REGISTER FOR FREE TICKETS HERE
In celebration of Women’s History Month, you’re invited to a special 30th anniversary screening of the 1993 comedy-drama “Household Saints” with director Nancy Savoca in attendance! Savoca will participate in a Q&A with the audience following the screening.
Director, screenwriter and producer Nancy Savoca began her career working with Jonathan Demme on “Something Wild” and “Married to the Mob” before making her feature debut with the 1989 indie film “True Love,” which won the Grand Jury Prize at the Sundance Film Festival.
Subsequent work includes “Dogfight” (1991), starring River Phoenix; the HBO drama “If These Walls Could Talk” (1996), an anthology film about abortion starring Demi Moore, Sissy Spacek and Cher; and episodes of multiple TV series including “Murder One,” “Third Watch” and “The Mind of the Married Man.”

HOUSEHOLD SAINTS | 1993 | DIRECTOR: Nancy Savoca | WITH: Tracey Ullman, Vincent D’Onofrio, Lili Taylor, Michael Imperioli, Illeana Douglas | RUNNING TIME: 2H 4M | RATED R for two scenes of sexuality | KINO LORBER RELEASING | 4K DCP projection
Nancy Savoca’s star-studded indie gem Household Saints is a chronicle of a spirited Italian-American New York family that perfectly balances humor, tragedy, and pathos. Joseph Santangelo (Vincent D’Onofrio) is a butcher with a wicked sense of humor who “wins” his wife Catherine (a stellar Tracey Ullman) in a pinochle game.
Over the protests of his mother (Judith Malina) who talks to ghosts and makes deals with saints, Joseph marries Catherine. When the old lady dies, her spirit is channeled into her granddaughter Teresa who yearns to serve God.
Perfectly embodying a modernday Bernadette, Lili Taylor imbues Teresa with a mix of dedicated innocence and naïveté. Executive produced by Jonathan Demme, with memorable performances from Michael Imperioli, Michael Rispoli and Victor Argo, Household Saints showcases a unique voice in 1990s independent filmmaking.
There will be a reception with light bites and drinks. Admission is free but registration required at link above.
