ELEANOR THE GREAT

About this event

June Squibb brings to vivid life the witty and proudly troublesome 94-year-old Eleanor Morgenstein, who after a devastating loss, tells a tale that takes on a dangerous life of its own. Scarlett Johansson’s directorial debut is a comically poignant exploration of how the stories we hear become the stories we tell. Co-stars Chiwetel Ejiofor and Erin Kellyman. “A moving study of grief, loneliness and aging.” -G. Allen Johnson, San Francisco Chronicle “A heartfelt, emotionally resonant story about the power of our lives and the capacity of our stories lingering on long after we’ve left this world. Take someone you love and see it.” -Kristen Lopez, The Film Maven (PG-13, 98m)
