The film is about Parker Posey paying a single mom (Fay Grim) who had a husband who went missing years ago. Back when they were together he had written a bunch of journals that everyone thought were made up adventures of his supposed secret life. It ends up that he wasn’t lying about his life before meeting Fay and now numerous government agencies from around the globe want the journals. So while the adventure starts in Queens, it moves all around Europe as we follow Fay trying to get back the journals and stay one step ahead of the people trying to steal what’s rightfully hers.

The film is written and directed by Hal Hartley and has a great cast - Parker Posey, Jeff Goldblum, Saffron Burrows, Liam Aiken and Elina Lowensohn.

“Fay Grim” is one of those films that's premiering on movie screens and home video at about the same time. It’ll also be on HDNet almost immediately so you can watch it for free (and in HD) if you get the channel on your cable or satellite system.

I’ll be posting an interview with Parker Posey and Hal Hartley later tonight so you can read their thoughts on the convergence of all the mediums of distribution.

“Fay Grim” arrives on May 18^th and you can see a bunch of images below. As always you can click on any image for a high resolution version.
