A REAL PAIN at the Drexel Theatre!

Join us as we get together to see the comedy-drama, A REAL PAIN! The film stars Kieren Culkin and Jesse Eisenberg (who also wrote/directs) and follows a pair of mismatched cousins as they travel to Poland to honor their grandmother. Here’s a description, trailer and plan for this event:

DESCRIPTION: The film follows mismatched cousins who reunite for a tour through Poland to honor their beloved grandmother. The adventure takes a turn when the odd couple's old tensions resurface against the backdrop of their family history. A Real Pain is written/directed by Jesse Eisenberg, who also stars alongside Kieran Culkin, Will Sharpe, Jennifer Grey, Kurt Egyiawan, Liza Sadovy, and Daniel Oreskes. Emma Stone produced the film under her Fruit Tree banner.

BUZZ: The film premiered at this year’s Sundance Film Festival where it won Best Screenplay and also screened at the Zurich Film Festival! Early Oscar predictions call Kieran Culkin the man to beat for Best Supporting Actor at next year’s Oscars! The film is currently earning a 91% positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes, which says: "Led by a scene-stealing turn from Kieran Culkin, A Real Pain is a powerfully funny, emotionally resonant dramedy that finds writer-director-star Jesse Eisenberg playing to his strengths on either side of the camera."

PLAN: Purchase your ticket for the 4:30pm showing and we’ll meet inside the theater lobby between 4:00 and 4:15pm. Advance ticket purchase not required for this theater but we’ll have a big group so early arrival is recommended. When you purchase your ticket, be sure to mention you’re with the Movie Group for discounted admission. Immediately following the movie, don’t miss joining for dinner at the nearby Rusty Bucket! Parking Pro Tip: Park in the lot at Brassica or on the street between the theater and the restaurant and your car will be close by at the end of the night!

Look forward to seeing you there, Dan
