turned up- side down by a 16-year-old girl dying of can- cer. “The dying girl is more alive than he is,” Roebuck says of his character. Best known for his roles in feature films such as The Fugitive and U.S. Marshals, as well as TV series including Matlock and Lost, Roebuck can currently be seen in the critically acclaimed Amazon Prime series Man in the High Castle. Glancing at his list of credits, it would probably be easier to list the programs in which the veteran character actor has not appeared rather than the ones in which he has. But despite having such an extensive film résumé, Roebuck calls himself a frustrat- ed funeral director, and it was a label that s seemed to follow him throughout his life. s Born in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, Roe- buck worked in a food store while attending Bethlehem Catholic High School, known as Behind the Becahi.

Daniel Roebuck Biography
Daniel Roebuck Bio Having made his feature film debut starring in the teen comedy Cavegirl Daniel Roebuck quickly realized that there was only one direction to travel in his career. Up! Soon after Cavegirl, Roebuck established himself as one of the industry's youngest character actors with his haunting portrayal as the teenage killer, Samson in The River's Edge. Daniel Roebuck was born and raised in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, A fan of movies and television from a very early age he was immediately drawn to the actors and comedians. As his obsession with performing grew his parents unwittingly fomented his future by gifting him with a cardboard TV on his seventh Christmas. At the age of 10, he started performing in talent shows doing impressions of movie stars he loved. He joined a local circus two years later and made his debut as one of the youngest clowns in the country. Roebuck's clown act eventually segued into a magic act and he performed that throughout Pennsylvania, New Jersey and New York. It was only a matter of time before Roebuck discovered the theater and from that point he never looked back. Over the next few years while still in Pennsylvania, Roebuck continued to hone his craft, acting in, directing, and even writing over 40 plays. He also began performing stand up comedy. Now, nearly 30 years later, Roebuck has amassed a substantial resume as an actor, writer and director. He has moved easily between all mediums having continued working on television, in movies and on the stage. His film credits are myriad, having starred in blockbusters like The Fugitive, US Marshals,and final Destination, as well as popular titles including Agent Cody Banks and it's sequel, That's What I Am, Money Talks, Flash Of Genius and so many more.

Within just the first five minutes, you become immediately invested in the movie’s characters, setting and important themes. At the 2017 NFDA Convention, I had an opportunity to screen the first third of the film and was moved by its sharp writing, compelling acting and fresh portrayal on the funeral Hurley Funeral Home profession. The poignancy of the film, coupled with the way it dispels Pg 18 many misconceptions, make this movie a rare gem that every funeral director should see. 1. Realistic Portrayal of Funeral Professionals As Ed Defort, Publisher of The Director, stated before the film screening at the NFDA Convention, funeral director characters in movies are very rarely main protagonists. Their depictions in both film and television are usually relegated to shifty or untrustwor- thy characterizations. Getting Grace turns that well-worn formula on its head by telling the story of a disaffected funeral director who discovers how to better embrace life from a teenage girl with terminal cancer. At the 2017 NFDA Convention, ASD had an oppor- tunity to meet Daniel Roebuck, who wrote, directed and stars in Getting Grace.

THE HOLLYWOOD YOUTH NARRATIVE AND THE FAMILY VALUES CAMPAIGN, 1980-1992 by Clare Connors Bachelor of Arts, Macalester College, 1982 Masters of Arts, University of Louisville, 1987 Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Pittsburgh 2005 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH FACULTY OF ARTS AND SCIENCES This dissertation was presented by Clare Connors It was defended on April 15, 2005 and approved by Dr. Marcia Landy Dr. Troy Boone Dr. Carol Stabile Dr. Lucy Fischer Dissertation Director ii THE HOLLYWOOD YOUTH NARRATIVE AND THE FAMILY VALUES CAMPAIGN, 1980-1992 Clare Connors, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2005 The dissertation seeks to identify and analyze the cultural work performed by the Hollywood youth narrative during the 1980s and early nineties, a period that James Davison Hunter has characterized as a domestic “culture war.” This era of intense ideological confrontation between philosophical agendas loosely defined as “liberal” and “conservative,” increasing social change, and social polarization and gender/sexual orientation backlash began with Ronald Reagan’s landslide victory in 1980 and continued for twelve years through the presidency of George Bush, Sr. The dissertation examines the Hollywood youth narrative in the context of the family values debate and explicates its role in negotiating and resolving social conflict in a period of intense social change and ideological confrontation. The dissertation theorizes the historic and cultural function of the Hollywood youth narrative in “translating” complex social problems into generational and familial conflicts that can be easily, if superficially, resolved through conventional Hollywood genre narrative structures.
