‘Harvest’ to Return for Labor Day Weekend


Harvest, a film shot primarily in Madison, CT, that had a successful advance screening in town over the weekend, will return to Madison for Labor Day weekend.

Written and directed by former resident  Marc Meyers and produced by Meyers and Jody Girgenti, the film sold out its Friday, Saturday, and Sunday showings at the Madison Art Cinemas.

Shot in September 2008 at venues that include downtown Madison, the Post Road, Island Avenue, Middle Beach Road, and West Wharf, Harvest won Best American Independent Film at the 34th Cleveland International Film Festival, the Jury Prize and Audience Award for Best Feature Film at the Sacramento Film & Music Festival, and Best Connecticut Grown Film at the Connecticut Film Festival.

Harvest stars Academy Award-nominated Robert Loggia, Jack Carpenter, Arye Gross, Tony-winner Victoria Clark, and Academy Award-nominated Barbara Barrie, with Peter Friedman, Adriana Sevan, Kel O’Neill, Christine Evangelista, and Daniel Eric Gold.  The film tells the story of three generations of a family coming together one summer, around the eventual passing of the patriarch of the family, a WWII veteran. Gathered at the family home and in and around their beautiful shoreline town, years of resentment and betrayal surface, and the grandson does his part to hold them all together.

Madison Art Cinemas Owner/Operator Arnold Gorlick announced that Harvest will have a return engagement on Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday of Labor Day weekend. Tickets will be available at the box office or at the the cinemas’ website, www.madisonartcinemas.com.
