The Holdovers - Behind the Camera at Cameo Cinema
The Holdovers - Behind the Camera
The Cameo Cinema’s series, BEHIND THE CAMERA, presents the runaway Holiday hit, “The Holdovers’ with the film’s screenwriter, David Hemingson in attendance. This series seeks to deepen the appreciation for the the creative journey that brings script to screen and share the collective effort necessary to bring stories to life.
THE HOLDOVERS represents a new step for David Hemingson, who, after a long and comfortable career in television, has now stepped into an entirely different arena—and found Oscar buzz to boot. Hemingson is an established producer and writer, known for Whiskey Cavalier (2019), Kitchen Confidential (2005), Don't Trust the B---- in Apartment 23 (2012) and Just Shoot Me! (1997). He was nominated for a Writers Guild of America (WGA) award for Kitchen Confidential.
About the film:
From acclaimed director Alexander Payne, THE HOLDOVERS follows a curmudgeonly instructor (Paul Giamatti) at a New England prep school who is forced to remain on campus during Christmas break to babysit the handful of students with nowhere to go. Eventually, he forms an unlikely bond with one of them -- a damaged, brainy troublemaker (newcomer Dominic Sessa) -- and with the school’s head cook, who has just lost a son in Vietnam (Da’Vine Joy Randolph).
