Seminar: Something Wild

30mins
Body

DigBoston film critic Jake Mulligan will give an overview of the film in the context of Jonathan Demme's career.

Featuring a killer soundtrack and electric performances from Jeff Daniels, Melanie Griffith, and Ray Liotta, Something Wild, directed by oddball American auteur (and Coolidge Award honoree!) Jonathan Demme, is both a kinky comic thriller and a radiantly off-kilter love story.
