"Richer and far more thought-provoking than a typical night at the movies" - Variety

"An Oscar worthy performance by Patrick Stewart." Film Journal

MATCH

 

GENRE:  Comedy/Drama

 

DIRECTOR:  Stephen Belber

 

PRODUCERS: Rick Rosenthal, Matt Ratner, David Permut

 

CAST:  Patrick Stewart (X-Men, Star Trek), Carla Gugino (Night At The Museum), Matthew Lillard (She's All That, Scooby Doo)

 

LOGLINE:  A Seattle couple (Carla Gugino and Matthew Lillard) travel to New York to interview former dancer Tobi (played with remarkable dexterity by Patrick Stewart) for research on a dissertation about the dance landscape of 1960s New York City. Now a beloved but somewhat hermitic ballet instructor, Tobi eventually warms to the strangers sitting in his Inwood apartment, regaling them with wild anecdotes from his colorful past. But when the line of questioning veers away from his career and becomes uncomfortably personal, the true motive behind the couple’s visit begins to emerge. Based on the Tony-nominated play of the same name, Director Stephen Belber weaves effortlessly between riotous wit and delicate poignancy, unraveling the story of three people forced to confront ideas of responsibility, artistic commitment, and love.
