Ventura Film Society Season 7 - Opening Night Film

“NOW: In the Wings on a World Stage“ is a 2014 documentary feature chronicling the reunion of actor Kevin Spacey and director Sam Mendes, both Academy Award-winners for their work on the film, “American Beauty”. Along with the Bridge Project Company, they rehearse and perform their innovative staging of Shakespeare's classic tragedy, "Richard III," in more than 200 performances across three continents, from Epidaurus to Doha.

The film provides a window into the theatrical process and is a great opportunity to witness Spacey’s immersive and captivating interpretation of this troubled hero.

Please join the Ventura Film Society as we launch our 7th season of bringing compelling independent cinema to Ventura.
