This Sunday, February 9th, join us for the inaugural gathering of the Sunday Night Film Club's Washington DC chapter for:

Love Liza —Philip Seymour Hoffman's breakthrough role of a man stuck between the mire of a previous existence and the eccentricities in which a future life is born.

The Setup ::

"After the untimely death of his young wife Liza, Wilson (Philip Seymour Hoffman) turns to his mother-in-law (Kathy Bates) for support. But their relationship sours when Wilson refuses to open a letter Liza left behind for fear it will shatter his ideal of the perfect life they shared.

As Wilson attempts to rebuild his life, with unopened letter in tow, eccentric behavior begins to surface, taking him on an odyssey of self-pity, self-realization and a curious fascination with remote-control model enthusiasts. A beautifully drawn portrait of a survivor who invokes humor, humility and whatever it takes to find the possibilities for a successful resolution."
