Curatorial statement:
Our favorite summer-time comedy! Nostalgic and wacky, with some of the best character actors ever - Paul Rudd, Amy Poehler, Michael Showalter, and Pittsfield-native Elizabeth Banks. Laugh until you spit out bug juice and leave wanting s'more, remember “It's always nice to go into town, even if it's only for a few hours!"
Film Synopsis:
The setting is Camp Firewood, the year 1981. It's the last day before everyone goes back to the real world, but there's still a summer's worth of unfinished business to resolve. At the center of the action is camp director Beth, who struggles to keep order while she falls in love with the local astrophysics professor. He is busy trying to save the camp from a deadly piece of NASA's Skylab which is hurtling toward earth. All that, plus: a dangerous waterfall rescue, love triangles, misfits, cool kids, and talking vegetable cans. The questions will all be resolved, of course, at the big talent show at the end of the day.ComedyPT1H37MR2025-08-27Janeane Garofalo
