HELD OVER FROM FILM FESTIVAL!!
104 min. in English
Rated:PG-13
Directed by: Nicholas Hytner
Starring: Maggie Smith, Alex Jennings
Starring the forever enchanting and talented Maggie Smith and adapted from the London stage play of the same name, The Lady in the Van tells the true story of the relationship between playwright/author Alan Bennett and the singular Miss Shepherd, a woman of uncertain origins who 'temporarily' parks her van in Bennett's London driveway and proceeds to live there for fifteen years. Equal parts engrossing and hysterical, The Lady in the Van follows the unlikely friendship of the two characters and how each can learn a thing or two from the other.
"A delicately written, boisterously performed movie about the difficult people who dare us to care about them." ~Los Angeles Times
