ABOUT THE FILM:

With an all-star cast featuring Kathryn Hahn, Owen Wilson and Jennifer Aniston, SQUIRRELS TO THE NUTS brings classic slapstick comedy to life in this restored version of Peter Bogdanovich’s final film.

Originally titled SHE’S FUNNY THAT WAY, the restoration is a cinematic adventure which began when long time devotee and film scholar James Kenney bought a copy of the director’s cut on eBay and brought it to Bogdanovich’s attention in the years before his death. Determined to see his vision realized, Bogdanovich spent his final days working tirelessly to finalize the edit, soundtrack, color and score—creating an altogether different version of the previously released film. After his passing, longtime manager Oren Segal and companion Louise Stratten enlisted George Drakoulias, Frank Marshall and Adria Petty, who, alongside his family, worked for years to complete the restoration. Today, the film stands as a lighthearted throwback romantic comedy completed with “The Lubitsch Touch” the way the director intended it.

On the set of a playwright’s new project, a love triangle forms between his wife, her ex-lover and the call-girl-turned-actress cast in the production. Things go from messy to madcap when the world’s least discreet therapist, a philandering judge and a private investigator get involved.
