Program Description

Event Details

For the month of March, we will be watching movies written and directed by Albert Brooks.  Albert made a name for himself in the 70s as a stand up comedian and became a regular guest on late night talk shows.  He landed a role in Martin Scorsese's "Taxi Driver" before making his own string of films.

On this night, we are watching Albert's 1991 film "Defending Your Life" starring himself, Meryl Streep, and Rip Torn.  It is rated PG.

In an afterlife way-station resembling a major city, the lives of the recently deceased are examined in a court-like setting.
