For one night only in December, Metrograph will be a screening the director’s cut of legendary writer-director Elaine May’s 1976 triumph Mikey & Nicky, starring John Cassavetes, Peter Falk and Ned Beatty, followed by a rare in person appearance by Elaine May for a discussion with her frequent editorial and production consultant Phillip Schopper, ACE, and assistant editor on the film Jeffrey Wolf, ACE.
The editing of Mikey & Nicky is a story worthy of its own film. The years of editing, the constant struggles with the studio, the alleged stolen reels of film, the extraordinary amount of footage shot and finally buying the film back to make the definitive cut of a film that has come to be known as a classic.
This evening is sure to sell out fast so watch for tickets on sale announcement.
