The Extra Man

August 27th - September 2nd

“A deeply goofy comedy set in a world of weirdoes which boasts one of Kevin Kline’s funniest ever performances.” — Screen International.

“For its directors it's a clear statement of intent that the pair has no interest in treading comfortable ground to make a living. For audiences, it's a wonderfully surreal jaunt into a delightfully nutty upper-class world.” — Edinburgh Review

Starring: Kevin Kline, Paul Dano, Katie Holmes, John C. Reilly. The Extra Man follows Louis Ives (Paul Dano), a lonely dreamer who fancies himself the hero of an F. Scott Fitzgerald novel. When a deeply embarrassing incident forces him to leave his job at an exclusive Princeton prep school, Louis heads to New York City to make a fresh start. He quickly finds a 9 to 5 job at an environmental magazine, where he encounters an entrancing, green-obsessed co-worker Mary (Katie Holmes). But, what really sparks Louis' imagination is his new home life. He rents a room in the ramshackle apartment of Henry Harrison (Kevin Kline), a penniless, wildly eccentric and brilliant playwright. When Henry's not dancing alone to obscure music or singing operettas, he's performing - with great panache -- the duties of an "extra man," a social escort for the wealthy widows of Manhattan high society. The two men develop a volatile mentorship, which leads to a series of urban adventures -- encountering everything from a leaping lion to a wildly jealous hirsute neighbor to drunken nonagenarians to a shady Swiss hunchback. Along his exploration into the heart of New York City, Henry and Louis have unexpected influences on each other and form a memorable bond that bridges their differences. 1hr 48min | USA | R

94% Top Critics rating Rottentomatoes.com

“Spectacular for its humanity, austere beauty and heart-stopping urgency. “ — Wall Street Journal

“What we’ve been waiting for: a work of art that grabs hold and won’t let go. “ — The New Yorker

"Every so often a film gets under our skin with its haunting authenticity, reinforcing our faith in the wonderfully transporting power of cinematic storytelling. Winter's Bone is unquestionably that film." — USA Today

"The movie heroes who affect me most are not extroverted. They don't strut, speechify and lead armies. They have no superpowers. They are ordinary people who are faced with a need and rise to the occasion. Ree Dolly is such a hero." — Roger Ebert

to this film

Featuring a star-making performance by Jennifer Lawrence, Winter's Bone is sure to be one of the most-critically acclaimed films of the year. This tense, naturalistic thriller follows 17-year-old Ree Dolly as she confronts the local criminal underworld and the harsh Ozark wilderness in order to to track down her father, who has put up the family homestead for his bail. If she fails, Ree and her family will be turned out into the Ozark woods. Challenging her outlaw kin's code of silence and risking her life, Ree hacks through the lies, evasions and threats offered up by her relatives and begins to piece together the truth. Based on the novel by Daniel Woodrell, Winter's Bone was filmed entirely on location in the Ozarks of Southwestern Missouri on the Red Camera. 1hr 40min | USA | R

Reception and 70th Birthday Celebration - ArtWalk Friday, September 24


To paraphrase Ansel Adams - " There are always two people in every picture; the photographer and the viewer ...” Clearly, Ansel did not allow for my first love …… portraiture. In portraiture there is a minimum of three people in the picture – the photographer, viewer and the subject.

“This is how I would like to be perceived” portraiture is abhorrent to me; it may flatter, but it fails to reveal.

My goal as a portrait photographer is not to somehow transform my subject but to have my subject transform me by entrusting me, if only for a moment, with a glimpse of their spirit as well as of their face.
