The American Cinematheque is holding a sneak preview of Frank Darabont's THE MIST on Monday, Nov. 19, 2007 at the Egyptian Theatre at 7:30 pm. Three-time Oscar-nominee Frank Darabont (THE GREEN MILE, THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION) reunites with horror-master Stephen King to write and direct an adaptation of the author's original short story. Following a violent thunderstorm, artist David Drayton and a small-town community come under vicious attack from creatures prowling in a thick and unnatural mist. Local rumors point to an experiment called "The Arrowhead Project," conducted at a nearby top-secret military base, but questions as to the origins of the deadly vapor are secondary to the group's overall chances for survival. Retreating to a local supermarket, Drayton and the survivors must face off against each other before taking a united stand against an enemy they cannot even see! With a cast including Oscar Award-winning actress Marcia Gay Harden, Thomas Jane, Andre Braugher, Alexa Davalos (FEAST OF LOVE), William Sadler (THE GREEN MILE) and Laurie Holden. A discussion with cast and crew will follow the screening. For more information, visit www.egyptiantheatre.com.
