Synopsis |
|
Theatrical producer and director
Hans Canosa makes his feature
filmmaking debut with the comedy
Alma Mater, written by first-time
screenwriter Gabrielle Zevin. Set in
Cambridge, MA, during 1963, Arthur
Knight (Will Lyman) is an associate
professor who claims to have been
John F. Kennedy's roommate during
his undergrad years at Harvard.
Arthur's wife Gwen (soap opera
actress Cady McClain), deals with
her crumbling marriage by modeling
herself after First Lady Jackie
Kennedy. She believes her husband is
having an affair with his student,
aspiring writer Molly Thayer (Kate
Super), but he really has been
engaged in a relationship with his
teaching assistant, William Anderson
(Alexander Chaplin from Spin City).
Eventually, the interwoven lives of
the Knights and the students come
together in the aftermath of JFK's
assassination. |
