Patricia Clarkson Tonight at City Arts & Lectures

Academy Award-nominated actress and indie-movie queen Patricia Clarkson will be at City Art & Lectures tonight, answering questions about her work and career. You may know her from last years Vicky Christina Barcelona (scene shown here), or from her roles in The Station Agent, Far From Heaven or Goodnight and Good Luck. But our favorite screen appearance of hers by far was in 1998's High Art in which she hilariously portrayed Ally Sheedy's German lesbian lover Greta who had once acted for Fassbinder -- a clip of which was not available anywhere we could find it this morning. Buy tickets for tonight's appearance here.

Also, take note, Garrison Keillor is coming on Friday.
