Inside Llewyn Davis

Monday 30 September

Inside Llewyn Davis follows a week in the life of a young folk singer as he navigates the Greenwich Village folk scene of 1961. Llewyn Davis (Oscar Isaac) is at a crossroads. Guitar in tow, huddled against the New York City winter, he is struggling to make it as a musician against seemingly insurmountable obstacles - some of them of his own making. Living at the mercy of both friends and strangers, scaring up what work he can find, Llewyn's misadventures take him from the baskethouses of the Village to an empty Chicago club - on an odyssey to audition for a music mogul - and back again. Brimming with music performed by Isaac, Justin Timberlake, and Carey Mulligan (as Llewyn's married Village friends), as well as Marcus Mumford and Punch Brothers.

Screening of Inside Llewyn Davis was followed by a Q&A with Joel Coen, Ethan Coen, Oscar Isaac, John Goodman, T Bone Burnett, Bruno Delbonnel, Jess Gonchor, Mary Zophres, Susan Bode,Peter Kurland, Greg Orloff. Q&A was moderated by Peter Travers.
