Wild Nights With Emily

*CLOSING NIGHT FEATURE // DIRECTOR IN ATTENDANCE // MIDWEST PREMIERE* “Molly Shannon plays Emily Dickinson in the humorous drama WILD NIGHTS WITH EMILY. The poet’s persona, popularized since her death, became that of a reclusive spinster. This film explores her vivacious, irreverent side that was covered up for years.” -SXSW
