SUMMARY:Filmland: Arkansas Showcase – All Happy Families
DESCRIPTION:Catch a screening of All Happy Families co-written by Arkansas native Coburn Goss\, directed by Haroula Rose\, and executive produced by Michael Shannon. \nAbout the Film\n\nHaroula Rose’s charming dramedy stars How I Met Your Mother‘s Josh Radnor as Graham\, an actor and writer in a slump and still waiting for his big break while his hugely successful brother Will (Rob Huebel) stars in his own sitcom. On the weekend before new tenant Dana (Chandra Russell) is due to move into their childhood home\, the siblings and their parents find themselves unexpectedly under the same roof again\, where every corner reveals secrets and surprises and the family airs out long-held resentments. \nThis slice-of-life film features a terrific ensemble cast\, including the pitch-perfect Becky Ann Baker as Sue\, the matriarch who’s tired of having to hold everything together and John Ashton as Roy\, a grump who needs to change his ways but doesn’t seem capable of doing so. \nRose delicately weaves a deeply relatable portrait of family dysfunction with all of its delightfully entertaining mess coming to the surface over the course of one eventful and unforgettable weekend. \n\nRun Time: 90 minutes \n\n\nWATCH THE TRAILER\n\n\n\n\n  \nThis screening is presented in partnership with the Arkansas Cinema Society. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
