Flim/Video WOMEN WITH VISION: RESTLESS AGE THE SAFETY OF OBJECTS ADAPTED AND DIRECTED BY ROSE TROCHE FRIDAY, MARCH 15, 2002, 8 PM $6 ($4 WALKER MEMBERS) AUDITORIUM

The Safety of Objects presents an ensemble of four suburban families whose experiences--personal tragedies, SUV mania, right-on-the-edge marriages, and hilarious relationships--liberate them from the false sense of comfort they have created in their neighborhood. Director Rose Troche (Go Fish and Bedrooms and Hallways) expertly weaves the intersecting story lines with equal parts humor and sympathy, eliciting magical performances from her stellar cast: Glenn Close, Dermot Mulroney, Mary Kay Place, Joshua Jackson, Patricia Clarkson, and Timothy Olyphant. Adapted from short stories by A. M. Homes. 2001, U.S., color, 35mm, 121 minutes.
