THE OVERNIGHT




Landmark Theatres Film Club Q&A Podcast show

Summary: Jason Schwartzman (actor) at The Landmark in West Los Angeles. Moderated by Ted Mundorff, CEO/President of Landmark Theatres. Film synopsis: Alex, Emily and their son RJ have recently moved to Los Angeles' Eastside from Seattle. Feeling lost in a new city, they are desperate to find their first new friends. After a chance meeting with Kurt at the neighborhood park, they gladly agree to join family pizza night at the home. But as it gets later and the kids go to bed, the family “playdate” becomes increasingly more revealing and bizarre as the couples begin to open up. Writer/director Patrick Brice's painfully funny take on thirty-something sexual frustration and parenthood features memorable lead performances by Taylor Schilling, Adam Scott, Jason Schwartzman and Judith Godrèche. Each actor nimbly balances the script's sudden emotional turns from surprising honestly to complete embarrassment.
