The Livingston Film Series presents a free public screening of Ivan Doig: Landscapes of a Western Mind at 7pm on Thursday, April 13 in the Dulcie Theatre at the Shane Lalani Center for the Arts in Livingston.
Ivan Doig: Landscapes of a Western Mind is a new documentary from Montana PBS and 4:08 Productions offering an intimate look at the life and work of Ivan Doig, the iconic Montana author whose novels and memoirs depict a rugged and authentic American West.
Actor, former MSU adjunct professor, and part-time Montana resident Bill Pullman narrates the film. Other creative contributors to the film include co-producer/writer Sabrina Lee, editor/writer Tony Hale, and director of photography Jeff Dougherty. A moving score composed by Sean Eden is complemented by original music inspired by Doig’s work from John Floridis. The film includes conversations with MSU President Waded Cruzado, MSU Professor and Special Collections Librarian Jan Zauha, UMW Professor Emeritus Alan Weltzien, Carol Doig (Doig’s spouse and work partner) as well as interviews with personal friends that bring Doig to life in this cinematic biographical account.
Following the screening, executive producer Aaron Pruitt will moderate a panel discussion and Q&A with the film’s producers as well as others involved with the film.
The event is co-hosted by Montana PBS, Montana State University Library, and The MSU Ivan Doig Center. To view the trailer, visit ivandoigfilm.org. RSVP to the event on the Montana PBS Facebook page.
Doors open at 6:30; screenings begin at 7:00 pm. Admission is free; donations are gratefully accepted. For more information, please visit theshanecenter.org.
