Film Series 'The Visitor' Feb. 12

Past event
Feb 12, 2016

Layer up with your woolies & slippers and come to the Community Center this Friday at 7 p.m. for another stimulating evening with film scholar Rick Winston as we see 'The Visitor' together - and bring your friends!

Richard Jenkins was nominated for Best Actor in 2007 for his portrayal as a college professor who discovers two undocumented immigrants, one from Syria and one from Africa, staying in his Manhattan apartment. His growing involvement in their lives makes for a touching film, impressively written and directed by Tom McCarthy ("Spotlight"). Roger Ebert: "This is a wonderful film, but I must not describe what happens, because the whole point of serious fiction is to show people changing, and how they change in 'The Visitor' is the film's beauty. So much goes unsaid, and unseen. We are left to listen to the silences and observe the spaces."
