MARY AND MAX SCREENING AND Q & A
March 4th 2009 07:25
OSCAR WINNING CREATORS OF 'HARVIE KRUMPET' MAKE A SPECIAL APPEARANCE AT THE CREMORNE ORPHEUM TO TALK ABOUT THEIR DEBUT FEATURE CLAYMATION 'MARY AND MAX'
Join Academy Award winning Director Adam Elliot and Producer Melanie Coombs for a special advance screening of MARY AND MAX at The Cremorne Orpheum, Sydney on Thursday April 2 at 7.30pm.
MARY AND MAX is a simple tale of pen-friendship between two very different people; Mary Dinkle, a chubby lonely eight year old girl living in the suburbs of Melbourne, and Max Horovitz, a 44 year old, severely obese, Jewish man with Asperger's Syndrome living in the chaos of New York.
Spanning 20 years and 2 continents, Mary and Max's friendship survives much more than the average diet of life's ups and downs. Like Harvie Krumpet, Mary and Max is innocent but not naive, as it takes us on a journey that explores friendship, autism, taxidermy, psychiatry, alcoholism, where babies come from, obesity, kleptomania, sexual difference, trust, copulating dogs, religious difference, agoraphobia and much much more
MARY AND MAX is voiced by Academy Award winner Philip Seymour Hoffman who is joined by Australian talent, Academy Award Nominee Toni Collette (Little Miss Sunshine, In Her Shoes), Eric Bana (Romulus My Father, Chopper) and Barry Humphries.
At the Movies co-host Margaret Pomeranz will host a special Q & A with Adam Elliot and Melanie Coombs after the screening. If you would like to purchase a ticket to this special event, tickets are available online Really Long Link or at the Orpheum box office at $20 each.
Mary and Max will release nationally in Australia on April 9, 2009
