Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore, GFT, 19 and 22 March, 2017

Martin Scorsese’s often-overlooked fourth feature stars Ellen Burstyn in the Oscar-winning titular role of Alice. After her husband dies in a tragic accident, Alice has a garage sale, sells the house, and takes her precocious 11-year-old son (Alfred Lutter) on a road-trip to California, where she plans to restart her singing career. After a number of troubling incidents and unfortunate meetings on the road – including with Harvey Keitel’s seedy Ben – Alice begins working as a waitress in Mel’s Diner, living in a motel and pinching pennies when she meets and falls for David (Kris Kristofferson).
