Lara Ianni, director of ‘The Book of Will’ at Little Theater of Winston-Salem will be present for an in-person discussion following the screening on 12/6 at 12pm.
The powerful story of love and loss that inspired the creation of Shakespeare’s timeless masterpiece, Hamlet. From director Chloé Zhao and producers Steven Spielberg and Sam Mendes.
“It’s near impossible to imagine a screen adaptation capturing the grief and catharsis rendered so vividly on the page, even if O’Farrell was signed on as a co-writer. And yet: Filmmaker Chloé Zhao‘s rigorous, moving, and altogether transcendent take on channeling pain into work and finding the will to go on is every bit the book’s equal. Factor in Jessie Buckley‘s career-defining performance as Agnes, and you could make the argument that it surpasses its source material.” David Fear, Rolling Stone
