Screen & Discuss the new feature Herman & Shelly

This screening was suggested by Vicky Wight of IFC.

In this offbeat, quirky romantic comedy, high school chums Herman and Shelly navigate the odd transition from much-hyped youthful art prodigies to overlooked adult artists. Ambitions are pitted against lifelong bonds, with the zany mess of the art world acting as an ever-changing backdrop. A fresh take on coming of age, the murky space between lovers and friends, and the personal sacrifices endured for one’s art.

The one-night screening will be at at the IFC Center on Wednesday, Feb 8th at 8pm and will be followed by a Q&A with the director Bridget Stokes. Bridget wrote and directed the film and she teaches screenwriting at Trinity College in Connecticut. The cast and crew will be present and they are opening the floor up to any and all questions about their filmmaking process.

Bridget and Vicky have worked in distribution for many years with IFC Films, Artistic License Films and Merchant Ivory. They will be shooting another film in Connecticut this year and would be happy to discuss how they work, etc.

They will also be hosting drinks after the screening on Feb. 8 at the Four-Faced Liar Irish Pub just around the corner from the theatre.

This is a one-night-only screening of the film. As you know, it's as difficult to get a film seen as it is to get it made, so please check it out if you can!
