Affair: An Evening with Kevin Bacon & "Cop Car" Screening

When: Wednesday, May 27, 2015 @ 8PM

Hot Spot: SIFF Cinema Egyptian, Seattle, WA

Deets: SIFF welcomes Kevin Bacon to the stage for an interview featuring film clips from his career and to receive the Seattle International Film Festival Career Achievement. Afterwards, there will be a screening of Bacon's latest film, Cop Car, directed by Jon Watts.

With his sly grin, boyish handsomeness, and mischievous energy used to perfect effect in a wide range of film roles-from teen movie heroes and scenery-chewing supervillains to sadistic guards and emotionally crippled FBI agents-actor and musician Kevin Bacon has carved out a unique career as a captivating character actor working with movie star charisma, a performer who can flow easily from lead to supporting role.

Synopsis: In this lean, mean thriller, a corrupt rural sheriff (Kevin Bacon) pursues two small-town 10-year-old runaways who have taken his police cruiser for a joyride—with a gun in the backseat and a bound man in the trunk.

Who You May Spot: Director Jon Watts, Actor Kevin Bacon 

Hint For The Average Socialite: Ticket price (available now) includes reserved seats at the Evening with Kevin Bacon event and a pre-film reception catered by Bookstore Bar & Cafe's James Beard Award-winner, Chef Caprial Pence and featuring wines provided by Columbia Winery and LaMarca Prosecco.
