Sorry I didn’t post this sooner, but I just found out about it now. Lauren Ambrose will be on The View this morning (Tuesday, December 11, 2007) at 11 AM EST on ABC. (But see local listings.) Not a show I usually watch, but I’ll watch it or record it so I can see her.
She’s talking about her new movie Starting Out in the Evening, currently in release.

I’ve been waiting for this independent film, starring Lauren Ambrose, Frank Langella, and Lili Taylor, about a grad student who reinvigorates the hopes and dreams of an old novelist.
The movie premiered at January’s Sundance Film Festival, where critics liked it. It’s based on the 1999 novel by Brian Morton, the story of a New York novelist, Leonard Schiller (Frank Langella). His books were once acclaimed, but now are out of print. He is close to his daughter Ariel (Lili Taylor), but otherwise keeps to himself in a structured, joyless existence… until grad student Heather Wolfe (Lauren Ambrose) decides to write her Master’s thesis on him and his work. In the process, she grows close to him, challenging him to accept that he’s “using his age to mask a deeper conflict.” Then she starts trudging through his life’s scars, including that of his long-deceased wife.
The film is coming to theaters—finally!—starting Friday, November 23.

From the time I first heard of this film, I wanted to see it. No word yet on when it’s coming to DVD. And all I know of it’s release on the big screen is that we can expect a “limited” release on November 23. So there’s a chance that it might come to the theatre down the street from me, which shows many independent films.
In the meantime, of course, I could read the novel. And here are a number of reviews from the screening of Starting Out in the Evening at the Toronto International Film Festival last week. Click to continue »
