Martin Christopher

Debut feature director Jay Berman (Christopher Guest), steers cast and crew through a typically tumultuous independent film Home for Purim, an intimate period drama about a Jewish family's turbulent reunion on the occasion of the dying matriarch's favorite holiday. When Internet-generated rumors begin circulating that three of Purim's stars -- faded luminary Marilyn Hack (Catherine O'Hara), journeyman actor and former hot dog pitchman Victor Allan Miller (Harry Shearer), and ingenue Callie Webb (Parker Posey) -- may be perpetrating Award-worthy performances, a rumble of excitement rattles the cast. Once 'Hollywood Now' anchors Chuck Porter (Fred Willard) and Cindy Martin (Jane Lynch) pick up the buzz, Award fever infects the entire production. Unit publicist Corey Taft (John Michael Higgins), talent agent Morley Orfkin (Eugene Levy), and producer Whitney Taylor Brown (Jennifer Coolidge) all smell the sudden potential for a sleeper hit. As does Sunfish Classics President Martin Gibb (Ricky Gervais), who suggests some last-minute changes to the film that he feels will broaden the film's appeal. Meanwhile, Purim's screenwriters, Lane Iverson (Michael McKean) and Philip Koontz (Bob Balaban) grow steadily more horrified as they watch the first film adaptation of their work diverge from their original story. As the hopeful Purim team careens toward the end of production and the upcoming Award season, tenuous relationships and brittle dreams play out in unexpected ways...

Artists need communities. They need someone to compete with, someone to support them, someone to critique their work, someone to respond to, and someone to get a beer and commiserate with. www.livefrommemphis.com/rozelleartistsguild The Rozelle Artists Guild had its roots with a group of Memphis College of Art students who would get together to keep each other company while working on projects for school, but it has evolved into something bigger. Their collaborative philosophy extends beyond their own group, as they have worked on projects with Live from Memphis, among others. Named for its first home in a formerly abandoned warehouse at 822 Rozelle Street, the Guild is currently searching for a new space that will encourage artists of all stripes to discover the joys of collaborative creation.
