NW Premier In The Land Of Milk and Money January 13, 2006

Admission: $5.00

In The Land of Milk and Money is an outrageous comedy and wacky social satire that turns suburban America on its head. Mad cow disease, corporate greed, mob mentality, the cult of Motherhood, propaganda, discrimination, and dangerous kitchen utensils all find a home in this wild social satire.

The performances have been called sharp and smart especially by the two leads including Christopher Coulson as the doctor and Kim Gillingham as his one time wife. Veteran character actor Tom Bower plays Dr. Cochran's father who ditches his crazed wife for the tomboyish Amy Madigan.

Emshwiller has worked in the film industry as a set decorator for over seventeen years, often for director Robert Altman. As an actress, she was featured in Altman's "The Player."

Susan Emshwiller and Barbara Turner wrote the script for Ed Harris? directorial debut film, Pollock. Director Emshwiller will discuss her new film following the evening's screening.
