Kick off the 24th Philadelphia Film Festival at the historic Prince Theater, Philadelphia Film Society’s newest venue, with two screenings of
Anomalisa, at 6:00pm and 8:30pm*. From Charlie Kaufman, writer of
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind,
Anomalisa depicts a man desperately trying to escape his life in this extraordinary piece of stop-motion animation that is as tender and humorous as itis surreal.
Writer/director Charlie Kaufman and director Duke Johnson are scheduled to attend. Kaufman and Johnson will participate in a Q&A immediately following the film and will be presented with the festival’s Artistic Achievement Award. The award is to honor Charlie Kaufman for his career in incredibly imaginative writing, and Duke Johnson for his equally exciting work in animation, culminating in the revolutionary stop-motion animated work of art, Anomalisa.*A limited quantity of tickets to this screening have become available!
