Time Out of Mind - Phoenix Film Festival Summer Showcase

Time Out of Mind

Directed by: Oren Moverman (The Messenger and Rampart)

Starring: Richard Gere and Jena Malone

Synopsis: George (RICHARD GERE) is an increasingly desperate man. Life seems to have passed him by. With nowhere to turn, he finds himself adrift on the unforgiving streets of New York City. After exhausting all possible housing options, he seeks refuge at Bellevue Hospital, Manhattan's largest intake center for homeless men. It proves a harsh and bewildering environment, teeming with marginalized souls. But when George befriends a seasoned shelter-dweller (BEN VEREEN), he begins to find hope of repairing his relationship with his estranged daughter (JENA MALONE).

TIME OUT OF MIND is a tour de force for Gere, an actor known for portraying urbane, self-possessed characters. Here, he is unmoored, almost unrecognizable, in circumstances no one would want to fall into, in which nearly all is lost. As the camera tracks him, often from afar, George bounces from one situation to the next, virtually invisible to the city dwellers around him.

This event is for the August 11th screening only
