An Afternoon with Carrie Coon

Screening followed by a Q&A with actress Carrie Coon and Writer Matt Prigge

Join us in conversation with Award-winning Actress Carrie Coon alongside a screening of her recent critically acclaimed performance in His Three Daughters.

His Three Daughters:

From writer-director Azazel Jacobs (French Exit, The Lovers) comes this bittersweet and often funny story of an elderly patriarch and the three grown daughters who come to be with him in his final days. Katie (Carrie Coon) is a controlling Brooklyn mother dealing with a wayward teenage daughter; free-spirited Christina (Elizabeth Olsen) is a different kind of mom, separated from her offspring for the first time; and Rachel (Natasha Lyonne) is a sports-betting stoner who has never left her father’s apartment — much to the chagrin of her stepsisters, who share a different mother and worldview. Continuing his astute exploration of family dynamics in close-knit spaces, Jacobs follows the siblings over the course of three volatile days, as death looms, grievances erupt, and love seeps through the cracks of a fractured home.

"It’s wry, vivid and moving in unexpected ways."
Jon Frosch, The Hollywood Reporter
"Coon is a firecracker from the start, Lyonne eases into one of the richest roles of her career, and Olsen is the film’s sneaky-great secret weapon — but they’re all at their best when forced into working together."
Kate Erbland, IndieWire
