SUPPORT THE GIRLS

September 21 – 27
SUPPORT THE GIRLS

Lisa Conroy (Regina Hall) is the last person you’d expect to find in a highway-side ‘sports bar with curves’,— but as general manager at Double Whammies, she’s come to love the place and its customers. An incurable den mother, she nurtures and protects her girls fiercely–but over the course of one trying day, her optimism is battered from every direction…Double Whammies sells a big, weird American fantasy, but what happens when reality pokes a bunch of holes in it?
Dir: Andrew Bujalski / 2018 / US / 94 min

“The sharp-elbowed humor is laced with aching tenderness, tightrope-tense frustrations over money and love, and an underlying mix of social pathologies that bubbles through the show-biz surfaces” – Richard Brody, New Yorker

“[Regina] Hall’s performance – tender, tough, empathetic, controlled – crumples from tears to laughter in a blink. It’s phenomenal.” – Amy Nicholson, Variety

“Most of these episodes are funny; all of them feel genuine. [Andrew] Bujalski has an incredible ability to take situations that would be sitcomish in someone else’s hands and make them feel genuine and character-driven.” – Brian Tallerico, RogerEbert.com
