The Bozeman Film Festival ends February with Joel and Ethan Coen's latest film, Inside Llewyn Davis, screening Thursday, February 27^th at 7:30 pm in the Emerson's Crawford Theatre.

The film follows a week in the life of young folk singer Llewyn Davis (Oscar Isaac, The Bourne Legacy) as he navigates the Greenwich Village folk scene of 1961. Huddled against the unforgiving New York winter, guitar in tow, he is struggling to make it as a musician against seemingly insurmountable obstacles-some of them of his own making. On an odyssey to audition for a music mogul, his misadventures take him from the baskethouses of the Village to an empty Chicago club - and back again.

The movie features music performed by Isaac, Justin Timberlake and Carey Mulligan (as Llewyn's married Village friends), as well as Marcus Mumford and Punch Brothers. As in O Brother, Where Art Thou? Inside Llewyn Davis is infused with the transportive sound of another time and place. An epic on an intimate scale, it represents the Coen Brothers' fourth collaboration with multiple-Grammy® and Academy Award®-winning music producer T Bone Burnett. Marcus Mumford is associate music producer.

 The Sunday Times' Bryan Appleyard calls the Coen brothers "the greatest filmmakers on the planet," and filmcomment's Jonathan Romney says Inside Llewyn Davis is "the most moving film the Coens have ever made." Clearly, it's one you don't want to miss!

Rated R, the film runs one hour and forty-five minutes.

 Tickets are $8/General and $7/Student & Senior, available at Cactus Records and in the Emerson's lobby one hour before the film. Enjoy a no-host social hour from 6:30 – 7:30 pm. For more information visit bozemanfilmfestival.org - and Keep 'em Flickering!
