SHE'S THE BEST THING IN IT | Outfest Los Angeles LGBT Film Festival

With wit and nerve nearly equal to that of its subject, SHE’S THE BEST THING IN IT delves deep into the life of Tony Award–winning character actor Mary Louise Wilson (Broadway’s “Grey Gardens”) as she begins to teach her first acting class at age 79. Helmed by veteran screenwriter Ron Nyswaner (PHILADELPHIA) and featuring interviews with Oscar winners Melissa Leo and Frances McDormand, this charming documentary becomes more than just a tribute to a brilliant entertainer - it’s a fascinating, often uproarious, exploration of success, reinvention and what it means to perform truth. Dir. Ron Nyswaner | 2015, USA, 80 min. Sponsored by Sidley Austin LLP (Official). Tickets on sale 6/15 MEMBERSHIP: http://www.outfest.org/membership
