SUMMARY:Lily Tomlin: The Search for Signs of Intelligent Life on the Universe
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, July 24\, 1:00 p.m. | Actress Lily Tomlin will join us IN PERSON to introduce the new restoration of THE SEARCH FOR SIGNS OF INTELLIGENT LIFE ON THE UNIVERSE and take a few questions from the audience before the film! \nJane Wagner created this one-woman show for Lily Tomlin in 1985 so that audiences could appreciate not just Tomlin’s comic timing but also her extraordinary acting talent. Tomlin inhabits 12 characters in this tour-de-force anchored by bag lady Trudy\, an everywoman for all time. As Tomlin explained onstage at the restoration’s world premiere\, “Trudy is a philosopher: the wise fool.” Asked by Jane Fonda\, her comrade-in-arms and the evening’s moderator\, if she sees any signs of intelligent life in the universe at the moment\, Tomlin replied\, “I see a lot of intelligence\, but we apply that intelligence so stupidly.”  IndieCollect created this new 4K digital restoration by combining scans of the 108-minute original 35mm negative and filling in with 9 minutes of the best surviving 117-min 35mm print. All scanning was done in 6.5K to produce a true 4K version.
