Pedro Pascal leads writer-director Tony Gilroy's new drama as Alex, a cellist who fled a Chicago orchestra and a manic ex played by Olivia Wilde to record Hollywood scores in Los Angeles. The soundtrack features nine leading film musicians, and the cast adds Eva Victor, Hank Azaria and Will Arnett. If the Lincoln Center premiere shows were out of reach, the Queens screening is the easier way in.
What to expect
The screening runs 124 minutes in MoMI's theater in Astoria. Seating is general admission at the museum and tickets are picked up at the admissions desk, so arrive with time to spare before the lights go down.
Good to know
- Take the M or R to Steinway St, or the N or W to 36 Av, and walk a few blocks to 35th Avenue.
- MoMI screenings are general admission, so early arrival gets better seats.
- Pick up tickets at the museum's admissions desk when you arrive.
- The admission price can be applied toward a same-day MoMI membership.
- Searchlight Pictures is releasing the film, so this is an early look before it opens widely.
