Ileana Douglas at The Lambs, Connecticut in the Movies

Author talk with Illeana Douglas: "Connecticut in the Movies, From Dream Houses to Dark Suburbia." Recorded at The Lambs, April 10, 2024. Illeana Douglas has long been known for shining new light on forgotten films. Now the celebrated actress and film historian turns her focus to a heretofore unrecognized brand: the Connecticut movie! Told from the passionate perspective of the author who grew up here, and filled with behind-the-scenes stories as well as her own personal snapshots of the places where these films were made, Illeana takes the reader on a cinematic road trip through Hollywood history and Connecticut geography, bringing the breezy, intimate, knowledgeable writing style acclaimed by reviewers of her first book, I Blame Dennis Hopper (2015). Interviewed by Honorary Lamb Foster Hirsch. The Lambs® is America’s oldest professional theatrical organization, founded in 1874, and not a public restaurant and theme bar.
