Mr. & Mrs. Bridge
Q&A with director James Ivory and actor Kyra Sedgwick, moderated by Filmmaker Magazine's Vadim Rizov.
Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward star as a well-off couple who raise their children in the comfort of country club society, only to find their control over the family's fate slipping away. Daughter Ruth (Kyra Sedgwick) leaves for the artistic bohemia of New York, more conventional Carolyn marries the "wrong sort" of man, and brother Douglas (Robert Sean Leonard) joins the army. In an empty house, the Bridges' relationship shifts, exposing a wryly emotional portrait of a marriage as it rides the tumultuous changes of 1930's and '40's America.
