Intolerable Cruelty (Saturday, October 3)
Introduced by Dan Satorius, Attorney/VP Lommen Abdo Law Firm
A screwball battle-of-the-sexes romp between a divorce lawyer (George Clooney) and a divorcee
(Catherine Zeta-Jones) who conjure the charisma of 1930s Hollywood stars. The Coens’ screenplay—based on a story by Robert Ramsey, Matthew Stone, and John Romano—features “dialogue [that] fizzes with arch wit and sexual-financial-Darwinist treble entendres” (The Guardian). 2003, 35mm, 100 minutes.
