All-star cast featured in 'Mother and Child' premiering July 27 Mother and Child

Sedona Film Festival presents Northern Arizona premiere of moving and powerful film

From writer-director Rodrigo Garcia (Nine Lives, Big Love, In Treatment, The Sopranos) and executive producer Alejandro González Ińárritu (Babel) comes the moving story of three women (Annette Bening, Naomi Watts and Kerry Washington) and the power of the unbreakable bond between mother and child.

The Sedona International Film Festival is proud to present the Northern Arizona premiere of “Mother and Child” on Tuesday, July 27.  There will be two screenings of the film at 4:00 and 7:00 p.m. at Harkins Sedona Six Theatres. The film is part of the fesival’s Tuesday “Best of Fest” Summer Cinema Series.

Three women's lives share a common core: they have all been profoundly affected by adoption. Karen (Annette Bening) placed a baby for adoption at age 14 and has been haunted ever since by the daughter she never knew. Elizabeth (Naomi Watts) grew up as an adopted child; she's a bright and ambitious lawyer, but a flinty loner in her personal life. Lucy (Kerry Washington) is just embarking with her husband on the adoption odyssey, hoping for the opportunity to become parents.

With both humor and pathos, “Mother and Child” brings this ensemble together to reveal the emotional complexity of families lost and found.

The title sponsor for the event is the Verde Valley Sanctuary. The series is also made possible by a grant from the Arizona Commission on the Arts and National Endowment for the Arts, the City of Sedona and the Sedona Community Foundation.

Heart Love Notes:
HeartDon't you just absolutely drool over the list of films at the Harkins Camelview?
            I go when I can.   But, honestly... I have to say....  Toy Story 3 is getting positively rave reviews!

            And with 99% fresh tomatoes rating, I feel very secure in recommending it for enjoyment value.
            It isn't playing in Sedona yet, but you can find it in Prescott and Flagstaff.  For Avatar in 3d, I ran up to Flag, but not for Toy Story 3.

  Great Acting Classes at local college!

Film Acting Classes at Yavapai College in Sedona Fall 2010
Heart
http://www.zgi.yc.edu/  

http://www.zgi.yc.edu/acting for film

Class descriptions as casually written by Sagan Lewis, instructor:

Fundamental of Acting for Camera # 33064

This class blends in the Zaki directors for 8 of the weeks.  You arrive at 4pm and we cast you in a small scene with a new Zaki director directing.  Then we work on the scene a few times and discuss how directors should work with actors.  This lasts for an hour and a half... for the rest off the class we work on acting monologues, scenes, circles, exercises and fundamentals.

Advanced Acting for Camera # 33065

This is a pure acting workshop.  I assume you know HOW to work.  This is a platform for doing that work.  Come in and apply the fundamentals in scene work, monolouges, and AB scenes.  Work with fellow actors and Ill give a constructive critique.  If your work is woring... we leave it alone.  if it is not working... well find a solution to improve what is happening.

If you need more info, please reply to this email and I will forward to Sagan.

    I have taken the fundamentals class with Sagan for 4 semesters!  Each class is fascinating, entertaining, and a platform for personal growth.  I am most appreciative.  No experience necessary.  However, many natural actors bring the level of the fundamentals class to an intermediate level.  Everyone should experience Sagan's powerful teaching techniques.

August 9       2002       Drama      PG-13           114 minutes
Audience request
This gripping drama follows the parallel lives of three 20th-century women: author Virginia Woolf (Nicole Kidman); an unsatisfied 1950s housewife (Julianne Moore); and a modern-day book editor (Meryl Streep) who is losing her former lover to AIDS. Kidman won a Best Actress Oscar for her role in director Stephen Daldry's adaptation of Michael Cunningham's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel (which was inspired by Virginia Woolf's novel, Mrs. Dalloway).     Captioned.

August 16 2007             German drama      R         138 minutes
Audience request
Set in 1980s East Berlin, director Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck's debut feature (which earned an Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film) provides an exquisitely nuanced portrait of life under the watchful eye of the state police. When a successful playwright and his actress companion become subjects of the Stasi's secret surveillance program, their friends, family -- and even those doing the watching -- find their lives forever changed. German with subtitles.

August 23   1984    Sci-fi romantic drama       PG    115 minutes
Audience request
In this sci-fi love story from John Carpenter, Jeff Bridges (who received an Oscar nod for his work) plays an alien who crashes on Earth and takes the form of a recently deceased man in order to evade authorities. On seeing the image of her dead husband before her, widow Jenny (Karen Allen) is frightened. But eventually, he wins her trust -- and her affection -- and she agrees to help him return to his home planet.  Captioned.

August 30    1988      Drama based on true story     PG     99 minutes
A moving, mostly true story of famed East L.A. math teacher (who died in 2010) Jaime Escalante (played by Edward James Olmos), who finds himself in a classroom of rebellious remedial students. Escalante stuns fellow faculty members with his plans to teach the kids advanced placement calculus. No one expects the mostly Hispanic teens (featuring Lou Diamond Phillips) to overcome the odds.  English with captions.

 First time? Welcome to SedonaFILMLovers, a free guide to independent films in Sedona, Flagstaff, and Prescott.  If you believe you were accidentally sent this email, please reply and ask to be removed. We only list films that are defined as independent, foreign, or art films.  Sometimes the categories are blurred, but we do our best.  We can suggest to our local theaters which films we would like to have.  Procuring films, however, can be complex.  Theaters bid for movies, yet ultimately distributors have the final say as to where their limited prints are screened.  The longer a film has been showing, the easier it is to get it, but then, it may just be available at the video store, too.

This email service was born out of the need to educate our community about independent film in the area.  Without word of mouth or auxillary marketing, films without big advertising budgets don’t attract big audiences.  In cities of 100,000 or more, a few percent can still fill theaters.   Phoenix only has one theater dedicated to "indie" film.  NYC only has a few.  In rural towns, it is important that all of us turn out when a film comes to town.  We can help you know when and where that is.  The theaters win, and we win.  Please add your interested friends to this list. Thank you!

SedonaFilmLovers - An organization dedicated to bringing quality art, foreign, independent, and limited release films to N. Arizona movie theaters and building awareness for quality cinema.
