From: The Script Factory
Subject: Course

Dear colleagues

We hate to bombard you, but we wanted to share news of yet MORE Masterclasses coming your way from The Script Factory over the next two weeks. Please join us and be inspired!

Monday 25 February 2002 at 7.30pm

THE ROYAL TENENBAUMS (15) preview screening

Followed by The Script Factory: MASTERCLASS with WES ANDERSON (In association with Buena Vista International)

A chance to hear Wes Anderson, one of the brightest new stars of US film, in conversation with Richard Jobson, following a preview screening of one of the most original pictures to hit cinema screens for years. The fantastically eccentric tale of a truly dysfunctional family of former child prodigies forced to reunite when their wayward dad reappears in the family home in order to make amends, THE ROYAL TENENBAUMS pulls startling performances from Gene Hackman, Anjelica Huston, Ben Stiller and Gwyneth Paltrow, as youıve never seen them before.

New from Wes Anderson whose RUSHMORE proved a huge cult draw, THE ROYAL TENENBAUMS looks set to smash records and signals Anderson as a true comedy genius.

THE ROYAL TENENBAUMS - family isnıt a word, itıs a sentence.

Screen on the Green, Islington Green, N1
Tickets, priced £10 (8.50 conc), are available now from Screen Box Office (open daily between 3-8pm) telephone 020 7226 3520

Hope to see you there!

Best wishes

from your friends at The Script Factory
