Holbrook/Twain: An American Odyssey @ SLIFF
Hal Holbrook's Mark Twain is an icon of American theater. Since first walking onto the stage as Twain in 1954, Holbrook has performed his one-man show on Broadway, in all 50 states, in 20 countries, and before five U.S. presidents. Millions have seen the Tony-winning and Emmy-nominated performance, and countless actors and scholars have been influenced by the work. Directed by Scott Teems -- who first collaborated with Holbrook on the award-winning film "That Evening Sun" -- the documentary celebrates the 60th consecutive year of "Mark Twain Tonight!" Featuring excerpts from the show, behind-the-scene footage, and extensive conversations with Holbrook, the film also includes interviews with Sean Penn, Martin Sheen, Emile Hirsch, and a host of others. The Hollywood Reporter writes: "While director Scott Teems gives a lot of attention to the Twain show, he also draws a sharp portrait of Holbrook himself, still going strong and performing around the country at the age of 89. The film stands as a loving tribute to an actor's selfless dedication to his craft."
