Foreign Film Series Continues with Norwegian Drama, Reprise, on Friday, October 29.
The film series at the
Ludington Area Center for the Arts continues on Friday, October 29 with the
Norwegian drama, Reprise.
Reprise tells the story of two lifelong
friends and aspiring novelists who find their lives head in opposite directions when one friend has a novel published
and the other's is rejected.
Winner of the multiple awards at various
international film festivals, Reprise is described by The New York Times as an "... exuberant,
exhilaratingly playful testament to being young and hungry - for life and
meaning and immortality.
The
Chicago Tribune calls it "...funny, moving, wide-eyed and wise, the movie strikes
universal chords strong enough to break down cinematic language barriers." The film, which is rated R, is in
Norwegian with English subtitles. The running time is 105 minutes.
On November 19, the Center's film
series continues its foreign selections The Owl and the Sparrow, a tale of three strangers whose
fates collide on a Saigon street.
The foreign film series concludes on New Year's Eve with an endearing
and romantic film from Denmark, Italian for Beginners.
All films in the series screen at 7
p.m. Tickets for each film
screening are $7 per person at the door. Popcorn and beverages will be available for purchase.
