Harry Dean Stanton Fest: This Must Be the Place

Harry Dean Stanton Fest is delighted to welcome singer/songwriter/actor/icon Will Oldham as our closing night guest. In collaboration with David Byrne, Oldham composed and performed numerous songs on the This Must Be the Place soundtrack. He will join us for a Q&A before the screening to discuss his participation in the film.

At 50 years of age, former rock star Cheyenne (Sean Penn) still dresses the part and lives in Ireland with his wife (Frances McDormand) off the royalties and dividends from smart investments. The death of his estranged father brings Cheyenne back to New York, where he discovers the old man had one obsession: to hunt down a Nazi war criminal (Heinz Lieven). Cheyenne decides to pick up the quest where his late father left off, and sets out at his own pace on a journey across America.

Doors @ 6PM | Event @ 7PM
