SUMMARY:Behind The Screen: A Real Pain (Film & Discussion)
DESCRIPTION:Screening & Post-Film Discussion with Michelle Ephraim\, Jonathan Wilson and Tim Miller! \nJesse Eisenberg’s A Real Pain is a sharp\, thoughtful take on family and the weight of inherited history. In it\, cousins David and Benji—played by Eisenberg and Kieran Culkin—travel to Poland to connect with their Jewish roots and honor their late grandmother\, a Holocaust survivor. The two cousins couldn’t be more different: David is responsible and tightly wound\, while Benji is a free spirit\, creating a humorous and heartfelt dynamic between the two as they confront their past and the unresolved tensions in their relationship. \nPanelists:\nMichelle Ephraim\, Professor of English at Worcester Polytechnic Institute and author of the memoir Green World: A Tragicomic Memoir of Love & Shakespeare\, weaves together her life\, the lives of her Holocaust-survivor parents\, and the writings of Shakespeare.\nJonathan Wilson\, Professor of Rhetoric and Debate Emeritus at Tufts\, with interests in creative writing and contemporary Jewish literature\, is the author of nine books including The Red Balcony.\nModerated by Tim Miller\, co-president of the Boston Society of Film Critics.
