Harry Dean Stanton Festival presents “Fool for Love”
The seventh annual Harry Dean Stanton Festival pays tribute to the Kentucky-born actor and musician whose 60-plus year acting career has included roles in dozens of films and television series.
This 1985 drama directed by Robert Altman is based on a screenplay by Sam Shepard, who also wrote the screenplay and stars in the film alongside Kim Basinger. The plot follows a woman hiding out at an old motel in the Southwest, an old flame and childhood friend who shows up and threatens to metaphorically and at times, literally, drag her back into the life she had fled from, and a secret involving an old man who lives near the motel.
