Signature Screenings
Long Day’s Journey into Night
Set on a single day in August 1912 at the family’s Connecticut seaside home, Long Day’s Journey into Night follows the Tyrone family as it faces looming dual specters of Edmund’s potentially fatal consumption diagnosis alongside his mother Mary’s increasingly fragile and anxious state of mind. The family knows that the situation threatens to return her to a severe morphine addiction that was only recently overcome in this film based on the Pulitzer Prize-winning play by Eugene O’Neill. A Quiver release.
Actor Jessica Lange will be presented with the Lifetime Achievement Award. An In Conversation event with Lange immediately follows the screening.
