Yale Film Archive: Cinemix Film Series

 

The Daytrippers (Greg Mottola, 1996, DCP, 87 mins)

Greg Mottola in person! 30th anniversary screening! A misplaced love letter sends a wife and her whole family to Manhattan in search of her husband and the mysterious “Sandy." The very first winner of the Slamdance Grand Jury Prize, writer/director Mottola’s debut feature is “deadpan and extremely funny while also providing moments of intense poignancy” (Mike Davies). Hope Davis, Stanley Tucci, Anne Meara, Parker Posey, Pat McNamara, and Liev Schreiber star. Post-screening discussion with Mottola and Yale's Richard Deming. DCP from Janus. Co-presented with Public Humanities at Yale.
