SCREENING IN THE BERNARD OSHER FOUNDATION AUDITORIUM
“Schimberg may have concocted a madly inventive thought experiment, but to say that ‘A Different Man’ merely deconstructs itself would miss how completely and satisfyingly it comes together. It’s a thing of beauty.”
112 minutes. Rated R. Directed by Aaron Schimberg. In English. DCP.
Aspiring actor Edward undergoes a radical medical procedure to drastically transform his appearance. But his new dream face quickly turns into a nightmare, as he loses out on the role he was born to play and becomes obsessed with reclaiming what was lost.
