FRANK LANGELLA AND DAVID EDELSTEIN AT SARAH LAWRENCE COLLEGE
I feel so lucky to have seen such a hero of American drama in person at my school. Being interviewed by the renowned film critic and NPR personality, David Edelstein.
The evening started with a screening of Langella's latest starring role in a film called Starting Out in the Evening, a really beautiful and interesting film. I recommend it! Langella's great sense of humor was immediately apparent when, commenting on a small part of the film where the audience glimpses his private parts, he opened with, "Thank you all for coming out in this weather to see my penis!"
Langella's graceful comedic flare continued throughout the night (he and Edelstein had a 'mock' flirtation on stage), but he also came across as a man who has really thought about life in all of its intricacies. His wisdom was helpful to everyone, and he exuded modesty as well as honor. What an amazing man!
Nina and I had a great time :D
