CAT PERSON Filmmaker Susanna Fogel in Conversation with Director-Writer-Actor Alex Winter October 13 at the Laemmle NoHo.

October 3, 2023 by Jordan Deglise Moore

Join us Thursday, October 13th at 7pm for the special screening of Cat Person at Laemmle’s NoHo 7 followed by a conversation between award-winning filmmaker Susanna Fogel and director-writer-actor Alex Winter.

Susanna Fogel is a director, screenwriter, and novelist. Most recently, she wrapped production on Winner, a feature biopic of American whistleblower Reality Winner starring Emilia Jones, Connie Britton, Zach Galifianakis, and Kathryn Newton. Her prior feature film work includes co-writing the hit comedy Booksmart and directing and co-writing Lionsgate’s The Spy Who Dumped Me. On the television side, her directing credits include the pilot episode of the HBO Max series “The Flight Attendant,” for which she won a DGA Award and was nominated for an Emmy, the first three episodes of National Geographic’s recent WWII limited series A Small Light, the pilot of the Amazon series “The Wilds,” and episodes of Gillian Flynn’s remake of “Utopia.”

Alex Winter entered show business as a child actor with co-starring roles on Broadway in The King & I and Peter Pan, and came to prominence in movies such as The Lost Boys and the wildly popular Bill & Ted franchise. As a filmmaker, Winter’s narrative features include the cult classic Freaked and the critically acclaimed Fever, which screened at Cannes. Winter is the founder of Trouper Productions, which services his documentary work. In 2020, Winter released two new documentary feature films; Showbiz Kids, premiered on HBO to widespread critical acclaim, garnering a Critics Choice nomination. Followed by Zappa, the first all-access documentary on the life and times of Frank Zappa. The highly anticipated Bill & Ted Face the Music, opened in August 2020 as the number one movie both in the U.S. and the UK, and is Certified Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes. Winter just completed his next feature documentary, The YouTube Effect, which had its world premiere at Tribeca and went on to a sold-out theatrical run and is now being released worldwide on digital.

Cat Person is a genre-bending thriller which after having its world premiere out of the 2023 Sundance Film Festival has become one of the most anticipated films of the Fall. The film is an all-too-relatable modern-day dating story that rapidly turns into a boldly provocative psychological thriller questioning the limit between fantasy and reality. Cat Person is a smart, darkly funny conversation starter.
