John Sayles Hosts Upstate Premiere of Honeydripper

Friday, January 18, 2008
8:00 PM

Honeydripper features an all-star cast including Danny Glover, Charles S. Dutton, Lisa Gay Hamilton, Stacy Keach, Mary Steenburgen, Yaya DaCosta and Sean Patrick Thomas; as well as such notable musicians as Keb Mo and Dr. Mable John. It also introduces a major new talent, Gary Clark Jr. who makes his electrifying film debut as Sonny. Tyrone (Danny Glover) is the proprietor of the Honeydripper juke joint. When business at once-popular the club begins to trail off and Tyrone hires unpredictable electric guitarist Sonny (Gary Clark, Jr.) against his better judgment, Tyrone’s last-ditch bid to draw in crowds during harvest time has surprising results that neither desperate Tyrone nor the ambitious Sonny could have ever anticipated.

There will be a Q & A from 7:30 - 8:00 PM with Writer & Director John Sayles and Producer Maggie Renzi and it will be moderated by WAMC's Joe Donahue.

The cost to see the Q&A and film is only  $10 and tickets are available via our website or at the Box Office.
