Miller's Crossing

John Turturro will be in person to discuss Miller's Crossing, one of his many brilliant collaborations with the Coen Brothers (of which others include his Cannes Best Actor-winning performance in Barton Fink, and his scene-stealing turn in The Big Lebowski) on Thursday, June 12. Just announced - actor Steve Buscemi will be in person with Turturro for the post-screening Q&A!
When the Italian Mafia threatens to kill a crooked bookie (John Turturro), Irish mob boss Leo O'Bannon (Albert Finney) refuses to allow it, chiefly because he's dating the bookie's sister, crafty gun moll Verna Bernbaum (Marcia Gay Harden). Leo's right-hand man, Tom Reagan (Gabriel Byrne), is also seeing Verna on the sly, and when he's found out is obliged to switch sides, going to work for the Italian mob amidst a dramatically escalating gang war over liquor distribution.
