Film Club screens local thriller Buster's Mal Heart Description:
Buster's Mal Heart is a psychological thriller with so many twists and turns I am hesitant to try and summarize it, lest I befuddle the audience or accidentally give away the plot. The film stars Rami Malek in the titular role, a hotel employee who encounters a conspiracy-obsessed drifter, and afterwards must question whether or not the conspiracy (or anything) is real. The sophomore effort from director Sarah Adina Smith, Buster's Mal Heart premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival in September 2016.

Normally a two year time gap is too short to qualify for historic film status, but Buster’s Mal Heart has local significance: the movie was almost entirely filmed in Kalispell and the surrounding area, and includes pivotal scenes at locations such as The Outlaw Inn and Johnson-Gloschat Funeral Home. Many local residents were hired as extras, and it is certainly a novelty to see our little hamlet brought to life on the big screen.

Conrad Mansion Assistant Director Brit Clark, a production assistant during the filming of Buster’s Mal Heart, will introduce the movie and answer audience questions.

There is no charge for the film, and donations will be accepted to help defray the cost of acquiring and showing the films. The movie and popcorn are free; wine, beer, pop and water will be for sale. Seating is provided, but film fans can bring their own floor pillows, portable chairs, or whatever is comfortable for viewing the film.
