A Shepherdstown Film Society presentation

Eleanor the Great (2025)

Director: Scarlett Johansson

In Eleanor The Great, June Squibb brings to vivid life the witty and proudly troublesome 94-year-old Eleanor Morgenstein, who after a devastating loss, tells a tale that takes on a dangerous life of its own. Scarlett Johansson’s directorial debut is a comically poignant exploration of how the stories we hear become the stories we tell.

Post-film discussion: Facilitated discussion follows the film for those who wish to stay. Discussion leader TBA
