Roxie Theater: The Linguini Incident (Director’s Cut)

ALL NEW DIRECTOR’S CUT!

Director Richard Shepard personally for questions and answers after the screening on May 23rd only!

Lucy (Rosanna Arquette) is an underpaid, underappreciated waitress at an incurably hip New York restaurant called Dali. She’s also an aspiring escape artist who desperately needs money to buy Harry Houdini’s wedding ring. Monte (David Bowie) is the shady but charming new bartender who is desperate to get married at any cost. Together they team up – along with Lucy’s best friend, self-defense bra designer Viv (Eszter Balint) – to rob the popular restaurant and all the “trend-sucking bloodsuckers” who dine there. As you might expect, things don’t go as planned, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. Funny, romantic and wonderfully offbeat cult classic THE LINGUINI INCIDENT, starring Andre Gregory, Buck Henry and Marlee Matlin, is “a wacky treat,” according to the LA Times. “A contemporary screwball comedy that actually works.”

Starring Rosanna Arquette, David Bowie, Eszter Balint, Andre Gregory, Buck Henry and Marlee Matlin. Screenplay by Tamar Brott & Richard Shepard. Produced by Sarah Jackson. Directed by Richard Shepard.
