Bill Kennedy Memorial Screening: Yi Yi (一一)
In honor of the dearly missed Seattle movie lover Bill Kennedy, local cinemas Grand Illusion, Northwest Film Forum, and The Beacon will dedicate screenings in his name this weekend. To honor Kennedy's "preternatural good nature and grace, as well as his profound attunement to the human spirit through the silver screen," Film Forum's pick is Yi Yi (A One and a Two…) by the late Taiwanese master Edward Yang, which follows a middle-class family in Taipei over the course of one year, beginning with a wedding and ending with a funeral.
