Join us for opening remarks to kick off the symposium The Unreal Reality of Alan Rudolph: Conversations with the Filmmaker & Collaborators. We invite you to attend any or all of the symposium sessions.

Quirky, off kilter, stylishly romantic and filled with moments of wry humor, Alan Rudolph makes movies with dreamy eyed protagonists searching for love in all the wrong places that often mash up genres into something new and unique. He began his four decade career under the watchful eye of mentor Robert Altman, but he soon created a body of work that is clearly his own vision.
