André Gregory has been a pillar of New York's avant-garde theater for more than half a century, and in his early nineties he reunites with longtime collaborators Larry Pine and Gerry Bamman to film scenes from Beckett's Endgame in Pine's Long Island home. Memory loss and limited mobility do not stop them. If My Dinner with André is a favorite, this tender, funny portrait of friendship is a must.
What to expect
An 88-minute documentary directed by Gregory's partner of 25 years, Cindy Kleine, and executive produced by Martin Scorsese. Expect rehearsal-room intimacy, Beckett's words and a love letter to experimental New York theater. The film moves between rehearsal, performance and conversation among three friends who have worked together for decades.
