Science On Screen: The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou

with Guest Speaker Prof. Baylor Fox-Kemper

An initiative of the COOLIDGE CORNER THEATRE

With major support from the ALFRED P. SLOAN FOUNDATION

Prior to the film, Baylor Fox-Kemper, Professor of Earth, Environmental and Planetary Sciences at Brown University, will give a presentation entitled “The Real-Life Aquatic with Sea Level, Heating, and Acidification (and What You Can Do)”

Renowned oceanographer Steve Zissou (Bill Murray) has sworn vengeance upon the rare shark that devoured a member of his crew. In addition to his regular team, he is joined on his boat by Ned (Owen Wilson), a man who believes Zissou to be his father, and Jane (Cate Blanchett), a journalist pregnant by a married man. They travel the sea, all too often running into pirates and, perhaps more traumatically, various figures from Zissou’s past, including his estranged wife, Eleanor (Anjelica Huston).

Doors open for admissions 30 minutes prior to screening.
