Next online movie (July 17): Living in Oblivion

[Michael L Ray]

LTATM meetings at the Del Mar Theatre are indefinitely suspended. Please join us online via Zoom video conferencing software (details below) where this week we'll be discussing a film streaming on Kanopy (anyone with a library card can join Kanopy for free and stream six to twelve movies a month). 

On Wednesday, July 17 @ 7:00 PM, we will be discussing the Comedy/Drama - Living in Oblivion. Independent film director Nick Reve (Steve Buscemi) is making his first feature. Everything that can go wrong does: the rebellious catering crew refuses to replace spoiled milk, his actors are flaky and getting an unspoiled take is nearly impossible. Tension between lead actress Nicole (Catherine Keener) and actor Chad (James LeGros), who have just slept together, contributes to the many problems on the set. As money and time run out, Nick struggles to complete his film. 86% Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes:
