The Whale (Final Screening)
From filmmaker Darren Aronofsky (BLACK SWAN, REQUIEM FOR A DREAM) comes THE WHALE, the story of a reclusive English teacher (Brendan Fraser, in an Oscar-winning performance) living with severe obesity who attempts to reconnect with his estranged teenage daughter for one last chance at redemption. Starring Brendan Fraser and based on the acclaimed play by Samuel D. Hunter. With Hong Chau in her Oscar-nominated performance, Sdie Sink (Netflix's "Stranger Things"), Samantha Morton
"Its redeeming strength [is] the authentically knotty characters and the performances that inhabit them." (Observer UK)
'"The Whale' is best appreciated as a moving, stripped-back character study, with a stunning lead performance." (Empire Magazine)
"Fraser delivers the best work of his career." (Chicago Sun-Times)
"'The Whale' doesn’t make a lunge for your emotions. It earns them." (San Francisco Chronicle)
"“The Whale” makes waves in two ways: for Brendan Fraser’s astounding and incredibly compassionate portrayal of an obese man seeking redemption, and as an empathy test in a supremely cynical social-media landscape." (USA Today)
