Philosophy @ The Movies: My Dinner with Andre
November 1, 2023 @ 6:30 pm - 9:30 pm
Join the Philosophy Department for a viewing of My Dinner with Andre (1981)!
Old friends Wallace (Wallace Shawn) and Andre (Andre Gregory) haven’t seen each another in five years and agree to meet for dinner. Andre, a once well-known theater director, dropped out of the New York scene to travel the world, while Wallace stuck around, finding only mixed success as a playwright. As they sit down to eat, Andre launches into a series of fantastic stories from his time away, and Wallace can’t help but notice how different their worldviews have become.
- Rating: PG (Violent and Sexual Images)
