Affair: Free Talk with Parker Posey about Irrational Man
When: Monday, July 13, 2015 @ 6:30PM
Hot Spot: Film Society of Lincoln Center, NY
Deets: Parker Posey joins The Film Society of Lincoln Center on the occasion of the July 17 release of her latest film, Woody Allen’s Irrational Man, in which she stars opposite Jamie Blackley, Joaquin Phoenix, and Emma Stone. The film centers on a tormented philosophy professor who finds a will to live when he commits an existential act. At rock bottom emotionally, Abe Lucas (Phoenix) arrives at a small-town college to teach and becomes involved with two women: Rita (Posey), a lonely professor who wants him to rescue her from an unhappy marriage, and Jill (Stone), his best student, who becomes his closest friend.
Parker is notable for her string of roles in indie films like Dazed and Confused, Personal Velocity, Basquiat, Clockwatchers, The Daytrippers, Party Girl, and The House of Yes, as well as roles in studio movies like Scream 3 and Superman Returns. On television she has been featured in As the World Turns, the miniseries Hell on Heels: The Battle of Mary Kay (which earned her a Supporting Actress Golden Globe nomination in 2003), Inside Amy Schumer, Portlandia, and Granite Flats. Posey will discuss her role in Irrational Man as well as her career over the past 25 years.
