If ever there was a prototype for the quintessential iconoclastic American filmmaker, director Robert Altman fits the bill. From his tentative initial forays like THAT COLD DAY IN THE PARK to his smash successes like M.A.S.H. and NASHVILLE to his critically-acclaimed, cult sleepers like BREWSTER MCCLOUD, MCCABE AND MRS. MILLER, CALIFORNIA SPLIT, IMAGES and 3 WOMEN to his later much-lauded VINCENT & THEO and THE PLAYER and the award-winning GOSFORD PARK, Altman has had an incredibly diverse career. After repeated viewings of his films, seemingly diverse and unrelated movies become oddly connected, with similar thematic threads running through them as well as a common ground where the performers are the centerpiece. Simultaneously allowed wide latitude to do their thing, but still ultimately focusing on the goal maestro Altman has set for them, the actors achieve a kind of nirvana of simulated reality and improvised truth. Please join us for a look at, not only some of Robert Altman’s most fascinating pictures, but also a sneak preview of his latest, a cinematic adaptation of Garrison Keillor’s popular radio show, A PRAIRIE HOME COMPANION |
