ABOUT THE FILMS LONE STAR, 1996, Warner Bros., 135 min, USA, Dir: John Sayles. Chris Cooper plays an easygoing Texas sheriff who discovers unpleasant truths about his town and his own past in this intricately plotted murder mystery. Displaying his usual talent for ensemble characterization, director John Sayles follows nearly a dozen major players (Kris Kristofferson, Frances McDormand and Matthew McConaughey are among the film’s many talented actors) as their stories intersect and raise questions about political corruption, multiculturalism, and other contemporary issues. FORMAT: 35mm LOVE STREAMS, 1984, Park Circus, 141 min, USA, Dir: John Cassavetes. Love streams and surges in strange ways in this latter-era film by the great John Cassavetes. He also stars as Robert Harmon, a boozy, hedonistic writer who’s thrown for a loop when the son he’s never seen is dropped off on his doorstep. The kid is followed in short order by Harmon’s beleaguered sister (Gena Rowlands), a woman who thinks she can deliver balance to their lives via a taxi full of rescued animals. FORMAT: 35mm
