The Roger Ebert's Film Festival (Ebertfest) announced the addition of three films for the 2025 festival, highlighted by a special 40th anniversary screening of Susan Seidelman's classic 'Desperately Seeking Susan'. This milestone screening will include a Q&A session with the director and lead actress, Rosanna Arquette. Originally released in 1985, the film was a commercial success grossing $55.3 million and earned critical acclaim, including awards and nominations. Additional films in the lineup are 'His Three Daughters' and 'Touch', enhancing the diverse offerings of this year's celebration of cinema.
What I liked in 'Desperately Seeking Susan' was the cheerful way it bopped around New York, introducing us to unforgettable characters, played by good actors.
We are thrilled to welcome Susan Seidelman and Rosanna Arquette to Champaign to celebrate this trailblazing film that has influenced many.
