Featuring Philip Seymour Hoffman, Amy Ryan, John Ortiz, Daphne Rubin-Vega

On September 15th, The Learning Annex film series continues with a great new film followed by a Q&A with the entire cast of “Jack Goes Boating,” including Academy Award winner and Tony Award winner Philip Seymour Hoffman.

Set in the midst of working-class New York City life, Philip Seymour Hoffman plays the role of Jack, a limo driver who has vague dreams of landing a job with the MTA and has a mild obsession with a reggae song. He spends most of his time hanging out with his best friend and fellow driver, Clyde (John Ortiz) and Clyde’s wife Lucy (Daphne Rubin-Vega). The couple set Jack up with Connie (Amy Ryan), a co-worker of Lucy’s at Dr. Bob’s Funeral Home in Brooklyn. Being with Connie inspires Jack to learn to cook, pursue a new career, and take swimming lessons from Clyde. As Jack and Connie cautiously circle commitment, Clyde and Lucy’s marriage begins to disintegrate. From there, we watch as each couple must come face to face with the inevitable path of their relationships.

At this exclusive Learning Annex event, you will be part of a private screening of Jack Goes Boating before it’s released to the general public on September 17th, then you will get to participate in a Q&A with the 4 stars of a film, as moderated by Rolling Stone film critic Peter Travers.

Don’t miss this exciting evening with the cast of Jack Goes Boating.

Your ticket price includes the private movie screening as well as the Q&A with Philip Seymour Hoffman and the full cast. This event is not included in the Learning Annex Gold Membership.
