FILM SCREENING: ANOMALISA

On behalf of Paramount Pictures and their release of ANOMALISA, ALLIED-THA are holding an advance screening before the release of their film on December 30th.

The first animated film directed by Charlie Kaufman and Duke Johnson began its life as a play in 2005, bringing together Academy Award®-winning writer-directors Charlie Kaufman and Joel " Ethan Coen for a double-bill "sound play," performed in New York, London and Los Angeles. On screen, ANOMALISA fits in seamlessly alongside Kaufman's signature works, including BEING JOHN MALKOVICH, ADAPTATION, ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE SPOTLESS MIND and SYNECDOCHE, NEW YORK, modern classics featuring hapless but wholly unforgettable protagonists enduring the long night of the soul under surreal, darkly comedic circumstances.

Members accompanied by their guest(s)  are invited to attend an advance screening.

Synopsis: Michael Stone, husband, father and respected author of "How May I Help You Help Them?" is a man crippled by the mundanity of his life. On a business trip to Cincinnati, where he's scheduled to speak at a convention of customer service professionals, he checks into the Fregoli Hotel. There, he is amazed to discover a possible escape from his desperation in the form of an unassuming Akron baked goods sales rep, Lisa, who may or may not be the love of his life. A beautifully tender and absurdly humorous dreamscape, from the brilliant minds of Charlie Kaufman (SYNECDOCHE, NEW YORK) and Duke Johnson ("Community" episode, Abed's Uncontrollable Christmas), this stop-motion animation wonder features the vocal cast of Jennifer Jason Leigh, Tom Noonan and David Thewlis and a stirring strings-based score by Carter Burwell. The darkly comedic and surreal stop-motion journey of a man's long night of the soul, ANOMALISA confirms Charlie Kaufman's place amongst the most important of American filmmakers, and announces Duke Johnson as a major creative force.
