THE CAKE EATERS Sneak Preview at the Egyptian Theatre
A sneak preview of Mary Stuart Masterson’s directorial debut, The Cake Eaters, starring Kristen Stewart, Aaron Stanford, and Bruce Dern, will be presented on Wed., March 11, at 7:30 p.m. at the American Cinematheque’s Egyptian Theatre in Hollywood. The screening will be followed by a discussion with Masterson, actor Bruce Dern, and various other cast members.
Written by Jayce Bartok (who also co-stars), The Cake Eaters is described as "a light-hearted, bittersweet romantic drama set in a small town where the intimate secrets and tensions of two families force them to come to terms with life, love and death." The film took the audience award at the Ashland Independent and Ft. Lauderdale film festivals.
Also in the Cake Eaters cast: Talia Balsam, veteran Elizabeth Ashley, and the Oscar-nominated Melissa Leo. Original music composed by Tony Award winner Duncan Sheik.
At Cinematical, Erik Davis says The Cake Eaters "is charming when it needs to be, and careful not to become too melodramatic. It’s one of those comfortable quiet films where most of the action is non-verbal and the characters rarely ever say what’s really on their minds. But when they do, the dialogue is delivered in a way that’s so personal, you almost feel like that awkward third party — he ear that’s not supposed to be hearing all this."
The Cake Eaters will be available on DVD in late March.
