Ridgefield Playhouse Film Society Presents 'Leave,' 3/30

On Friday, March 30th at 7:30pm, the Ridgefield Playhouse Film Society's "Special Preview Screening" presents Leave, a independent film. With LEAVE, director Robert Celestino continues his fascination with the obsessive and extreme behavior of the creative individual.

Henry Harper (Rick Gomez) is a successful novelist who has it all. But after surviving a recent trauma, he finds himself haunted by a dream that terrifies him.

Convinced that the only way to really understand what the dream means is to write his way through it. So Henry decides to go to a remote second home to begin work on his next novel, a thriller. While on his way there he encounters a strangely familiar drifter (Frank John Hughes) who confronts him with information that threatens to turn everything he knows to be true, upside down.

Leave is directed and produced by the award winning filmmaker, Robert Celestino (Yonkers Joe, Mr. Vincent). Starring Rick Gomez (Band of Brothers, Transformers), Frank John Hughes (Band of Brothers, 24), Vinessa Shaw (3:10 to Yuma, Eyes Wide Shut), Ron Livingston (Office Space, Sex & The City) and multiple EMMY Award winner, Bryan Cranston (Breaking Bad, Drive). The film's Screenplay is written by Frank John Hughes, and the Story by Frank John Hughes and Rick Gomez.
